Philippe Torreton a passé trois nuits avec le Samusocial. Trois nuits de maraude dans Paris, aux côtés des bénévoles, des infirmiers, des travailleurs sociaux et des gens qui vivent dans la rue. De ces heures transcrites, il tire un long poème en prose qui n'a rien d'emprunté ou d'artificiel. Il raconte au contraire avec une vivacité saisissante la misère, la spirale infernale, la folie parfois, ou l'exil, mais aussi l'engagement, l'espoir, l'amitié et l'impuissance de ceux qui se battent, la colère de ne pouvoir faire plus.

When Wall Street wealth manager Steve Abramowicz fled Seattle after his daughter's swim league forced biological boys into girls' lanes, he had no idea he'd become the voice of the voiceless. Five hundred podcast episodes later, he's interviewed the people mainstream media refuses to platform: doctors who questioned the narrative, scientists who lost everything, actors blacklisted by Hollywood, FBI whistleblowers, child trafficking rescuers, and moms fighting school boards.

In 1978 Deanna met her hermit husband in Northern BC while she was working as a forestry lookout attendant. For the next thirteen years she led the life of a pioneering mother in the wilderness.

Escritos entre 1944 e 1962, situados entre o ensaio e a autobiografia, os onze relatos de As pequenas virtudes são um marco da escrita memorialística do século XX. Sem idealizações nem sentimentalismos, As pequenas virtudes é fruto de uma prosa límpida, aliada ao vigor típico dos escritores que, ao falar de coisas simples, revelam as questões humanas mais profundas. Nestes onze textos, a escritora italiana Natalia Ginzburg não faz delimitações entre as dimensões social e histórica, construindo uma obra singular e de raro afeto.

“We acquire the strength we have overcome.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson This is for the seekers, for those of you feeling the call to reach higher; to grow into the greatest version of yourself. It will take some courage to get there; to move through some uncomfortable truths and to shine a light on what is no longer serving you. It will require some faith; we are more than just our bodies and our minds. There is a God-force ready to assist you, if we are brave enough to take on the challenge.

Pilar Cernuda hace en estas páginas un recorrido por sus más de cincuenta años de profesión, en los que ha vivido experiencias que nunca imaginó; ha conocido a personajes a los que jamás pensó conocer —por estas páginas pasan, entre otros, Serrat, Massiel, Yves Montand, Geraldine Chaplin, Theodorakis, Miguel Ríos o Melina Mercouri— y sido testigo directo de situaciones insólitas y momentos que forman parte de la historia. También ha tratado a los compañeros de oficio más influyentes, a dirigentes de todos los partidos, presidentes de gobierno y, por supuesto, a los reyes.

After finishing my last book, I found myself not blocked but fatigued. The creative process had worn me down. Friends advised, “Take time off, recharge.” Easier said than done. Writing is as natural to me as breathing; to stop would be unthinkable. So, I carried this conundrum for months, letting it ferment in my dwindling supply of productive brain cells, until the answer appeared: Write a book of quotes. The words emblazoned themselves across my mind, flickering insistently until I surrendered.
