The world in the story is composed of trash. It’s a lost world. Compared to the world where we shelter in, isn’t it also saturated with different kinds of trash? The faster the pace of society goes, the more is the trash being produced. There is the excess and waste of everything everywhere: just imagine how we buy a lot of crappy things home before we think thoroughly whether we need them. Similarly, when we simply go for a walk in the city, we will end up bringing heaps of useless promotional materials home. Not to mention the bulk volume of junk emails containing the news and information, on which we never take even just a glimpse before we send them to trash.
With the publication of this book, which we named TRASH TALK, we hope to convey some messages via the trash world inside it. It is also a fairy tale created for those who should be adults but still remain as children. Now you guys have already bought a lot of trash home every single day, why don’t you bring this lovely trash book home as well? It may contain some little treasures, which you never expect!
The story of Trash Talk is about a world full of trash. The creatures living there rely their livings on trash falling off from the sky. They can only maintain their lives by feeding on anything they can find from among the trash around them. All those they need for living can only be found from the same source as well.
The main characters in the story are Eyeboy and Mouthboy. They used to be very good brothers, innocent to the world and kind to each other. They led a humble life: looking for food among trash and bringing it home for their stepmother. Yes, like all those stepmothers in fairytales, she never treated them well. They were bullied as well when they were searching for food. Though they developed a friendship with Iggy, it turned out to be a false one and they were betrayed. From then on, they changed much and became selfish. They competed against each other. They even went to war for the competition of an apple core! Eventually, everything ends up in vain. No one won, both of them lost. Are they very stupid and pointless, fighting for just an apple core? But, will you consider whether this kind of struggle happens around us everyday? When you have read through this trash story, with its trash drawings and trash words, will the book leave you some trash messages at the end?
The second part of this book is about the memory of its creative process. We initiated the creation of Trash Talk in 2002. This part collects some of the early sketches of the story throughout these 4 years. To our surprise, the outlook of Eyeboy and Mouthboy has undergone quite a significant evolution!
In addition, we also made some plush dolls. When some of our friends go for holidays abroad, we will ask them to bring these dolls together, and they will substitute our parts in the journeys. Apart from the plushies, we also made clay dolls, which readily virtualize the characters of the story in a three dimensional space, with the help of scenery, they appear as if they are really exist when we took them photos. We also tried to bring them back to the places they belong to: the streets! In that sense, we also created some street arts with them to make them feel like getting home. Whenever we meet them on streets, we will waive hands and say hello to greet them. This part also contains the comic series as originally published on the Internet.
The last part of Trash Talk brings 17 artists, who are our friends, to participate this creation together. Just like the trashcan, with all sorts of trash inside it. (We are not saying their works are trash, for sure!) Expressing the view of Trash Talk from the perspectives of these friends with various backgrounds (including designer, illustrator, street artist and doll maker etc), we hope their input will make our trash book not that trash in content!
Free gifts, which go together with the book, include a Skull Boy plushie and a piece of character sticker.

