“Contemporary fairy tales, cushioned by goofy humor and a deep tenderness for her characters, that aren’t always as dark or as sinister as they initially appear.” —The New York Times Book Review
Aimee Bender’s Willful Creatures conjures a fantastical world in which authenticlove blooms. This is a place where a boy with keys for fingers is a hero, a woman’schildren are potatoes, and a little boy with an iron for a head is born to a familyof pumpkin heads. With her singular mix of surrealism, musical prose, and keenlyfelt emotion, Bender once again proves herself to be a masterful chronicler of thehuman condition.
