"All is yours, everywhere is open to you - except the lock that the single key fits. You must promise, if you love me, to leave it well alone." When a 17 year old virgin marries a mature and charismatic Marquis it seems like a fairy tale. But when the Marquis is called away on their wedding night, leaving her only her only his keys and a single instruction, her curiosity leads her to uncover a dark secret. Bryony Lavery's new stage adaptation of Angela Carter's story opened as a Northern Stage production in September 2008.

I bought this on a fairy-tale spree. I was buying to memorize for storytelling (for babysitting) to kids, and this was a shock!!! it is well written, but the words/themes/plots are NOT for kids. The short stories are definitely for adults and very sultry, steamy and sexy. I liked it, but not what I intended it for. I'd say if your library has it, go read it before you spend the money.
