BREWER'S CURIOUS TITLES tells the often intriguing, and sometimes surprising, stories behind an array of titles of works of literature, music and the visual arts. Arranged in simple A-Z order by title, it explains the meanings of, and reasons for, the titles of more than 1500 famous and not-so-famous novels, films, poems, plays, paintings and works of classical music. Embracing titles as diverse and as baffling as Flann O'Brien's AT SWIM TWO-BIRDS and Salvador Dali's ATMOSPHERIC SKULL SODOMIZING A GRAND PIANO, BREWER'S CURIOUS TITLES serves up a feast of explanation, allusion, quotation and hidden meaning that will satisfy the appetite of the most inquisitive of cultural magpies.
