Do you recall that Charlie Bucket found the last gold ticket for a tour of the Willy Wonka chocolate factory on January 31, or that Lemuel Gulliver departed from Lilliput on September 24, or that Jean Valjean fell into the sea and was presumed drowned on November 16? This very literary collection of 365 all-new favourite fictional dates is drawn from classic and contemporary books and movies. Each week in the 2005 edition of The Book of Fictional Days is accompanied by a classic illustration or engraving of a literary personage by artist Barry Moser. There is ample space for each day so that you can keep track of all the very real events in your life.
