Thanks to your positive response last time, we continue to recommend novels in this issue. In this issue, I would like to recommend to you the satirical fantasy novel "Good Omens" co-authored by the famous British satirist Lord Terry Pratchett and the representative writer of the new generation of fantasy literature, Neil Gaiman.
Lord Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman are both well-known and well-known writers, so we will not dwell on their life achievements or anything like that, but let's get straight to the subject.
Good Omens is a satirical fantasy novel about the end of the world under the biblical mythological system. Featuring the stylishly dressed, Bentley-driven Demon Krully, whose job is to inspire humanity to help Hell gather energy, and Yatz raphael, an angel whose side hustle and fortune tells the story of the two men's interesting rivalry that began when humans left the Garden of Eden, while telling how the various forces worked to make Adam Janru, the son of Satan and god's great enemy, plan to destroy the world.
Listening to the introduction, I believe that everyone has already felt the nonsense of this novel, in fact, it is much more than this introduction.
Krulley and Yatesraphael have worked in the human world for a long time, like two expatriate employees of a hostile large enterprise in the same industry, although in principle they should be hostile to each other, but the relationship between the two people has slowly improved. Occasionally, there are:
"You're going to Ireland next week?" I also want to go over there to drop a miracle, you help me descend. ”
"Then I'm going to have a little accident over here in London, and you'll help me get it."
Such a situation.
After Little Arthur arrives on Earth, Krully thinks of the bleakness of the inevitable defeat of Hell and the boring scene after the victory of Heaven, and he decides to take Yatsraphael along to prevent the end of the world from coming, in order to preserve the human world and their good life in the human world.
So Kruliyotz Raphael joined the joint next to St. James's Park in London, where the ducks were fed pavlov's reflex by the agents of the joint, and when they saw the joint, they would come over to wait for food, and even had a special preference for the black bread of the Russian cultural commissioner and the yeast of MI9 to flavor Horvis wheat bread.
Krulley then threw out the first reason to convince Yatsraphael: "How many first-class musicians do you have over there?" There are only two, Elgar and Liszt, and the rest are all in hell, can you imagine the eternal time with only Elga? ”
This was just the beginning, and then Krully seduced Yatz Raphael with food and entertainment items, and the two went to the Ritz Hotel while chatting, and after three rounds of drinking, both of them were a little drunk, and Krully continued to make a move, "There is no cinema in Heaven, and there are few movies." ”
"You don't want to tempt me, I know you, you old poisonous snake."
"Do you understand what eternity is? eternity? Think of a mountain, a mile high, at the end of the universe, with a little bird every thousand years, flying to that mountain to grind its mouth, and fly back, and when the bird has smoothed out the mountain, you are still watching The Sound of Music, and you will like it, and you will, because you have no choice. Heaven without taste! Not even a sushi restaurant..."
Finally, the last straw that overwhelmed the camel fell, and Yatsraphael couldn't bear it at the thought of sushi. Eventually the two of them formed an alliance to stop the great plan of the end of the world. Although the plan itself has big problems.
"Good Omens" is full of pungent irony and wonderful jokes. The social animal angel and the social animal demon with the heaviest role have brought a lot of strange ideas in a very wonderful angle, which greatly increases the sense of humor in the whole novel, but it is particularly real. While laughing, I will also think about whether the world is really such a sand sculpture. What's even more interesting is that after laughing and thinking about it, the human world is indeed such a sand sculpture.
"Good Omens" is much easier to buy than the recommended bibliography of the previous issue, and last year Amazon and the BBC joined forces to put this classic work on the screen, which was filmed very well and captured the essence of the original work. However, for friends who choose to follow the drama, I still recommend reading the novel after reading it, and the series and the novel have a very different experience.
Then this issue of the tour point meaning ends here, thank you for reading, I am Siwondark, we will see you next time.
