Aug 07, 2019The best-case scenario for readers is to read SNOW, GLASS, APPLES without thinking too much about the more familiar versions of the Snow White tale. The readers' experience will be sharper " more focused if this version is engaged on its own terms. The most poignant passages are subtle. The contrast in skin complexions, an undying heart, or the mysterious scars on the king's body become powerful signifiers in SNOW, GLASS, APPLES. And then, a single snowflake on the pale cheek of a princess will haunt you forever. 5/5! Read Full Review

Gorgeously rendered by Colleen Doran, the pages look like macabre stained glass panels. Love Neil's dark take on the age old tale.
