Spinning Straw Into Gold: What Fairy Tales Reveal about the Transformations in a Woman's Life

"What's your favorite fairy tale?" Joan Gould asks in the Introduction to this brilliantly original book about the hidden meanings in fairy tales and what these beloved stories reveal about a woman's life. <BR>Whether your answer is "Cinderella" (most women's choice), "Hansel and Gretel," or another tale, your favorite conveys something significant about you, your experiences, and your soul- something perhaps not obvious to outsiders and possibly not entirely clear to you. <BR>Throughout this illuminating book, Gould delves into the deeper meanings behind fairy tales and myths-helping you to understand not only what your choice of fairy tale may mean for you, but also what you need to be doing during the three main stages of development: maiden, matron, and crone. <BR>"This is a book about women," Gould writes, "specifically about fairy tales and the way they illuminate the metamorphoses at each stage of a woman's life: those shifts in consciousness as well as biology that propel women from one level of being to another." As Gould expertly addresses the transformations many women experience-marriage, childbirth, and widowhood-her keen observations may surprise you, and it is through these revelations, that Gould truly works her magic. <BR>The story of Sleeping Beauty allegorizes the role that waiting plays in the attainment of womanhood; "Rapunzel" illuminates a bride's ambivalence toward her impending nuptials; "The Seal Wife" acknowledges a mother's sense of loss of self to the demands of her family. Most poignantly, through the myth of Demeter and Persephone, Gould grapples with the final stage of a woman's life, the unexpected expansion of a woman's spirit in old age. <BR>Full ofarchetypal figures known to us all, this wonderfully perceptive work is also populated with narratives from the lives of ordinary women. These personal stories- of Sleeping Beauties who fell asleep in puberty and awoke ten years later to find themselves married to the wrong m
