Yet now, thirteen and a half years later, things have gone badly wrong and her life is far from perfect. One night, fed up and exhausted, she sneaks out of the palace to get help from the Witch who, for a price, offers love potions to disgruntled housewives. But as the old hag flings the last ingredients into the cauldron, Cinderella doesn't ask for a love spell to win back her Prince Charming. Instead, she wants him dead. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Endlessly surprising, wildly inventive, and decidedly modern, \u003ci\u003eThe Charmed Wife\u003c\/i\u003e weaves together time and place, fantasy and reality, to conjure a world unlike any other. Nothing in it is quite what it seems--the twists and turns of its magical, dark, and swiftly shifting paths take us deep into the heart of what makes us unique, of romance and marriage, and of the very nature of storytelling.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOlga Grushin\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eForty Rooms\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Line\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Dream Life of Sukhanov\u003c\/i\u003e, which won the New York Public Library Young Lions Fiction Award and earned her a place on \u003ci\u003eGranta\u003c\/i\u003e's Best Young American Novelists list.
