Book Description

Newly reissued for holiday gift giving, this collection of charmingly weird tales is conjured up from the unique imagination of the acclaimed filmmaker. Full color.

Amazon.com

This unassuming hardcover in black buckram with a dark lavender title plate is the door into a world of twisted pleasures. Filmmaker Tim Burton (Edward Scissorhands, Beetlejuice, The Nightmare Before Christmas) tells 23 winsomely macabre stories about boys and girls who don't fit in. Their bodies are misshapen, their habits are odd, and their parents are appalled by them. But they do try hard to be human, like poor unwanted Mummy Boy, who's "a bundle of gauze": he goes for a walk in the park with his mummy dog. Some kids are having "a birthday party for a Mexican girl." They think Mummy Boy is a pi?ata: "They took a baseball bat and whacked open his head. Mummy Boy fell to the ground; he finally was dead. Inside of his head were no candy or prizes, just a few stray beetles of various sizes." For all its simple humor, The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & Other Stories is a peculiarly disturbing book about the violence that children suffer. It is illustrated in pen and ink, watercolor, and crayon. The themes and imagery are at a young-adult to adult level.

读后感

蒂姆伯顿出童话诗集不算意外，因为他一直在用镜头写哥特风格的诗歌，他电影中风格化的精致细节，总能让你不知不觉置身哥特世界，不问真实与幻境。这本小诗集同样如此——你不会问，怎么会有男孩眼睛里长钉子？怎么会有人生出机器人男孩、牡蛎男孩、木乃伊男孩？悄无声息...  

“丑就在美的身旁，畸形靠近着优美，丑怪藏在崇高背后，善与恶并存，光明与黑暗相伴。” 刚看到《牡蛎男孩忧郁之死》的书名后，第一时间便想起了雨果在《克伦威尔•序》中说的这么一句话。看了几页试读的PDF以后，更是笃定地将这句话作为了打开整体书秘密的一把小钥匙。 《牡...  

前面的几个网上随便找都有翻译 后面的我索性自己也给翻了 翻得不好 大家将就看就行了：） http://www.douban.com/note/29594408/ 其实就是各种 残缺的人 忧郁的人 畸形的人 不自信的人 有些和别人不太一样的人 带着有些傻头傻脑的愿望 来到这个世界上  

谈起电影界的奇才导演蒂姆•伯顿，人们习惯性地为他贴上了诸如“电影鬼才”、“哥特恐怖奇情大师”等等之类的标签。确实，他的电影，诡异中透露纯真，嗜血而又痛快淋漓；流畅与冷峻并存，阴森中又漫溢着华丽与激情。剪刀手爱德华的爱与失落，机器的冰冷与鲜花的温...  

这是个残酷的童话世界 充斥着不可思议的主角和他们神奇的痛苦人生 牡蛎男孩不能变成人类,最后被他爸爸吃掉了 巫毒女孩不能爱人,否则针会深扎进她的心里 炭灰男孩被误认为是壁炉里的脏东西，扫到街上去了 木棍男孩和火柴之间燃起爱火,真的焚烧了自己 锚小孩带着他那被爱人抛弃...  

用户评价

感觉Tim Burton的童话绘本都有毒哈哈哈，非常具有个人风格 Chris

Words writ in the sand promised Jesus would save. But his memory was lost with one high-tide wave.

本来想看点东西治愈下，谁知依然不妙。。喜欢The Girl Who Turned into a Bed Roy, the Toxic Boy AND Anchor Baby

终于出中文版了

这个世界给那些漂亮孩子太多的爱，却彻底忽视那些奇怪的孩子。
