The Darker Side of Fairytales with Kirsty Logan, Dumbarton Library
22 February, 2018, 7 p.m. – 9p.m.
Fairy tales are pretty stories with happy endings meant for children, right? Well, not these ones! Perhaps we’re more familiar with the tame storybook versions, but fairy tales were originally shared between adults, and are crammed full of blood, violence, sex, mystery and betrayal. Join award-winning novelist and short story writer Kirsty Logan for an exploration of the darker side of the tales we think we know.
