This story consists of 13 or so individual tales woven together as a set of subversive stories for a robot to remember her creator by. Some of them are retellings of classic fairy tales, some are original, all kind of bump along as well told stories with complicated morals--not much like the original fairy tales at all, as the narrator points out. It hangs together as a plot but really the point is those individual tales with their unique path and uncertain resolutions. Entertaining to read and appreciate.
