Product Information

A giant of American humor makes his Penguin Classics debut with "probably the best book in the world" (Neil Gaiman, from the Introduction), in a stunning Deluxe Edition featuring the original, full-color illustrations The hands of all thirteen clocks stand still in the gloomy castle on a lonely hill where a wicked Duke lives with his niece, the beautiful Princess Saralinda. The Duke fancies he has frozen time, for he is afraid that one day a Prince may come and win away the hand of the Princess--the only warm hand in the castle. To thwart that fate, he sets impossible tasks for Saralinda's suitors. But when the bold Prince Zorn of Zorna arrives, disguised as a wandering minstrel, and helped by the enigmatic Golux, the cold Duke may at last have met his match. Since it was first published in 1950, James Thurber's sublimely whimsical fairy tale of love forestalled but ultimately fulfilled has delighted readers of all ages. It is published here with Marc Simont's enchanting, full-color illustrations from the first edition. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

Reviews
"This book . . . is probably the best book in the world. And if it's not the best book, then it's still very much like nothing anyone has ever seen before, and, to the best of my knowledge, no one's ever really seen anything like it since. . . . It's unique. It makes people happier, like ice cream." -- Neil Gaiman, from the Introduction "One of the cleverest [fairy tales] that any modern writer has been able to tell." -- Time "Rich with ogres and oligarchs, riddles and wit. What distinguishes [ The 13 Clocks ] is not just quixotic imagination but Thurber's inimitable delight in language. . . . Thurber captivates the ear and captures the heart." -- Newsweek "There are spys, monsters, betrayals, hair's-breadth escapes, spells to be broken and all the usual accouterments, but Thurber gives the proceedings his own particular deadpan spin. . . . It all makes for a rousing concoction of adventure, humor and satire that defies any conventional classification." -- Los Angeles Times "The great  New Yorker  humorist James Thurber wrote a few children's books, the best of which may be  The 13 Clocks  . . . . [Marc Simont] provided beautifully cartoonish yet subtle mini-paintings that convey  Clocks'  varying moods of gloom, menace, surprise, and joy." -- Entertainment Weekly "One of [Thurber's] best but overlooked works . . . A raucous play of words that sounds like poetry, reads like prose, and narrowly skirts the line between the ridiculous and the profound." -- World Magazine "If you liked  The Princess Bride , you're going to like this. . . . If you remember  Fractured Fairy Tales  on Rocky and Bullwinkle, you'll like this. We suggest, read the beginning. We're not going to give away the plot, because it's all in the language with a book like this." -- Daniel Pinkwater, NPR's Weekend Edition Saturday, "This book . . . is probably the best book in the world.
