当昆汀·布莱克(Quentin Blake)着手创作一组关于旅行幻想的新画作时，就连他自己也没想到会创作出像《月光旅行者》这样阴郁、阴森的系列。这些水彩画的旅程通过不为人知的风景，以无与伦比的技巧，所有的神秘和阴谋的死亡之夜。独特的合作，这本书带来了布莱克的可怕的机智对话与富有想象力的洞察力的意志自我。以其特有的敏锐，自我混合的小说，事实和飞行的记忆，运输读者在一个激进的旅行布雷克的神秘土地。在月光下的旅行者，两个创造性的头脑在他们的力量的高度连接文字和图像，黑暗和光明与我们最深的敏感性。他们用八个轮子的装置和带翼的机器带我们踏上梦幻般的旅程。毕竟，“至少在人类历史的这一阶段，没有什么比乘车旅行更乏味的了。”

The moon drives everyone mad – you know that, well enough. But this is no lycanthropic or otherwise spooky metamorphosis: it’s far stranger than that…’ When Quentin Blake embarked on creating a set of new drawings on fantasies of travel, even he had not envisaged a series so sombre, so haunting, as Moonlight Travellers. These watercolour journeys through unknown landscapes capture, with unmatched skill, all the mystery and intrigue of the dead of night. A unique collaboration, this book brings Blake’s macabre wit into dialogue with the imaginative insight of Will Self. With characteristic sharpness, Self mingles fiction, fact and flights of memory to transport the reader on a radical tour of Blake’s mysterious lands. In Moonlight Travellers, two creative minds at the height of their powers connect word and image, darkness and light with our deepest sensibilities. In eight-

wheeled contraptions and winged machines, they carry us on a trail of dreamlike journeys. After all, ‘there’s nothing more prosaic – at least, at this end of human history – than a car journey.’
