摘要
Joyce Carol Oates's story 'The Buck' and Margaret Drabble's novel The Witch of Exmoor might be read as reflections of the Grimms' fairy tale 'Brother and Sister', in which a young woman cares for her brother after he is transformed into a deer. Oates and Drabble challenge the common perception of fairy tales as childish, sexist, and escapist.
