But, in this revelatory study, Francesca Stavrakopoulou presents a vividly corporeal image of God: a human-shaped deity who walks and talks and weeps and laughs, who eats, sleeps, feels, and breathes, and who is undeniably male.

Anatole France (1844 – 1924), è stato uno scrittore francese, Premio Nobel per la letteratura nell'anno 1921. Nel 1896 iniziò a scrivere la Tetralogia della storia contemporanea, composto di quattro romanzi, di cui questo è il primo. I romanzi hanno per protagonista il signor Bergeret, modesto e disilluso, ma colto e arguto professore di un liceo di provincia, attraverso i cui occhi France descrive la società del suo tempo.

An enchanting collection of some of the greatest short stories ever written by notable French authors.

In questo secondo volume della tetralogia della Storia contemporanea, che segue “L’olmo del Mail”, troviamo il signor Bergeret impegnato in discussioni politiche sulla corruzione dei funzionari della Repubblica e su questioni di morale cristiana e non, mentre, nella sua vita domestica (di cui il manichino di vimini è ingrato simbolo), egli acquisisce “l’inestimabile vantaggio di essere tradito”.Cornice musicale: A real slow rag, di Scott Joplin.
