Multiple award winning, #1 New York Times bestselling author Neil Gaiman returns to dazzle, captivate, haunt, and entertain with this third collection of short fiction following Smoke and Mirrors and Fragile Things—which includes a never-before published American Gods story, “Black Dog,” written exclusively for this volume.
In this new anthology, Neil Gaiman pierces the veil of reality to reveal the enigmatic, shadowy world that lies beneath. Trigger Warning includes previously published pieces of short fiction—stories, verse, and a very special Doctor Who story that was written for the fiftieth anniversary of the beloved series in 2013—as well “Black Dog,” a new tale that revisits the world of American Gods, exclusive to this collection.
Trigger Warning explores the masks we all wear and the people we are beneath them to reveal our vulnerabilities and our truest selves. Here is a rich cornucopia of horror and ghosts stories, science fiction and fairy tales, fabulism and poetry that explore the realm of experience and emotion. In Adventure Story—a thematic companion to The Ocean at the End of the Lane—Gaiman ponders death and the way people take their stories with them when they die. His social media experience A Calendar of Tales are short takes inspired by replies to fan tweets about the months of the year—stories of pirates and the March winds, an igloo made of books, and a Mother’s Day card that portends disturbances in the universe. Gaiman offers his own ingenious spin on Sherlock Holmes in his award-nominated mystery tale The Case of Death and Honey. And Click-Clack the Rattlebag explains the creaks and clatter we hear when we’re all alone in the darkness.
A sophisticated writer whose creative genius is unparalleled, Gaiman entrances with his literary alchemy, transporting us deep into the realm of imagination, where the fantastical becomes real and the everyday incandescent. Full of wonder and terror, surprises and amusements, Trigger Warning is a treasury of delights that engage the mind, stir the heart, and shake the soul from one of the most unique and popular literary artists of our day.
I am not scared of bad people, of wicked evildoers, of monsters and creatures of the night. The people who scare me are the ones who are certain of their own rightness. The ones who know how to behave, and what their neighbours need to do to be on the side of the good. (查看原文)

I’m never a big fan of fiction, and haven’t changed after reading this short story. But I’d say reading fiction is indeed a way for me to expand the dimension of my life and see through others’ eyes.(展开)
Trigger Warning读起来比Smoke and Mirror感觉好很多。更贴近，更坦白。应该是媒介的关系。在Kindle上读Smoke and Mirror时，有种胆战心惊的不确定感。嗯。也许两本书里的故事的确有不同？Smoke and Mirror更晦涩狰狞？ 虽然盖曼在前言中说，这本书里有吓人的怪兽和其它东西，...

Neil Gaiman真是多才多艺，信手拈来都是故事。最后还有一个续写美国众神的短篇，不容错过

感觉进入了Neil Gaiman 的捏泥人工作间，五花八门的，一个个都是他没捏完，或者捏走形的小样。

看的时候很多故事给人和19年间谋杀小叙有种类似的感觉，仿佛突然看到了阴影里的东西。特别是那封Love Letter居然是一个Creepy Stalker写的，最后那句“你现在回头能看到我”吓出一身冷汗。最后一个故事也很精彩，有点灵异第六感的感觉，最后才知道看到的竟然是鬼魂。还有大牌IP联动：白雪公主+睡美人双女主爽文，Holmes同人，少年派的故事。别的故事也精彩：去遥远的洞穴里寻宝的人，两个幻想... 看的时候很多故事给人和19年间谋杀小叙有种类似的感觉，仿佛突然看到了阴影里的东西。特别是那封Love Letter居然是一个Creepy Stalker写的，最后那句“你现在回头能看到我”吓出一身冷汗。最后一个故事也很精彩，有点灵异第六感的感觉，最后才知道看到的竟然是鬼魂。还有大牌IP联动：白雪公主+睡美人双女主爽文，Holmes同人，少年派的故事。别的故事也精彩：去遥远的洞穴里寻宝的人，两个幻想中的人成了彼此的现实，都很精彩～驾驭短篇的人都是文字的神 (展开)
