Urgh. That was a bore. Awful to read and so much misogyny. Out of the 89 stories, I knew 8 going in. And none of them were nearly as good as the retellings and adaptations I read before.
I’m a bit tempted to read the Grimm’s stories in the same collection - because at least those are interesting. We’ll see. Because right now I lost all respect for Andersen.
