Selected Tales by Jacob Grimm, Jacob Grimm, Wilhelm Grimm
Can't say I understand why anyone ever thought the Grimm tales good.
They're meh at best and extremely repetitive. Almost every story is about a "husband and wife who had long wished for a child, but in vain" and then they make stupid bargains to get said child, someone either loses a limb or goes blind but fear not, everything always magically rights itself in the end and the bad guys get what they deserve... *yawns*
oh and also, I'm thinking the Grimm brothers were hella hungry when they wrote these cuz honestly food (especially fruits) is mentioned in like, every story.
In short:
Fruits, God, Gold, Babies and lost limbs.
Le Sigh.🤷🏻♀️
