Trilogie d'une nuit d'hiver Tome 2 : La fille dans la tour
La cour du grand-prince, à Moscou, est gangrenée par les luttes de pouvoir. Pendant ce temps, dans les campagnes, d'invisibles bandits incendient les villages, tuent les paysans et kidnappent les fillettes. Le prince Dimitri Ivanovitch n'a donc d'autre choix que de partir à leur recherche s'il ne veut pas que son peuple finisse par se rebeller. En chemin, sa troupe croise un mystérieux jeune homme chevauchant un cheval digne d'un noble seigneur. Le seul à reconnaître le garçon est un prêtre, Sacha. Et il ne peut révéler ce qu'il sait : le cavalier n'est autre que sa plus jeune soeur, qu'il a quittée il y a des années alors qu'elle n'était encore qu'une fillette, Vassia. La fille dans la tour est le deuxième tome de la "Trilogie d'une nuit d'hiver", mais peut se lire indépendamment. On y retrouve toute la poésie et la sombre cruauté des contes russes qui ont fait le succès de L'Ours et le Rossignol.EpuiséVOIR PRODUIT9,50 €

The Godfather
The story of Don Vito Corleone, the head of a New York Mafia family, inspired some of the most successful movies ever. It is in Mario Puzo's The Godfather that Corleone first appears. As Corleone's desperate struggle to control the Mafia underworld unfolds, so does the story of his family. The novel is full of exquisitely detailed characters who, despite leading unconventional lifestyles within a notorious crime family, experience the triumphs and failures of the human condition. Filled with the requisite valor, love, and rancor of a great epic, The Godfather is the definitive gangster novel.En stockCOMMANDER14,00 € -
