The Bone Spindle
Anne Sheldon’s heroines have lowered eyes and seditious smiles. They are people of folklore and fairy Penelope, the Crane Maiden, the Fates. Her heroes are outsiders in their own stories—Rumpelstiltskin and Arachne’s father. These story-poems and stories focus on the work that women do with spinning wheel, spindle, and knitting needles. They are accompanied by evocative images of these instruments and the cloth they yield.
