Michael Chabon (b. 1963) is an acclaimed and bestselling author whose works include the Pulitzer Prize–winning novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay (2000). Chabon achieved literary fame at age twenty-four with his first novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (1988), which was a major critical and commercial success. He then published Wonder Boys (1995), another bestseller, which was made into a film starring Michael Douglas. One of America’s most distinctive voices, Chabon has been called “a magical prose stylist” by the New York Times Book Review, and is known for his lively writing, nostalgia for bygone modes of storytelling, and deep empathy for the human predicament.
This brilliant epic novel set in New York and Prague introduces us to two misfit young men who make it big by creating comic-book superheroes. Joe Kavalier, a young artist who has also been trained in the art of Houdiniesque escape, has just smuggled himself out of Nazi-invaded Prague and landed in New York City. His Brooklyn cousin Sammy Clay is looking for a partner to create heroes, stories, and art for the latest novelty to hit America the comic book. Inspired by their own fears and dreams, Kavalier and Clay create the "Escapists," "The Monitor," and "Luna Moth," inspired by the beautiful Rosa Saks, who will become linked by powerful ties to both men.

评分《卡瓦利与克雷的神奇冒险》是一本颇有点厚重的书,拿在手里沉甸甸的,捧读时间长了还真有点累,不过却是一本值得玩味咀嚼的似乎是传记又似乎只是虚构的小说! 说该书是传记,实在是因为作者在文内对自己所描述与提到的一些人物、事件、刊物等所做的脚注,让读者,准...
评分在当代美国文坛,迈克尔·夏邦绝对算得上最受瞩目的幸运儿。这位生于1963年的华盛顿人凭借小说《匹茲堡的秘密》一炮而红,1988年的他不仅创下新人出道最高预付稿费的纪录,更被誉为塞林格接班人,可谓红极一时。但是在强手林立新人辈出的美国文坛,只靠一招鲜吃遍天下显然是不...
