Story0
What started as a simple translation project evolved into a creative retelling of four beloved fairy tales from the Cabinet des Fees, a renowned French collection spanning over forty volumes. As I delved back into the stories, I found that the original translations didn’t quite capture the magic I was hoping for. So, I took it upon myself to rewrite these enchanting tales in my own unique style, which, as the Irish butler might say, may not be the finest claret, but it’s the best you’ve got. —Preface - Summary by mlcui

He was rich beyond imagination and outwardly gracious, but women shunned him because of his beard, which was unmistakably blue. Also, Bluebeard, as he was forever known, had been married several times before but no one knew what became of all his wives. Nevertheless, he manages to woo young Fatima, who only discovers after they are married the fate of his previous wives and that she faces the same fate. This is the classic tale by Charles Perrault, retold masterfully by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch.

A moving story of a random act of kindness. Old Tom Pickford, an elderly clerk at Tweedie's warehouse, is moved by the sight of a young boy on a London omnibus who is about to embark on a new life at sea. His thoughts drift back to his own boyhood in the country, which he left behind long ago. A wonderful study in characterisation and nostalgia.
