What we learn from fairy tales is that things do not turn out so well for the Grimm Girl. Her pain and her losses are not hers alone, however, but remain recognizable to all women through the ages. The poems in this collection explore various challenges -- both physical and emotional -- of moving from girlhood to womanhood in 20th century America, a contemporary world, not so far removed from the brothers Grimm.
