Briar Rose (Paperback, 1st Pbk. Ed)

Called a "master" by The New York Times Book Review, Robert Coover has been one of the most important figures in postmodern literature for over twenty years. In Briar Rose, he puts his unique spin on one of the oldest and best-known of all fairy tales, Sleeping Beauty.

Briar Rose tells of a prince trapped in the briars; a sleeping beauty who cannot awaken, dreaming of a succession of kissing princes; and the old spell-casting fairy who inhabits the princess's dreams, regaling her with legends of other sleeping beauties and trying to imagine the nature of human desire.
