Beauty and the Beast with Emma C. Fox

Alicia Pollard is joined by Emma C. Fox to talk about Emma’s book The Arrow and the Crown, a retelling (or story with echoes) of “Beauty and the Beast.” They discuss how Emma’s book deals with topics like light/darkness, fear/love, and lies/truth in the spirit of 1 John; the themes and images of the forest, grace, the Beast, sanctification, and community; griffins; and the significance of fancy dresses.
