ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Hazel Wood" by Melissa Albert follows Alice, a young woman plagued by bad luck and a mysterious family history. Her life takes a dramatic turn when her mother is kidnapped, and Alice discovers her connection to the Hinterland, a dark and dangerous world of fairy tales created by her grandmother, Althea Proserpine.

 

Driven to rescue her mother, Alice embarks on a quest into the Hinterland, encountering bizarre characters and unraveling the secrets of her grandmother's stories. The novel explores the power of storytelling, the blurred lines between reality and fiction, and the struggle to break free from predetermined narratives. Alice must confront her family's legacy and decide whether to embrace or defy the dangerous magic that binds her to the Hinterland.
