Sobre este artículo
Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company, 1976. Hardcover. Near Fine/Near Fine. Second printing. Slight spotting on foredge and cover, near fine in a near fine dust jacket with a small abrasion on the cover, and faint interior foxing. The author's splendid first novel, basis for the excellent film with Robert Duvall in the title role.
Sinopsis
The Great Santini is a novel written by Pat Conroy and published in 1976. Marine Col. Bull Meecham commands his home like a soldiers’ barracks. Cold and controlling, but also loving, Bull has complicated relationships with each member of his family—in particular, his eldest son, Ben. A born athlete who desperately seeks his father’s approval, Ben is determined to break out from the colonel’s shadow. With guidance from teachers at his new school, he strives to find the courage to stand up to his father once and for all. Inspired by Pat Conroy’s own difficult relationship with his father, The Great Santini is a captivating and unflinching portrayal of modern family, and a moving novel of a son determined to become his own man. The novel was made into a film of the same name in 1979, starring Robert Duvall in the title role.
