Matt Haig suffered a breakdown in his early twenties. After battling depression for a long while he turned to writing. He now believes that reading and writing books saved his life, and believes that 'in a world trying to increasingly isolate us from our environment and our true selves, books are our route to freedom, and to each other'. His novels include the bestsellers The Last Family in England, The Radleys and The Humans. His books have been translated into 30 languages. All his novels for adults have been optioned for film. He has also written novels for children, including Shadow Forest, To Be A Cat and the new YA novel Echo Boy. His next book is about his experience of depression, called Reasons To Stay Alive.
He won the TV Book Club 'book of the series', and has been shortlisted for a Specsavers National Book Award. The Humans has been chosen as a 2014 World Book Night title. His children's novels have won the Smarties Gold Medal, the Blue Peter Book of the Year, been shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize and nominated for the Carnegie Medal three times.
His books have received praise from Jeanette Winterson, Joanne Harris, Patrick Ness, Ian Rankin and SJ Watson, among others. The Guardian summed up his writing as 'funny, clever and quite, quite lovely' by The Times and the New York Times called him 'a writer of great talent'.

评分这是一本讲述圣诞老人的故事,哦不,这是讲述圣诞男孩的故事。当然这个男孩最终成为了圣诞老人,这好像一个绕口令般简介,是不是让人一头雾水?别怕,这本书的故事远比我这干瘪的介绍有意思的多。故事的主人公是一个十一岁的男孩——尼古拉斯,生活在芬兰,作为一个伐木工的儿...
评分这是一个关于圣诞老人成长史的童话,但是这个童话并不是那么美好的,儿时的圣诞老人过得并不好。其实我很喜欢这类题材的故事,这是一个关于孩子的童话,却又映射出了大人不如孩子的一面。虽然故事是好故事,但是我很不喜欢作者在一开始就用自大的语气来介绍这本书,也可以说我...
