Join us in a virtual discussion of modern adult fiction's take on old fairy tales with Kerry Madden-Lunsford and Anamaria Santiago of UAB's Department of English.
We always seem to find ourselves coming back to the classics because, well, they've been with us for centuries for a reason! In this virtual discussion, we will explore how enticing these stories are and how authors put a modern twist on legends in order to entice a new audience. Join Kerry Madden-Lunsford and Anamaria Santiago, both from the UAB Department of English, in a exciting discussion of modern retellings and how they illuminate overlooked themes and interesting connections to our modern world. The stories are familiar, but the lessons we learn from retellings feel fresh.
