À propos de ce contenu audio

 Once again blending multiple story strands that transcend time and place, Grasshopper Jungle author Andrew Smith tells the story of 15-year-old Ariel, a refugee from the Middle East who is the sole survivor of an attack on his small village. Now living with an adoptive family in Sunday, West Virginia, Ariel's story of his summer at a boys' camp for tech detox is juxtaposed against those of a schizophrenic bomber and the diaries of a failed arctic expedition from the late nineteenth century. Oh, and there’s also a depressed bionic reincarnated crow. Famille et relations Roman et littérature Situations difficiles

Commentaires

“Therein lies the brilliance of Andrew Smith. He somehow always finds a way to turn the reader inside out, by grounding the farcical or turning mad science and vomit into art.”—New York Times Book Review

“Andrew Smith is unequivocally one of the reigning kings of YA.”—Bustle

“The weirdness shakes out ridiculously well in this often humorous and touching sci-fi tome.”—USA Today

“Magnificently bizarre, irreverent and bitingly witty”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“Smith is a spiritual heir to Kurt Vonnegut”—Booklist, starred review

“Fans of Smith’s raunchy, profane, and provocative work will find this funny but morally serious tale deeply appealing.”—Publishers Weekly, starred review

“A smartly cohesive exploration of survival and extinction, and the control humans have (or shouldn’t have) over such matters.”—Horn Book, starred review

“Smith takes [readers] to a place where humanity is imbued with the potential to render people inhuman . . . and reminding us that being human, all too human, is far better than any conceivable alternative.”—BCCB, starred review
