Tim Burton Libri

In questo libro Tim Burton, il regista di Ed Wood , Batman , Edward Mani di forbice , The Nightmare Before Christmas e Mars Attacks! , scrive ballate e poesie e le illustra con tratto lieve. Con la stregata malinconia che pervade i suoi film, Burton ricrea la magia degli antichi libri illustrati per ragazzi portandola in uno stralunato mondo di robot, mostri e dolenti assurdità, donando a questi figli del nostro tempo una irrevocabile grazia. Del resto tutta l'opera di Tim Burton è segnata da una cifra inequivocabile di orrore, comicità e insieme malinconia, che apparenta le sue figure di esseri sconfitti, o almeno colpiti da un'assoluta solitudine, alle invenzioni della grande arte e letteratura di tutti i tempi. I bambini protagonisti di questo libro sono poco più che Cose Animate, fragilissimi ma irriducibili nella loro voglia di vita, sempre sul punto di essere distrutti da qualche crudeltà di Adulto.

Detective Gage Hudson believes the bodies are linked to Craig. But the biggest shocks are yet to come. A psychopath has resumed his work, each death a prelude to his most cherished target. The only way to stop him is to uncover a family's dark past--and a twisted love someone will kill for, again and again."--Page 4 of cover
