Der Fluch der Spindel

Gaiman’s version blends well-known fairy tales into a unique narrative. I'm curious what motivated this darker twist and how it affects the story’s message.

The illustrations add so much depth to the story — they felt both whimsical and eerie at times. I wonder how much thought went into the visual design.

It felt like a fresh take on classic tropes, but I’m curious if that was a deliberate decision to surprise readers or a natural evolution of the story.
