I fully intended to conclude my reading of "The Snow Queen" within the Twelve Days of Christmas, but I was happily busy with contemplation, family, and travel until Epiphany. However, since neither my conscience nor my aesthetic has much patience for unfinished stories, I am now posting the remaining installments of "The Snow Queen." These were recorded back in Texas, in my kitchen on a cold and rainy January night. I hope you enjoy these. I'm especially fond of Part 5, which features a little robber girl who is both murderous and kind-hearted.
The Fourth Story, In Which Appear a Prince and a Princess
The Fifth Story, Which Is About The Robber Girl
The Sixth Story: The Lapp Woman and the Finnish Woman
The Seventh Story: What Happened In The Snow Queen's Palace and Afterward
What do you think of the conclusion of the story? What do you make of Kai's "game of reason" and Gerda's power to rescue him?
