histoire tragique se déroule au long de sept tableaux successifs, où divers protagonistes prennent tour à tour la parole pour donner leur version des faits. La narration est chronologique, les récits s'enchaînent et font se dérouler l'histoire sous nos yeux. Cette nouvelle, éloquent plaidoyer en faveur du mariage librement consenti par les deux époux, s'oppose à la pratique tibétaine encore répandue de l'union arrangée par les parents. Mais, derrière la question de la liberté du mariage, se profile celle de l'affrontement entre tradition et modernité. Thöndrupgyäl prend clairement parti pour la seconde, qu'il estime nécessaire à la survie du peuple tibétain face à la société chinoise. -- 4e de couv.

By Erin Bow. 2019
A gripping new read from Erin Bow, acclaimed and bestselling author of Plain Kate and The Scorpion Rules! She had…
always heard that the eagle chooses the eagle hunter. She wanted that. She wanted her eagle to come to her. To choose her. It goes against all tradition for Aisulu to train an eagle, for among the Kazakh nomads, only men can fly them. But everything changes when Aisulu discovers that her brother, Serik, has been concealing a bad limp that risks not just his future as the family's leader, but his life too. When her parents leave to seek a cure for Serik in a distant hospital, Aisulu finds herself living with her intimidating uncle and strange auntie -- and secretly caring for an orphaned baby eagle. To save her brother and keep her family from having to leave their nomadic life behind forever, Aisulu must earn her eagle's trust and fight for her right to soar. Along the way, she discovers that family are people who choose each other, home is a place you build, and hope is a thing with feathers. Erin Bow's lyrical middle grade debut is perfect for fans of original animal-friendship stories like Pax and Because of Winn Dixie.
