Pepelina, The Slavic Cinderella
by Mary-Anne Frost
No reviews yet. Be the first.
Pepelina is the pen-wielding Cinderella who eats sweet fruit from her father’s orchard and dreams of publishing a book. When her father suddenly dies, everyone rejects, mocks and silences her stories. Her only chance to publish her bird story is the ball, but even the sweetness of the midnight quickly turns sour.
Voiceless and betrayed, will Pepelina rise from the ashes, and fly on the wings of fire with her story before old enemies cage her and grief ends her? Or will heavenly wrath, and heavy ancestral truths bury the broken world in ash before her sacred story can heal it?
Writerly ever after has never been this sought-after.
