Книга: Chris Columbus, Ned Vizzini «House of Secrets»
|
Hailed as "a breakneck, jam-packed roller coaster of an adventure" by J. K. Rowling, this New York Times bestseller is the first installment in the explosive tween fantasy series by famed Hollywood director Chris Columbus (of Harry Potter fame) and bestselling author Ned Vizzini (It's Kind of a Funny Story). Siblings Brendan, Eleanor, and Cordelia Walker once had everything they could ever want. But everything changed when Dr. Walker lost his job. Now the family must relocate to an old Victorian house, formerly the home of occult novelist Denver Kristoff—a house that simultaneously feels creepy and too good to be true. By the time the Walkers realize that one of their neighbors has sinister plans for them, they’re banished to a primeval forest way off the grid. Bloodthirsty medieval warriors patrol the woods around them, supernatural pirates roam the neighboring seas, and a power-hungry queen rules the land. To survive, the siblings will have to be braver than they ever thought... Издательство: "Balzer + Bray" (2013) Формат: 140x210, 512 стр.

Biografie
Im Alter von 15 wurde Columbus durch den Film Der Pate zum Filmemachen inspiriert. Er besuchte die New Yorker Filmschule, in der sein erstes Drehbuch entstand. Nach dem Schulabschluss gelang Columbus der Durchbruch mit seinem vierten Drehbuch, Gremlins – Kleine Monster, das von Joe Dante verfilmt wurde. Er zog nach Los Angeles und schrieb weitere Drehbücher für Steven Spielberg (Die Goonies und Das Geheimnis des verborgenen Tempels). Seine Regiekarriere begann Columbus mit dem Film Die Nacht der Abenteuer. Inzwischen ist er einer der gefragtesten Hollywood-Regisseure und -produzenten und auch dem breiten Publikum durch Filme wie Kevin – Allein zu Haus, Mrs. Doubtfire – Das stachelige Kindermädchen und die Verfilmungen der ersten beiden Harry-Potter-Romane bekannt.
1995 gründete Columbus die Produktionsfirma 1492 Pictures, um fortan darüber Filme zu produzieren.

Ned Vizzini
Edison Price "Ned" Vizzini (born April 4, 1981) is an American writer who is the author of books for young adults. He is best known for his novel Be More Chill. He has been a columnist for the New York Press since his teens.
Contents |
Life and career
Vizzini grew up primarily in the Park Slope neighborhood of Brooklyn in New York City. He attended Stuyvesant High School in Manhattan, graduating in 1999.[1] At fifteen he began to write articles for the New York Press, an alternative newspaper.
After he wrote an essay that was published by The New York Times Magazine, several of his essays about his young adult life ended up being combined into his first book, Teen Angst? Naaah.... Vizzini attended Hunter College, also located in Manhattan. Ned Vizzini currently lives in Los Angeles and continues to write and to speak about his books.[2] Vizzini's characters and situations are said to be based upon his time spent at Stuyvesant.[3]
Books
- Teen Angst? Naaah..., a "quasi-autobiography" that consists of essays about Vizzini's young adult years attending Stuyvesant High School.
- Be More Chill, Vizzini's fiction debut follows the adventures of Jeremy Heere, a terminally "uncool" teenage boy. Jeremy's life changes when he buys a "squip", a pill that gives the user instructions on how to act cool.
- It's Kind of a Funny Story, Vizzini's second novel follows a depressed young man who becomes suicidal and checks himself into a psychiatric hospital. The book was inspired by Vizzini's own brief hospitalization for depression in November 2004, as described in the book's endnotes. Its movie rights were sold to Paramount. The motion picture, starring Keir Gilchrist, Zach Galifianakis, and Emma Roberts and directed by Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, debuted on October 8, 2010.
