More Asexual Fairy Tales

A girl who crafts a husband from marzipan. A man who thinks he's made of glass. A nonbinary sibling who succeeds where their brothers fail. An origin story for the asexual flag.

In this third collection, Elizabeth Hopkinson collects, combines and reinvents tales from Spain to China, El Salvador to India, bringing asexual identities to the fore. With original stories about a gender-swapped Cinderella, a poster in love, and a queer platonic relationship, this is her most inventive collection yet.
