Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Chaque chose peut avoir son contraire. Le jeune Tom Motmotty, douze ans, va l'apprendre à ses dépens quand il se retrouve à l'intérieur d'un parc très particulier, qui serait l'exact opposé de Disneyland. Avec pour thèmes principaux, la guerre, la destruction, la haine, le mensonge, la crasse et le désespoir, entre autres. Lui, son père Louis et sa soeur aînée Roxanne n'en sortiront pas forcément dans les meilleures dispositions. Mais à défaut d'être totalement divertis, ils auront beaucoup appris. Jack Felson, l'auteur de 'Charlie's Trips', signe ici un réquisitoire contre toutes les formes d'impérialisme et tous les conflits aussi inutiles que sanglants qui vont avec, et perpétrés uniquement au nom de l'argent roi. C'est aussi une réflexion sur le terrorisme contemporain, ici traité comme une réponse inévitable à l'impérialisme. Rédigé dans un style précis et dépouillé à l'extrême, un puissant récit de politique-fiction, particulièrement décapant, qui ne manque pas d'humour.…
