Title : The Maritime Prison - Michel Mohrt - book
Summary :
Grand Prix novel of the French Academy 1962
"Hold on!" shouted the captain, appearing at the door of the cabin where he had gone to join Lady Cecilia, and he added these words which noted with stupor the accident of which we had just been victims and whose consequences could have been serious: "We've gybed!" - "We've gybed," said Augustus. - "We've gybed," repeated the captain, and he burst into a laugh which dominated the din of the storm and with which he freed himself from his fear, defied the sea and showed his ship the confidence he had in it."

Title : Hope - André Malraux - book
Summary : "Malraux's book faithfully reflects the disarray, the promiscuities and the atrocities of a revolution; but it also expresses its conscience, its meaning, its subterranean movement. And it is because it hides nothing of the horrors and the silliness of civil war that it charges its title with a singular value. Here are the faults, here are the fools, the mercenaries, the warriors, here is the doubt that takes hold of the most resolute when, at the moment of dying, he feels that his body was beautiful; but here is this expectation, this call, this search, one does not know exactly for what, for something that erases the past, for a more intimate communion in danger, struggle, suffering, for a homeland, for a gestation, for a justification through sacrifice; - hope."

Title : The Chosen One - Thomas Mann - book
Summary : The Eiu is the story of a perverted genealogy, with bedroom secrets, hushed scandals, transgressions of all kinds, and accumulations of incest. It's enough to make your head spin, says one of the characters. Gregory is the son of princely and incestuous twins who abandoned him on the waves, in a barrel. Taken in by fishermen and raised in a monastery, at seventeen he sets out in search of his parents and arrives at the gates of a kingdom ruled by a queen. After defeating an "impudent and hairy fop" who was waging a "love war" against the sovereign, Gregory marries the latter, who is none other than his mother. The secret discovered, he leaves his kingdom and is chained to a bare rock, with no food other than the juice of the stone. After seventeen years, he resembles a porcupine, covered in lichen. It is in this state that the messengers from Rome find him, who travel the world in search of the new pope, designated by the Lamb of God. Told with a humor that transforms the edifying tale into a perverse epic, The Chosen One takes up the themes (the key to the abyss, the woman and the dragon, the final resurrection) of the Apocalypse , which Thomas Mann often read in exile... *LINDA LÊ.

Title : Bourlinguer - Blaise Cendrars - book
Summary : "Rij was a slut, a barrel-shaped woman who must have weighed around 110 or 120 kilos. I have never seen such a monument of sagging, overflowing flesh. She spent her day and night in a padded armchair, made especially for her and which she never stopped adorning, ribboning, braiding favors, knots, and gold and silver laces..." Wandering. If Blaise Cendrars did not invent this marine term, he gave it its letters of nobility. Eleven chapters named after ports to celebrate departure and openness to others, from Neapolitan childhood to the banks of the Seine. Eleven chapters to weave stories, adventures, and readings, from Elena's tragic death to an unforgettable brawl, via the bombing of Hamburg and the tribulations of a caravan in the Andes.
