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.

从技术层面来讲,这就是一部伦敦建设的简史说明。从神圣罗马帝国开始,伦敦是如何建造起了围墙;历代君主如何在泰晤士河沿岸修建村落、集市、街道、城市,以至发展到今天成为了国际大都市。地下的建设远远晚于地上的发展。大约在维多利亚时代,由于泰晤士河实在承受不住工业和...
評分当你每天早晨睁开双眼,刷牙洗脸,吃过早饭,挤上公交,坐在座位上,倒上一杯咖啡,打开电脑,开始一天惯常的生活之时,你甚至都不会想到,自己每天都在进行着的普通的生活方式是怎么样的,又有何不妥?我们所在的城市,将我们每个人都训练成一个按照固定路线行进的人偶。直到...
評分读完《乌有乡》,真的是会心一笑的感觉。尼尔·盖曼就像和我相处多年的那位老朋友一样,写我所想,述我所思。 小时候总要骑着自行车上学,一天从上学到放学,飞速蹬着脚踏车,一共四趟,时间久了,我自然对此心生厌恶。那时候我特别喜欢在闲暇无事时躺在床上,幻想自己拥有一张...
