Description
The Grinning Man by Carl Grose is a darkly comedic fairy tale that tells the story of Grinpayne, a man with a hideous smile. With the help of an old puppeteer and his pet wolf, Grinpayne's past is revealed, leading him on a journey into a cruel world where he must confront the aristocracy. As word spreads about Grinpayne's mysterious past, he leaves behind his true love to embark on a perilous adventure. The result is a tale that blends pitch-black humour with Gothic horror and swashbuckling adventure. This book has received praise for its unique blend of genres and its ability to defy theatrical convention while still keeping its heart in the right place.
