Explores storytelling and folklore,

This review is from: Picturing the Rose: A Way of Looking at Fairy Tales (Wilson Chronologies) (Hardcover)
This is a charming book that will be of interest to storytellers and folklorists who want to think more about each other's art. Lane offers explanations of themes in folklore and emphasizes what is important in the performance of a tale, too. I have dabbled in storytelling and folklore studies and have found this book to be one of the best for melding the two together with respect and fairness to both. The book will be of greater interest to persons beginning study in either field. The analysis is fairly common and doesn't offer much beyond what is available in other scholarly texts. Storytellers should appreciate the invitation to think about the subtext of the tales they tell.
