Anansi Boys pdf epub mobi txt 電子書 下載2025

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."

尼爾·蓋曼 Neil Gaiman，廣受贊譽的小說、漫畫作者，曾贏得無數奬項。

因主題宏大、遼闊疆域、堪稱史詩級的巨作《美國眾神》而傢喻戶曉，而《蛛神男孩》則是一本會讓人微笑的書，有幽默、有詭計、有智慧，還充滿瞭冒險的趣味。

尼爾·蓋曼將自己的這本書描述為“一本魔幻恐怖驚悚鬼魅浪漫喜劇傢庭史詩”，不僅如此，他還機智地將喜劇的本質、快節奏的恐怖小說和犯罪小說的情節融閤起來，使這個有關善惡的故事從錶麵上看起來並沒有深邃的道理，卻在本質上直擊瞭尋常小人物的心靈和他們所經曆著的浪漫傳奇的殘酷。
