Snow Drop by Tanith Lee & Snow White, Blood Red

I just read this note in Ansible:
TANITH LEE's story 'Snow-Drop' became controversial when its inclusion
in a Cairo University fantasy-fiction reading list was denounced,
supposedly for the lesbian scene: 'Teaching homosexuality at Cairo
University', ranted an Egyptian paper. The story was taught for a
whole term without complaint; the _Guardian_ (29 June) suggests a
'fabricated moral scandal' intended to discredit the CU English
department, whose staff is predominantly female and one of whose
professors was recently elected as Cairo University's first-ever
female dean. [MPJ]


Coincidentally, "Snow-Drop" is in Terri and my first adult fairy tale anthology SNOW WHITE, BLOOD RED, which has just been reissued by B&N's Fall River imprint: http://tinyurl.com/4466smv

and interestingly, I remember one letter complaining about the sex in the story.

I was going to announce the reissue of SW,BR once bn.com posted the cover art, but I'm tired of waiting and this seems as good a time as ever to make the announcement. Beautiful, hardcover edition for &7.18.
