Raven’s Rhymes Reborn

A book titled 'Raven's Rhymes Reborn: Nursery Rhymes and Fables for the Emotionally Detached' by Brian J. Eskridge is placed on a wooden desk. There are two ravens perched beside the book, one large and dark, the other smaller. Old parchment papers and a quill feather are also on the desk, with a vintage lamp providing warm light in the background.

I’m very exited to announce that I will be partnering with Sterncastle Publishing for the release of Raven’s Rhymes Reborn – Nursery Rhymes and Fables for the Emotionally Detached.

It’s an illustrated, a darkly satirical and psychologically rich examination of classic nursery rhymes, retold for the inquisitive and unflinchingly curious mind. 

It’s for the adults who always suspected there was more to the rhyme than met the ear. Each chapter conducts a literary autopsy of a well-known rhyme—first through a critical and humorous breakdown of its origins, meanings, and the truths it tries to bury. Then, in “Raven’s Re-Writes,” I offer a bold, illustrated, modern retelling—unfiltered, unsentimental, and surgically honest.
