The 13 Clocks is the perfect marriage of subject and style, mixing puns and nonsense as it plunges through the carefully crafted plot" "Mr. Thurber has done it again, though I don't know just what it is he has done this time--a fairy tale, a comment on human cruelty and human sweetness or a spell, an incantation compounded of poetry and logic and wit." First lineOnce upon a time, in a gloomy castle on a lonely hill, where there were thirteen clocks that wouldn't go, there lived a cold, aggressive Duke, and his niece, the Princess Saralinda. AnnotationIn this witty fable, the minstrel prince wins the heart of the evil Duke's ward Selinda, and in order to delay the day of her leaving, the Duke stops all the clocks in his castle. The prince must not only save her, but also get the clocks ticking again.
