Steve Tesich Książki

Based on a screenplay written by Steve Tesich for the 1981 film Eyewitness.

Set in a landscape stripped bare by civil war, two “independents” forge an alliance of convenience in order to buy their way into the land of the free, the one safe haven in an otherwise lawless landscape. Hiding from marauding armies, they travel the country, gathering great art treasures from crumbling museums. But with the border to freedom in sight, they're captured by forces from the new coalition government. They can still buy their freedom – if they agree to do one little job for the new government.

Oscar-winning writer Steve Tesich masterfully creates and destroys the sad, mad world of Saul Karoo.Karoo is an alcoholic who can't get drunk, a loving father who can't bear to be alone with his son, a fixer of film scripts who admits that he ruins every one of them.

Le temps d'un été, Daniel Price est emporté par le tourbillon de douleur, d'exaltation, de colère et de passion qui fera de lui un homme. Tandis que son père agonise lentement, il est englouti par la force d'un premier amour. Dix-huit ans, bientôt diplômé et accompagné de ses deux amis aussi paumés que lui, ce dernier été est un adieu à l'adolescence, bouleversante de contradictions.
