莫里斯·桑達(dá)克
早年生活
莫里斯·桑達(dá)克生于美國紐約布魯克林,雙親皆為波蘭猶太籍移民,而父親是一名裁縫。 桑達(dá)克形容自己的童年為“可怕的光景”,因為他的親戚死于猶太人大當(dāng)中,讓年紀(jì)小小的他一早就已經(jīng)體會到死亡。 早年他因健康問題長期臥床,卻培養(yǎng)了喜愛閱讀的習(xí)慣。 十二歲那年他看過了華特·迪士尼的幻想曲后,就志愿要成為一位插圖家。而他第一份工作,就是為玩具店F.A.O. Schwarz設(shè)計櫥窗。 一九四七年,桑達(dá)克的插畫首次出版,出現(xiàn)在一本名為《Atomics for the Millions》的教科書,作者是Dr. Maxwell Leigh Eidinoff。一九五○年代,在桑達(dá)克開始寫自己的故事之前,他多數(shù)在為其他作者的童書畫插畫。
個人生活
桑達(dá)克曾在2008年9月于《》上提及自己同性戀的身份,并跟他的伴侶心理分析家Eugene Glynn博士同居了五十年。他從未向自己父母出柜,并說:“我只希望自己是異性戀的,那我的父母就高興了;他們永遠(yuǎn)、永遠(yuǎn)、永遠(yuǎn)不知道。”
逝世
桑達(dá)克在2012年5月8日的早上因為腦中風(fēng)的并發(fā)癥于美國康涅狄格州丹伯里離世,終年83歲。
著作
桑達(dá)克在自寫自畫《野獸國》之后獲得國際聲譽(yù)。初出版時,這部描繪尖牙怪獸的作品使某些家長感到憂心,因為里面的角色長相顯得相當(dāng)荒誕。在《野獸國》之前,桑達(dá)克最知名的作品是為Else Holmelund Minarik的《小熊》系列著作所畫的插畫。
當(dāng)桑達(dá)克在Harper & Row公司編輯的桌上看到Isaac Bashevis Singer第一篇兒童故事《Zlateh the Goat》的稿件時,他主動表示要為這部作品畫插畫。這本書在一九六六年首次出版,獲得紐伯瑞獎。桑達(dá)克對于這次的合作感到愉快,有滿腔熱忱。他曾經(jīng)以揶揄的口氣說他和Singer合作,“終于”讓他的父母對他們最小的孩子留下深刻印象。
桑達(dá)克的《廚房之夜狂想曲In the Night Kitchen》(格林出版)于一九七○出版,這部作品經(jīng)常涉及審查議題,因為書中的小男孩在畫面中都是裸身走動著。這本書在美國好幾個州都遭到非議,包括伊利諾伊、新澤西、明尼蘇達(dá)及德州?!稄N房之夜狂想曲》經(jīng)常出現(xiàn)在美國圖書館協(xié)會的“常禁書單”。在一九九○~一九九九年間一百本最常遭非議的書單當(dāng)中名列第二十一。
一九八一年出版的《在那遙遠(yuǎn)的地方Outside Over There》(麥田出版),故事是關(guān)于一個叫做Ida的女孩,探討她對于兄弟姐妹的嫉妒情結(jié)及其責(zé)任感。她的父親離家,Ida被留下來看顧妹妹,這使她相當(dāng)失望。她妹妹遭小妖精(goblins)綁架,Ida必須展開一段奇幻旅程去解救妹妹。一開始她并不真的渴望找到妹妹,在尋找的過程中,她受神奇的事物吸引,幾乎與妹妹擦身而過。最后,她救出妹妹,毀滅小妖精,返家并許諾在父親回家之前會擔(dān)起照顧妹妹的責(zé)任。
