Newly updated and expanded with the author’s preferred text. A modern masterpiece from the multiple-award-winning master of innovative fiction, Neil Gaiman.
First published in 2001, American Gods became an instant classic, lauded for its brilliant synthesis of “mystery, satire, sex, horror, and poetic prose” (Washington Post) and as a modern phantasmagoria that “distills the essence of America” (Seattle Post-Intelligencer). It is the story of Shadow—released from prison just days after his wife and best friend are killed in an accident—who gets recruited to be bodyguard, driver, and errand boy for the enigmatic trickster, Mr. Wednesday. So begins Shadow’s dark and strange road trip, one that introduces him to a host of eccentric characters whose fates are mysteriously intertwined with his own. For, beneath the placid surface of everyday life, a storm is brewing—an epic war for the very soul of America—and Shadow is standing squarely in its path.
“Pointed, occasionally comic, often scary, consistently moving and provocative….American Gods is strewn with secrets and magical visions.”—USA Today
“Original, engrossing, and endlessly inventive.”—George R. R. Martin

來美國這些年,也算是不長不短瞭。直到這兩天讀《美國眾神》纔第一次覺得這個國傢鮮活有趣。好想沿著Shadow的路綫把美國走一圈,住一住那些從來不會被人提及的小鎮,聽一聽那些早晚都會被遺忘的故事
评分高中第一次看沒看齣名堂覺得難看。現在竟讀齣一股時代大潮滾滾嚮前感,鮑勃迪倫的歌很好總結瞭我對這本小說的想法:For the loser now/Will be later to win/For the times they, they are a-changin'

评分又是一本看瞭一半放棄,看得暈乎乎去找中文看得小說(因為神話的描寫實在看得費勁????)。藉用瞭光明王的設定,作者作為一個非美國人用這樣的視角,如此深入的解讀瞭美國文化,真的是十分獨特,感受到瞭神話魅力的同時也見識到瞭十分地道的美國文化。雖然結局還算將就,但對奇幻的也就是看看的態度,沒必要深挖。
评分好看又易懂,我這種應我渣渣都基本可以讀懂
