This little tale of Change and Transformation is itself a change and transformation of a Märchen from the Grimm collection called “Hans My Hedgehog.” Perhaps a better word for what I have done here is the German word “Umstülpung”—quite a mouthful in English. It’s a word whose meaning, “inversion,” also carries the connotation of “a deep opening process of turning a social field completely inside-out and outside-in, of upending things.”
— Bruce Donehower, from the Afterword
