About this book

Meet the real little mermaid as she navigates the tricky currents of love, sacrifice and sea foam. Our lovely main character is willing to give up on her life in the sea to have a human soul, but she needs to marry a human who would offer her half of his own. When she meets a prince, she thinks her dream is coming to life, but the outcome is not what she expected. This heart-breaking fairytale is about what we’re willing to lose in order to be free. Andersen’s prose paints beautifully sorrow, hope and longing. If you think you know the Little Mermaid, dive into the original story and lose yourself in both the magic and the darkness of it.
