In this four-book series a 13-year-old Lemony chronicles his dangerous and puzzling apprenticeship in a mysterious organisation that nobody knows anything about: And in the future things are poised to get much worse, thanks to the forthcoming Netflix series directed by Barry Sonnenfeld. In the tradition of great storytellers, from Dickens to Dahl, comes an exquisitely dark comedy that is both literary and irreverent, hilarious and deftly crafted.ĭespite their wretched contents, A Series of Unfortunate Events has sold 60 million copies worldwide and been made into a Hollywood film starring Jim Carrey. In The Miserable Mill the siblings encounter a giant pincher machine, a bad casserole, a man with a cloud of smoke where his head should be, a hypnotist, a terrible accident and coupons. Unfortunately, they are exceptionally unlucky. They are charming, and resourceful, and have pleasant facial features. Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire are intelligent children. But if you insist on discovering the unpleasant adventures of the Baudelaire orphans, then proceed with caution. You still have time to choose another international best-selling series to read. There is nothing to be found in Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events but misery and despair.
