3.《野獸男孩》 (2006)
Who doesn't know the fairy tale, Beauty and the Beast? For the sake of modernity, Alex Finn wrote a new version of this tale focusing on the beasts perspective which she entitled Beastly. Transformation this word would push readers to take grips to discover in this timely piece. Kyle Kingsbury- tall, blonde, rich and handsome son of Manhattan News anchor; Lindy Owen- a plain girl with red hair, green eyes and crooked teeth and the daughter of a drug lord; Kendra Hilferty the witch who was disgraced and punished to work as a servant in New York City; the blind tutor and his dog. Behold! Their lives are intertwined with all bewitching, amazing and mysterious unforgettable occurrences to create the reminiscent of the beast. Beastly, though this creature appears, has a heart that grieves and repents and a love that is pure. Unfortunately this heart and love are boxed in the beasts new found world.
美女與野獸的童話故事家喻戶曉,亞歷克斯·芬恩(Alex Finn)以野獸的視角創(chuàng)作了新的現(xiàn)代版本,她將其命名為《野獸男孩》。改造變形這個(gè)詞讓讀者迅速抓住這個(gè)故事的內(nèi)容。文中的人物眾多,凱爾·金斯巴瑞(Kyle Kingsbury)是一個(gè)曼哈頓新聞主播的兒子,一頭金發(fā),個(gè)子很高,富有且英俊;林迪·歐文(Lindy Owen)是一個(gè)紅發(fā)綠眸的平凡女孩,她的牙齒不大整齊,是一個(gè)毒梟的女兒;肯德拉·海芙蒂(Kendra Hilferty )是紐約一個(gè)被罰做仆人的女巫;還有眼盲的家庭教師和他的狗。看,他們的生活是如此的復(fù)雜,充斥著魔法,靈異和不可思議的難忘事件,讓人聯(lián)想起美女與野獸中的野獸。野獸男孩,擁有動(dòng)物的外形,卻有著一顆人類之心,充滿了悲傷、悔恨和純粹的愛,卻不幸被拘在了野獸的軀殼中。
