A truly varied and innovative collection, branded Lucio Angelini. Next to apparently traditional fairy tales, in which the author had fun practicing the so-called “reversal of the reader's expectations” , we find ironic reinterpretations of famous fairy tales or fairy tales in which the real and the surreal intertwine in a particularly liberating mix . Particularly interesting are some “meta-tales”, in which the author does not hesitate to highlight typical “ingredients” or “clichés” or “construction mechanisms” of traditional fairy tales.
