Reseña del editor:
Set in gloomy Soviet-controlled Poland, yet sparkling with light and warmth, Madame is a story of adolescence with which many will identify. The novel's hero - a precocious, talented and hugely likeable schoolboy - falls hopelessly under the spell of his elegant and mysterious French teacher. Bewitched with her glacial beauty and cool intelligence, he resolves to learn everything he can about her. And, ultimately, to win her heart. In a sequence of marvellously funny, but sobering manoeuvres, he finds out much more than he expected - about politics, Poland and the Spanish Civil War, and about his own family's shrouded past. His quest allows him to take his first steps to liberation as an artist; but can he ensnare the elusive Madame?

Descripción Condición: Near Fine. A crisp clean softcover, no markings throughout: A teenage boy's doomed love for his glamorous French instructor in 1960s Poland informs the masterfully constructed debut of Warsaw critic and drama director Libera. When a beautiful 32-year-old teacher, known primarily as "Madame," takes over the narrator's high school French class, he is entranced by her combination of austere intelligence and immaculate beauty. He soon begins following her and researching her life to feed his obsession. When he flirtatiously taunts her in class with covert references to her past, she seems only mildly indignant. Finally, he discovers that she is the daughter of a man who left Poland for political reasons during the 1940s, and that she has felt uncertain of her own identity for much of her adult life; this revelation fills him with empathy for her. The unlikely chemistry between the immature pupil and his adult teacher is electrifying, and the tantalizing pace builds to a mystifying and heart-wrenching climax. Libera paints the narrator's obsession with Madame with a wit worthy of Nabokov (in a crystalline translation by Kolakowska) as his satire of the youth's reckless romantic impulse mixes with heated romantic intrigue. In the course of researching his amour, the narrator sees Picasso's The Human Comedy drawings and Lelouch's film A Man and a Woman, both new at the time; the attitude toward physical and psychological love expressed in both adds a complex and fitting symbolism to the intense politics and passion in the narrative. The layers of the student's obsession unravel with impressive measure as well, even if Libera occasionally gi. Nº de ref. del artículo: RWARE0000020631
