Synopsis
A bold, candid, vulnerable, and entertaining memoir of the literary life of Daniel Handler, the writer otherwise known as Lemony Snicket
Part memoir, part inspiration for aspiring writers, And Then? And Then? What Else? traces Daniel Handler’s sometimes challenging and often amusing path toward one of the most spectacularly successful writing careers of the twenty-first century. Declaring his love of strange literature, Baudelaire’s The Flowers of Evil in particular, Handler reflects on the life experiences―some of them deeply personal and revealed for the first time―and the cultural influences that shaped his writing, both under his own name and under his pseudonym Lemony Snicket.

Seller: Bill & Ben Books, Faringdon, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Condition: New. A memoir from the beloved author behind the multimillion-copy bestselling A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS 'Extraordinary. highly entertaining.' DAILY TELEGRAPH Known to most as Lemony Snicket, the tormented narrator of A Series of Unfortunate Events, Daniel Handler spends his days writing - for children and adults; film and television; and, occasionally, the accordion. Mainly, he writes about horrible things: orphans, abusive uncles, poison, murder, arson, bad grammar. A love letter to the consoling and terrifying power of books, And Then? And Then? What Else? traces Handler's life through morbid poetry collections, eccentric acting troupes, hazy midnight taxi rides, second-hand bookstores and psychiatric units. Traversing his personal canon from his first encounter with Baudelaire to Vladimir Nabokov, Elizabeth Bishop and The Pet Shop Boys, Handler offers a witty, poignant exploration of reading, writing and why we tell stories. 'This erudite, vulnerable, funny and idiosyncratic book ranks among his best. Grown-up fans of Lemony Snicket will enjoy discovering the rest of the story.' WALL STREET JOURNAL.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. 'One of our most dazzling literary conjurers.' Michael Chabon Dear Reader, If you are looking for a passionate romance, a slick political thriller or, perhaps, a ripping yarn with volcanos, pirates and ghosts; a book where everything ends neatly and makes perfect, unequivocal sense, then I'm afraid this is not the book you're looking for. If you like stories about degenerate French poetry, second-hand bookshops, eccentric acting troupes, adulterous vicars, balloons with cryptic messages scrawled upon them and diamonds concealed in the sole of a woman's shoe then, please, read on. Known to most as Lemony Snicket, the tormented narrator of A Series of Unfortunate Events, Daniel Handler spends his days writing for children and adults; film and television; and, on occasion, the accordion. Tracing his life in books from his first encounter with Baudelaire at a local library, And Then? And Then? What Else? offers a witty, poignant exploration of reading, writing and why we tell stories. The tender memoir of a writing life from the bestselling author of A Series of Unfortunate Events. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
