Sort of a reimagining of Hansel and Gretel. Listened to as an audiobook. The story seemed translucent and not very real. Death was always near but never was real. Terror was always a shadow and the opposite of light. Opposite were merely that and depth of reality reversed itself to the point of meaning being lost. I feel like I lost some meaning in the translation from Old English folklore to American folk present. And yet it is Norskee, not standard England folklore.


*** Spoiler Alert ***







The story beginning with the tragic end of the parents was too flat and not the sad quirkiness that was perhaps intended.
