What will it take for the little mermaid to find her voice? • Hans Christian Andersen's original fairy tale is reimagined through a searing feminist lens, with the stunning, scalpel-sharp writing and world building that has won Louise her legions of devoted fans. • A book with the darkest of undercurrents, full of rage and rallying cries: storytelling at its most spellbinding.
