一个关于如何去爱人、感受被人爱着,以及如何面对失去所爱之人的故事。
保罗是一位漫画家,每年夏天,他都会和妻女前往岳父罗兰在魁北克郊外的小木屋,与亲人们一起欢度假期。
罗兰有三个女儿,都已各自成家。他是女儿们眼中的慈父,对孙辈也有着无限的包容,一家人其乐融融,让小屋里充满欢声笑语。
然而,孩子们并不知道罗兰的身体状况不是很好。当癌症进入晚期,药物治疗已经不起作用,只能在疗养院度过最后的时光,他们才知晓老父亲一直在和病魔做斗争,于是各自放下手中的事情,在疗养院陪伴罗兰走完最后一程。
相聚总是短暂,平静的生活暗藏汹涌。即使是亲密无间的家人,也终究会有突如其来的烦恼、矛盾和身不由己的秘密,因此踏上截然不同的人生之路。
加拿大国民漫画家米歇尔·拉巴利亚蒂用轻松幽默又充满伤感的笔调,描绘这个平凡的加拿大家庭中一段充满爱与包容、不舍与离别的时光。

如何舍不得,也是要告别的。无论用多温柔的笔触,多努力去放慢时间,读的过程都让人无比悲伤。这里很多的细节非常打动人,绘本的角落,建筑,街区到食物,似乎都映着蒙特利尔的特色点滴。 不愧是著名漫画家,图书馆里他的书,中英法三个版本都有。

借了才发现是lonely planet出的系列哎。我挺喜欢的,虽然是写给小朋友的。有的游戏我也玩嘻嘻。
主讲如何在散步和自然中找到乐趣,同时又负责任也保障安全。有的概念我也是第一次听说,比如geocaching,不晓得现在还流不流行。
前几天刚认识到一个概念叫Umwelt,我想,进大自然走一走,某种程度也能扩充我们自身的Umwelt吧。

8.5 (39 个评分) 作者: [法] 克里斯多夫·夏布特 译者: 高文婧 湖南美术出版社 2018 - 4
一个男人对抗一头白鲸的孤独狩猎
一个关于复仇、信念与殉道者的伟大故事
《灯塔》作者夏布特畅销作品
美国经典文学《白鲸记》改编图像小说
...................
※编辑推荐※
一艘捕鲸船,一头苍老的白鲸,一位孤独的船长。
一条被白鲸毁去的腿,一柄以信念和雷火淬炼的鱼叉。
一场复仇,三日不眠不休的追捕:最终全船覆灭,白鲸逃亡,仅余以实玛利一人生还,回来讲述这个故事。
◎ “有人死于退潮,有人死于浅滩,有人死于涨潮的最高峰。”——《白鲸记》试图探求的是人和真理、自然与上帝、生与死的关系。
◎ 《灯塔》作者克里斯多夫·夏布特全新力作,经典文学作品改编图像小说的成功典范:夏布特对400余页、30万字的原著小说做了一个干脆的减法:就好比剔去鲸鱼的血肉和脂肪,只留宏大的骨架。
◎ “《白鲸记》最令我动容的,是位于‘坚持’和‘疯狂’之间的那条细细的红线。”夏布特再次探讨人与海洋的关系:简洁、有力的黑白线条、明快的空间分割感、兼具效率和力量感的分镜、回肠荡气的对话,凸显了“人”面对自然的英雄气概。
...................
※内容简介※
本漫画根据美国作家赫尔曼•梅尔维尔的小说《白鲸记》改编。
水手以实马利和土人好友魁魁格,登上一艘捕鲸船,跟随船长亚哈追捕一头曾咬掉亚哈半条腿的白鲸。他们最后终于在太平洋海域遇见了这头白鲸.经过三天的追捕,全船人在和白鲸的战斗中覆灭,只余以实玛利一人,回来跟世人讲述这个故事。

