In The Marvels, Selznick crafts another remarkable artistic and bookmaking achievement that weaves together two seemingly unrelated stories—one in words, the other in pictures—with spellbinding synergy.<br />
<br />
"The illustrations take you by the hand, and they don’t let go" - The Guardian<br />
<br />
The illustrated story begins in 1766 with Billy Marvel, the lone survivor of a shipwreck, and charts the adventures of his family of actors over five generations.<br />
<br />
The prose story opens in 1990 and follows Joseph, who has run away from school to an estranged uncle's puzzling house in London, where he, along with the reader, must piece together many mysteries.<br />
<br />
- Filled with mystery, vibrant characters, surprise twists, and heart-rending beauty, and featuring Selznick's most arresting art to date, The Marvels is a moving tribute to the power of story.<br />
- A stunning gift to be treasured for a lifetime.<br />
- Perfect for fans of theatre, history and stunning artwork<br />
- Brian's first book, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, as the winner of the esteemed Caldecott Medal, the first novel to do so, as the Caldecott Medal is for picture books & made into a feature length film. HUGO, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Jude Law
