The two young woman are both cursed, one through magic and another through a disease that is slowly killing her. Together they try to change their fates and break their curses.
I thought that this was an unique take on this classic fairy tale and I loved the references to the Disney version, the Brothers Grimm version (Little Briar Rose), the Italian 17th century version (Sun, Moon, and Talia), and a few more. Zinnia's knowledge about fairy tales help her to navigate the world she is thrown into and helps her to save Primrose and herself. It's a good short story and it's a good story to listen too.
