Review
Pernahkah teman - teman membaca kisah rakyat dari Norwegia dengan judul "East of the Sun, West of the Moon"?
Saya tidak terlalu familiar dengan kisah rakyat ini, mungkin karena
tidak difilmkan oleh Disney (heheh!). Tapi adaptasinya sendiri lumayan
banyak. Salah satunya adalah novel Ice karya Sarah Beth Durst.
Yah, mengingat belum diterbitkan disini juga, maka wajar kalau kisah
rakyat ini tidak terlalu terkenal (atau saya aja yang ngga tahu :P).
Saya melihat judul ini di NetGalley, dan tertarik baca sinopsisnya, sebuah "adult retelling" dari kisah rakyat yang sudah turun temurun, dimana justru heroinenya yang menyelamatkan heronya.
