For more than 75 years "The Real Mother Goose" has been delighting thousands of boys and girls, and the magic is as strong as ever. All the familiar verses are here, exactly as they have been repeated from generation to generation.
"The Real Life of Sebastian Knight" is a perversely magical literary detective story - subtle, intricate, leading to a tantalizing climax - about the mysterious life of a famous writer. Many people knew things about Sebastian Knight as a distinguished novelist, but probably fewer than a dozen knew of the two love affairs that so profoundly influenced his career, the second one in such a disastrous way. After Knight`s death, his half brother sets out to penetrate the enigma of his life, starting with a few scanty clues in the novelist`s private papers. His search proves to be a story as intriguing as any of his subject`s own novels, as baffling, and, in the end, as uniquely rewarding.
