In this 2025 edition and homage to the great Edgar Allan Poe (1840-1849), Sandrine Bessancort presents "The Thousand-and-Second Tale of Scheherazade Revisited" and gives us an idea of how the stories might have proceeded had they been told to the King insisting upon hearing them in the female-led style.
Different and highly addictive to the male listener is the answer.
Then again, and no matter how different the stories may be, one thing is for sure at the conclusion of the tales spun by Ms Bessancort's take on Poe's bold and fearless heroine...
It will NOT be Scheherazade herself who finds the life she has known at an end when they finish!
Retro fantasy and female-led fiction for those readers who prefer to use the darker sides of their imaginations with the help of character-driven plotlines.
