Wrightales are original fairy tales written by Lisa Wright for grownups who have never quite grown up. They take a whimsical, once-upon-a-time view of life's quandaries and travails. The search for happiness and fulfillment is explored with humor and imagination. This collection of nine tales includes the story of a dream deferred, a fable about the search for the secret of happiness, and a Solstice story to chase the dark away. There are wizards and dragons, wild geese and small white dogs, magic and trickery, and all varieties of love.

I love the stories in this book. The stories are well written and present "everyman" human experiences and struggles in such a whimsical and unintrusive way. Really beautifully done.
These are beautifully written tales. The author, Lisa Wright, is a terrific reader, should you get a chance to hear her in person or online (her free podcast is at Podiobooks.com). Recommended.
