Condition: Bueno. : En la Nueva Zelanda de los años 30, Klynham es una pequeña y tranquila ciudad. Hasta la llegada del Espantapájaros, un gigante mago que se hace amigo del enterrador. A partir de entonces, se sucederán casos cada vez más graves: robos de gallinas, muertes sospechosas, desapariciones, incendios, violaciones y a…sesinatos. Crónica llena de velocidad, pero también novela negra, L'Épouvantail posee el encanto venenoso de La noche del cazador. Este libro encantador es obra de un neozelandés que escribió poco y permaneció desconocido en su propio país. Fue Australia quien lo sacó de la oscuridad, así como el cine, ya que L'Épouvantail fue objeto de una película con John Carradine. EAN: 9782743615758 Tipo: Libros Categoría: Otros Título: L'Épouvantail Autor: Ronald Hugh Morrieson Editorial: Rivages Idioma: fr-FR Páginas: 285 Formato: libro de bolsillo.

Dust wrapper worn, chipped and stained, with insect spotting on front cover, shelf wear and tears at folds, chipped at the head of the spine, tear on the back cover. Ronald Hugh Morrieson was a New Zeal…and writer in the vernacular whose short stories and novels were only widely appreciated after his death. Came a Hot Friday was published during Morrieson's lifetime, and received favourable reviews. The story of 'two smart spielers who have a trick to play on the local bookmaker' becomes a tale of 'arson, bashing, murder, sex, crown-and-anchor parties in a lonely woodshed and hair-raising midnight adventures along the river with the fantastic Te Whakinga Kid.' A 1985 film adaption proved to be one of the most successful New Zealand feature films of the 1980s.
