Mr Bliss | |
The first ever trade edition of Tolkien’s illustrated tale about the eccentric Mr Bliss, a man notable for his immensely tall hats and for the girabbit in his garden, whose whimsical decision to buy a motor car quickly becomes a catalogue of disasters.
Professor J.R.R. Tolkien invented and illustrated the book of Mr Bliss’s adventures for his own children when they were very young. The book was handwritten with lots of detailed and uproarious colour pictures.
This is a complete and highly imaginative tale of eccentricity. Mr Bliss, a man notable for his immensely tall hats and for the girabbit in his garden, takes the whimsical decision to buy a motor car. But his first drive to visit friends quickly becomes a catalogue of disasters. Some of these could be blamed on Mr Bliss’s style of driving, but even he could not anticipate being hijacked by three bears. As for what happened next – the readers, whether young or old, will want to discover for themselves.
Redesigned using new archival scans of Tolkien’s original drawings, MR BLISS is presented for the first time in a conventional trade format, sure to delight Tolkien fans of all ages.
媒体推荐‘Owes a little to Beatrix Potter in its ironical humour and to Edward Lear in the style of its drawings, though Tolkien’s approach is less grotesque and more delicate than Lear’s.’ Humphrey Carpenter
‘A celebration, in the spirit of The Wind in the Willows, of a vanished, vulgar England where everybody did – and spoke – exactly as he pleased, and life was consequently a series of amiable abrupt collisions, feebly refereed by the police in the shape of Sergeant Boffin. Although the book ought to feel dated, … dating has done little harm to Tom Kitten or Mr Badger, and there seems no reason why it should here.’ Tom. Shippey, Times Literary Supplement

网友对Mr Bliss的评论
快递特别快就到了，似乎买到的还是最后一本二手。看过LOTR和Simi之后觉得这绘本的画风简直贱萌到凶残，故事还没看完已经逗到不行。非常喜欢这一版的编纂，前边为了方便阅读做成小说形式，后边原稿悉数保留，只为展示托老可爱的手书。总之非常棒。
快递非常快，超级快，基本就半天就到了。
印刷很好，里面是全彩的，封面颜色很温馨，非常好~
全部铜版纸印刷，正反两面皆可阅读，分别是横竖排版，横版对比了托老的手写稿，实在很赞。
颜色很可爱 插图太赞 故事很温暖 物超所值
If you've read anything else Tolkien wrote for his children (Roverandom) or for children in general (Farmer Giles of Ham), you'll know what to expect, and Mr. Bliss delivers perfectly. Mr. Bliss, a regular man with a tall green hat, decides one day to buy a motorcar, and does not expect how downhill his day will go from there. Excellent as a bedtime story, mid-day story, or anytime story, really.
5 stars for the story; it did take quite a fair while to get delivered but technically it was within the bounds of what I paid for, so (as they say) beggars can't be choosers, I suppose. The book itself is in beautiful condition and we are happy to own it.
Item is as shown and arrived in good working order. Took a while to arrive but was shipped from the UK so that is to be expected. Still arrived before I needed it. It is going to be a gift for my friend's kid's birthday. Hopefully she will like it. Book is very well made and bound with a flawless dust cover. Price was fair, condition was new, and shipping was reasonable. I would highly recommend this product.
love the book and great service
Charming illustrations and quirky humor make this a must-have if you are a Tolkien fan. The version I recieved contains two versions of the story, one with illustrations and type presented vertically, and another with the same illustrations and Tolkien's beautiful script presented horizontally.
This is a sweet little book. Has two versions in it. One is the edited version which enlarges the drawings and the other is exactly as Tolkien had written it in his notebook. I like having both.
