SynopsisFrom breathtaking stop-action animation to bittersweet modern fairy tales, filmmaker Tim Burton has become known for his unique visual brilliance -- witty and macabre at once. Now he gives birth to a cast of gruesomely sympathetic children -- misunderstood outcasts who struggle to find love and belonging in their cruel, cruel worlds. His lovingly lurid illustrations evoke both the sweetness and the tragedy of these dark yet simple beings -- hopeful, hapless heroes who appeal to the ugly outsider in all of us, and let us laugh at a world we have long left behind (mostly anyway)., The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy is a collection of charmingly weird tales conjured from the unique imagination of acclaimed filmmaker Tim Burton--a great gift idea for fans of the acclaimed filmmaker. From breathtaking stop-action animation to bittersweet modern fairy tales, filmmaker Tim Burton has become known for his unique visual brilliance--witty and macabre at once. Now, he gives birth to a cast of gruesomely sympathetic children--misunderstood outcasts who struggle to find love and belonging in their cruel, cruel worlds. His lovingly lurid illustrations evoke both the sweetness and tragedy of these dark yet simple beings--hopeless, hapless heroes who appeal to the ugly outsider in all of us, and let us laugh at a world we have long left behind (mostly, anyway).

A diminutive tome with huge content into a genius’ mind and heart
Tim Burton’s very personal book of poems accompanied with drawings is something no fan should be without. Some of these are reproductions of Tim’s past Christmas cards though one would not be able to tell. While tragic and often bizarre, with a flair for the macabre, this tome gives one a profound insight to the authors heart and mind. Wonderfully printed and carefully produced, I can’t recommend this book highly enough.

Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy
This definitely isn't the Nightmare before Christmas, or Beetle Juice, it's darker than I thought, so not exactly recommended for children, but I loved this book and the illustrations. If you love Tim Burton, I highly recommend adding this to your collection.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
