Περιγραφή για Fruits Of The Earth Andre Gide Vintage Classics

During the author\'s travels, he meets Menalcas, a caricature of Oscar Wilde, who relates his fantastic life story. But for all his brilliance, Menalcas is only Gide\'s yesterday self, a discarded wraith who leaves Gide free to stop exalting the ego and embrace bodily and spiritual joy. Later Fruits of the Earth, written in 1935 during Gide\'s short-lived spell of communism, reaffirms the doctrine of the earlier book. But now he sees happiness not as freedom, but a submission to heroism. In a series of \'Encounters\', Gide describes a Negro tramp, a drowned child, a lunatic and other casualties of life. These reconcile him to suffering, death and religion, causing him to insist that \'today\'s Utopia\' be \'tomorrow\'s reality\'. Σελίδες: 224, Διαστάσεις: 12.9x12.9cm
