The Time Has Come The Walrus Said To Talk Of Many Things

October 29, 2015 by prisco 2 Comments

For lovers of Shakespeare and storytelling, I give you a work of art. The first portion of this lavish tale begins in the 1700’s and goes to the year 1900, illustrated beautifully and wordless like a silent film.  It tells the legend of the Marvels, a generation-spanning family of stage actors and artists.  The second portion of the story is in prose, set in 1985 London, and gives us a runaway finding his uncle.  It’s particularly Dickensian, and watching the two stories slowly come together is so remarkable.

    Added to my Christmas list! I love the way Selznick tells his stories and am always happy to try a new one.
