David Mazzucchelli has been making comics his whole life. Known chiefly for his collaborations - with Frank Miller on seminal Batman and Daredevil stories, and with Paul Karasik on an adaptation of Paul Auster's novel, City of Glass - he began publishing his own stories in 1991 in his anthology magazine, Rubber Blanket. Since then his short comics have been published in books and magazines around the world. Asterios Polyp is his first graphic novel, and has won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and been listed as a New York Times notable book.
The triumphant return of one of comics’ greatest talents, with an engrossing story of one man’s search for love, meaning, sanity, and perfect architectural proportions. An epic story long awaited, and well worth the wait.
Meet Asterios Polyp: middle-aged, meagerly successful architect and teacher, aesthete and womanizer, whose life is wholly upended when his New York City apartment goes up in flames. In a tenacious daze, he leaves the city and relocates to a small town in the American heartland. But what is this “escape” really about?
As the story unfolds, moving between the present and the past, we begin to understand this confounding yet fascinating character, and how he’s gotten to where he is. And isn’t. And we meet Hana: a sweet, smart, first-generation Japanese American artist with whom he had made a blissful life. But now she’s gone. Did Asterios do something to drive her away? What has happened to her? Is she even alive? All the questions will be answered, eventually.
In the meantime, we are enthralled by Mazzucchelli’s extraordinarily imagined world of brilliantly conceived eccentrics, sharply observed social mores, and deftly depicted asides on everything from design theory to the nature of human perception.
Asterios Polyp is David Mazzucchelli’s masterpiece: a great American graphic novel.

评分 评分好看,强烈安利。最近才发现有一种表达是图像的,视觉语言的。这种更具象,有时击中我心中所想更快。很喜欢,准备以后多多摄入。 看这本时,终于领悟:世界与人都是复杂的,复杂意味着立体,多面。而很多事的探讨不是绝对与极端的问题,而是相对与程度的问题。在两个极端点黑与...
评分Graphic novel 原来可以这样好。看到一半觉得是神作,看到最后居然还有温情的感动。探讨了艺术,哲学,人性,社会和生活。每个画面都是经过设计的,从构图到色彩。叙述方式很绝妙,梦境穿插很绝妙,人物对话很绝妙,作者不是天才是神马?!
评分第一次看欧漫,感觉没有后浪宣传的那么神,但不失一本很有趣的书。讲一个中年危机中的建筑师在被雷劈房子烧了之后放飞自我的一系列故事(以及和回忆的交织叙述)。感觉最出彩的是呈现方式,各方面都有精巧设计,比如不同的颜色的寓意,不同的人会有不同的符号化的画风,对话气泡里所用的字体也有所区别;在两人深入交流时颜色和画风就开始互相渗透。还有许多精巧的伏笔,如果重看可能会有更多,但是其巧妙之处在于伏笔和呼应都恰到好处,并没有啰啰嗦嗦地重复说明,但又刚好能让你记住一些小细节,并在合适的地方resolve,说不定还会给一些惊喜。比如主角一开始在看的录像、多次出现的不同情况下的客厅、主角在火灾时拿走的瑞士军刀等等。总之表现力很强。不过主角和他双胞胎兄弟的故事我没看太明白,看到大家在说二元论,不知道是不是讲这个。

评分这部才华横溢的作品很好的解释了为什么漫画是可以超越电影的艺术形式。
