A now scarce edition, First Printing, First Edition, signed by Lemony Snicket at the contents page for his contribution, signed as "Daniel Handler AKA L.S." Signed in person at a local independent book store. Clean interior, tightly bound, with no discernible flaws. Oversized, 48 pages. In Fine condition. Edited by Art Spiegelman and Francoise Mouly, with a dozen other contributing writers and illustrators.
In a 2022 interview with Ryan Britt, Handler commented on critics who suggested his books are “too depressing” for children: “With Lemony Snicket, I always say it’s good for the age that irony has cracked your skull. And for some people that moment never arrives.”
Rumor has it that Daniel Handler flawlessly played ZZ Top’s “Sharp Dressed Man” on accordion during his “All the Wrong Questions” tour.
