(for review consideration from netgalley)
Follow up on the women and women-identifying Under Her Skin poetry anthology, 'Into the Forest' is a set of tales inspired by the mythology of Baba Yaga. Great stories include Gwendolyn Kiste’s, Sara Tantlinger, Christina Sng, and Donna Lynch, which includes exploring why Baba Yaga’s house appears attached to high chicken legs. One of the best tales is from award winning-author Stephanie M. Wytovich -- pregnancy horror territory. The stand-out is the story from Rhonda Jackson Joseph, who puts a completely new spin on the fairy tale’s structure with the inclusion of a Black perspective in a traditionally white space. Perfect for readers who can’t get enough of folklore and fairy tales.
