Briar Rose by Robert Coover

Coover puts his unique spin on one of the oldest and best-known of all fairy tales, Sleeping Beauty, telling the story of a prince trapped in the briars; a sleeping beauty who cannot awaken, dreaming of a succession of kissing princes; and the old spell-casting fairy who inhabits the princess's dreams, regaling her with legends of other sleeping beauties and trying to imagine the nature of human desire.
