內容簡介

內容簡介 生命的力量來自於故事與歌唱繼《美國眾神》後，尼爾‧蓋曼再創精采當代神話故事就像蜘蛛，有長長的腳；故事也像蜘蛛網，讓人纏繞在其中。遠古時代，所有動物都想用自己的名字為故事命名。那時，他們依然唱著天空、彩虹和海洋，那時，動物既是人也是動物，而阿南西最喜歡捉弄他們――特別是老虎，因為老虎希望所有故事都以他的名字命名。這些事情胖查理本來不知道。直到老南西在酒吧唱得正開心、下一秒卻從舞台上倒下，撒手人寰（同時拉下了台前正妹的小可愛，引起另一陣騷動），他才得知：他的爸爸是阿南西，故事之神。他說出的一字一句都會成為故事，並傳頌下去。還有另一件事是：胖查理有個弟弟叫蜘蛛，擁有所有迷人的個性特質（就像老爸），和所有會令人難堪的樂天與任意妄為（這完全像老爸！）跟胖查理完全不一樣。胖查理是兩人之中比較無趣、沒有存在感的那個。而他無聊但安全的人生，並沒有因為老爸過世就變得安穩：憑空出現的弟弟讓他的工作、未婚妻都岌岌可危，而他唯一的救星卻是四個瘋癲老太婆……然而，切斷父子手足的牽絆，就真能順遂一生嗎？本中文書介出自《蜘蛛男孩》木馬文化事業有限公司出版From #1 New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman, a tale playful, profound, and rife with mayhem and mischief―one of ten classic Gaiman works repackaged with elegant original watercolor art by acclaimed artist Henry Sene YeeWhen Fat Charlie’s dad named something, it stuck.
