A faerie truth is the kind of truth that looks like nonsense to the clever and folly to the powerful—until everything else crumbles and it’s the only thing left standing.
Faerie Truths: Tales to Disturb Us Awake
by Rose Guildenstern
This book is an intervention. A collection of thirty tales reshaped, reforged, and restored to their original potency—not as relics of the past, but as urgent messages for the present. Some will make you laugh. Some will gnaw at the edges of your mind. Some might unsettle you so thoroughly that you’ll want to fling the book across the room. (That’s fine. Just pick it back up when you’re ready.)
Inside, you’ll find talking beasts and treacherous bargains, hungry forests and broken promises. But more than that, you’ll find mirrors—thirty different ways to see yourself, your world, and the precarious path we all walk. These are stories that know the darkness we live in. And more importantly, they know the way through.
