Princess Pourquoi
'Princess Pourquoi' Summary
The Princess Pourquoi is a collection of five feminist fairy tales, each centered around a unique princess who challenges traditional gender roles and societal expectations. The first story, "Princess Pourquoi," features a princess cursed with a mind, destined to be ostracized for her intelligence. The other stories explore themes such as female ambition, the pursuit of knowledge, and the power of choice. The collection uses humor and subversive storytelling to highlight the unfairness of societal norms, the consequences of silencing women, and the importance of embracing individuality. The stories are not only entertaining but also thought-provoking, offering a fresh perspective on classic fairy tale tropes and encouraging readers to question conventional narratives about gender, intelligence, and power.Book Details
