All the Ever Afters : The Untold Story of Cinderella's Stepmother
Description
This richly imagined retelling of Cinderella gives voice to Agnes, the woman history has condemned as the story’s “evil” stepmother. Born into poverty and forced into servitude, Agnes endures betrayal, hardship, and impossible choices as she fights to build a better life and becomes entangled in the fate of the remarkable child who will one day be known as Cinderella. As Agnes records the truth behind the kingdom’s cherished legend, familiar ideas of beauty, cruelty, motherhood, and love take on surprising complexity. Lyrical and emotionally resonant, the novel explores how survival shapes us—and whether any life can truly be reduced to a simple tale of good and evil.
