I make things up and write them down. Which takes us from comics (like SANDMAN) to novels (like ANANSI BOYS and AMERICAN GODS) to short stories (some are collected in SMOKE AND MIRRORS) and to occasionally movies (like Dave McKean's MIRRORMASK or the NEVERWHERE TV series, or my own short film A SHORT FILM ABOUT JOHN BOLTON).
In my spare time I read and sleep and eat and try to keep the blog at www.neilgaiman.com more or less up to date.

我不说这本书。也不说尼尔·盖曼。 当对《石头记》《灵谿词说》一知半解的时候,我在昆德拉马尔克斯等一帮人的笔致下惊心动魄。 我托着脸望着他们。 郑姐姐正在摆谈,诗人在这个时代还没饿死,这真是个奇迹。 熊大大转了转手上的金戒指,楚辞洛神东坡肘子,一口茶后,一一信...
评分 评分这些年下来,尼尔盖曼的书断断续续也看了不少。印象中它们大多是温暖的,这种温暖可以包裹在传说故事中(《星尘》),也可以经由惊悚悬疑的调调慢慢抽丝剥茧引出(《蜘蛛男孩》),甚至可以以哥特的风格呈现出来(《坟场之书》)。题材风格于小说只是一种表现形式,而作者...
评分有剧透有剧透有剧透有剧透有剧透有剧透 故事是简单的。展开是神奇的。缅怀是惆怅的。细思是略恐的。 一开始平常,主角回家参加一个葬礼,始终没提是谁的葬礼。 然后他回忆七岁那年发生的一件事。盖曼的惊悚常态出现。小猫被压死了...房客自杀了...邻居不寻常-----都用平常...

Sussex, England. A middle-aged man returns to his childhood home to attend a funeral. Although the house he lived in is long gone, he is drawn to the farm at the end of the road, where, when he was seven, he encountered a most remarkable girl, Lettie Hempstock, and her mother and grandmother. He hasn't thought of Lettie in decades, and yet as he sits by the pond (a pond that she'd claimed was an ocean) behind the ramshackle old farmhouse, the unremembered past comes flooding back. And it is a past too strange, too frightening, too dangerous to have happened to anyone, let alone a small boy.
Forty years earlier, a man committed suicide in a stolen car at this farm at the end of the road. Like a fuse on a firework, his death lit a touchpaper and resonated in unimaginable ways. The darkness was unleashed, something scary and thoroughly incomprehensible to a little boy. And Lettie—magical, comforting, wise beyond her years—promised to protect him, no matter what.
A groundbreaking work from a master, The Ocean at the End of the Lane is told with a rare understanding of all that makes us human, and shows the power of stories to reveal and shelter us from the darkness inside and out. It is a stirring, terrifying, and elegiac fable as delicate as a butterfly's wing and as menacing as a knife in the dark.
3.5 虽然叙述角度是儿童但是这么黑的细节你确定这个是给孩子看的吗?笔下世界依旧精彩不过因为设定所限所有格局小了很多。三代Hempstock三位一体,祖母,母亲,女儿;过去,现在,未来。生于这个世界,我们只是过客。就像童年那朦胧宏大的冒险,在开出drive way之后,变得再次无法触及。Lattie回归了ocean,而我们,不管怎么尝试,只会记得她去了澳洲。就如同耳朵一边是白色的小黑猫一样,她们是永存的,出现又离开的是我们。

评分看的译文版,我看过的几部NG大叔作品里最差的......
评分读的时候不停怀疑“他是不是发挥失常了”“这次写得太平常了”;可当我读完整本合上书那之后的整整一天,都还沉浸在故事的气氛和情绪里无法自拔。不得不说这次的老梗用得非常常规流式化,但是盖曼的本事就是这样的:在最通俗最常见的桥段里细细浸满了悲伤、哀恸、希望、绝望,以及细微的快乐和坚定,而这一切又都被无法言明的温柔包裹在其中。他的故事本身就是海洋。Thank God we have Neil Gaiman, his soft soft heart and grief feelings.
评分尼尔·盖曼真喜欢写这种毫·无·背·景·可·言的小说啊,读者不是想在神话、历史或者其他作品中找reference吗?“诶嘿嘿我就是不让你们找得到~~~” ……= =。不过这本里对男孩子恐惧心理的描写真不错,能让人有切肤之感。
