Welcome to a new strange world.
In a dazzling work of graphic fiction, a surreal journey through a wonderland eerily like real life, The Book of Leviathan chronicles an infant's investigations into life's great mysteries. Endowed with a preternatural interest in metaphysics and philosophy, yet as confused as any innocent by the vagaries of adult behavior, little Levi bears the added burden of living in a world that can literally change at the stroke of a pen.
Aided by a wise pet ("Cat") and a favorite toy ("Bunny"), Levi encounters a frothing ectoplasmic Hegel and a woefully off-the-mark Freud. In less heady adventures, Levi contemplates why his parents disappear at night (and whether he is wholeheartedly pleased when they return each morning); the regrettable liberties taken with the English language; and the relationship between Bennetton and Pablo Neruda.
Peter Blegvad's Book of Leviathan assembles the cream from Levi and Cat's adventures, published in The Independent on Sunday newspaper in the twilight years of the old Millennium. Blegvad's darkly humorous work has been described by Matt Groening as "one of the weirdest things I've ever stared at". Quirky and referential, dark and droll by turn, it follows the faceless baby Levi's journeys into and out of the world. They are escapes, but as some sage once observed, only a jailer would consider the term "escapist" pejorative.
Peter Blegvad is an American writer, illustrator, musician, songwriter, and pamphleteer. His previous publications are the comic strip collection The Book of Leviathan and Headcheese.
你相信一见钟情吗? 想必对方一定拥有某种吸引你的特质,才会让你一见钟情吧?一见钟情是在双方接触的一瞬间产生出的情感,所以很可能是出于对方的颜值,也有可能是因为对方的一句话,或是一个举动。 我对《利维坦之书》的一见钟情大概属于第二种情况,但绝对不属于第一种。毕...

评分彼得·布雷瓦是那种乱洒金点子的作家,一边让人瞠目结舌,一边让人恨得牙痒痒。一本讲小婴儿的漫画怎么让人看得毛骨悚然?他做到了。难说这是不是漫画:比起漫画它文学味儿多了点,比起小说它字少了点。字数少并不意味着它引起的联想就少。一页纸足够让你的脑子疯狂转上好几圈...
