尼尔·盖曼 Neil Gaiman,广受赞誉的小说、漫画作者,曾赢得无数奖项。
因主题宏大、辽阔疆域、堪称史诗级的巨作《美国众神》而家喻户晓,而《蛛神男孩》则是一本会让人微笑的书,有幽默、有诡计、有智慧,还充满了冒险的趣味。
尼尔·盖曼将自己的这本书描述为“一本魔幻恐怖惊悚鬼魅浪漫喜剧家庭史诗”,不仅如此,他还机智地将喜剧的本质、快节奏的恐怖小说和犯罪小说的情节融合起来,使这个有关善恶的故事从表面上看起来并没有深邃的道理,却在本质上直击了寻常小人物的心灵和他们所经历着的浪漫传奇的残酷。
One of fiction's most audaciously original talents, Neil Gaiman now gives us a mythology for a modern age -- complete with dark prophecy, family dysfunction, mystical deceptions, and killer birds. Not to mention a lime. Anansi Boys God is dead. Meet the kids. When Fat Charlie's dad named something, it stuck. Like calling Fat Charlie "Fat Charlie." Even now, twenty years later, Charlie Nancy can't shake that name, one of the many embarrassing "gifts" his father bestowed -- before he dropped dead on a karaoke stage and ruined Fat Charlie's life. Mr. Nancy left Fat Charlie things. Things like the tall, good-looking stranger who appears on Charlie's doorstep, who appears to be the brother he never knew. A brother as different from Charlie as night is from day, a brother who's going to show Charlie how to lighten up and have a little fun ... just like Dear Old Dad. And all of a sudden, life starts getting very interesting for Fat Charlie. Because, you see, Charlie's dad wasn't just any dad. He was Anansi, a trickster god, the spider-god. Anansi is the spirit of rebellion, able to overturn the social order, create wealth out of thin air, and baffle the devil. Some said he could cheat even Death himself. Returning to the territory he so brilliantly explored in his masterful New York Times bestseller, American Gods, the incomparable Neil Gaiman offers up a work of dazzling ingenuity, a kaleidoscopic journey deep into myth that is at once startling, terrifying, exhilarating, and fiercely funny -- a true wonder of a novel that confirms Stephen King's glowing assessment of the author as "a treasure-house of story, and we are lucky to have him."
很好玩的书 看着就像一部好莱坞喜剧,迷人的兄弟抢走倒霉的主人公所有风头,最后主人公靠自己的勇气打败恶势力赢得幸福跟兄弟和解。 老套了一点的立意,不过他写起来就是好看啊。 奇幻色彩比较浓的是那个有各种动物的世界,带点冰冷带点残酷又充满想象力,尼尔盖曼的风格么...
评分书看到一半,我已经严重怀疑蜘蛛不过是胖查理的另一个分身而已,这样的故事设置并不鲜见。 在卡尔维诺的《我们的祖先》中“分成两半的男爵”里,一半至善,一半至恶;蜘蛛和胖查理也是两人有着很明显的偏差,也就是说不完美。 所以他们原来都应该是同一个人,最后被强行分开了...
评分如果有人跟你说,只有当你自己做了父母,才能体会父母对你的苦心。也许你会第一百次在心里回答,烦不烦啊你。 一名身为父亲的神,他这德行像个父亲吗?一名身为神的父亲,他这德行又像个神吗?不论从哪个方面看,他都不称职。除了拿他一无是处的儿子开涮。还有那个一直给他带来...
评分 评分看这本书之前, 先翻了American Gods (2001),封底有作者的帅照,内容介绍强大而吸引人,但厚厚一本500多页英文,实在没有精力看下去。而书中提到的Anansi(安纳西蜘蛛神)四年后由作者演变成了小说Anansi Boys。书中讲述了一个非常有趣的故事:生活马马虎虎,将要结婚的男主角...
丰富有趣的好看的故事
