LIGHT INTO INK is available to buy in a choice of two editions: a DeLuxe Edition (white jacket) with full-colour interior, and a Midnight Edition (black jacket) in glorious monochrome. Exhaustive and informative, LIGHT INTO INK is an indispensable addition to any film-lover’s bookshelf. Including background data on authors and publishers, detailed analysis of exclusive content, and extensive extracts from the novels themselves – including some translated into English for the very first time – LIGHT INTO INK is extensively illustrated with reproductions of jacket art, film posters and more.
Beginning with a detailed history of the phenomenon, charting its evolution from theatre to film (and beyond), LIGHT INTO INK explores the enduring appeal of the form and, in the process, seeks to answer that age-old question: is the film novelization inherently moronic? Taking 50 examples of the form – including titles as diverse as Forbidden Planet, Taxi Driver, Performance and Mad Max – LIGHT INTO INK examines each book in depth, evaluating their success both as cross-media adaptations and as ‘Alternative Histories’: prose reinventions of the film narrative, which reshape their source in sometimes startling new ways. From Children of the Damned to Liquid Sky: The Novel, LIGHT INTO INK is the first major critical survey of the film novelization, or movie tie-in.
