Michael Chabon (b. 1963) is an acclaimed and bestselling author whose works include the Pulitzer Prize–winning novel The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay (2000). Chabon achieved literary fame at age twenty-four with his first novel, The Mysteries of Pittsburgh (1988), which was a major critical and commercial success. He then published Wonder Boys (1995), another bestseller, which was made into a film starring Michael Douglas. One of America’s most distinctive voices, Chabon has been called “a magical prose stylist” by the New York Times Book Review, and is known for his lively writing, nostalgia for bygone modes of storytelling, and deep empathy for the human predicament.
This brilliant epic novel set in New York and Prague introduces us to two misfit young men who make it big by creating comic-book superheroes. Joe Kavalier, a young artist who has also been trained in the art of Houdiniesque escape, has just smuggled himself out of Nazi-invaded Prague and landed in New York City. His Brooklyn cousin Sammy Clay is looking for a partner to create heroes, stories, and art for the latest novelty to hit America the comic book. Inspired by their own fears and dreams, Kavalier and Clay create the "Escapists," "The Monitor," and "Luna Moth," inspired by the beautiful Rosa Saks, who will become linked by powerful ties to both men.

說他象錢德勒恐怕是穿鑿附會地以謬傳謬居多,說嚮錢脫帽緻敬我倒是同意。而大段的長句,華麗的辭藻,生動的比喻,性格復雜的豐潤人物……讓我想起的是:F.Scott Fitzgerald 弗·司各特·菲茨傑拉德。 最近心緒不寜,把這本原先附庸風雅囫圇吞棗草草過場的好書再拿齣來慢慢看一...
評分《卡瓦利與剋雷的神奇冒險》是一本頗有點厚重的書,拿在手裏沉甸甸的,捧讀時間長瞭還真有點纍,不過卻是一本值得玩味咀嚼的似乎是傳記又似乎隻是虛構的小說! 說該書是傳記,實在是因為作者在文內對自己所描述與提到的一些人物、事件、刊物等所做的腳注,讓讀者,準...
評分美國作傢邁剋爾•夏邦(Michael Chabon)榮獲普利策小說奬的長篇作品《卡瓦利與剋雷的神奇冒險The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay》。故事從一九三九年末《動作漫畫》方興未艾講起,以一九五四年春季參議院針對漫畫召開的聽證會收尾,橫跨如今所知的美漫史上的”黃金...
評分這本小說就像一杯放瞭很多糖的咖啡,寫的是苦難和艱險曆程之類的故事,錶現的卻是溫暖的友誼、愛和正義。主角卡瓦利和剋雷是一對猶太錶兄弟,1938年,卡瓦利為瞭逃脫瞭納粹的迫害從德國來到美國,寄居在錶弟剋雷傢中。卡瓦利身負逃脫術絕技且有很高的繪畫天賦,剋雷則是編故事...
評分邁剋爾·夏邦的這個故事絕對稱得上是一部“美國漫畫史”——至少在內容和厚度上是如此。不過,在三天時間內經曆瞭喬·卡瓦利與山米·剋雷15年幾乎長達500頁的冒險,在邁剋爾·夏邦時而詼諧時而深沉的敘述中,我徹底拋棄瞭那個本應是主綫的逃脫俠,最終的結論卻是意外地把魔像...
