About this listen

Depuis 1931, le dernier empereur de Chine règne sans pouvoir sur la Mandchourie occupée par l'armée japonaise. Alors que l'aristocratie tente d'oublier dans de vaines distractions la guerre et ses cruautés, une lycéenne de seize ans joue au go.

Place des Mille Vents, ses mains infaillibles manipulent les pions. Mélancolique mais fiévreuse, elle rêve d'un autre destin. "Le bonheur est un combat d'encerclement." Sur le damier, elle bat tous ses prétendants.

Mais la joueuse ignore encore son adversaire de demain : un officier japonais dur comme le métal, à peine plus âgé qu'elle, dévoué à l'utopie impérialiste. Ils s'affrontent, ils s'aiment, sans un geste, jusqu'au bout, tandis que la Chine vacille sous les coups de l'envahisseur qui tue, pille, torture.

Significant passages of the original text are ‘missed out’ meaning that the narrative does not make sense, in addition there is background music in certain sections which is distracting.
The description does not state that this is abridged and therefore I consider that I should be refunded.

Beware this is an abridged version!
