Publisher: DigiCat

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 523
Book Description
David Blaize Trilogy is a series of novels by English author Edward Frederic Benson about the life of a young boy from his early childhood to college years. The first novel in the series is named David Blaize. Set in England before the First World War, the novel describes David's years at prep school and public school, his studies, sports and friendships, and finally, his brush with death when he stops a runaway horse. A second novel, David Blaize and the Blue Door, set in David's early childhood, was published in 1918. In contrast to the first book, it is a children's fantasy influenced by the work of Lewis Carroll, in the style of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, set in a dream landscape permeated with nonsense. David Blaize of King's is Benson's 1924 sequel to David Blaize. It follows David's university career at King's College, Cambridge. Edward Frederic Benson (1867-1940) was an English novelist, biographer, memoirist, archaeologist and short story writer, known professionally as E.F. Benson. His novels feature humorous incidents in the lives of (mainly) upper-middle-class British people in the 1920s and 1930s, vying for social prestige and one-upmanship in an atmosphere of extreme cultural snobbery.

DAVID BLAIZE AND THE BLUE DOOR - A Children's Fantasy Adventure
Author: Edward Frederic Benson
Publisher: Abela Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 8835819164
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
David Blaize and the Blue Door is set in David's early childhood. It is a fantasy adventure in the style of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, set in a dream landscape permeated with jabberwocky type nonsense. The book is in the same children’s fantasy genre as Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland”, “Sylvie and Bruno”, Farrow’s “Adventures Wallypugland series” and Heath Robinson’s “Bill the Minder.” The eight chapters in this book are richly illustrated, and the titles of these give clues to the type of adventure David goes on. Some of the illustrations are titled: “The flame-cats and the black man coming down the chimney”, “The game-cupboard comes to life”, “David finds the mint-man in the bank”, “The recovering of Uncle Popacatapetl”, “The telegram rescues Uncle P. From the mint-man”, “Miss Bones sitting on David’s thumb”, “David uses the telephone in the cow porter’s tail” “Noah pursues David”; and many more whacky characters with equally more strange characteristics. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book is donated to charities. ================ TAGS & KEYWORDS: David Blaize, Blue door, dream, dreamscape, dreamland, sword, bumpity, bottom, adventures, aeroplanes, delicious, candidate, extraordinary, beastly, sir sirloin, london, gold, spectacles, butt, duke, cats whiskers, chimney, telegram, airmen, butler, chauffeur, certificate, fireman, shoemaker, golden, porter, rhyme, gentleman, canon, sovereign, rook, ark, elephant, train, birds, bones, popacatapetl, spider, david blaize, giraffe, miss muffet, brigadier general, noah, Flame cats, black man, chimney, Blue Door, games cupboard, Mint man, bank, Uncle, Rhyme family, Miss Bones, cow porter, bald-headed, lark-flight, Field-Marshal, guard of honour, trout, registry office, marriage
