5.0 out of 5 stars Extreme satire- an absolute masterpiece, January 2, 2000
This review is from: The Award (Hardcover)
Salvayre explores the effects modern industrial factories have upon the lives of modern people. The satire is often over the top and bitting in tone. The Award consist of a series of speeches givin at a corporate awards ceremony and is a quick read. Providing a juxtaposed contrast to the very humorous monologues is a riot in the far in of the factory moving toward the ceremony.

Many ideological perspectives are portrayed throught the various speakers. Being French, Salvayre provides unique insights into the state of current of future worker/ management relations that many Americans would often overlook.
