Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book of literary satire and burlesque explores the boundaries of storytelling by taking some of our most well-known forms and turning them on their heads. The author presents an unconventional orchestra arrangement of a famous piece, then details both the intricacies of the composition and the fictional history of its eccentric creator. The program for a concert that will never take place features an instrument never invented, a nonexistent symphony, and a musician who performs on a phonograph. A stage direction for a wedding describes an absurd procession of characters and events in a tone that mixes the mundane with the uncanny, leaving the reader perplexed as to what is real and what is imagined. The author cleverly constructs scenes that blend the ridiculous with the ordinary, providing both entertainment and a unique perspective on how we construct and perceive stories and events. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781440040382_0
