The Girl with Glass Feet is a beautiful, modern fairy tale.Ida is slowly turning into glass and she has returned to St. Hauda's Land looking for a cure. What she finds instead is Midas, a shy boy who is determined to help her stop the curse that has made her feet heavy and fragile.
Shaw has created a world that hints at the horrible, but still seems beautiful and full of possibility, even in the face of the tragic reality of Ida's feet.
This is a love story of a different kind. It might break your heart, or it might give you a lightness of heart at the hope it provides for us.
