Cartea autorului Ted Huges „Barbatul de Fier The Iron Man (Editie bilingva) de Ted Huges" de la editura ART GRUP EDITORIAL

Nimeni nu stie de unde a venit uriasul de fier inspaimantator care le mananca tractoarele, plugurile, masinile si le da vietile peste cap, asa ca oamenilor li se face frica si, decisi sa scape de el, il ingroapa undeva la poalele unui deal si-l acopera cu pamant. Insa gigantul nu sta multa vreme ingropat si iese chiar la timp sa incerce sa salveze lumea de Ingerdracliliacul-cosmic, un monstru venit din spatiu, care ameninta sa distruga planeta.

Ted Hughes – unul dintre cei mai mari poeti de limba engleza ai secolului trecut – scrie o poveste aparte si densa ca o poezie; in parte istorioara fantasy, menita initial propriilor copii, in parte naratiune SF, acest basm modern a fost publicat in milioane de exemplare.


„Considerata una dintre cele mai mari povestiri moderne.”  The Observer

„Hughes n-a scris niciodata mai convingator de-atat.” The Times


 

Nobody knows where the frightening iron giant came from, that is now eating their tractors, their plows, their cars, and making a mess of their lives, and so people are suddenly scared and, having decided to get rid of him, they bury him deep at the foot of a hill, covering him with earth. But the giant will not stay buried for long and gets out just in time to save the world from the space-bat-angel-dragon, a monster from outer space, threatening to destroy the planet.

Ted Hughes, one of the greatest English language poets of the last century, writes a unique story, as dense as a poem; partly a fantasy tale, originally written for his own children, and party a sci-fi one, this modern fairy tale


"Reckoned one of the greatest of modern fairy tales." The Observer

"Hughes has never written more compellingly… with linguistic tact and imaginative power to achieve something of possible enduring consequence." The Times
