The Juniper Tree by The Brothers Grimm. BBC RADIO DRAMA
A BBC Radio adaptation by Peter Redgrove of the lesser-known Brothers Grimm fairy tale.
Benath a juniper tree, a mother-to-be dreams of her child ... and her own death.
After the birth of a son and the mother's death, a stepmother with a daughter of her own arrives, and out of spite causes the boy's death...but tricks her daughter into believing that the girl killed her brother and in a typically gruesome fairy tale manner disposes of the boy's body.
However, this is a Brothers Grimm fairy tale ... meaning that an appropriate and suitably terrible vengeance is in store ...
