A dark fairy-tale inspired erotic novel that reimagines a classic Sleeping Beauty myth through themes of power, desire, and transformation, written under Anne Rice’s pseudonym A. N. Roquelaure.
The Claiming of Sleeping Beauty is a paperback novel that retells the traditional fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty through a lens of adult fantasy and psychological exploration. Rather than following a conventional romantic awakening, the story reframes the awakening as an initiation into a structured world of dominance, submission, and ritualized desire within a mythic, medieval-inspired setting.
Written in lush, atmospheric prose, the novel focuses on themes of control, surrender, identity, and transformation, using fairy-tale symbolism to explore deeper questions of power and fantasy. It is the first book in a trilogy that expands on this reinterpretation of the Sleeping Beauty mythos.
