Fairytales for Wilde Girls by Allyse Near

Beautifully sad and sadly beautiful.
A strange and tangled mix of real and unreal.
I love this book.
I love it's short wonky chapters, it's words and language, it's visuals and it's tragically appealing heroes and heroines.

In real life love and hate, war and peace, sadness and happiness, beauty and ugliness, good and bad, loneliness and it's elusive opposite, exist side by side.  Just as Allyse Near has warply wefted this story together, closely and loosely, full of longing.
Ca m'amene a un endroit merveilleusement familier comme une sensation de déjà vu. 
Je l'adore.
