The Ocean at the End of the Lane pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
Sussex, England. A middle-aged man returns to his childhood home to attend a funeral. Although the house he lived in is long gone, he is drawn to the farm at the end of the road, where, when he was seven, he encountered a most remarkable girl, Lettie Hempstock, and her mother and grandmother. He hasn't thought of Lettie in decades, and yet as he sits by the pond (a pond that she'd claimed was an ocean) behind the ramshackle old farmhouse, the unremembered past comes flooding back. And it is a past too strange, too frightening, too dangerous to have happened to anyone, let alone a small boy.
Forty years earlier, a man committed suicide in a stolen car at this farm at the end of the road. Like a fuse on a firework, his death lit a touchpaper and resonated in unimaginable ways. The darkness was unleashed, something scary and thoroughly incomprehensible to a little boy. And Lettie—magical, comforting, wise beyond her years—promised to protect him, no matter what.
A groundbreaking work from a master, The Ocean at the End of the Lane is told with a rare understanding of all that makes us human, and shows the power of stories to reveal and shelter us from the darkness inside and out. It is a stirring, terrifying, and elegiac fable as delicate as a butterfly's wing and as menacing as a knife in the dark.
I make things up and write them down. Which takes us from comics (like SANDMAN) to novels (like ANANSI BOYS and AMERICAN GODS) to short stories (some are collected in SMOKE AND MIRRORS) and to occasionally movies (like Dave McKean's MIRRORMASK or the NEVERWHERE TV series, or my own short film A SHORT FILM ABOUT JOHN BOLTON).
In my spare time I read and sleep and eat and try to keep the blog at www.neilgaiman.com more or less up to date.
读的时候不停怀疑“他是不是发挥失常了”“这次写得太平常了”;可当我读完整本合上书那之后的整整一天,都还沉浸在故事的气氛和情绪里无法自拔。不得不说这次的老梗用得非常常规流式化,但是盖曼的本事就是这样的:在最通俗最常见的桥段里细细浸满了悲伤、哀恸、希望、绝望,以及细微的快乐和坚定,而这一切又都被无法言明的温柔包裹在其中。他的故事本身就是海洋。Thank God we have Neil Gaiman, his soft soft heart and grief feelings.
评分在亚马逊上买的的第一本书,第一本塞进Kindle的书,第一本读完的盖曼的原文书,太有纪念意义了。

评分海里那段非常美,总感觉那个pond是子宫的隐喻,特别是“So you used to know everything?" "Everybody did."那段。盖曼自己念的有声书小孩子和老太太的声调处理得很好,还献歌两段XDDD

车道尽头的海洋,直接看名字真不知道什么意思。某次买书看到尼尔盖曼的名字就带回来了,儿子说应该支持姚海军,姚是这套世界奇幻大师丛书的主编。如果我当时看到《坟场之书》《美国众神》可能还是会选更著名的那两本。 书只有220页,开本也不大,方便携带,所以...

评分这是最新一期的译文版的主打长篇。 译文版在长达半年的时间里一直都被我放在洗手间的柜子里,每次如厕的时候拿出来看,看几页放下也不觉得可惜,一个月的时间看完一本然后再看新的,故事也越来越沉闷。直到遇到《车道尽头的海洋》。 盖曼大叔的作品陆陆续续读过一些,但没那一...
