Acerca deste livro eletrónico
1976, Nicaragua. "Tacit" Somoza rules the small Central American country with the support of the ruthless Guardia. The son of a powerful family from the capital, Managua, Gabriel is a young priest with an incredible talent for sacred art. He is sent to enhance his painting skills with Ruben, a priest in San Juan--a little village located at the base of a mountain. Despite his difficulty integrating with the villagers due to his father's reputation, Gabriel slowly gets to know them and, eventually, to love them. Encouraged by Ruben, he paints the villagers. He paints them as they are--men and women of flesh and blood. But Gabriel is soon witness to acts of military repression of the locals. It doesn't take long for him and the villagers to get swept away in these times of growing rebellion and smoldering revolution. Nourished by a sense of divine justice, Gabriel begins to understand the villainy of those in power and their cronies. When he's eventually taken in and treated by the guerillas camped out in the forest, he lies about his family name and swaps his pencils and paint brushes for firearms. As he gazes beyond the surface and deeper into the depths, Gabriel also discovers his own humanity, made of flesh and desires...
Acerca do autor
Né le 29 septembre 1966 à Saint-Brieuc, Emmanuel Lepage est un des nombreux "élèves" bretons de Jean-Claude Fournier. A l'âge de 13 ans, il bénéficie des conseils du père de "Bizu" et travaille ferme pour développer son talent réaliste. Le quotidien OUEST-FRANCE accueille ses illustrations en 1983 et il publie son premier album à compte d'auteur, "La Fin du monde aura-t-elle lieu ?". Créateur du fanzine VOLAPUK, il voit deux albums des "Aventures de Kelvinn" publiées par les éditions Ouest-France avant qu'il entame le siège des grands éditeurs internationaux de bandes dessinées. Le Lombard accueille en 1990 les deux volumes de "L'Envoyé", scénarisés par Georges Pernin d'après le roman d'Huguette Carrière dans la collection "Signe de Piste". Avec des textes de Dieter, il présente ensuite la série "Névé" chez Glénat, qui obtiendra le Prix Ballon Rouge au festival de Saint-Malo en 1992. En entrant dans la prestigieuse collection "Aire Libre" avec la scénariste Anne Sibran, il obtient la consécration que mérite son graphisme élégant et un remarquable don de coloriste créateur d'atmosphères. Initialement prévu pour les éditions Casterman, "La Terre sans mal" reconstitue avec une remarquable authenticité la vie des Indiens d'Amazonie, telle que perçue par une ethnologue française au moment où la Seconde Guerre mondiale fait rage en Europe.
