Politically Correct Bedtime Stories: Modern Tales for Our Life and Times Garner, James Finn
002542730X / 9780025427303 Good.
Hardcover. Small hardcover with dustjacket, 7th printing published 1994 by Macmillan. Front jacket flap is creased. Light wear. Very clean; no marks; pages bright; binding tight. 79 pages. Language: English. 'Garner proposes to create meaningful literature that is totally free from bias and purged from the influence of its flawed cultural past. The results are extremely funny. Updated to account for modern political sensibilities, these revisionist folktales reflect wit and an engaging knack for irony. In Little Red Riding Hood, Grandma exacts her feminist revenge on the woodchopper, who assumes that womyn and wolves can't solve their own problems without a man's help. In The Frog Prince, the princess, now an eco-feminist warrior, discovers that her dream frog is not a prince, but a real-estate developer. In other tales, Rapunzel becomes a self-reliant coffee-house singer and the Three Little Pigs armed guerrillas, while cultural imperialists such as The Big Bad Wolf and Goldilocks get what has been coming to them for centuries. The author strikes just the right tone here: clever, with more than a touch of self-awareness....'--Publishers Weekly, 1994. Keywords: humor, humour, parody, satire, fairy tale, fairytale, adaptation, PC, political correctness, 1990s.
