«Le Dieu du carnage» is the stage comedy by Yasmina Reza, published by Magnard in paperback (112 pages, in French).
Two couples of parents meet to amicably resolve a fight between their children, but the initial courtesy cracks and the conversation turns into a fierce confrontation. What begins as an impeccable bourgeois salon becomes a battlefield where the society of appearances and the fragility of good manners are satirized.
It belongs to Magnard's Classiques & Contemporains collection, presents the complete text of the play and includes a pedagogical apparatus with an interview with Yasmina Reza.
Recommended for the troisième, seconde, première and terminale levels of the French education system, in general and vocational education.
