I've also not really thought about The Little Mermaid in the way you describe, but it IS massively tragic, isn't it?<br /><br />Sheri - I love the Grimm brothers and Hans Christian Anderson as well! Devoured those stories as a kind (and sometimes as an adult...)<br /><br />Barbara - Another for The Little Mermaid! How cool :) <br />Hehe, funny how we get obsessed with things dark and depressing as a teen. I HEART the remote, disconnected man in my romance reading so much...there's something vaguely wrong there!Cassandra Deanhttp://cassandradean.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7738883619831401054.post-45166999737449489392013-06-14T05:01:47.829-04:002013-06-14T05:01:47.829-04:00What an interesting post, Cassandra.

And ...My immediate response was The Little Mermaid. And not the tripe Disney version; the tragedy. Always loved me some tragedy, and I've loved this story since I was six. Doesn't say much for my self esteem is all I can gather from this. Give up everything for an unattainable man who will never truly see me for who I am? And die in the end anyway... How depressing.<br /><br />However, as a story it provides that wonderful gut wrenching, soul shattering, snot inducing cry fest that I absolutely love. Go figure. And yes, this is the TYPE of story that I'm continually drawn to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
