About the series
A single-issue graphic novel published by Aschehoug in 2005, Askepotts søster og andre oppbyggelige fortellinger reimagines classic fairy tales from a distinctly modern, feminist perspective. Written by Joanna Rubin Dranger and Kjersti Scheen, with art by Dranger, the book offers a series of "edifying tales" that subvert traditional narratives, focusing on overlooked characters like Cinderella's stepsister. Its significance lies in its sharp, witty critique of gender roles and its place within the Scandinavian tradition of reworking folklore for contemporary readers.
