Iubita locotenentului francez by John Fowles RO
Country: Europe / United Kingdom
United Kingdom
Description:
Plasata in jurul anului 1867, actiunea romanului pune in cumpana libertatea viziunii de la sfirsitul anilor ’60 ai secolului al XX-lea cu atitudinile severe ale perioadei victoriene din urma cu o suta de ani.

De fapt, succesul la public a fost explicat si prin dexteritatea cu care Fowles minuieste o intriga intru totul conventionala: triunghiul alcatuit din Charles, logodnica lui, suava... continue
