Look, Sarah Beth Durst is being awesome discussing The Six Swans!
I was just thinking how you tend to kind of develop standards for reading as you grow older. I remember reading this fairytale when I was younger - at no point did it ever occur to me to question any of the elements that didn't make sense. Although I guess part of it is that it was a fairytale, I don't tend to use a whole lot of critical thinking with them. I may have thought it a little strange as a novel.
Has anyone ever written a book about a therapist who treats fairytale characters? I think it'd be pretty awesome. I mean there's issues galore to sort through.
