The Wife's Letter
Click here for the skeleton of the tale
I met this tale in Angela Carter's invaluable collection, The Second Virago Book of Fairytales (ISBN 1-85381-616-7). There it is called The Letter Trick and is given as a tale from Surinam.
The story was recorded in April 2011 at seitenweise bookshop, Dormagen, Germany, in a performance arranged with the vhs Dormagen.
Unfortunately I did not notice that the camera was placed close to a spotlight which hummed - causing a slight background noise.
The tale can also be downloaded here.
