RUMBLE STRIP

Book ID/图书代码： 09580014B70978

English Summary/英文概要： Powerful graphic memoir by a leading British comics artist that investigates our increasingly skewed relationship with cars. Rumble Strip is about an invisible kind of murder where the punishment rarely fits the crime. Combining autobiography, statistics, case histories, advertising and reportage, Woodrow Phoenix draws a compelling picture of the warped psychology behind our need for speed. ""Too often road safety is treated as a transportation issue, not a public health issue."" - World Health Organization

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 英国顶尖的漫画家伍德罗·菲尼克斯调查了我们与汽车之间日益扭曲的关系，并用漫画的形式表现出来。在《闹市区》中，作者表达了他认为越来越快的车速就像一个隐形的杀手一般潜伏在人们周围。结合自传、数据、病例、广告和报告，伍德罗描绘出了在对速度的追求后，人类扭曲的心理。“道路安全总被认为是运输问题，却没人考虑这其实是公共健康问题。”——世界卫生组织（XAT）

Awards/获奖情况：这本漫画小说思路清晰，充满智慧，又表现出了作者愤怒的情绪，讲述了道路的故事。《闹市区》应该在发驾驶证的时候给每个新手驾驶员人手一本。——乔恩·麦格雷戈

这本漫画小说描写的并不是单一的个体，而是描绘了整个人类的现象。《闹市区》向人们发问：汽车到底是如何影响你的生活的，这本书会让你在读完后回味良久，无论你是站在司机还是行人，亦或两者都是的立场上。——保罗·格拉维特

杰出的原创作品。每个人都应该读一读这本书。——《时代报》

Brilliant. Angry, articulate, bewildered, and beautifully drawn; a visceral blast of truth-telling against the cult of the road. They should be giving it away with new driving licences. -- JON MCGREGOR

For a graphic work that doesn’t show a single human being, this is an extraordinarily human book. Its ideas and questions about how the car impacts on your life will echo in your mind long after you’ve finished reading it, whether you’re a driver, or a pedestrian, or both. -- PAUL GRAVETT

One utterly original work of genius. It should be made mandatory reading for everyone, everywhere. -- THE TIMES