坦白讲,我是一个对阅读体验要求非常高的人,如果一本书不能在智识上挑战我,或者在情感上触动我,我通常很快就会放弃。但这本作品,成功地在两者之间找到了一个完美的平衡点。它在哲学层面的探讨是深刻且富有洞察力的,尤其是在论及时间和记忆的本质时,它提出了许多令人深思的观点,迫使我重新审视自己对“存在”的理解。但更难得的是,所有的这些宏大主题,都没有被高高挂起的学术腔调所束缚。作者总能用一个极其生活化、甚至略带荒诞的细节,将那些复杂的概念具象化。比如书中关于一次雨天的描写,它不仅仅是天气描写,更像是对一种集体无意识状态的精准捕捉。这种将高深思考与日常细节无缝对接的能力,是区分优秀作品和伟大作品的关键。
评分这本书最让我感到震撼的,是它对“边缘群体”和“被社会遗忘者”的关注。它没有采取那种居高临下的怜悯视角,而是用一种近乎野蛮的真实感,将这些人物的生存状态和内心世界赤裸裸地呈现在我们面前。我可以想象,要写出这样鲜活、充满生命力的底层人物形象,作者一定进行了极其深入的田野调查,或者说,他/她拥有极其敏锐的洞察力。书中的对白尤其精彩,它们粗粝、真实,充满了只有在特定环境中才会使用的特有语汇和节奏感,瞬间就将你拉入那个特定的氛围之中。我尤其欣赏作者在描绘绝望和希望的拉扯时所表现出的那种克制,他/她从不把话说满,总是留给读者一个呼吸的余地,让希望的火苗在最不可能的地方悄悄燃起。读完之后,你可能会对你身边那些平时不曾注意的人产生一种全新的敬畏感。
评分这本书简直是精神食粮,尤其是对于那些在生活中感到迷茫,或者只是想从日常琐事中抽离出来,沉浸在一个完全不同世界的人来说。作者的叙事功力炉火纯青,每一个场景的描绘都像是用最细腻的画笔勾勒出来的一般,让你能真切地感受到人物的呼吸和周围环境的气息。我尤其喜欢它处理人性的那种毫不留情却又充满理解的方式。它不是那种典型的“好人”与“坏人”的简单对立,而是深入挖掘了每个角色内心深处的矛盾和挣扎,让你在阅读过程中不断地对自己产生疑问:如果是我,我会怎么做?那种细致入微的心理剖析,常常让我读完一章后需要停下来,好好消化一下那种复杂的情感冲击。这本书的节奏掌控得也恰到好处,时而如山洪暴发般紧凑刺激,让人屏住呼吸,时而又像午后慵懒的阳光,缓慢地铺展开来,给予读者喘息和思考的空间。它成功地创造了一个令人信服的、有着自己独特逻辑和美学的世界观,这种沉浸感是很多当代小说难以企及的。
评分我必须得说,这本书在语言的运用上达到了一个令人咋舌的高度。它完全颠覆了我对现代文学叙事可以达到的复杂程度的固有认知。作者似乎对词汇的掌握已经达到了出神入化的地步,他/她能够将一些看似毫不相干的意象巧妙地编织在一起,形成一种既陌生又无比贴切的表达效果。每一次阅读都像是在解开一个精妙的文字谜题,你必须全神贯注,才能捕捉到那些隐藏在表面文字之下的深层含义和多重隐喻。有些段落,我甚至需要反复朗读才能完全领会其中韵律和节奏的微妙变化。这本书的结构本身也是一个奇迹,它拒绝了线性的叙事方式,而是像一个复杂的、多维度的迷宫,引导读者在不同的时间线和视角之间穿梭。初读时可能会感到一丝眩晕,但当你逐渐适应了作者搭建的这个独特框架后,你会发现所有的碎片最终都汇集成了一幅宏大而震撼的图景。这绝对不是一本可以“快速浏览”的书,它需要投入时间,需要尊重。
评分我很少会因为一本书而改变我的生活轨迹,但这本书做到了。它像一面打磨得异常清晰的镜子,映照出我们这个时代最深层的焦虑和躁动。它探讨了现代社会中个体如何与巨大的、不可抗拒的系统力量抗衡,以及在这种抗衡中,我们究竟是会彻底湮灭,还是能找到一种独特的、带有个人印记的生存之道。作者构建了一个既熟悉又疏离的背景设定,让你在阅读的过程中,会不断地将书中的情境与我们自己所处的现实环境进行对照和投射。这种强烈的代入感,不是通过简单的情节代入,而是通过作者对时代精神的精准捕捉来实现的。它不是一本提供简单答案的书,相反,它抛出了更多、更尖锐的问题,让你在合上封面之后,依然能听到那些未完待续的回响。这本书,值得被反复阅读,每次都会有新的发现。
