Une fois n'est pas coutume, le nouveau roman d'Olivier Norek n'est pas un polar mais un roman historique dont le sujet est un événement peu connu de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale, l'invasion de la Finlande par l'Union soviétique.
Il s'intéresse notamment à un jeune paysan, Simo, qui va devenir le sniper le plus dangereux de l'armée finlandaise, à tel point que les soldats russes le surnommeront la « Mort blanche ».
Basé sur une solide documentation, Les guerriers de l'hiver est la nouvelle pépite de l'excellent Olivier Norek.

Résumé
Authored by a team of experienced scholars and teachers and aimed at non-native students of English literature, An Introduction to Poetry in English approaches its subject from multiple angles. First the book explores in five opening chapters the musical qualities of poetic language (metre, rhythm and rhyme), poetic form (both fixed and free), the links between poetry and orality, and the transmutations of a poetic theme. Then, a selection of poems provides examples of these poetic features as well as texts for further study. Finally, eleven commentaries on works by poets from William Shakespeare to Benjamin Zephaniah demonstrate how to apply the concepts explained in the book through close readings of individuel poems.
Éric Doumerc is a I.ecturer (Maître de Conférences) in English at the University of Toulouse. His main research interests are Caribbean literature and culture, and oral poetry more generally.
