Description
If you are looking for a passionate romance, a slick political thriller or, perhaps, a ripping yarn of derring-do, a book where everything ends neatly and makes perfect, unequivocal sense, then this is probably not the book for you.
If you like stories about degenerate French poetry, second-hand bookshops, eccentric acting troupes, adulterous vicars, balloons with cryptic messages scrawled upon them and the ways in which you might become a writer, 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 occasionally, the accordion. Tracing his life in books from his first encounter with Baudelaire at a local library through the many cultural influences that have shaped his career, And Then? And Then? What Else? offers a witty, poignant exploration of reading, writing and why we tell stories.
