Notes:
"Illustrations based on Arthur Rackham's paintings appearing in the 1920 edition of Sleeping
Beauty
, published by William Heineman, London, and J. B. Lippincott Co., Philadelphia, and in The fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm, published by Doubleday, Page & Co. in New York in 1909"--Title page verso.
Summary:
"In this subversive retelling of the magical tale of 'Sleeping
Beauty
,' Rebecca Solnit shifts the focus from the girl who slept for a hundred years to her sister who stayed awake -- and to a poor boy whose story stumbled into theirs.
Waking
beauty
tells of each child's adventures and obstacles: of Maya, the inspiring, extraordinary artist and changemaker who 'found [
beauty
] everywhere and gave it to everyone' ; of Atlas, who guarded golden apples and was definitely not a prince; and of Ida, who dreamed for a century and work up in a very different world"--Back cover.

Rackham, Arthur, 1867-1939.
