Autour du Grand Tribunal

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £4.19
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

C'est en mars 1998 que Peter Handke s'est rendu pour la première fois à La Haye afin d'assister à quelques-unes des audiences du Tribunal pénal international consacré aux crimes commis dans l'ex Yougoslavie. Quatre ans plus tard il y est retourné à l'occasion de l'ouverture du procès de Slobodan Milosevic, puis six mois après, quand les journalistes et les équipes de télévision étaient passés à autre chose. Toutefois, Handke n'écrit pas ici en chroniqueur judiciaire, ce qui l'intéresse, c'est de débusquer la réalité qui se cache derrière les récits, ceux des témoins, par exemple, qu'il rencontre au hasard dans les différents hôtels autour du tribunal. Mais les images du procès l'interpellent aussi, où juges et procureur font figures de héros de séries policières télévisées. Et pourquoi les personnages borderline des romans de Chandler et de Hammett surgissent-ils alors dans son esprit ? C'est que, dans ces lectures d'adolescence, Peter Handke a entrevu l'incertitude qui entoure le coupable comme le justicier, et que la littérature a décidément quelque chose à dire sur cette affaire-là. Mais existe-t-il témoin plus suspect qu'un écrivain ?
