The Princess and the Prick is a feminist humour and gift book for adults.

May I kiss you, he said.
She didn't answer. She was asleep.
So he kissed her anyway.
SLEEPING BEAUTY

Revisit childhood classics, but not as you remember them. Familiar fables are turned on their heads as your beloved heroines finally have their say.

Think Ladybird for Adults or Enid Blyton spoofs; The Princess and the Prick flips fairy tales, nursery rhymes and children's books on their head. Retold through a feminist lens as one liners, verses and rhyming couplets, and highlighting the sexism endemic in stories we grew up with, these classic tales will never be the same again...

'I hate this book. It makes me look like a right prick.'
Prince Charming

'A real wake-up call.'
Sleeping Beauty

The Princess and the Prick, a humorous pastiche of classic tales, is a top choice in the fantasy genre. This bestseller, filled with short fiction adaptations of folk mythology and legends, offers a unique feminist perspective that will leave you questioning the stories you thought you knew.

For fans of Stephanie Garber (A Curse For True Love), Lucinda Berry (Keep Your Friends Close), Scarlett St. Clair (A Touch of Darkness), Karrie Fransman (Gender Swapped Fairy Tales), and Ja Corrigan (The Nurse).
