About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
As you read this summary, you will discover that a giant is best placed to show the best way to grow.
You will also discover :
- that to grow up is to learn to moderate yourself;
- that it is possible to laugh at everything and at any age;
- that the philosophy of humanists combines books and sports;
- who is behind the narrator, Alcofribas Nasier;
- that Rabelais did not invent Gargantua.
The giants are creatures present in all literature and through all the centuries, from ancient poetry to contemporary science fiction. Two of the most famous are undoubtedly Gargantua and his son Pantagruel, who left to the language the adjectives "gargantuan", for "enormous", and "pantagruelic" for "worthy of a very big eater". If the giants are so gigantic, it is mainly because they eat a lot, but above all because they have an insatiable appetite for learning. How did Gargantua, who was at first a terrible and tyrannical child, become a wise ruler and a model adult?
