Brian Selznick's book The Marvels is a narrative puzzle told in two parts: a lengthy, illustrated story beginning in 1766 about the Marvel family of actors, and a prose story starting in 1990 where a runaway boy named Joseph Jervis searches for clues in his uncle's house. The book explores themes of family, storytelling, and the blurry line between fact and fiction, as it connects these two seemingly separate narratives to reveal a multigenerational saga.
