Review:
"Terra Nostra is the spreading out of the novel, the exploration of its possibilities, the voyage to the edge of what only a novelist can see and say."

Book Description Paperback. Condition: NEUF. Paris, à la veille de l'an 2000. Les flagellants investissent Saint-Germain-des-Prés. Les fumées de l'holocauste s'élèvent des tours de Saint-Sulpice. Sur les quais, des femmes de tous âges accouchent d'enfants mâles, marqués du sceau de l'Usurpateur : une croix de chair sur l'omoplate et six orteils à chaque pied. Il ne reste de l'Amérique latine que des terres ravagées et quelques réfugiés, mémoire de leur culture.Abolissant toute chronologie au profit d'un temps réel qui contiendrait tous les temps, Carlos Fuentes nous restitue l'histoire et les mythes : Charles Quint, Philippe II, Charles II composent la figure du Grand Monarque. Don Quichotte côtoie Don Juan. Jeanne la Folle croise des inventeurs d'hérésie, des artistes et des fous, des criminels, de superbes personnages romanesques.Un maître livre. - Nombre de page(s) : 755 p. - Poids : 0g - Langue : fre - Genre : Littérature Romans Poche Folio.
