Description

 Belle b�?�ªte, La - The Beautiful Beast

La Belle B�?�ªte is a powerful study of the conflict between beauty and ugliness, hate and love. The story revolves around three main characters. At the center, Patrice, a beautiful but mindless youth stands gazing at his image in the water. Around him move his ugly sister Isabelle-Marie, and his frivolous mother Louise, the first lost in love and hate for her brother\\\'s beauty, the second seeing it as an adornment for herself. Into this small, obsessed universe come a blind boy and an elegant fop from the outside world. At once, the pattern breaks and events move forward into a terrifying denouement. This astonishing first novel caused a sensation when it appeared, and catapulted its young French-Canadian author, Marie-Claire Blais into literary stardom. 

The Beautiful Beast �?�¤r baserad p�?�¥ en roman av den kontroversiella kanadensiska f�?�¶rfattarinnan Marie-Claire Blais; en iskall, chockerande och skr�?�¤mmande studie om en familj som spricker inifr�?�¥n av illa dold fiendskap. �??nkan Louise har en n�?�¥got f�?�¶r n�?�¤ra relation till sin vackre men efterblivne son, alltmedan hennes dotter slits mellan k�?�¤rlek till sin bror, avundsjuka och psykotiska tendenser. En dag dyker modern upp med en ny man och i en familj d�?�¤r svartsjuka och psykisk terror �?�¤r vardag kan detta enbart sluta i katastrof...

Hyllad av publik, fruktad av myndigheter; Subconscious Cruelty bef�?�¤ste Karim Hussain - Kanadas enfant terrible - som en av v�?�¥r tids mest kompromissl�?�¶sa nya filmskapare. Sedan debuten har han f�?�¥tt sin konst beslagtagen, beskyllts f�?�¶r obscenitet, och massakrerats av censuren v�?�¤rlden �?�¶ver! I The Beautiful Beast skapar han beg�?�¥vat en blandning av familjedrama och psykologisk thriller d�?�¤r den annalkande underg�?�¥ngen aldrig k�?�¤nns l�?�¥ngt borta.
