澳大利亚华裔艺术家陈志勇(Shaun Tan)的无字图像叙事作品《The Arrival》自2006年出版以来,现已迎来出版20周年1。这部共计128页的作品远超陈志勇此前32页的标准绘本篇幅,讲述了一名男子离开妻儿前往陌生城市,为家庭建立新未来的故事1。该书融合了历史现实主义与超现实科幻世界构建,以无字漫画形式让读者代入移民体验1。2007年,《纽约时报》称其“令人着迷”,并评价其讲述的是“移民的故事”而非“一个移民的故事”1。《The Arrival》获得了澳大利亚儿童图书理事会年度绘本奖、美国图书馆协会最佳青少年图书奖、Aurealis和Locus奖,以及昂古莱姆国际漫画节最佳漫画书奖等多项大奖1。
陈志勇1974年出生,父亲为马来西亚华人,母亲为英裔澳大利亚人1。他曾凭借改编自其作品的动画短片《The Lost Thing》获得奥斯卡奖,并获得阿斯特丽德·林格伦纪念奖1。2012年,陈志勇在伦敦的一次会议上将阅读本身描述为一种“迁徙”1。
Australian artist of Chinese descent Shaun Tan’s wordless visual narrative, The Arrival, is marking its 20th anniversary since its publication in 2006 1. The 128-page book far exceeds his previous standard 32-page picture books, blending historical realism with surreal science fiction world-building to immerse readers in the migrant experience through its wordless comic format 1. It tells the story of a man who leaves his wife and children to build a new future for his family in an unfamiliar city 1. In 2007, The New York Times described the book as mesmerising, noting that it tells "a story of migration" rather than "a story of a migrant" 1.
Born in 1974 to a Malaysian Chinese father and an English-Australian mother, Tan won an Academy Award for the animated short film The Lost Thing, which was adapted from his work, and received the Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award 1. The Arrival has won multiple major awards, including the Children's Book Council of Australia Book of the Year Award, the American Library Association's Best Book for Young Adults, the Aurealis and Locus Awards, and the Best Album award at the Angoulême International Comics Festival 1. During a conference in London in 2012, Tan described reading itself as a form of "migration" 1.
