Cornelia Funke has: Played herself in "NDR Talk Show" in 1979. Played herself in "Menschen" in 1982. Played herself in "Mein Leben" in 2001. Played herself in "Miradas 2" in 2004. Played Herself - Winner in "Bambi Verleihung 2008" in 2008.
Large parts of the novel take place in Italy and the surrounding European countryside. Notice "Signora". It's Italian and Spanish. Also the names like Fenoglio (as well as the pronunciation in the movie). We are given the impression that Mortimer and Meggie move around a lot, however, and their nationality is never truly addressed. Cornelia Funke is German, however.

Yes, unique and very well written.Book description by Borders: "Description: One cruel night, Meggie's father reads aloud from a book called "Inkheart," and an evil ruler escapes the boundaries of fiction and lands in their living room. Suddenly, Meggie is smack in the middle of the kind of adventure she has only read about in books"vultrae:im only ten and i like it its so good! basta is so mean!One of the greatest books of all time(Except for Harry Potter.)Inkheart is a brilliant story filled with imagination an love. There are three books to the series, Inkheart, Inkspell, and Inkdeath. It is about a girl who lives with her father in a cluttered and unorganized household until they have to flee and head south from the evil Capricorn. Personally I think it's a little slow at the beginning, but it gets better towards the middle, so don't turn away from the book! :O-Misty Woods Library Reviews
