Nguyen Nhat Anh's journal does not just discuss Quang noodles. He said everything in the sky under the pool. From food to calligraphy, from theater to movie, from home to office, from supermarket to street, from Saigon to the West...He discusses everything: From big and small, from fake goods to Hollywood uprising, from Cophaco fans to Ba Tieu fans...He also likes everything: From reading advertisements to listening to reforms on the Tien River, from watching football to watching flowers dig in paintings, then "chat"...

Funny, poignant and reflective, The Weight of a Cherry Blossom is a fable of rootlessness and belonging in the modern world.

"Ormen og krogen er langt længere nede ad åen nu. "Hvis jeg ikke snart fanger noget, kommer du aldrig med på fisketur mere," forsikrer jeg hunden. Den lader et kort øjeblik den lange tunge hænge helt ud af munden og siger: "Aaaha! Aaaha! Aaaha!" Så haler den tungen ind igen og lukker munden. Den morer sig over de mærkeligste ting, den hund. Så prøver vi forfra igen. Plump! Og så nærmer stålormen sig atter roden." I sansende, følende, smagende, filosofiske og underholdende fortællinger og betragtninger giver Poul Blak i "Den enøjede sommerfugl" sit bud på konstellationen menneske-natur.

La dernière guerre, Marguerite Duras l'a vécue tout à la fois comme femme dont le mari avait été déporté, comme résistante, mais aussi comme écrivain. Lucide, étonnée, désespérée parfois, elle a pendant ces années tenu un journal, écrit des textes que lui inspiraient tout ce qu'elle voyait, ce qu'elle vivait, les gens qu'elle rencontrait ou affrontait. Ce sont des extraits de son journal, que Marguerite Duras a réunis dans un recueil de nouvelles, "La douleur". La première d'entre elles porte le même titre. Adeline d'Hermy a choisi de la lire.

She joined the elite team who accompanied the president wherever he went, recorder and mic in hand.
