Thinking about Genre. In the NPR interview you heard, Audie Cornish asks Sarah Shun-lien Bynum in the book "Likes" what she thinks the role of the fairy tale is today. Shun-lien Bynum replies: "I think that at the heart of so many fairy tales, there's the story of...surviving under unimaginably harsh circumstances. And I think maybe that's something that a fairy tale offers to us now...I think the innate toughness that we see in so many fairy tale characters, I think that's something that makes me hopeful." Argue how you see this understanding of the fairy tale at work in one or more of Shun-lien Bynum's stories. What are the "harsh circumstances" that the character must survive? What is inhibiting them or causing suffering? And how do they learn or demonstrate resilience?
