Ce roman, plein de poésie comme pour tous les romans de cet auteur, est également palpitant. De par, en premier lieu, les aventures que vit Bod, le héros, mais également à travers les rencontres qu'il fait, les endroits qu'ils visitent, on est fasciné du monde dans lequel vit Bod et on est avide d'en découvrir toujours plus. Une vrai réussite, récompensée à travers le monde à juste titre. ( ![]() This book was used for my final BA essay (on the 2010 Carnegie award winner), as part of the Open University course EA300 'Children's Literature'. I enjoyed the fantastic story, quite gothic too, as I followed the life learning experience of Nobody Owens, the child hero. The characters are very well drawn, the story is very engaging and the villain is quite predatory, if not so evil (he lives with his grandmother). I hope people enjpoy this book as much as I did, because it has a very optimistic ending and it is just the beginning! Very good read, it should be in children's reading lists.
Gaiman writes with charm and humor, and again he has a real winner. Like a bite of dark Halloween chocolate, this novel proves rich, bittersweet and very satisfying. This is fine work, from beginning to end, and the best bedtime story read-aloud material I've encountered in a long time. Can't wait until my daughter's old enough to read this to. When the chilling moments do come, they are as genuinely frightening as only Gaiman can make them, and redeem any shortcomings. While “The Graveyard Book” will entertain people of all ages, it’s especially a tale for children. Gaiman’s remarkable cemetery is a place that children more than anyone would want to visit. They would certainly want to look for Silas in his chapel, maybe climb down (if they were as brave as Bod) to the oldest burial chamber, or (if they were as reckless) search for the ghoul gate. Children will appreciate Bod’s occasional mistakes and bad manners, and relish his good acts and eventual great ones. The story’s language and humor are sophisticated, but Gaiman respects his readers and trusts them to understand. Est contenu dansFait l'objet d'une adaptation dansA été inspiré par
