具体描述
Welcome to a new strange world.
In a dazzling work of graphic fiction, a surreal journey through a wonderland eerily like real life, The Book of Leviathan chronicles an infant's investigations into life's great mysteries. Endowed with a preternatural interest in metaphysics and philosophy, yet as confused as any innocent by the vagaries of adult behavior, little Levi bears the added burden of living in a world that can literally change at the stroke of a pen.
Aided by a wise pet ("Cat") and a favorite toy ("Bunny"), Levi encounters a frothing ectoplasmic Hegel and a woefully off-the-mark Freud. In less heady adventures, Levi contemplates why his parents disappear at night (and whether he is wholeheartedly pleased when they return each morning); the regrettable liberties taken with the English language; and the relationship between Bennetton and Pablo Neruda.
Peter Blegvad's Book of Leviathan assembles the cream from Levi and Cat's adventures, published in The Independent on Sunday newspaper in the twilight years of the old Millennium. Blegvad's darkly humorous work has been described by Matt Groening as "one of the weirdest things I've ever stared at". Quirky and referential, dark and droll by turn, it follows the faceless baby Levi's journeys into and out of the world. They are escapes, but as some sage once observed, only a jailer would consider the term "escapist" pejorative.

读后感
1 用鬼婴表达文艺观的人。第1章就写的是奥菲欧的神话传说，有点个意思。 这鸟书没页码，我引第2个故事的开头，鬼婴说：“我现在就可以预见到我的未来，我从很好进步到更好，直到最好。我要积累乖宝宝才有的小红花，直到……小红花富翁。” 你会惊讶，用如此短暂的篇幅，就制造...
评分Q：你为什么会想到一个小婴儿叫作“利维坦”呢？ A：灵感来源于我自己的孩子们——他们出生了，你把他们带回家，从此他们变得比你生命中任何事情都更加巨大。 Q：你为什么把利维坦的父母换成猫呢？ A：因为猫更容易画啊。 文：拉菲·扎博 第一次在《星期日独立报》上看到彼得·...
评分彼得·布雷瓦是那种乱洒金点子的作家，一边让人瞠目结舌，一边让人恨得牙痒痒。一本讲小婴儿的漫画怎么让人看得毛骨悚然？他做到了。难说这是不是漫画：比起漫画它文学味儿多了点，比起小说它字少了点。字数少并不意味着它引起的联想就少。一页纸足够让你的脑子疯狂转上好几圈...
评分???? 一本脑洞大开的漫画书，主角是一个没有表情的婴儿。够怪，够奇，够猎奇。将语言，典故，哲学糅在一起，不断跳跃，简直像嗑药后的幻象。（没嗑过，猜的） 结尾也还算温馨，有两句话很感人： *幸福与否不在于庞大的所得，而在于渺小的欲望。 *满怀希望的旅途要比到达目的地...
评分利维坦是什么？百度上说“Leviathan”的字意为裂缝，在《圣经》中是象征邪恶的一种海怪，在基督教中利维坦是恶魔的代名词，并被冠以七大罪之一的“嫉妒”。1651年霍布斯有本据说是王室的基础教材、国王的必读书，名叫《利维坦》，又被译成《巨灵论》，它用海兽来比喻君主专制政...
