A luxuriously magical retelling of ‚ Beauty and the Beast ‚ set in seventeenth-century France--and told from the point of view of the Beast himself.
I am neither monster nor man "yet I am both.
I am the Beast.
He is a broken, wild thing, his heart's nature exposed by his beastly form. Long ago cursed with a wretched existence, the Beast prowls the dusty hallways of his ruined ch ƒ ¢teau with only magical, unseen servants to keep him company "until a weary traveler disturbs his isolation.
Bewitched by the man's dreams of his beautiful daughter, the Beast devises a plan to lure her to the ch ƒ ¢teau. There, Isabeau courageously exchanges her father's life for her own and agrees to remain with the Beast for a year. But even as their time together weaves its own spell, the Beast finds winning Isabeau's love is only the first impossible step in breaking free from the curse ‚ . ‚ . ‚ .
