The narrator and his best friend, Luo, guilty of being the sons of doctors, find themselves in a remote village where, among the peasants of Phoenix mountain, they are made to cart buckets of excrement up and down precipitous winding paths. Their meager distractions include a violin--as well as, before long, the beautiful daughter of the local tailor. But it is when the two discover a hidden stash of Western classics in Chinese translation that their re-education takes its most surprising turn. While ingeniously concealing their forbidden treasure, the boys find transit to worlds they had thought lost forever. And after listening to their dangerously seductive retellings of Balzac, even the Little Seamstress will be forever transformed.

The Handmaid's Tale / Margaret Atwood

Public ISBD Titre : The Handmaid's Tale Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Margaret Atwood (1939-....), Auteur Editeur : Anchor Books Année de publication : 1998 Importance : 311 p. Présentation : couv. ill. Format : 21 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-0-385-49081-8 Prix : 13700 KRW Langues : Français (fre) Langues originales : Anglais (eng) Catégories : 3 Culture:3.40 Littérature:Forme et genre littéraire:Anticipation 3 Culture:3.40 Littérature:Forme et genre littéraire:Prose:Roman 3 Culture:3.40 Littérature:Littérature nationale:Littérature nord-américaine Résumé : The Handmaid's Tale is not only a radical and brilliant departure for Margaret Atwood, it is a novel of such power that the reader will be unable to forget its images and its forecast. Set in the near future, it describes life in what was once the United States, now called the Republic of Gilead, a monotheocracy that has reacted to social unrest and a sharply declining birthrate by reverting to, and going beyond, the repressive intolerance of the original Puritans. The regime takes the Book of Genesis absolutely at its world, with bizarre consequences for the women and men of its population. The story is told through the eyes of Offred, one of the unfortunate Handmaids under the new social order. In condensed but eloquent prose, by turns cool-eyed, tender, despairing, passionate, and wry, she reveals to us the dark corners behind the establishment's calm façade, as certain tendencies now in existence are carried to their logical conclusions. The Handmaid's Tale is funny, unexpected, horrifying, and altogether convincing. It is at once scathing satire, dire warning, and tour de force.