一场狩猎。最后的伟大狩猎。
猎捕的是什么?
莫比·迪克,巨大的抹香鲸:苍老、古远、巨大,独来独往;愤怒时极为可怕,常常受人攻击;白得像一座雪山。
它当然是一个象征。
它象征着什么?
我怀疑就连梅尔维尔自己也不知道。这是最妙的地方。
—— D.H.劳伦斯
我希望呈现这条密闭的捕鲸船上的人类处境。
我希望呈现这头虽为主角,但从来不曾现身的白鲸。
比起电影改编里如磐石般不可转折的亚哈,我更希望呈现的,是一个苍老、衰弱而又强大的亚哈,一个像‘人’的亚哈。
—— 克里斯多夫·夏布特
夏布特抵达了“于无声处听惊雷”的境界。他笔下的一幅画,足抵千言万语。
—— 《纽约书评》
《白鲸记》是一部神奇的书,充斥着戏剧性极强的场景和对话。这本书对读者是有要求的。
—— 鲍勃·迪伦
夏布特对《白鲸记》的改编让我们看到,图像小说这种体裁可以给一个已经为人所熟知的故事带来更多的东西,偶尔,它还能够突破原故事的局限。
—— 美国漫评人 贾森·塞加拉(Jason Segarra)
《白鲸记》是一种悸动、一种神秘、一种预兆、一种热情、一种生之恐怖与战栗的感觉、命运的不可逃避以及邪恶的巨力,这些都紧紧勒住你的喉咙。你觉得已被击倒在地,但又奇妙地被提升高扬。
—— 英国作家 毛姆
2023年12月10日 已读
这是我第一次读白鲸记,以前在其他引用中常常看到它,大抵是宇航员,船员,或是船长们最爱书籍之一。
这么流行,不知是不是因为整个故事散发出的意味——“surrender?绝不。”是美国人最为崇尚的品质之一。我不怀好意地想,如果船长吃点Psilocybin冥想一下,会不会走向不一样的结局。

在线阅读本书
The game under the tree looked like a hundred others Peters and Judy had at home. But they were bored and restless and, looking for something interesting to do, thought they'd give Jumanji a try. Little did they know when they unfolded its ordinary-looking playing board that they were about to be plunged into the most exciting and bizare adventure of their lives.
In his second book for children, Chris Van Allsburg again explores the ever-shifting line between fantasy and reality with this story about a game that comes startingly to life.
His marvelous drawings beautifully convey a mix of the everyday and the extraordinary, as a quiet house is taken over by an exotic jungle.
How to Change Your Mind 豆瓣
作者: Michael Pollan Penguin Group USA 2018 - 5
Approx. 14 hours. Read by author.
New York Times Book Review 10 Best Books of 2018 A New York Times Notable Book The #1 New York Times bestseller. A brilliant and brave investigation into the medical and scientific revolution taking place around psychedelic drugs--and the spellbinding story of his own life-changing psychedelic experiences When Michael Pollan set out to research how LSD and psilocybin (the active ingredient in magic mushrooms) are being used to provide relief to people suffering from difficult-to-treat conditions such as depression, addiction and anxiety, he did not intend to write what is undoubtedly his most personal book. But upon discovering how these remarkable substances are improving the lives not only of the mentally ill but also of healthy people coming to grips with the challenges of everyday life, he decided to explore the landscape of the mind in the first person as well as the third. Thus began a singular adventure into various altered states of consciousness, along with a dive deep into both the latest brain science and the thriving underground community of psychedelic therapists. Pollan sifts the historical record to separate the truth about these mysterious drugs from the myths that have surrounded them since the 1960s, when a handful of psychedelic evangelists inadvertently catalyzed a powerful backlash against what was then a promising field of research. A unique and elegant blend of science, memoir, travel writing, history, and medicine, How to Change Your Mind is a triumph of participatory journalism. By turns dazzling and edifying, it is the gripping account of a journey to an exciting and unexpected new frontier in our understanding of the mind, the self, and our place in the world. The true subject of Pollan's "mental travelogue" is not just psychedelic drugs but also the eternal puzzle of human consciousness and how, in a world that offers us both suffering and joy, we can do our best to be fully present and find meaning in our lives.

哈哈我说我怎么会想看这本书,我可是不爱成功向上书籍的人哎。原来是讲迷幻蘑菇!很有趣,讲psychedelic的应用发展,结合作者自身的🍄体验。荒谬八卦也有,哈佛本科生想参与老师的实验不得,进而举报老师违法实验一举端掉大半研究,因爱生恨这种事上,管你是天之骄子还是普罗大众,人人平等。
阅读的过程解释了一部分我一直以来困惑的问题,那些什么都有的权贵大佬们为啥热衷这种听着就很虚幻的东西。也许正是因为他们世俗的成就很大,仅凭自身心性和受到的教育,常规情况时是断无可能放下庞大的ego乃至surrender的。只有一口迷幻🍄的强大精神力量才能让他们受益匪浅,重新教他们做人。我想🍄对神经的作用,是不是就是能够模拟“无我”。
作者几番发问“仅仅是因为在你脑子里发生的,就不是真的了吗”,我不太认同,那要生活干嘛,进风月宝鉴得了呗。国内好几年前就说要引进,看来是黄了,也是,宣扬抽了就会不听政府话的物质,哪个出版社敢发。

What to Do When I'm Gone Goodreads 豆瓣 谷歌图书
7.7 (6 个评分) 作者: Suzy Hopkins Bloomsbury Publishing USA 2018 - 04
A mother's advice to her daughter--a guide to daily living, both practical and sublime--with full-color illustrations throughout.

