Imagine being always told what to do, what to look like and not having the chance to choose. Follow this dauntless adventure and discover a story in bright, musical verse that transmits values such as equality and having the courage to follow your dreams. Nona is a princess who lives in a great palace, but she is not happy. Being a princess is not as easy as it seems... To begin with, a princess cannot make mistakes, nor yawn, nor scratch her nose... Furthermore, she must be discreet, always smile and wait patiently for her prince charming to arrive. It's such a boring job. It’s a pain to be a princess! Nona dreams of escaping from the palace and finding her purpose, although she still doesn't know what this is. Therefore, she decides to leave the court in search of adventure. Outside the palace, she will have to follow her own path until she finds who she is meant to be and, thus, takes over her own destiny.

These 30 true stories of take-charge princesses from around the world and throughout history offer a different kind of bedtime story . . . Pop history meets a funny, feminist point-of-view in these illustrated tales of “royal terrors who make modern gossip queens seem as demure as Snow White” (New York Post). You think you know her story. You’ve read the Brothers Grimm, you’ve watched the Disney cartoons, and you cheered as these virtuous women lived happily ever after. But real princesses didn’t always get happy endings—and had very little in common with Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Belle, or Ariel. Featuring illustrations by Wicked cover artist, Douglas Smith, Princesses Behaving Badly tells the true stories of famous (Marie Antoinette; Lucrezia Borgia)—and some not-so-famous—princesses throughout history and around the world, including: • Princess Stephanie von Hohenlohe, a Nazi spy. • Empress Elisabeth of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, who slept wearing a mask of raw veal. • Princess Olga of Kiev, who slaughtered her way to sainthood. • Princess Lakshmibai, who waged war on the battlefield with her toddler strapped to her back. Some were villains, some were heroes, some were just plain crazy. But none of these princesses felt constrained to our notions of “lady-like” behavior.

Carolyn Gage is one of our most courageous and innovative writers to come of age inside the lesbian feminist movement of our time. Throughout her prolific career, Gage has given voice to women missing or misrepresented in the literary canon. Whether a lesbian Joan of Arc regretting her service to the king or a Harriet Tubman arguing with her therapist, Gage's women startle us not only because they are unfamiliar, but because they ring so true. In The Princess of Pain, Gage once again lures us past our threshold of comfort as we journey through the interior landscape of a woman suffering with irremediable pain. Under the magic of Gage's crystalline prose and Sudie Rakusin's resonant illustrations, any residue impulses to blame or otherwise distance ourselves from human suffering are exposed as base and cruel when set beside Princess' heroic, clear-eyed refusal of false palliatives. -Patricia Morgne Cramer, co-editor Virginia Woolf: Lesbian Readings In Carolyn Gage's The Princess of Pain we go on a moving journey of discovery with a woman tortured by constant pain. She takes us along in her wheelchair, seeking peace, answers, and an end to her pain, as she visits goddesses from around the world. The goddesses, lusciously illustrated by Sudie Rakusin and richly described by Gage, provide the princess with many beautiful and terrifying truths. The Princess of Pain delves deep into myth and story in gorgeous detail, leading the reader and the princess to recognize our incredible purpose, showing us how to name it, and to take into our hands the mystery of ourselves and our universe in acceptance. - Jen Rouse, author of Cake The Princess of Pain is deceptively simple and universally human. Gage's story engages the heart and mind, pulling the reader forward with hope and desire. Rakusin's illustrations absorb the reader-this is not a story you merely dip a toe in; it is full-bodied, immersive. Part-metaphor, part-hero's journey, it remains entirely original. It is a necessary story teaching necessary lessons that somehow avoids preachiness and moralizing. We find our way into the Princess' heart and see the hope in her apparent pessimism. - Hilary Brown, author of When She Woke She Was an Open Field

And yes, this is a kissing book.”—Ashley Poston, author of Heart of Iron “A breakneck fantasy adventure.... Swoony romance, sword fights, a great cast of characters and some clever parallels to a story about another princess who won’t be made a bride makes The Princess Will Save You a strong contender for my favorite novel of the year.”—Emily Hall Schroen, Main Street Books, St. Charles, Missouri At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
