"The Sea-Hare" is an unusual tale about a proud princess who spends most of her time in a magical tower with twelve windows. Unlike other stories about princesses who fall in love with a prince’s appearance, the princess in "The Sea-Hare" makes her suitors hide from her. If she finds someone, she kills him. Who will be the brave man to both hide and step up for the girl he wants? How will he manage to win the princess’s heart? Is this a tale with a happy ending or it is a comic tragedy?
