David Mazzucchelli has been making comics his whole life. Known chiefly for his collaborations - with Frank Miller on seminal Batman and Daredevil stories, and with Paul Karasik on an adaptation of Paul Auster's novel, City of Glass - he began publishing his own stories in 1991 in his anthology magazine, Rubber Blanket. Since then his short comics have been published in books and magazines around the world. Asterios Polyp is his first graphic novel, and has won the Los Angeles Times Book Prize and been listed as a New York Times notable book.
The triumphant return of one of comics’ greatest talents, with an engrossing story of one man’s search for love, meaning, sanity, and perfect architectural proportions. An epic story long awaited, and well worth the wait.
Meet Asterios Polyp: middle-aged, meagerly successful architect and teacher, aesthete and womanizer, whose life is wholly upended when his New York City apartment goes up in flames. In a tenacious daze, he leaves the city and relocates to a small town in the American heartland. But what is this “escape” really about?
As the story unfolds, moving between the present and the past, we begin to understand this confounding yet fascinating character, and how he’s gotten to where he is. And isn’t. And we meet Hana: a sweet, smart, first-generation Japanese American artist with whom he had made a blissful life. But now she’s gone. Did Asterios do something to drive her away? What has happened to her? Is she even alive? All the questions will be answered, eventually.
In the meantime, we are enthralled by Mazzucchelli’s extraordinarily imagined world of brilliantly conceived eccentrics, sharply observed social mores, and deftly depicted asides on everything from design theory to the nature of human perception.
Asterios Polyp is David Mazzucchelli’s masterpiece: a great American graphic novel.

评分1 大家肯定听过马伯庸的陨石遁吧,说的是马伯庸写的《我在江湖》,更新八章后太监多时,催更之下,忽有一日更新了第九章“大结局”: 众人忽听得头上霹雳作响,纷纷抬头看去,只见晴空之上,赫然一个火球凛然而下。有胆小的大叫一声哎哟妈哟,抱头就跑,胆大的也只是呆立原地盯...
评分好看,强烈安利。最近才发现有一种表达是图像的,视觉语言的。这种更具象,有时击中我心中所想更快。很喜欢,准备以后多多摄入。 看这本时,终于领悟:世界与人都是复杂的,复杂意味着立体,多面。而很多事的探讨不是绝对与极端的问题,而是相对与程度的问题。在两个极端点黑与...
评分我很少看绘本类的书籍,这一本也是偶然接触到的,但是我很喜欢。 当我翻开这本书第一页的时候,他的画风就有一种折射内心的感觉,每一段故事都代表着一种情感,一种内涵,正是因为大卫·马祖凯利想表达的内涵太多了,所以每个人在其中都很容易产生共鸣,书是无情物,画里画外却...
