Celebrating all ethnicities, genders and sexualities, this collection of 17 short stories takes new and familiar fairy tales and reimagines them in contemporary and inclusive light. The collection was originally published in Hungary, where the inclusion of LGBTQ+ characters sparked political controversy. It quickly became an important symbol in the fight for equality and against discrimination in Hungary and enjoyed a vast wave of support both within and outside the country.
