I’m taking a semester-long internet class on sci-fi and fantasy literature. I’m not sure I’ll be able to keep up with the reading and essay schedule, but I’m hoping it will at least offer a little inspiration and understanding. We’ve started the class with a reading from Grimms’ Household Tales. I don’t know why I expected “fairy tales” to have morals, but these stories seem to punish the good and bad equally and reward the lazy as well as the virtuous. Interesting to break free of the Disney versions, though. Next up, Alice in Wonderland…
