Wie viele Literatenhäuser stellt Lawrences Refugium "Clouds Hill" im südenglischen Bovington ein Abbild seiner Seele dar. Die einstige Bauernkate ist äußerst schlicht eingerichtet, aber die Bibliothek und Schallplattensammlung zeugen von dem intellektuellen Universum, das Lawrence war: Homer, Dante, Cervantes, Mozart, Beethoven und Elgar. Dann in einer Ecke rostige Fragmente von Schienen. Es sind Reliquien der Hedschasbahn von Aleppo nach Medina – Erinnerungen an seinen Guerillakrieg in der Wüste gegen die Türken. Lawrences militärische Karriere ist außergewöhnlich.

"100 Quotes by Adam Smith" is a selection of thoughts and observations from one of the finest philosophical minds of the 18th century. Smith’s views on religion, morality, and human nature are presented front and centre. However, he wasn’t short of a few witticisms, and there are plenty of one-liners worth committing to memory. A superb book for leisurely browsing, this is a welcome addition to any book collection. Born in Kirkcaldy, Adam Smith (1723–1790) became known as one of the most important philosophers and political economists of the 18th century.

The Isle of Wight: in the summers of the 1800s, Queen Victoria holidayed here. At music festivals in the summer of love, hundreds of thousands of people got stoned here. And, in the summer of 2020, Hunter and Claire escaped locked-down North London for a week's holiday here. They fell in love with its sleepy charm – and ended up buying a Grade 2-listed home in the elegant Victorian seaside resort of Ryde. "Love in Old Age" tells the story of their first year on the island. It is a journey of discovery in a forgotten corner of England.

"Apart from herpes and Lulu – everything is eventually swept away." Just one shimmering pearl of wisdom from pop-star and polymath James Maker, whose worldly observations will (like herpes) once again be on everyone’s lips thanks to his award-winning memoir, remastered with new chapters. If you hadn’t heard of rock bands Raymonde or RPLA – fronted by James in the 80s and 90s – you might be forgiven for mistaking AutoFellatio for fiction. But here fact is more fantastical than any novel. We follow our hero from Bermondsey enfant-terrible to Valencian grande dame...

L'affaire Dreyfus (1894-1906), du nom de cet officier juif alsacien accusé d'espionnage au profit de l'Allemagne, est toujours présente dans nos mémoires.

Le J'accuse... ! de Zola en offre-t-il un récit exhaustif ? Et l'écrivain a-t-il été assassiné ? Quels ont été les rôles réels des militaires Picquart et Esterhazy, du politique Clemenceau et de l'écrivain Péguy ?
