Howl's Moving Castle
Howl's Moving Castle is a fantasy novel
by British author Diana Wynne Jones, first published in 1986 by
Greenwillow Books of New York. It was a runner-up for the annual Boston Globe–Horn Book Award and
it won the Phoenix Award twenty years later,
recognizing its rise from relative obscurity. In
2004 it was adapted as ananimated film of the same name, which was
nominated for the Academy Award for Best Animated
Feature.
Howl's Moving Castle is the first novel in the series of
books called the Howl Series. This series also includesCastle in the Air, published in 1990,
and House of Many Ways, published in 2008. WorldCat reports
that Howl's Moving Castle is the author's work most widely
held in participating libraries, followed by its first sequel Castle in
the Air.
For the idea Jones "very much" thanked "a boy
in a school I was visiting", whose name she had noted but lost and
forgotten. He had "asked me to write a book titled The Moving Castle."

Product Description
For the first time on
Blu-ray, Disney proudly presents a remarkable Studio Ghibli film from Academy
Award(R)-winning director Hayao Miyazaki (Best Animated Feature, 2002, SPIRITED
AWAY). HOWL'S MOVING CASTLE soars like never before with a new HD digital
transfer and perfect picture and sound! Sophie, a quiet girl working in a hat
shop, finds her life thrown into turmoil when she is literally swept off her
feet by a handsome but mysterious wizard named Howl. The vain and vengeful
Witch of the Waste, jealous of their friendship, puts a spell on Sophie. In a
life-changing adventure, Sophie climbs aboard Howl's magnificent moving castle
and enters a magical world on a quest to break the spell. Featuring the voice
talents of Christian Bale and Billy Crystal, Miyazaki's artistry comes to life
with inventive characters, unique storytelling and richly detailed animation.
Your whole family will love this epic fantasy on Disney Blu-ray!
Like a dream, Howl's
Moving Castle carries audiences to vistas beyond their imaginations
where they experience excitement, adventure, terror, humor, and romance. With
domestic box office receipts of over $210 million, Howl passed
Miyazaki's Princess Mononoke to become the #3 film in Japanese
history, behind his Spirited Away and James Cameron's Titanic.
Based on a juvenile novel by Diana Wynne Jones, Howl's Moving Castle marks
the first time Miyazaki has adapted another writer's work since Kiki's
Delivery Service (1989). Sophie, a 19-year-old girl who believes she
is plain, has resigned herself to a drab life in her family's hat shop--until
the Witch of the Waste transforms her into a 90-year-old woman. In her aged
guise, Sophie searches for a way to break the Witch's spell and finds
unexpected adventures. Like Chihiro, the heroine of Spirited Away,
Sophie discovers her hidden potential in a magical environment--the castle of
the title. Using CG, Miyazaki creates a ramshackle structure that looks like it
might disintegrate at any moment. Sophie's honesty and determination win her
some valuable new friends: Markl, Howl's young apprentice; a jaunty scarecrow;
Calcifer, a temperamental fire demon; and Heen, a hilarious, wheezing dog. She
wins the heart of the dashing, irresponsible wizard Howl, and brings an end an
unnecessary and destructive war. The film overflows with eclipsing visuals that
range from frightening aerial battles to serene landscapes, and few recent
features--animated or live action--offer as much magic as Howl's Moving
Castle. --Charles Solomon --This text refers to the DVD edition.
