Valgekraede pildiraamat* Minu selle aasta suurimaks elamuseks on päris kindlasti Neil Gaimani “Sandman”. Kui aus olla, siis polegi tegelikult tegu mitte “päris” raamatu, vaid koomiksiga, aga mingil kummalisel moel raputas see mind põhjalikult. Ja ma ei ole kunagi koomiksite sõber olnud – reeglina on need minu jaoks tüütud. “Sandman” on erand suure algustähega. On isegi raske öelda, mis mind selle teose/koomiksisarja puhul enim köidab – Gaimani geniaalne loojutustamise ja maailma loomise oskus, või kummastavalt köitev ja mällusööbiv pildimaterjal. Iroonilisel kombel on see koomiks – mille peategelaseks on Morpheus ehk Unede(Ulmade?) Jumal –, üks väheseid kirjandusteoseid, mis ikka ja jälle end ka minu unedesse sisse murrab. Gaiman segab oma lugudes talle ainuomast fantaasiat, õudust, iidset ja tänapäevast mütoloogiat ning sünget huumorit moel, mida on võimatu unustada. Ja tundub, et ma pole ainuke, kes sarja lootuselt armunud on: Wikipedia väitel on Sandman ainus koomiks, mis on kunagi võitnud maineka World Fantasy Award´i ning üks kolmest, mis on jõudnud New York Times´i bestsellerite nimekirja (teised kaks on “Watchmen” ja “The Dark Knight Returns”). * Norman Maileri kommentaar koomiksi kohta oli: “comic book for intellectuals”. no reviews | add a review

HTML: NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Neil Gaiman's transcendent series THE SANDMAN is often hailed as the definitive Vertigo title and one of the finest achievements in graphic storytelling. Gaiman created an unforgettable tale of the forces that exist beyond life and death by weaving ancient mythology, folklore and fairy tales with his own distinct narrative vision. A being that has existed since the beginning of the universe, Morpheus rules over the realm of dreams. In THE DOLL'S HOUSE, after a decades-long imprisonment, the Sandman has returned to find that a few dreams and nightmares have escaped to reality. Looking to recapture his lost possessions, Morpheus ventures to the human plane only to learn that a woman named Rose Walker has inadvertently become a dream vortex and threatens to rip apart his world. Now as Morpheus takes on the last escaped nightmare at a serial killers convention, the Lord of Dreams must mercilessly murder Rose or risk the destruction of his entire kingdom.
