Non lasciarmi

Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £6.12
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.

Kathy, Tommy e Ruth vivono in un collegio, Hailsham, immerso nella campagna inglese. Non hanno genitori, ma non sono neppure orfani, e crescono insieme ai compagni, accuditi da un gruppo di tutori, che si occupano della loro educazione. Fin dalla più tenera età nasce fra i tre bambini una grande amicizia. La loro vita, voluta e programmata da un'autorità superiore nascosta, sarà accompagnata dalla musica dei sentimenti, dall'intimità più calda al distacco più violento. Una delle responsabili del collegio, che i bambini chiamano semplicemente Madame, si comporta in modo strano con i piccoli. Anche gli altri tutori hanno talvolta reazioni eccessive quando i bambini pongono domande apparentemente semplici. Cosa ne sarà di loro in futuro? Che cosa significano le parole "donatore" e "assistente"? E perché i loro disegni e le loro poesie, raccolti da Madame in un luogo misterioso, sono così importanti? Non lasciarmi è prima di tutto una grande storia d'amore. È anche un romanzo politico e visionario, dove viene messa in scena un'utopia al rovescio che non vorremmo mai vedere realizzata. È uno di quei libri che agiscono sul lettore come lenti d'ingrandimento: facendogli percepire in modo intenso la fragilità e la finitezza di qualunque vita.
