Morgenstern, with Goldman's humorous commentary throughout. It follows the tale of Buttercup, a beautiful young woman, and her true love, Westley, a farm boy who is believed to have died. After Buttercup is forced to marry a prince, Westley returns to rescue her, leading to a series of daring adventures involving pirates, giants, and a mysterious masked man. With its memorable characters, clever dialogue, and satirical tone, the book is both a love story and a parody of classic fairy tales, offering readers a mix of romance, action, and humor.
