What do Sleeping Beauty, a mannequin, and Eve (of Adam and Eve) have in common? They're all subjects of poems in this spellbinding collection, which weaves together fairy tales, iconic characters, and totems of the West's beauty myth. The result: A sharp-witted criticism of a culture that turns little girls into princesses, and big girls into self-hating villains. A must-read for teens--girls and boys alike.
