Follow the tale of a beloved Christmas toy and his battles against the evil Mouse King from origin, to retelling, to adaptation and translation in The Nutcracker Treasury.Containing four major versions of the work, The Nutcracker Treasury features the original tale by E.T.A. Hoffman, The Nutcracker and the Mouse King (1816); the retelling, The History of a Nutcracker(1847) by Alexandre Dumas; the adaptation for stage, The Magic Nutcracker (1925); and a self-proclaimed, “translation, mutilation, and termination,” Princess Pirlipatine and the Nutcracker (1919) by O. Eliphaz Keat.Professionally typeset with a beautifully designed cover, this exclusive edition of The Nutcracker Treasury is a classic Christmas tale, reimagined for modern readers.
Bringing together one original story and three subsequent retellings, The Nutcracker Omnibus features the work of two influential storytellers—E.T.A Hoffman, who is recognized as a leading figure in German Romanticism and a pioneer of science fiction and fantasy; and Alexandre Dumas, who was one of the most universally read French authors and is known his extravagantly adventurous historical novels—as well as the renowned composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, whose work made him the first Russian composer to attract international acclaim; and a children’s book author, O. Eliphaz Keat, whose only listed work is Princess Pirlipatine and the Nutcracker.
