Virginia Woolf's only play-a hilarious farce taken from the life of her great-aunt, Julia Margaret Cameron, the famous Victorian photographer. It was first performed at Vanessa Bell's London studio in 1935 as one of Bloomsbury's theatrical evenings and later, in New York, in a star-studded French production. Edited and with a Preface by Lucio P. Ruotolo; drawings by Edward Gorey.

Puts a new twist on three classic fairy tales, as Little Red, her grandmother, and the woodcutter are rewarded, Jack taunts the last remaining giant in Cornwall, and Omoline, the miller's daughter, toys with the ugly little man who wants to take her child.
