Beyond Grimm de Alan S Kessler

Beyond Grimm

Autor Alan S Kessler Ilustrat de Kali Kahn
en Limba Engleză Paperback – oct 2026
This illustrated collection features twenty-five short stories and poems based on the Grimm Brothers' fairy tales, which were sanitized in their time to reduce violence for children-but these tall tales are not for children. In Beyond Grimm, some stories are simple, others more thought-provoking, but all of them-by twisting known fairy tales to be darker and more amusingly gory and violent-restore for adults the fun of reading about fanciful characters who are demented, bloodsucking, and get the end they deserve. Written by award-winning author, poet, and playwright Alan S. Kessler and illustrated by Kali Kahn.

Notă biografică

Alan S. Kessler was born in Columbus, Ohio. He is a lifelong Ohio State Buckeye fan (mostly football and basketball), and also a fan of the Cleveland Browns who have been rebuilding since 1964, the year the team last won a league championship. The darkness in his writing is partlycaused by the pain the Browns have caused him over the years (smile). Kessler is married, has four children, three grandchildren, and a dog, Brownie. He is a vegetarian but if available, will gladly eat a few White Castle burgers, the thin patty with 5 holes drilled through it making the meat almost nonexistent.In addition to his novels and short stories, Kessler is a published poet, playwright, soccer coach, and 6th degree black belt. In his novels and short stories, Kessler creates complex, marginalized, and often flawed characters in stories exploring the nature of good and evil and the corrosive effect of racism, abuse, and social injustice. His writing is influenced by childhood pain. As he stated in a blurb about his most personal novel, Shadowlands: "I was born in a small town in Ohio. The Midwest is associated with wholesomeness and family values. I know frompersonal experience this isn't always the case. Those corn fields often hide more within them than the sound of the wind." The past can cripple, but for Kessler it created a writer; one who has empathy for even his imperfect characters who are neither good nor bad but inhabit the gray area in-between. His writing is both dark and hopeful with forgiveness and understanding woven into the worlds he creates. No one is judged...Except the truly evil. Alan S. Kessler believes in social justice and retribution toward those who oppress the powerless and harm the innocent.
