Daniel Handler Why Does Lemony Snicket Keep Following Me?

Mondavi Center Presenting Program


SocialTwist Tell-a-Friend

One of our most dazzling literary conjurers shuffles the deck of contemporary consciousness and desire.

—Michael Chabon

Daniel Handler is the author of the literary novels The Basic Eight, Watch Your Mouth, and, most recently, Adverbs . Under the name Lemony Snicket he has also written a sequence of works for children, known collectively as A Series of Unfortunate Events, which have sold more than 60 million copies and were the basis of a feature film. Handler explains how his pseudonym stole his ideas, blocked his spotlight, seduced his wife, bought him a house, and ruined forever his dream of a scruffy, anonymous, bohemian life. Featuring unreliable anecdotes, baseless accusations, curious digressions, impractical jokes, and a growing suspicion that he is in the wrong room.
