Castle Waiting / Linda Medley / 457 pages / Fairy Tale
Do you know St. Wigglefort the Unencumbered? If you read Castle Waiting you will discover just who he is/was. Over forty years ago a professor at UMSL made reference to this little known saint frequently in his lectures. I have not heard mention of the saint since. Imagine my surprise to encounter him in a graphic novel fairy tale! Publishers Weekly says, " A set of linked nouveaux fairy tales, this graphic novel extends the story of Sleeping Beauty into a modern feminist Chaucer..." Definitely a surprise!! Bearded ladies?!
