David Mitchell’s 2014 best seller Thinking About It Only Makes It Worse must really have made people think - because everything’s got worse. We’ve gone from UKIP surge to Brexit shambles, from horsemeat in lasagne to Donald Trump in the White House, from Woolworths going under to all the other shops going under. It’s probably socially irresponsible even to try to cheer up.

Benedict Cumberbatch and Louise Brealey read a love story in letters, played out against the backdrop of the Second World War. 'Can you feel, as you read these words, that I am thinking of you now; aglow, alive, alert at the thought that you are in the same world, and by some strange chance loving me.' A small blue box opened in 2008 revealed a wartime world of love, longing and frustration. Inside were bundles and bundles of letters written neatly on thin blue airmail paper or headed army notepaper.

A collection of Jackson's letters from prison, Soledad Brother is an outspoken condemnation of the racism of white America and a powerful appraisal of the prison system that failed to break his spirit but eventually took his life. Jackson's letters make palpable the intense feelings of anger and rebellion that filled Black men in America's prisons in the 1960s. But even removed from the social and political firestorms of the 1960s, Jackson's story still resonates for its portrait of a man taking a stand even while locked down.

Pour que l'humanité demeure. Lorsque nous entendons ces deux poèmes pour la première fois, ils résonnent avec les périodes sombres de l'espèce humaine. Ils font leur chemin dans nos corps, comme un cri pour l'humanité, venu de Palestine par la voix de Hanine Amine et de Mustapha Benfodil.

Je vais en ruines » une voix de gardien dans un cimetière à Gaza, une envie de mourir dans un lit, pour rien, ni pour une cause, ni pour quelqu'un, une pensée de goutte d'eau. Ce qui relie ces poèmes, c'est la présence entremêlée de la vie et la mort.
