A king with failing eyesight sends two men out into the world to collect stories of the books he can no longer read; upon their return, the two men spend thirteen nights recounting the tales to the king.
The Neverending Book is a strange little book, made up of short vignettes about imaginary books. The fanciful tales alternate between whimsical, creepy, thought-provoking, and poignant. It reminds me a bit of Calvino.
