If you enjoy stories, you will love Susan Scheid's After Enchantment. You meet Prince Charming, now a Buddhist, and Jesus, over coffee. Sleeping Beauty has insomnia, the Wicked Witch apologizes, the Big Bad Wolf even sneaks in through the dark. Beautifully illustrated with watercolor images painted by the author's sister, Elizabeth Scheid, this is not your ordinary poetry collection, but a true artistic collaboration that you will want to read over and over again. As Joseph Ross, author of Meeting Bone Man, states: "The comforting stories we learned as children collide with the ragged world we inhabit as adults. Make no mistake: these are not children's stories. Scheid's poems are essential stories. Her poems speak from both sides of every prison wall, from Mexico, Chile, and Haiti. Read these poems and you might just live happily ever after."
