Those from Lampedusa posit the possibility of extraordinary events. Similarly, 'Sylvie' depends on extremities of tenderness exemplified by the scene in the Othys section when the narrator and Sylvie, descending the stairs, stage a re-enactment. And in the scene from Dali's novel \u003cem\u003eHidden Faces\u003c\/em\u003e there is something in common with the luminous return to life near the end of \u003cem\u003eThe Count of Monte Cristo\u003c\/em\u003e (which itself has echoes of the rapt statue scene in \u003cem\u003eThe Winter's Tale\u003c\/em\u003e). To render these theatrical interludes in verse is of course an indulgence but also, it is hoped, a tribute and an invitation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Watson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1761090747\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781761090745\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ginninderra Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/17\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.21lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.81h x 5.06w x 0.18d","brand":"John Watson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48486009733375,"sku":"9781761090745","price":15.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_096fa5ea-7dbd-4a8a-84db-4c7827084041.jpg?v=1778053064","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/plagiarisms-john-watson-9781761090745","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