One sleepless night while she was in her early twenties, illustrator/writer Hallie Bateman had a painful realization: her mom would die, and after she died she would be gone. The prospect was devastating, and also scary--how would she navigate the world without the person who gave her life? She thought about all the motherly advice she would miss--advice that could help her through the challenges to come, including the ordeal of losing a parent.

The next day, Hallie asked her mother, writer Suzy Hopkins, to record step-by-step instructions for her to follow in the event of her mom's death. The list began: "Pour yourself a stiff glass of whiskey and make some fajitas" and continued from there, walking Hallie through the days, months, and years of life after loss, with motherly guidance and support, addressing issues great and small--from choosing a life partner to baking a quiche. The project became a way for mother and daughter to connect with humor, openness, and gratitude. It led to this book.

Combining Suzy's wit and heartfelt advice with Hallie's quirky and colorful style, What to Do When I'm Gone is the illustrated instruction manual for getting through life without one's mom. It's also a poignant look at loss, love, and taking things one moment at a time. By turns whimsical, funny, touching, and above all pragmatic, it will leave readers laughing and teary-eyed. And it will spur conversations that enrich family members' understanding of one another.

The Color Monster 豆瓣
作者: Anna Llenas Sterling Children's Books
From School Library Journal
PreS-K—Employing a rainbow of tones, a young girl tries to help her multihued friend understand why he is "feeling all mixed up." The unnamed child distinguishes five emotions (happiness, anger, sadness, fear, and calm) and articulates what each one might feel like by equating it with a color. A smiling golden monster on a spread featuring yellow leaves and cutouts represents happiness, describing it as "yellow like the sun." The text explains, "When you're happy you laugh, jump, dance and play. You want to share that feeling with everyone." Conversely, when blue, "you're sad you might want to cry or be alone." Most dramatically, a red monster jumps off the page and declares, "When you're angry, you want to stomp and roar and shout, 'It's not fair!'" Emotions are described in age-appropriate terms, and although calm is a bit tricky ("you breathe slowing and deeply. You feel at peace."), there's no question what the fellow bathed in green is feeling as he rests in a hammock, eyes closed with a smile on his face. A final emotion is left unnamed for readers or listeners to identify, but pink hearts give it away. A number of books, such as Molly Bang's When Sophie Gets Angry—Really, Really Angry (Scholastic, 2004), explore how a child deals with a particular emotion; Color Monster considers the range of feelings a child can experience. As with most pop-ups, durability is a question. VERDICT Less a story than a vehicle to initiate a reassuring conversation about emotions and how to identify them.—Daryl Grabarek, School Library Journal

Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. Tullet's brilliant creation proves that books need not lose out to electronic wizardry; his colorful dots perform every bit as engagingly as any on the screen of an iPad. "Ready?" the voiceover-style narration asks on the first page; it shows a yellow dot on a plain white background. "Press here and turn the page," it instructs. When the page is turned, there's a second yellow dot beside the first one. "Great!" it says. "Now press the yellow dot again." A third yellow dot appears beside the first two. "Perfect," the narrator continues. "Rub the dot on the left... gently." On the next page, voila!—that dot is now red. "Well done!" the book congratulates. The fun continues as the dots proliferate, travel around the page, grow and shrink in response to commands to clap, shake, or tilt the book, etc. The joy is in the tacit agreement between artist and reader that what's happening is magic. Shh! Don't tell. All ages. (Apr.)

Through a Life 豆瓣
作者: Tom Haugomat Nobrow 2018 - 11
Told through a series of poignant vignettes, Through A Life is a sweeping story of dreams, expectations, nature, and loss. Rodney spends his life looking through. Windows give way to screens as he comes of age dreaming of what lies beyond Earth's atmosphere. This powerfully silent graphic novel follows the saga of a boy who grows up to be an astronaut, just like he always wanted, until a fatal space shuttle crash upends his life, and he begins to find solace in the beauty here on earth.

特别特别喜欢这个绘画风格。所有的人生跌宕起伏,感情,不着一字,都在画里了(虽然吧,这故事还真是挺typical老美的)。
作为给成年人看的图像小说,竟然讲是星辰大海般又终于寂静的人生(完全不丧气),好难得啊。 我原来是不太在意图像小说里具体的时间的。最近注意到,感觉读这个故事的真实感有一份就是来自于具体的时间节点,和在节点与节点之间感受到的时间的流逝。寥寥几个字,故事就多了一个维度啊。
另外,大哥小时候在阿拉斯加一直看的虫子,是不是蝽!
