The Invention of Hugo Cabret BSY203

US$39.95

Orphan, clock keeper, and thief, Hugo lives in the walls of a busy Paris train station, where his survival depends on secrets and anonymity. But when his world suddenly interlocks with an eccentric, bookish girl and a bitter old man who runs a toy booth in the station, Hugo's undercover life, and his most precious secret, are put in jeopardy. A cryptic drawing, a treasured notebook, a stolen key, a mechanical man, and a hidden message from Hugo's dead father form the backbone of this intricate, tender, and spellbinding mystery.

雨果的父亲生前是个钟表匠,曾在工作的博物馆里发现一个非常精致但坏了的机器人,后来父亲在修理机器人时离奇地丧生于博物馆的大火中,雨果想修好这个可以写字的机器人,以便得知父亲遗留给自己的信息。为了修理机器人,雨果去玩具店老人那里偷玩具零件,却被老人逮个正着,老人百般阻挠雨果修理机器人。雨果费尽周折,终于修好了机器人。但是,机器人并没有像他想象的那样,写出父亲留给自己的只言片语。失望之时,他却突然发现,机器人展示给他更为离奇和复杂的信息。机器人最终写了什么?为何有这样多的机缘巧合?而由此引出的更复杂、更惊人的秘密,让雨果的命运也随之发生了翻天覆地的变化。作品将魔术、电影等人类的梦想贯穿其中,主人公雨果用自己的执著和创造,改变了自己,也改变了周围人的命运。生命因梦想而绚丽,因执著而辉煌。
