Dust Jacket has wrinkles and small tears. Title page has misspelled the illustrator on title page, Mark instead of Marc Simont. The 13 Clocks is a fantasy tale written by James Thurber in 1950, while he was completing one of his other novels. It is written in a unique cadenced style, in which a mysterious prince must complete a seemingly impossible task to free a maiden from the clutches of an evil duke. It invokes many fairy tale motifs
