Lemony Snicket, página 2 de 5

f you have ever heard an orchestra play, then you know that musicians are most certainly guilty of something. Where exactly were the violins on the night in question? Did anyone see the harp? Is the trumpet protesting a bit too boisterously?In this perplexing murder mystery, everyone seems to have a motive, everyone has an alibi, and nearly everyone is a musical instrument. But the composer is still dead.

A hardcover, foil-stamped, full-colour illustrated title well-suited for giving, receiving, or clutching selfishly in trembling hands! Latkes are potato pancakes served at Hanukkah, and Lemony Snicket is an alleged childrens author For the first time in literary history, these two elements are combined in one book...

Dear Reader, I hope, for your sake, that you have not chosen to read this book because you are in the mood for a pleasant experience. If this is the case, I advise you to put this book down instantaneously, because of all of the books describing the unhappy lives of the Baudelaire orphans, The Miserable Mill might be the unhappiest yet. Violet, Klaus and Sunny Baudelaire are sent to Paltryville to work in a lumbermill, and they find disaster and misforunte lurking behind every log. The pages of this book, I'm sorry to inform you, contain such unpleasantries as a giant pincher machine, a bad casserole, a man with a cloud of smoke where his head should be, a hypnotist, a terrible accident resulting in injury, and coupons. I have promised to write down the entire history of these three poor children, but you haven't, so if you prefer stories that are more heartwarming, please feel free to make another selection. With all due respect, Lemony Snicket.

En esta segunda entrega, los hermanos Baudelaire son enviados a vivir con su tío Monty, un experto en serpientes que vive y trabaha en un laboratorio, Stephano, el nuevo empleado, se parece peligrosamente al malvado Olaf... Una historia de humor escalofriante, narrada con ritmo trepidante
