In this retelling of "Sleeping Beauty," Alice seems destined to lead a princess's life--except for the frightening curse that dreaded Aunt Violette bestowed at her christening: She will die at the age of eighteen. Although she lives, something horrible happens on her eighteenth birthday. And as a result, Alice falls into a trancelike state and refuses to speak to anyone. Will she ever recover?
"The story is redolent with sexuality, fragility, and innocence . . . [An] unusual romance."--The Bulletin

"Geras writes with imagination and skill."--Kirkus Reviews
