About The Juniper Tree
The Juniper Tree is a 1985 novel by British writer Barbara Comyns. The penultimate novel of the author, it combines gothic literature, family drama, magical realism, and fairy tale. The book contains allusions to the 1812 fairy tale "The Juniper Tree" by the Brothers Grimm, which is where the title of the novel comes from. The story features Bella Winter, a homeless, jobless mother of a toddler, who is disfigured from a car accident and distancing herself from her abusive mother.
