«Aldabra: La tortue qui aimait Shakespeare» is the children's novel by Silvana Gandolfi, published by Seuil Jeunesse in paperback (157 pages, in French).
Elisa crosses Venice every day to visit her grandmother Eia, with whom she shares afternoons reciting Shakespeare's plays. When the old woman begins to transform into a giant Aldabra tortoise, Elisa tries to protect her so she won't be locked up again. A story that moves between reality and the fantastic.
The novel comes from the Italian «Aldabra. La tartaruga che amava Shakespeare», translated into French by Nathalie Bauer. The 2008 French edition belongs to the Chapitre collection of Seuil Jeunesse.
Aimed at readers aged 9 to 12, especially those who enjoy fantastic stories, animals and Shakespeare's theater.
