Rooster Under the Table Kindle Edition

5.0 out of 5 stars 1 rating

Once upon a time, in a land of magic, there lived a princess who did NOT want to marry.

She wanted to have adventures like the knights, or rule a kingdom like her father. She didn't like sitting around in pretty dresses, eating daintily with fancy silverware, and speaking in a soft, ladylike voice. And those were the only things a queen, ever got to do. So she put on her overalls and sat under the table where she chatted with a rooster.

A modern version of Rabbi Nachman's The Rooster Prince

This is not your classic folktale princess.

WHERE SIME AND GEN MEET, CREATIVITY HAPPENS

The motto of the Sime~Gen universe fits Jean Lorrah's writing career, for her work is always on some sort of borderland. In childhood she lived a life of the imagination far more vivid than the gloomy steel town she grew up in, yet she also succeeded in school, ultimately growing up to become a high school teacher and later a university professor as she continued her life of the mind into creative writing.

More recently, having retired from teaching (but not from writing), Jean took up art, and has become a prize-winning artist. In 2022 she joined the PAPA Gallery (Paducah Area Painters Alliance), where her work is selling nicely.

Jean is the creator of the Savage Empire series and co-author of the Sime~Gen series created by Jacqueline Lichtenberg. Jean specializes in Intimate Adventure, stories in which people with opposing points of view must resolve conflicts by working together, usually with lives at stake. In real life, she frequently collaborates with other authors.

She is also a screenwriter, with an optioned screenplay, Coal for Christmas, written with Lois Wickstrom. Be sure to look for her Nessie's Grotto books with Lois, and folk tale favorite Rooster Under the Table. Besides all that, Jean has a one-off vampire novel, Blood Will Tell, and of course her four professional Star Trek novels.

  • Reviewed in the United States on October 31, 2011
    "The Rooster under the Table", retold by Lois June Wickstrom and Jean Lorrah, is the delightful tale of a rooster who has more brains than the average bird, a princess who acts like a rooster to achieve her goals, a prince who can do anything without using his title for unfair advantage and a king who must try to create something acceptable to his dynasty from what appears to be nothing. Thanks to one very smart rooster, it becomes poignantly clear to the reader that greatness can be accomplished by anyone and everyone, so long as one truly sets their mind to achieving that most lofty and difficult of goals.
