このコンテンツについて

John Kennedy Toole was an American novelist, soldier, and professor who won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction in 1981. Toole wrote the novel The League of Fools in 1969. The novel was published in 1980, eleven years after Toole's suicide, and earned the late author the Pulitzer Prize.

The story begins with a simple image. A boy sitting on a train, whose destination the reader knows neither, nor the reason for the journey. Even in that first chapter, we do not get detailed information about the boy, but only through the feelings and emotions he expresses, we understand his seemingly calm and troubled mind.

On the other hand, the author presents us with a completely cinematic image. This train is the boy's life. A train that drives on bumpy tracks and introduces us to a scene from David's life through each window.

The narrative of his life begins in childhood. When he does not understand much about the external situation, but the efforts, expressions of emotions, and angles of view that the author presents to the reader are unique.
