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 评分迈克尔·夏邦的这个故事绝对称得上是一部“美国漫画史”——至少在内容和厚度上是如此。不过,在三天时间内经历了乔·卡瓦利与山米·克雷15年几乎长达500页的冒险,在迈克尔·夏邦时而诙谐时而深沉的叙述中,我彻底抛弃了那个本应是主线的逃脱侠,最终的结论却是意外地把魔像...
评分 评分说他象钱德勒恐怕是穿凿附会地以谬传谬居多,说向钱脱帽致敬我倒是同意。而大段的长句,华丽的辞藻,生动的比喻,性格复杂的丰润人物……让我想起的是:F.Scott Fitzgerald 弗·司各特·菲茨杰拉德。 最近心绪不宁,把这本原先附庸风雅囫囵吞枣草草过场的好书再拿出来慢慢看一...
