John Fowles wrote five compelling stories later made into motion pictures. This book examines for the first time the film and video adaptations of these stories, as well as Fowles's role in adapting his literary genius to visual media. This book gives deserved recognition to Fowles as a contributor to cinema, a medium he both loved and distrusted, where his stories acquired vivid alternative lives.
