Parce que le conte peut faire reculer la mort, Bitna, étudiante coréenne sans un sou, invente des histoires pour Salomé, immobilisée par une maladie incurable. La première lutte contre la pauvreté, la seconde contre la douleur. Ensemble, elles se sauvent dans des récits quotidiens ou fabuleux, et bientôt la frontière entre réalité et imaginaire disparaît. Un roman qui souffle ses légendes urbaines sur la rivière Han, les boulevards saturés et les ruelles louches. Sous le ciel de Séoul se lève "le vent de l'envie des fleurs"...

Jean Racine é um dramaturgo e poeta francês, considerado um dos maiores escritores de tragédias do período clássico em França.

Durante una delle sue passeggiate in Provenza, Jean Giono ha incontrato una personalità indimenticabile: un pastore solitario e tranquillo, di poche parole, che provava piacere a vivere lentamente, con le pecore e il cane. Nonostante la sua semplicità e la totale solitudine nella quale viveva, quest'uomo stava compiendo una grande azione, un'impresa che avrebbe cambiato la faccia delle sua terra e la vita delle generazioni future.

Greg Stillson, candidat à la Maison Blanche, est un fou criminel, grand admirateur de Hitler et d'autres maniaques de l'extermination. Quand il sera élu, ce sera l'Apocalypse. Un seul homme le sait, John Smith, car il est doué d'un étrange pouvoir qui lui attire pas mal d'ennuis : il devine l'avenir. Il n'y a rien de réjouissant à cela. Il peut prévoir les accidents, les catastrophes, les hécatombes. On ne le croit pas, ou alors on le croit trop. John Smith n'a encore rien dit de ses prémonitions. Pourtant, le candidat à la présidence des États-Unis est un dément.

Dr. Johnson may have been correct in saying that “Rousseau was a very bad man,” but none can argue that his ideas are among the most influential in all of world history. It was Rousseau, the father of the romantic movement, who was responsible for introducing at least two modern day thoughts that pervade academia. The Confessions is Rousseau’s landmark autobiography. Both brilliant and flawed, it is nonetheless beautifully written and remains one of the most moving human documents in all of literature.

When Jean Tirole won the 2014 Nobel Prize in Economics, he suddenly found himself being stopped in the street by complete strangers and asked to comment on issues of the day, no matter how distant from his own areas of research. His transformation from academic economist to public intellectual prompted him to reflect further on the role economists and their discipline play in society. The result is Economics for the Common Good, a passionate manifesto for a world in which economics, far from being a "dismal science," is a positive force for the common good.

Rousseau's Social Contract remains, after a quarter of a millennium, one of the most controversial texts in the history of political philosophy, variously seen as a model for participatory democracy, a blueprint for totalitarianism, and several points in between. In addition to Rousseau’s magnum opus, this production includes an introduction by George Douglas Howard Cole, an English political theorist, economist, writer and historian. Also included are three discourses that Rousseau composed apart from The Social Contract.

While almost all of Marguerite Duras's novels have been translated into English, her debut The Impudent Ones (Les Impudents) has been a glaring exception - until now. Fans of Duras will be thrilled to discover the germ of her bold, vital prose and signature blend of memoir and fiction in this intense and mournful story of the Taneran family, which introduces Duras' classic themes of familial conflict, illicit romance, and scandal in the sleepy suburbs and southwest provinces of postwar France.  

Ayla, the independent heroine of the Earth's Children series, sets out from the valley on Whinney, the horse she tamed. With her is Jondalar, the tall, handsome, yellow-haired man she nursed back to health and came to love. Together they meet Mamutoi - the Mammoth Hunters - people like Ayla.

In Jean Shinoda Bolen’s bestselling, game-changing Goddesses in Everywoman, myths came to life in a whole new way that resonated with our own lives. Even fictional character Bridget Jones was reading that book. Now comes Artemis: The Indomitable Spirit in Everywoman, a groundbreaking new audiobook that explores the archetype of the activist. Indomitable means untamed, unsubdued. It is the one-in-herself quality in girls and women who will not be victims, no matter what.
