This is the setting for the parable of Evey, a young woman who is saved from death by a masked man calling himself only V. Beguiling and dangerous, V ignites the fuse of revolution when he urges his fellow citizens to wake up and shed the blanket of tyranny and oppression in which they have permitted themselves to be cloaked.<P><P>While those in power take steps to neutralize the threat, the police pursue the mystery of V, unaware of the terrible truth that awaits them at the end of the trail. It is Evey, however, who, with V as her enigmatic guide, sets out on the most painful path of all: a journey of deception and self-discovery, deconstruction and re-creation, vindication and vengeance. 9201 2005 V for Vendetta total:179|5:67|4:58|3:44|2:8|1:2| 179 717 271 17 5 1 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jul 16 10:57:36 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 17 07:12:48 -0700 2009 I just love this book, specialy after watching the movie, because now i could take as much time as i want in o...more...]]> 5 0 false false Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Jul 16 11:10:18 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 16 18:13:28 -0700 2009 I just love this book, specialy after watching the movie, because now i could take as much time as i want in o...more...]]> 1 0 false false Sun Apr 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Wed Mar 19 23:27:30 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 19 23:32:46 -0700 2008
