Encounter a darker part of “THE WONDER as well as the Beast” where, in an environment of vindictive fairies and scornful magicians, not everyone will live happily ever after. Pulchritude tells the tale of Bella, a lovely girl captured between her selfish father and an enchanted prince prepared to sweep her right into a dangerous romance constructed on deception and betrayal. This debut book by feminist blogger Ana Mardoll results a vintage fairy tale to its roots as sociable commentary and in doing so holds a unusual mirror to our own world.
