Fairy tales were never as innocent as we remember them.Dark Tales of Magic and Madness is a dark poetry collection that wanders through the shadowed corners of fairy tales, folklore, mythology, nursery rhymes, and familiar stories. Blending dark humor, magic, madness, and modern perspective, H.N. Baird turns well-known tales on their heads, giving new voices to princesses, monsters, goddesses, villains, witches, and women who are done waiting around to be rescued.From Rapunzel and Little Red Riding Hood to Medusa, Freya, Mr. Hyde, and Frankenstein, these poems explore identity, womanhood, love, fear, trauma, resilience, mental health, and the strange magic found in becoming your own hero.Illustrated throughout with haunting black-and-white artwork, Dark Tales of Magic and Madness is for readers drawn to dark poetry, reimagined fairy tales, mythology, folklore, gothic literature, and familiar stories told through unexpected perspectives.Enter a world where old stories cast new shadows, monsters aren’t always what they seem, and happily ever after isn’t always what it seems.
