Frank Quinlan and Huey Driscoll are asked two reporters by one with seat Chicago popular daily, together with Dorothy Winters, a ‘Engel’s expert’, to travel to rural Iowa to examine a claim of an old woman that she divides her house with a real, living archangel called Michael. On the arrival they see that her claims are true - but Michael is not what they expected: He, smokes drink beer, has a very active libido and has a quite coloured vocabulary. Really they would never think that it was not it for two feathery wings which come out from his back. Michael is ready to travel to Chicago with the three group, but what they do not understand, is that the trip, they plan to take over, her lives for good will change.

Auf die Ankunft sehen sie, dass ihre Ansprüche wahr sind - aber Michael ist nicht, was sie erwarteten: Er, raucht Getränkbier, hat eine sehr aktive Libido und hat ein ziemlich buntes Vokabular. Tatsächlich würden sie nie glauben, dass es es nicht für die zwei federartigen Flügel war, die von seinem Rücken hervortreten. Michael ist bereit, nach Chicago mit der Dreiergruppe zu reisen, aber was sie nicht begreifen, ist, dass die Reise, die sie vorhaben zu übernehmen, ihre Leben für immer ändern wird.

” The Man who Would Be the King” is two ambitious ex-soldiers posted in India which began becoming the rules of a whole country. Having ended their military service in India, Daniel Dravot and Carnehan de Pêche decided that India is “too small for the similar of them, “therefore they decide to corrupt a local sovereign and to extort from him some money, to buy twenty guns of Martini, which they will use to take back villages in Kafristan. They face up a lot of challenges and in dangers along the way, by including the difficult ground, indigenous hostile, by freezing temperatures and avalanche high in mountains. They come finally to a small village, Urheb, where they meet the Fish of Baguette and of Ootah, an Indian who speaks English; he becomes then their translator. They form then the indigenous of this village to use guns and soon to win the village after the village. During a battle, Daniel is hit by an arrow which sticks obviously of its chest. Indigenous ignorant think that he must be God to have died and to fall and to begin loving him. Daniel and of Peach decides that it would be easier for “God” to take back the country, therefore they make semblance that Daniel is God, the son of Alexander le Grand who was productive after 2200 years once again to govern Kafristan. The whole country celebrated the return of their new rule, the Son de Segunda (”Alexander) (”). As a token of their admiration, the holiest of holy men gives to Daniel all gold and wealth left by Alexander in 328 B. C. He is to make enough them the richest men in the world. Everything goes well up to the ego of Daniel and avarice accepts the best of him. He asks of Peach to bow when he walks in front of him. He says later about Peach that he decided to stay and thinks now that he is the son of Alexander (’in mind, anyways”) and that to accomplish his destiny, he will get married to Roxanne, as his “father Alexander” made before him. Kafiri thinks that a lethal cannot get married to God, but Daniel leaves in front of in any case. Of peach was shown to leave with his part of treasure, but Daniel persuaded him to stay “for the sake of old time” for marriage. In the ceremony, Roxanne, by thinking that she would die soon, bites Daniel, by drawing the blood. The whole crowd realises that as Danny loses blood, that he is a man, not God and that he deceived them the whole time. The lively gestures of peach Daniel and they leave by running with their twenty soldiers, by pulling on the crowd of monks who began killing them. They are finally captured and Daniel is forced to go out on a bridge of rope. The monks cut ropes and Daniel falls courageously to his death. Of peach is later crucified; when they come to come into the world him according to, he is always alive and they say that it is a miracle which he lived and they reduce him. He gives in finally in the valley and recovers Danny’s head, still by carrying the crown. He brings it back in Rudyard Kipling, an author for Star of the North, as proof that Daniel fulfilled his purpose and became the king de Kafristan. Topics developed in history: 1. ambition 2. friendship 3. fact to take risks 4. the perseverance not (abandoning) 5. be able 6. honour and dignity.

” L’Homme qui Serait le Roi” est environ deux ex-soldats ambitieux postés en Inde qui a commencé à devenir les règles d’un pays entier. Après avoir fini leur service militaire en Inde, Daniel Dravot et Carnehan de Pêche ont décidé que l’Inde est “trop petite pour les semblables d’entre eux,” donc ils décident de corrompre un souverain local et lui extorquer de l’argent, pour acheter vingt fusils de Martini, qu’ils utiliseront pour reprendre des villages dans Kafristan. Ils font face à beaucoup de défis et à périls le long de la voie, en incluant le terrain difficile, les indigènes hostiles, en congelant des températures et une avalanche haut dans les montagnes. Ils viennent finalement à un petit village, Urheb, où ils rencontrent le Poisson de Baguette et d’Ootah, un Indien qui parle anglais; il devient alors leur traducteur. Ils forment alors les indigènes de ce village à utiliser les fusils et bientôt conquérir le village après le village. Pendant une bataille, Daniel est frappé par une flèche qui colle apparemment de sa poitrine. Les indigènes ignorants croient qu’il doit être Dieu pour n’être mort et tomber et commencer à l’adorer. Daniel et de Pêche décide qu’il serait plus facile pour “Dieu” de reprendre le pays, donc ils font semblants que Daniel est Dieu, le fils d’Alexander le Grand qui a rendu après 2200 ans de nouveau gouverner Kafristan. Le pays entier a célébré le retour de leur nouvelle règle, le Fils de Segunda (”Alexander”). Comme un jeton de leur admiration, le plus saint d’hommes saints donne à Daniel tout l’or et la richesse quittée par Alexander dans 328 B. C. Il est assez de les rendre les hommes les plus riches dans le monde. Tout va bien jusqu’à l’ego de Daniel et l’avarice reçoit le meilleur de lui. Il demande de Pêche de s’incliner quand il marche devant lui. Il dit plus tard de Pêche qu’il a décidé de rester et croit maintenant qu’il est le fils d’Alexander (’dans l’esprit, anyways”) et que pour réaliser son destin, il se mariera avec Roxanne, comme son “père Alexander” a fait avant lui. Kafiri croit qu’un mortel ne peut pas se marier avec Dieu, mais Daniel part devant de toute façon. De pêche a été montré pour partir avec sa part du trésor, mais Daniel l’a persuadé de rester “pour le saké de vieux temps” pour le mariage. À la cérémonie, Roxanne, en croyant qu’elle mourrait bientôt, mord Daniel, en tirant le sang. La foule entière se rend compte que comme Danny saigne, qu’il est un homme, pas Dieu et qu’il les a trompés le temps entier. Les gestes vifs de pêche Daniel et eux partent en courant avec leurs vingt soldats, en tirant sur la foule de moines qui ont commencé à les tuer. Ils sont finalement capturés et Daniel est forcé à sortir sur un pont de corde. Les moines coupent les cordes et Daniel tombe courageusement à sa mort. De pêche est plus tard crucifié; quand ils viennent pour le voir le jour suivant, il est toujours vivant et ils disent que c’est un miracle qu’il a vécu et ils le réduisent. Il cède finalement dans la vallée et récupère la tête de Danny, en portant encore la couronne. Il le rapporte à Rudyard Kipling, un auteur pour l’Étoile du Nord, comme la preuve que Daniel a accompli son but et est devenu le Roi de Kafristan. Les thèmes se sont développés dans l’histoire : 1. ambition 2. amitié 3. le fait de prendre des risques 4. la persévérance (ne renonçant pas) 5. pouvoir 6. honneur et dignité.
