Dont expect to sleep comfortably tonight, however, because it also raises many, many questions. Knowing Mr. Snicket, these are likely to be the wrong questions. Ill definitely be doing a reread of the series.

  • Conspiracy Narratives in Lemony Snicket's a Series Of
    CONSPIRACY NARRATIVES IN LEMONY SNICKET’S A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS by © Jillian Hatch A thesis submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English Memorial University of Newfoundland August 2015 St. John’s Newfoundland and Labrador ABSTRACT This thesis studies themes of conspiracy in children’s literature through the lens of Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events (ASOUE). The evolution of conspiracy theory, from traditional to postmodern, is mirrored in the journey of the Baudelaire children. Starting out as eager detectives, the children develop into survivors, keenly aware of humanity’s many flaws. Despite this dark, conspiracy-laden journey, ASOUE is remarkably enjoyable, largely due to the playfulness with which the theme of conspiracy is treated. The characters, Lemony Snicket (as character, narrator, and author), and the reader all partake in this conspiratorial playfulness; and these modes of play serve to entice the reader into active reading and learning. The themes of conspiracy and play within ASOUE provide the child reader with the tools needed to address and master linguistic challenges, to overcome anxieties, and to engage with our frequently scary and chaotic world by way of realistic optimism. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My thanks are due to many people who have provided assistance, knowledge, support, and enduring patience during the long writing process. I am deeply grateful to my supervisor, Christopher Lockett, whose critical passion and insights enabled me to shape this material, and whose encouragement allowed me to reinvigorate a long-dormant project. Many thanks also to Danine Farquharson and Jennifer Lokash for their generous assistance, and to Andrew Loman and Naomi Hamer, whose advice and insights have been greatly appreciated.

    12 Western Avenue, Petaluma, CA 94952 tel: 707.773.0654 fax: 707.778.1868 www.barclayagency.com Daniel Handler Bestselling Author (A.K.A Lemony Snicket) Daniel Handler’s next novel for adults is “Daniel Handler [is] something the highly-anticipated We Are Pirates, which like an American Nabokov.” — Dave Eggers Bloomsbury will publish in February, and Neil Gaiman says is, “Honest and funny, dark and painful. We Are Pirates reads like the result of a nightmarish mating experiment between Joseph Heller and Captain Jack Sparrow. It’s the strangest, most brilliant offering yet from the mind behind Lemony Snicket.” Daniel Handler is also the author of the Photo: Meredith Heuer novels The Basic Eight, Watch Your Mouth, Adverbs, and, with Maira Kalman, Why We Broke Up, which won the Michael J. Printz Honor. He also worked with Kalman on the book Girls Standing on Lawns and Hurry Up and Wait (May 2015). “One of our most dazzling As Lemony Snicket, he has written the best-selling series All The Wrong Questions as well as A Series of literary conjurers shuffles the deck of contemporary Unfortunate Events, which has sold more than 60 million copies, was the basis of a feature film starring consciousness and desire.” Jim Carrey and Meryl Streep, with Jude Law as Lemony Snicket, and is being developed for television. —Michael Chabon Snicket is also the creator of several picture books, including the Charlotte Zolotow Award-winning The Dark, illustrated by Jon Klassen. His newest picture book is 29 Myths on the Swinster Pharmacy illustrated by Lisa Brown.

  • Daniel Handler Embraces Complexity
    DANIEL HANDLER EMBRACES COMPLEXITY SUBJECT INTERVIEWER LOCATION ANTIDOTE TO Daniel Handler Daniel Teitelbaum San Francisco, USA Mundanity OCCUPATION PHOTOGRAPHER DATE UNEXPECTED Writer Angela DeCenzo August 2015 Accordionist “Everybody always says, ‘Oh you wanted darkness.’ But it was more a specific kind of darkness. It wasn’t just terrible things happening. I wanted this underlying tone of ‘is this real?’ And ‘Did this really happen?’” Daniel Handler isn’t an ordinary children’s book writer. Rather than avoid things that are confusing, uncertain and unnerving about the world, he invites his readers to sit with their discomfort and see that life doesn’t always pan out as a clear, easy-to-interpret story. Daniel’s writing opens up our imaginations, the part swamped in mystery—or as he calls it, “the befuddled” part—so that we can laugh when things go wrong, and remain inspired and curious when our expectations aren’t met. Under his own name, Daniel’s written books that explore love, growing up and what life might be like as a classical pirate in the 21st century. As Lemony Snicket, the fictional narrator he created and represents at book signings, he has written two hugely popular children’s book series: A Series of Unfortunate Events and All the Wrong Questions, which have been made into movies, TV shows, all of it. The books have sold more than 65 million copies worldwide. Throughout our conversation, tangential threads offer themselves up for tugging— including a vision of how the world could be. I found a deep humility in Daniel that is repelled by the idea of preaching or telling anyone how it is.
