About this Product

"The Giant" is a satirical tale about a leader and his followers, people who </p>blindly follow him for their own positions. </p>The main character is the Committee Secretary in a small town. Thanks </p>to his sycophantic behavior, the reader encounters numerous hilarious </p>scenes in the novel. The Committee Secretary wants to give the leaders </p>name to all kindergartens, schools, and other institutions. Of course, the </p>leader deserves to have even the main street in the city named after him, </p>but there are no streets long enough, so neighboring villages are annexed </p>to the city. Many buildings are demolished to make way for this street. </p>He wants to erect a huge monument to the living leader in the center of the </p>city, so he orders the demolition of museum buildings and other cultural </p>and historical sites. When the sculptor finished the monument, news </p>arrived that the leaders hand had been amputated, causing panic. The </p>sculptor found a solution, he also amputated the hand of the monument. </p>They invited the leader to unveil the monument himself. Thats when they </p>saw that he had been fitted with an artificial hand. They wanted to return </p>the hand to the monument, but it ended up in the trash and was swept </p>away by the river in a big flood. When they realized they couldnt add a </p>hand to the monument, they decided to bury it. The burial took place at </p>night, in secret. Representatives of the city authorities believed that the </p>leaders monument could not be buried without appropriate speeches and </p>a funeral march, so the burial turned into a real comedy. </p>These are just the most striking scenes from the novel.</p>
