This first collected edition of Ethel Carnie Holdsworth's fairy tales contributes significantly to both our knowledge of her work and the history of the fairy tale as a genre. As a working-class woman writer, her stories represent work, class, and gender in ways that are startlingly different to what is found in many well-known fairy tales. Speaking out of the experiences of her class and gender, her tales imagine magical worlds and heroes and heroines whose goals move far beyond the individualist success found in traditional fairy tales.
