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.
Under the streets of London there's a world most people could never even dream of - a city of monsters and saints, murderers and angels, and pale girls in black velvet. Richard Mayhew is a young businessman who is about to find out more than he bargained for about this other London. A single act of kindness catapults him out of his safe and predictable life and into a world that is at once eerily familiar and yet utterly bizarre. There's a girl named Door, an Angel called Islington, an Earl who holds Court on the carriage of a Tube train, a Beast in a labyrinth, and dangers and delights beyond imagining...And Richard, who only wants to go home, is to find a strange destiny waiting for him below the streets of his native city. This title includes extra material exclusive to Headline Review's edition.

這是我喜歡的尼爾蓋曼式的尼爾蓋曼故事,有關倫敦的尼爾蓋曼童話,尼爾蓋曼寫他所深愛的倫敦,過去的倫敦現在的倫敦未來的倫敦,這本書的主角是倫敦,沉積在曆史中的倫敦。 理查德 梅休 從異鄉來到倫敦的年輕人,工作交友戀愛,就像每一個在大城市生活的年輕人,他就是喜歡收集...
評分讀完《烏有鄉》,真的是會心一笑的感覺。尼爾·蓋曼就像和我相處多年的那位老朋友一樣,寫我所想,述我所思。 小時候總要騎著自行車上學,一天從上學到放學,飛速蹬著腳踏車,一共四趟,時間久瞭,我自然對此心生厭惡。那時候我特彆喜歡在閑暇無事時躺在床上,幻想自己擁有一張...
評分 評分 評分最近很喜歡蓋曼的書,在我心裏纔華橫溢的他可以與史蒂芬金比肩,雖然他的作品我一共也沒看過幾部,但我偏愛他的風格,暗黑童話,觸動人心中最隱秘的一根弦,以此彈奏齣並不華美但無比精緻的樂章~ 無有鄉,另一個不為人知的國度,現實世界的黑白倒影,比真實更加真實的存在,如...
圖書標籤: NeilGaiman 小說 英國 fantasy 英語 英文原版 奇幻 尼爾·蓋曼
對我自己看英語的速度錶示失望。好吧,整個故事的詞匯水平還是平易的。故事脈絡就是常見的陰謀敗露型。還有人吐便當。最後的大boss死亡看得我瘋掉,打開一扇門,門後麵是個黑洞……瞬間從奇幻故事穿越到瞭科幻的感覺。本來覺得烏有鄉的設定是一大亮點,後來反應過來那不就是平行世界嘛。不過形形色色的人物描繪上雖然有扁平化趨嚮,還是搭建起瞭這個神奇的underlLondon世界。最後,主角無法忍受平淡的現實,投入瞭夢幻般的烏有鄉也算一個亮點。
評分love the way Gaiman tell the story~~ the book is weigh more interesting than the film, providing more imagination
評分Plot is okay-ish, I guess that's the same problem with all Gaiman stories, the settings, however, are quite novel and intriguing. There is an Earl at Earl's Count, an Angel Islington, real Black Friars, and oh my how I like the Old Bailey! But this could only happen in London tho, because London has a heart big enough for all things eccentric.
