Very Short Tales

The fairy tale is not just for once upon a time. In fact, in case you have not noticed, the form is alive and well. Take, for example, My Mother She Killed Me, My Father He Ate Me: Forty New Fairy Tales, published by Penguin in September. In this class, we will look at some very short tales by modern-day writers like Kate Bernheimer (editor of the aforementioned anthology) and Aimee Bender. We will also talk about motifs of the fairy tale and write some of our own.
