Daniel Handler, writing under the pen name Lemony Snicket, is the New York Times award winning author of the immensely popular young readers’ series, A Series of Unfortunate Events. Since the release of the first title in the series in 1999, more than 60 million copies of the thirteen volume series have been sold. Harder, born in 1970, lives in San...
While researching his first book, The Basic Eight, Handler realized that if he was to receive the sort of “edgy” material that he needed, he would need to operate under a pseudonym. Lemony Snicket’s similarity to Jiminy Cricket was no accident; Snicket is the antithesis of the legendary moralistic wise narrator, a character trait that Handler revea...
The Series of Unfortunate Events follows he lives of three siblings, Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire who are orphaned after their parents are killed in an arson attack on their family home. They are sent to live with their distant cousin, Count Olaf Sonnenfield, who immediately begins to mistreat them. Count Olaf plots to claim their inheritance...

Absurdity follows Snicket everywhere, and no more so than when he recounts his own personal experiences. Snicket comes across as the ultimate in cynics and he usually conveys a vivid feeling of des...
Although the series is clearly written for the young reader, the more mature of us can still engage with the tales. There are numerous adult-only references throughout the story, which might puzzle the more receptive of young readers, but be ignored by the “average” young bookworm. An example being the subtle references to Monty Python sprinkled th...
This series fits into a number of literary genres. Although clearly a children’s fiction work, the works also have clear satiric gothic undertones and the general absurdity of the plot and themes leads one to imagine them as works of absurdist fiction.
Apart from the print book versions, the books are well-adapted to the audiobook form. Most are narrated by Tim Curry, who often plays dark, sinister, cowardly parts in movies, well-befitting the character of Lemony Snicket. An album of thirteen songs (a recurring number throughout the series) performed by Stephen Merritt of the Magnetic Fields is a...
