The Taboo Obsession Of The Creator Of The Little Mermaid: Hans Christian Andersen

Hans Christian Andersen - if you don’t know the guy, you… actually probably do.

He was an writer in the 1800’s and he is famous for his fairytales - some of those being repurposed by the likes of Disney. The Little Mermaid… The Ugly Duckling… Princess & the Pea, The Emperor’s New Clothes.
