El proper dia 12 de Decembre Rebecca Stevenson i Miriam Sabater tornaran a moderar la tertúlia literària en anglès, aquest cop llegirem el llibre de J.M Coetzee "Diary of a bad year" .
J.M Coetzee's Diary of a Bad Year is a meditation on the current state of the world from one of our most important authors.
The book begins with a short essay on the idea of "The State" with reference made to Kurosawa's materpiece The Seven Samurai.
At the same time, via text sharing space on the same page, the reader is made privy to an aging man's story of his blossoming obsession with a female neighbour.
Soon his object of desire, Anya, claims her own portion of each page...
Provocative in its ideas and satisfying as a story,Diary of a Bad Year exhibits the steady and straightforward tone for which Coetzee has been Known troughout his career.
