Résumé One day, in an imaginary country south of the border, a bull with the gift of speech disrupts the work of a peasant family, the Libertads. Simon Libertad, who is celebrating his tenth birthday that day, must return this extraordinary bull to the King. Simon suddenly finds himself caught up in a series of intrigues between a King who has lost his ability to laugh, a Colonel who is greedy for
power, and a Princess who is forced to discover the "real world." Extrait « COLONEL : (He comes back with the bull.) My King! Here is the talking bull. / KING : Bravo, Corporal, I hereby name you Lieutenant. / COLONEL : Thank you, my king. / KING : Well then, Bull! Show us your talent as a big talker. Ha ha ha! I'm sure you really know how to "shoot the bull". Ha ha ha! (He laughs at his own joke) Well, Admiral, laugh! ... I just made a joke. / KING : (A firm command) Laugh! (The colonel laughs without laughing.) » |
