Download or read book Fairy Tales written by and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Artist Petra Collins and actress Alexa Demie create nine erotic stories in a contemporary reimagining of a fairy tale book. Fairy Tales is an erotic folklore of short stories shot by Petra Collins starring Alexa Demie. The pair created the concept and text collaboratively. Alexa portrays nine characters that embody new stories they would have liked to see. As children, Petra and Alexa were both enamored with fairy tales, which provided an escape from their own painful realities. Each of the nine tales are set in unique spaces, ranging from suburban homes and parking lots to fantastical sets. Petra and Alexa’s chapters of elves, mermaids, sirens, water sprites, fallen angels, fairies, witches, and banshees blend their own stories with retold fairy tales. The photos combine elements of camp, prosthetics, and shibari in a surreal update to the imagery of the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Anderson, Charles Perrault, and others.

Download or read book Fig written by Sarah Elizabeth Schantz and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An NPR Best Book of 2015 Love and sacrifice intertwine in this brilliant debut of rare beauty about a girl dealing with her mother’s schizophrenia and her own mental illness. Fig’s world lies somewhere between reality and fantasy. But as she watches Mama slowly come undone, it becomes hard to tell what is real and what is not, what is fun and what is frightening. To save Mama, Fig begins a fierce battle to bring her back. She knows that her daily sacrifices, like not touching metal one day or avoiding water the next, are the only way to cure Mama. The problem is that in the process of a daily sacrifice, Fig begins to lose herself as well, increasingly isolating herself from her classmates and engaging in self-destructive behavior that only further sets her apart. Spanning the course of Fig’s childhood from age six to nineteen, this deeply provocative novel is more than a portrait of a mother, a daughter, and the struggle that comes with all-consuming love. It is an acutely honest and often painful portrayal of life with mental illness and the lengths to which a young woman must go to handle the ordeals—real or imaginary—thrown her way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: by Michael Paul Ladanyi and Christine E. Laine(Illustrations and cover by C. E. Laine)An astounding illustrated collection of poems by two-time Pushcart Prize Nominees Michael Paul Ladanyi and Christine E. Laine (24 pages).Poet Cheryl Snell, says... "I read this lovely book over the weekend. It is a wonderful duet, both voices sure, distinctive, true. Intensely visual, the work is deepened with the photographs and the emotional center of separate observations is bull's eyed by each poet, every time. Among the startling and memorable images, there is dark humor and a dare to have courage as we tremble on the precipice in a time of ash and sin. I recommend Suburban Fairy Tales of Brilliant Ash and Blue Sins."
