Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. 'The child is silent. For a while he too is silent. Then he speaks. Please believe meplease take it on faiththis is not a simple matter. The boy is without mother. What that means I cannot explain to you because I cannot explain it to myself. Yet I promise you, if you will simply say Yes, without forethought, without afterthought, all will become clear to you, as clear as day, or so I believe. Therefore: will you accept this child as yours?'David is a small boy who comes by boat across the ocean to a new country. He has been separated from his parents, and has lost the piece of paper that would have explained everything. On the boat a stranger named Simon takes it upon himself to look after the boy.On arrival they are assigned new names, new birthdates. They know little Spanish, the language of their new country, and nothing about its customs. They have also suffered a kind of forgetting of old attachments and feelings. They are people without a past.Simons goal is to find the boys mother. He feels sure he will know her when he sees her. And David? He wants to find his mother too but he also wants to understand where he is and how he fits in. He is a boy who is always asking questions.The Childhood of Jesus is not like any other novel you have read. This beautiful and surprising fable is about childhood, about destiny, about being an outsider. It is a novel about the riddle of experience itself.

Paperback. Condition: New. New; Depois de mais de quatro décadas de carreira literária, o sul-africano J.M. Coetzee revisita seus temas prediletos em seu novo romance.Em A infância de Jesus, J.M. Coetzee, ganhador do prêmio Nobel de 2003, imagina um país de estrangeiros que, depois de atravessar o oceano, pagam com o esquecimento da própria trajetória a oportunidade de começar uma vida nova.A condição de estrangeiro também impõe uma língua nova, no caso, um espanhol adquirido precariamente e que ninguém domina por completo.O leitor é guiado pelo olhar de Simón, recém-chegado que se atribui o papel de guardião de um menino de cinco anos e vai trabalhar como estivador, carregando sacos de grãos de trigo. A subsistência - o simples sustento pelo pão de cada dia - parece ser a única finalidade à qual se dirige a rotina do lugar, onde todos parecem se conformar, não só no que diz respeito à alimentação, a uma dieta moderada.Inadaptado e insatisfeito, ainda que ansioso por compreender e ser aceito, Simón tenta fazer valer os direitos de alguém cujo corpo continua impregnado de memórias.Nascido numa família africânder que usava o inglês dentro de casa, Coetzee fez do desconforto linguístico um dos temas de sua ficção. É com esse sentido de estranhamento que Simón trava debates filosóficos com os camaradas, na "ágora" da estiva, e faz o possível para explicar às mulheres um dos fatos mais básicos (e misteriosos) da vida: o desejo.Cuidando da criança que um acidente lhe confiou e se lançando numa peculiar missão em nome dela, esse homem estabelece vínculos através dos quais a vida em família e a afetividade são expressas em sua face mais estranha.; 304 pages.
