About this book
The Story of Blue-Beard speaks of a man who had fine town and country houses, gold and silver plate, embroidered furniture, and coaches gilt all over, but unfortunately had a blue beard. The text says one of the man’s neighbours, a lady of quality, had two daughters, who were perfectly beautiful. The text says the man had had several wives already, and nobody knew what had become of them.
The tale says Blue Beard told his wife that he was obliged to take a journey, which would occupy six weeks at least, on a matter of great consequence. Blue Beard asks his wife why there is some blood on this key.
