英文简介:
From one of the great modern masters of the fantastic, “A beautiful, brilliant, meditation on art, love, inspiration and what makes life worthwhile.
“– Neil Gaiman “[Carroll’s] prose is spare, polished and quick-moving, sometimes lightly comic, always immensely engaging.

Mr.
Breakfast is pure pleasure to read.
It will surprise you, make you laugh and scare you — and then, just when you think it’s over, add several extra twists.
” – Michael Dirda, The Washington Post Graham Patterson’s life has hit a dead end.
His career as a comedian is failing.
The love of his life recently broke up with him and he literally has no idea what to do next.
With nothing to lose, he buys a new car and hits the road, planning to drive across country and hopefully figure out his next moves before reaching California.
But along the way Patterson does something his old self would never have even considered: he gets tattooed by a brilliant tattoo artist in North Carolina.
The decision sets off a series of extraordinary events that changes his life forever in ways he never could have imagined.
Among other things, Patterson is gifted with the ability to see in real time three different lives that are available to him.
The choice is his: The life he is leading right now, or two very different ones.
In all of them there is love or fame and of course danger because once he has chosen, there is no telling what will happen next.
Mr.
Breakfast is a dazzling, absorbing and deeply moving novel about the choices that we have to confront and face, confirming Jonathan Carroll’s status as one of our greatest and most imaginative storytellers.

但在此过程中,帕特森做了一件他以前的自己从未想过的事情:他在北卡罗来纳州接受了一位才华横溢的纹身艺术家的纹身。
这个决定引发了一系列非同寻常的事件,这些事件以他从未想过的方式永远改变了他的生活。
