A. S. Byatt
The Djinn in the Nightingale's Eye (five modern fairy tales).
London, 1995, Vintage.
0099521318
This is probably my favourite Byatt book. In the title story, a woman makes a metaphoric and personal journey of discovery through identity and freedom. All five stories take the traditional form and elements of fairy tale and represent them in a modern manner or context.
