[英]尼尔·盖曼(1960 ~ )
尼尔·盖曼是近十年来欧美文坛崛起的最耀眼明星,被视为新一代幻想文学的代表人物。其创作领域横跨幻想小说、科幻小说、恐怖小说、儿童小说、漫画及歌词。他的作品不但部部畅销,而且获奖无数。恐怖小说大师斯蒂芬·金称赞他是一个“装满了故事的宝库”。《文学传记辞典》将他列为十大后现代作家之一。
Richard Mayhew is an unassuming young businessman living in London, with a dull job and a pretty but demanding fiancee. Then one night he stumbles across a girl bleeding on the sidewalk. He stops to help her - and the life he knows vanishes like smoke. Several hours later, the girl is gone too. And by the following morning Richard Mayhew has been erased from his world. His bank cards no longer work, taxi drivers won't stop for him, his landlord rents his apartment out to strangers. He has become invisible, and inexplicably consigned to a London of shadows and darkness - to a city of monsters and saints, murderers and angels, that exists entirely in a subterranean labyrinth of sewer canals and abandoned subway stations. He has fallen through the cracks of reality and has landed somewhere different, somewhere that is Neverwhere. For this is the home of Door, the mysterious girl whom Richard rescued in the London Above. A personage of great power and nobility in this murky, candlelit realm, she is on a mission to discover the cause of her family's slaughter, and in doing so preserve this strange underworld kingdom from the malevolence that means to destroy it. And with nowhere else to turn, Richard Mayhew must now join the Lady Door's entourage in their determined - and possibly fatal - quest. For the dread journey ever-downward - through bizarre anachronisms and dangerous incongruities, and into dusty corners of stalled time - is Richard's final hope, his last road back to a "real" world that is growing disturbingly less real by the minute.
最近很喜欢盖曼的书,在我心里才华横溢的他可以与史蒂芬金比肩,虽然他的作品我一共也没看过几部,但我偏爱他的风格,暗黑童话,触动人心中最隐秘的一根弦,以此弹奏出并不华美但无比精致的乐章~ 无有乡,另一个不为人知的国度,现实世界的黑白倒影,比真实更加真实的存在,如...
评分这是我喜欢的尼尔盖曼式的尼尔盖曼故事,有关伦敦的尼尔盖曼童话,尼尔盖曼写他所深爱的伦敦,过去的伦敦现在的伦敦未来的伦敦,这本书的主角是伦敦,沉积在历史中的伦敦。 理查德 梅休 从异乡来到伦敦的年轻人,工作交友恋爱,就像每一个在大城市生活的年轻人,他就是喜欢收集...
评分觉得NG塑造另类世界的能力真的不错,《NEVER WHERE》虽然写得比《AMERICAN GODS》早,不过“下伦敦”这个设定还是很过瘾的,不过对于他塑造任人物的能力,我看完《NEVER WHERE》之后就觉得更怀疑。 理查德跟影子有什么本质的区别么?很奇怪NG笔下成人主角都退缩平凡乃...
评分2016年,科幻作家郝景芳的小说《北京折叠》获得第74届雨果奖最佳中短篇小说奖。小说讲述了22世纪的北京,按照社会阶层被分成三个空间, 48小时的时间按照比例分配给三个空间的人。 获奖消息一出,有不少人站出来说“北京早已折叠”,上层、中产和底层三个阶层的人的物质生活和...
