media coverage

Since The Last Unicorn was published, it has been translated into more than 40 languages and distributed tens of millions of copies. It has long been as famous as Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, and it brings out the best in the history of western fantasy novels. Even in the film and television industry, the last unicorn did not show weakness. When the film The Lord of the Rings, adapted from The Lord of the Rings, became popular all over the world, the world-famous intercontinental film company immediately invested nearly 1 100 million dollars to put the last unicorn on the screen. Their slogan was: Unicorn and the Lord of the Rings fight it out. If the charm of Harry Potter is mysterious and peculiar, then the vitality of The Lord of the Rings lies in its complexity and massiness, and the loveliness of The Last Unicorn lies in its adventure and beauty. The author Peter S. Bigger showed us a dangerous and romantic magic story, a fairy tale about youth and growth. As The New York Times commented: "Living colors are fragrant, swaying, imaginative and dazzling." Like The Lord of the Rings, The Last Unicorn is full of mystery and suspense from beginning to end. Those unicorns that have disappeared, the legendary dangerous castles in the distance, and the spell of the end of the female magic city ... A series of suspense, like The Lord of the Rings's Lord of the Rings, have been hanging on readers' heartstrings. It drives us to finish reading the book in one breath, and it makes us follow the fate of unicorns closely and embark on a dangerous journey. However, suspense is not the whole reason for reading pleasure. In fact, if a book attracts people only by suspense, reading may become a heavy burden. Reading novels is like a long journey, and the fun of traveling is certainly not only in the final destination. If you want to make a trip full of fun, you must have at least two conditions: one is the dazzling scenery along the way, and the other is an interesting and fun companion. These two conditions are exactly what this novel has. In fact, this book itself is an adventure journey, a journey of exploration. Being in distress again and again, and being rescued again and again, the reader seems to have followed the unicorn on a journey of "mountains and heavy waters, no road to doubt, a bright future and another village". In addition, along the way, the sad magician Shi Mandric and the desperate woman Miss Molly accompanied the unicorn and readers. That magician is an amateur. Although powerful, he is not good at learning. The more he reached the critical juncture, the more he stumbled, causing many jokes and troubles along the way. That Miss Molly is a half-aged Xu Niang, but she is still full of girls' dreams and is naturally warm-hearted. In this way, two stooges meet by chance, and there will be some right and wrong without right and wrong, turning an adventure into romance. The pleasure of reading is that everything told in this book makes people feel familiar and novel. Compared with traveling, you won't travel to a place where you have been a hundred times, because it will only bring you fatigue and no fun; You dare not go to a completely strange place easily, because maybe you will lose yourself there and never come back; Only those familiar and unfamiliar places can make you relive your old dreams and give you new feelings. This is the most attractive trip. The Last Unicorn presents a world where everything seems familiar to you: unicorns, witches, wizards, castles, magic, spells, folk songs, lurking monsters, talking beasts, evil kings, handsome and kind princes, beautiful and affectionate princesses; The prince saved the princess in trouble, and the princess and the prince lived a happy life in the castle from then on ... These things are actually very common in Homer's epic, Grimm's fairy tales and Andersen's fairy tales, and must have appeared more than once in your childhood dreams. However, the author doesn't want us to relive the old dreams. He doesn't want to make up a naive fairy tale in the traditional sense to call back the lost Middle Ages. In fact, the author harmonizes the original elements of these classic fairy tales and carefully fabricates a brand-new story, a children's story, an adult story and a fairy tale about youth and growth. The writer is a screenwriter and often travels with the troupe in various States of the United States. Most playwrights are good at teasing. Born playful, humorous, laughing and cursing, and taking part in accidental amusement are all articles; Stereotypes and cliches are used by me to turn decay into magic and give new meaning to old stories. In this book, the author makes fun of the great fairy tales that women and children know; I also made a good joke about everyone's childhood. At first glance, the author seems to be telling a story with dignity, telling the adventures of unicorns with ups and downs, making readers feel as if they were there and worried about the fate of unicorns. However, just as you follow his narrative, the author will suddenly jump out of his own story and quietly play a joke on the characters in the story (actually with the readers). For example, he made a butterfly quote classics, full of poems, and even confused Shakespeare's poems with American Indian folk songs; A desperate man is not robbing the rich to help the poor and doing justice for heaven, but indulging in his heroic epic all day, dreaming that one day these lame songs will be collected by the famous folk artist childe, and he himself will go down in history like the ancient hero Robin Hood. A medieval prince was reading a magazine to his princess who was about to marry him on a stream meadow full of medieval pastoral customs. I guess it may be a Paris fashion magazine. The handsome prince wears armor, but he is made of scrap metal, tinplate and cans. Maybe the author thinks of Coca-Cola ... and so on, which gives the whole work a strong irony. Authors from playwrights are naughty enough. He wove a medieval dream for you. Just when you missed Random Harvest, he gently woke you up from your dream from time to time and told you that the girl was just a unicorn that didn't exist. He lets you wander between dreams and waking up, between childhood memories and growing troubles. Just like that morning more than two thousand years ago, a China man named Zhuang Zhou was sleepy and couldn't tell whether he was Zhuang Zhou or a butterfly. He was confused and meaningful, looking for it and trying to say it. This is the place where the last unicorn is one foot taller than The Lord of the Rings, which belongs to magic literature. Perhaps this is why this book fascinates young people all over the world.
