A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Richard Adams, the son of a country doctor, grew up in Berkshire and studied history at Worcester College, Oxford before and after the Second World War. He is the author of nineteen books, including the bestselling and award-winning Watership Down, his first book, the illustrated edition of which was published by Oneworld Modern Classics, 2014. Two of his books, Watership Down and Shardik, were listed in the Sunday Times top 100 bestselling books of the last forty years. He currently lives in Hampshire, England, with his wife Elizabeth, to whom he has been married for sixty-five years.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

This brilliantly inventive fantasy epic by the award-winning author of Watership Down centres on the long-awaited reincarnation of the giant bear, Shardik. His reappearance among the half-barbaric Ortelgan people sets off a violent chain of events as faith in his divinity sweeps the land. A gripping tale of war, adventure, horror and romance, Shardik, on a deeper level, is a remarkable exploration of mankind's universal desire for divine incarnation, and the corrosive influence of power.
