This lively and accessible textbook, written by an expert in film studies, provides a fascinating introduction to the process and art of literature-to-film adaptations.


  • Provides a lively, rigorous, and clearly written account of key moments in the history of the novel from Don Quixote and Robinson Crusoe up to Lolita and One Hundred Years of Solitude
  • Includes diversity of topics and titles, such as Fielding, Nabokov, and Cervantes in adaptations by Welles, Kubrick, and the French New Wave
  • Emphasizes both the literary texts themselves and their varied transtextual film adaptations
  • Examines numerous literary trends – from the self-conscious novel to magic realism – before exploring the cinematic impact of the movement
  • Reinvigorates the field of adaptation studies by examining it through the grid of contemporary theory
  • Brings novels and film adaptations into the age of multiculturalism, postcoloniality, and the Internet by reflecting on their contemporary relevance.
