Summary:What happens when fairy tales are seen through the lens of modern society? Gifted cartoonist Loïc Hsiao, who specializes in reinterpreting traditional fairy tales on single-panel comics, first published this comic series in 1985. It consists of two parts – Classic fairy tales from the West and traditional children’s stories from the East, and sold an impressive 500,000 copies in Taiwan.
What would happen if fairy tales characters found themselves in today’s world? What if Prince Charming rode up on his white stallion only to find that Sleeping Beauty had insomnia? What if Cinderella’s pumpkin-carriage broke down on the way to the ball? What if the apple that Snow White chomped down on was a computer, rather than a red fruit?
