Is the book always better than the film?
'Outrageous fun' - Kaliane Bradley, author of The Ministry of Time
Yes, book lovers cry! Hollywood never gets it right - they gloss over crucial moments, the dialogue sounds bizarre and the characters never look like they’re supposed to.
But what about Jaws or The Godfather? These films are so much better than the potboiler novels they came from. And then there are some perfect adaptations. Doesn’t every reader’s heart sing when they watch Ang Lee’s Sense and Sensibility?
In this rollicking adventure through the towering heights and unplumbed depths of book to screen adaptations, Louise Willder, the critically acclaimed author of Blurb Your Enthusiasm, uncovers what makes a good adaption, how some can be so bad, and why we insist on telling the same stories over and over and over.*
*See: Pride and Prejudice 1940, 1980, 1995, 2005, 2027, Bridget Jones' - Diary, Austenland, Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, Fire Island, Lost in Austen, Bride and Prejudice…
'Hugely entertaining' - John Yorke, author of Into the Woods
