<p><b>Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles. </b><br><br>A wily cat, a strange romance, detestable daughters: the great American poet Marianne Moore retells three stories originally written by Charles Perrault to amuse the niece of Louis XIV.<br><br>Modern readers may be surprised to find that the prince does not wake Sleeping Beauty with a kiss – the more he cares, the less willing he is to intrude – and that his mother is descended from ogres. <br><br>Characterised by vivid imagery, uncluttered prose, inventive alliteration and a sly sceptic’s wit, Moore’s versions do more than tell a tale: ‘Having seen a problem solved,’ she writes, each one leaves ‘a pattern of order in the mind.’<br><br><b>Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.</b></p>
