Dix ans après avoir enregistré Avec mon meilleur souvenir, le plus personnel et le plus accompli de ses récits, Françoise Sagan raconte dans Derrière l'épaule cette expérience inédite : "Le studio donnait sur une cour, style Utrillo, où un enfant et un chat se succédaient. Contrairement aux prédictions pessimistes de l'ingénieur du son, je me débrouillai fort bien, ne bégayai pas et inscrivis ma voix sur un disque, comme une professionnelle, pendant trois jours...

C'est le plus grand critique culinaire du monde, le Pape de la gastronomie, le Messie des agapes somptueuses. Demain, il va mourir. Il le sait et il n'en a cure : aux portes de la mort, il est en quête d'une saveur qui lui trotte dans le cœur, une saveur d'enfance ou d'adolescence, un mets original et merveilleux dont il pressent qu'il vaut bien que tous ses festins de gourmet accompli. Alors il se souvient. Silencieusement, parfois frénétiquement, il vogue au gré des méandres de sa mémoire gustative. Il se souvient - et il ne trouve pas. Pas encore.

When his family home in Milan is destroyed by Allied bombs, Pino joins an underground railroad helping Jews escape over the Alps, and falls for Anna, a beautiful widow six years his senior. In an attempt to protect him, Pino's parents force him to enlist as a German soldier - a move they think will keep him out of combat.

Je voulais dire à mon grand-père que je l'aimais, mais je n'y suis pas parvenu. J'ai si souvent été en retard sur les mots que j'aurais voulu dire. Je ne pourrai jamais faire marche arrière vers cette tendresse. Sauf peut-être avec l'écrit, maintenant. Je peux le lui dire, là.

Once again, the monks of St. Disibod are there to stop her, citing the biblical passages that admonish against "women teachers". Also, Abbot Kuno is aging, and it is only a matter of time before he is succeeded in the post by Prior Helenger, who wants nothing more than to see Hildegard permanently relegated to the convent's enclosure.
