Adrian Tomine was born in 1974 in Sacramento, California. He began self-publishing his comic book series Optic Nerve. His comics have been anthologized in publications such as McSweeney's, Best American Comics, and Best American Nonrequired Reading, and his graphic novel Shortcomings was a New York Times Notable Book of 2007. Since 1999, Tomine has been a regular contributor to The New Yorker. He lives in Brooklyn with his wife and daughter.
Killing and Dying is a stunning showcase of the possibilities of the graphic novel medium and a wry exploration of loss, creative ambition, identity, and family dynamics. With this work, Adrian Tomine (Shortcomings, Scenes from an Impending Marriage) reaffirms his place not only as one of the most significant creators of contemporary comics but as one of the great voices of modern American literature. His gift for capturing emotion and intellect resonates here: the weight of love and its absence, the pride and disappointment of family, the anxiety and hopefulness of being alive in the twenty-first century.
"Amber Sweet" shows the disastrous impact of mistaken identity in a hyper-connected world; "A Brief History of the Art Form Known as Hortisculpture" details the invention and destruction of a vital new art form in short comic strips; "Translated, from the Japanese" is a lush, full-color display of storytelling through still images; the title story, "Killing and Dying", centers on parenthood, mortality, and stand-up comedy. In six interconnected, darkly funny stories, Tomine forms a quietly moving portrait of contemporary life.
Tomine is a master of the small gesture, equally deft at signaling emotion via a subtle change of expression or writ large across landscapes illustrated in full color. Killing and Dying is a fraught, realist masterpiece.
后浪的书品质一向很高。这次Adrian Tomine的画风和故事很适合做睡前读物。主角们的生活暗流涌动,最后百川东到海,风烟俱净。他的故事会让人想起年少时的梦,也会让人轻轻放下。两晚看完,记录一下杂乱的思绪。 六个短篇故事,每个人都有每个人的丧。大家丧的理由千奇百怪,原...
評分Intensely personal, yet relatable to every level. All the stories in this book just feel SO REAL. Well done.
評分很喜欢很契合,一口气读完整本才放下来。对人生灰色地带的剖析细腻又游刃有余,没有说教、灌输、鸡汤,没有先抑后扬。探讨了不同境遇下,人与自身如何相处,与他人如何相处,与世界如何相处。看完后并不轻松,也不沉重,却是会在心里留下浓重情绪的绘本,确实灰色才是人生的主...

最愛第四個故事“Translated, from the Japanese”,好獨特的講述方式,看不見主角們的一根頭發絲,卻做到瞭讓你覺得你就是當事人。每個故事都有感動,瞭不起。

评分@ Giesel.
评分妥妥的一枚大師,故事分鏡節奏用色都能用精準兩字形容,要小心的是滿滿的(第一次打,打成瞭慢慢的,發現也貼閤,那股能量是慢慢釋放齣來的)負能量,這幾個小故事小得不得瞭,但很喪很喪。
