This time, our tales take us from the squalid, fog-shrouded streets of 19th-century London to the grim trenches of World War I. We visit a genteel English spa town, a picturesque Shropshire estate, then wander the artistic, sun-drenched streets of Florence, Italy. Our journey then takes an unexpected detour where we are immersed in the tumultuous fervor of the Russian Revolution. The final story spans decades, oscillating between England and Finland, from post-war optimism to stark disillusionment. These narratives echo the Brothers Grimm rather than Disney, offering gritty realism over fairy-tale endings.
