Description:
<DIV><DIV><b>More sly and imaginative tributes to some of the greatest writing of the modern age, from author Daniel Stern</b></div><DIV><BR>In <i>Twice Told Tales</i>, Stern wonderfully reimagined classics of world literature—from Forster to Freud—in homage to their authors and the power of great writing.<i>Twice Upon a Time</i> continues the project, though this time Stern goes further, weaving stories around texts as diverse as Marx and Engels’s <i>The Communist Manifesto</i> and the poetry of Wallace Stevens. In “Bartleby the Scrivener,” Melville’s famous copyist is relocated to Hollywood; the hero is an agent who “would prefer not to retire.”</div><DIV><BR>Infectiously clever, <i>Twice Upon a Time</i> enchants like the best of the authors to whom it pays tribute.</div><DIV></div></div>
