Every Day a Little Death: Crime Fiction Inspired by the Songs of Stephen Sondheim
Description
Well, nothing...unless you remember that Sweeny Todd is the story of a murderous barber, and Assassins is the story of multiple killers and would-be killers, and Into the Woods tells the story of a wolf who eats grandmothers, and The Last of Sheila-not a musical comedy for the stage but a devious whodunnit Sondheim co-wrote with Anthony Perkins for the screen-won the Mystery Writers of America's Edgar Allan Poe Award for the best mystery film of 1973.
In Every Day a Little Death, twenty authors-some from the world of crime fiction, some from the world of the theater-use Sondheim's lyrics as the inspiration for twenty tales of malfeasance, misdemeanor...and murder.
