Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | What am I doing? -- Tell me more -- Are you OK? -- Wrong -- I like to think that I killed him -- Why did I keep cutting this? -- The blanks we find in the world -- Do things have to mean things? -- This is what it sounds like -- Alone on the bus -- Books are like people -- Everything I write is dumb -- What is it trying to tell me? The author of the popular Lemony Snicket books discusses his love of strange literature and reflects on his life experiences in an entertaining memoir that also serves as inspiration for aspiring writers "Writing as Lemony Snicket, Daniel Handler has led several generations of young readers into that special and curious space of being hopelessly lost, and joyfully finding yourself, in the essential strangeness of literature. The wondrous and perilous journey of the Baudelaire orphans sprung from the author's own path, from his childhood discovery of Baudelaire's poetry through the countless peculiarities of his pursuit of a literary life--abject failure and startling success, breakthrough and breakdown, concordance and controversy--lit along the way by the books and culture he loved best. At once a personal memoir and a literary exploration, a how-to book and a critical inquiry, a sequence of stories and a series of events, And Then? And Then? What Else? is a book not just for anyone curious about the creator of Lemony Snicket, but for anyone who loved books when they were a child, and still loves them now" -- |
