Summary :
Hello. I don't want to boast, but if male cowardice, the small world of French television, and North America interest you, you should like this novel.

Title : The Bookseller of Kabul - Asne Seierstad - book
Summary :
Asne Seierstad lived through the spring following the defeat of the Taliban at Sultan Khan's, a bookseller in Kabul. In this vivid and always respectful account, she shares with us the daily lives of the wives, children, brothers, and sisters of a family whose destiny is rich with emotion and whose undisputed leader is Sultan, the book lover. "When the communists arrived," he says, "they burned all my books. Then there were the mujahideen, too busy fighting among themselves to worry about me, but once the Taliban regime was installed, my books were once again condemned to the stake." Through this gripping chronicle, we discover a multifaceted Afghanistan, a country in ruins and in full renaissance where a people timidly try to free themselves from the past in the hope of a better life.
Asne Seierstad recounts in detail the daily life of this Kabul family. A fascinating account of a woman who has sympathy for the Khans and for Afghanistan, but whose Nordic ßegma is severely tested by an often unbearable reality that humiliates and destroys. Bernard Pivot, The Sunday Journal.

Title : Diary of a Happiness Tourist - Jonathan Lehmann - book
Summary :
A repentant golden boy's journey to India in search of wisdom
A corporate lawyer in New York City, a fan of parties and drugs, Jonathan drops everything overnight to seek happiness. For three years, he meets thinkers and spiritual masters around the world, and discovers meditation, a practice that will transform his life.

A journey of initiation and spiritual chronicle, this irresistible book challenges literary genres as much as it challenges consciences. In an uninhibited, wildly funny style, Jonathan Lehmann shares with us the richness of the teachings he has received and which nourish, every day, his journey towards happiness.
A reading that will transform you.

Title : Tutankhamun or the Birth of the Gods - Volume 1 The Birth of the Gods - Dimitri Merejkovski - book
Summary : The country is experiencing an aesthetic, literary, artistic, and scientific revolution comparable to the Italian Renaissance. Gods and humans rub shoulders naturally. Pharaohs and lepers see their lives punctuated by the blinking eyelashes of divinities that are both unreal and present. But revolt is brewing. Already. Akhenaten senses the one God. Merejkovski takes us to the heart of the pharaonic palaces and the maze of starving hovels; we witness the drama of Akhenaten's daughters and the paralyzing fears of the young Tutankhamun, who is still Tutankhamen; we penetrate the dark crypts of the living dead Egyptian priests, participate in the dream fishing on the eternal Nile and the murderous palace intrigues; we follow the beautiful Dio, a virgin Cretan dancer, priestess, and deicide. As always with Merezhkovsky, impressive historical erudition is put to the service of a novelistic effervescence worthy of the greatest. Populated by young and fiery characters, Tutankhamun is the novel of the world's youth.
