A Little Story About Maurice Ravel

Fiction. In this highly imaginative, delightful tale, the great composer Maurice Ravel gets lost and waylaid on a journey to Spain, which he has never before seen. Unfortunately the fact that he is tiny, the size of a mere doll, gets him into misadventures and troubles galore. The author displays genuine affection for the historical character of Ravel, but immerses him in a humorous fictional milieu akin to that of Todd Michael Cox’sDizzlemuck, E. B. White’s Stuart Little, Mary Norton’s The Borrowers, and Walter de la Mare’sMemoirs of a Midget.
