On Literary References Made: September through December

As some of you will have noticed, I attempt to make some sort of literary reference, both direct and indirect, in each post. For those of you who are interested as to what references have been made, read on, if you are not then here is where you should stop and occupy yourself with some other reading.

On Shoes
- The Brothers’ Grimm “The Twelve Dancing Princesses”, “Cinderella”, and “The Elves and the Shoemaker”

    I looked for new additional fascinaating tales in 2012 and have not found them yet. But I know I will.
