Big Fish Daniel Wallace Simon & Schuster Ltd

** A MAJOR TIM BURTON FILM starring Ewan Mcgregor and Jessica Lange ** ** COMING SOON AS A MUSICAL starring Kelsey Grammer **Do you ever really know your father?  Like many sons, William Bloom never really knew his father. Edward told him stories too incredible to believe about his exploits as a younger man, but any attempt to find out serious truths have been met with laughter and brush-offs. And that never mattered. But now Edward is dying, suddenly it matters a great deal.  So William sets out to tell his father\'s story, as he imagines it. He tames a giant, is dragged by an enormous fish through a lake and escapes a purgatory of lost dreams. Through legends and myths, William makes Edward into a true Big Fish. The much beloved book by Daniel Wallace is soon to be a Christmas musical at The Other Palace in London.  Praise for Big Fish: \'Daniel Wallace has created a jewel in Big Fish\' Winston Groom, author of Forrest Gump \'Both comic and poignant\' New York Times \'An audacious, highly original debut novel. . .
