Title : Eve - Marek HALTER - book Summary : Eve's eyes ran over the faces facing her. –; But yes, of course! You came to this courtyard for this, poor people of Enoch. Eden, Eden! The garden of Adam and Eve. To know everything about this garden of sin, as our son Seth calls it. You came to question me! And you are right. She straightened up, offering us her very particular, captivating smile. That smile that I miss so much today. –; It is time for this to be said. The announcement of the Flood unleashes terror among men. They want to understand. What is this original sin for which they are being punished? What really happened in the Garden of Eden?

Title : Dancing - Hugo Marchand - book Summary : Hugo Marchand woke up one morning with a dream. He was nine years old. This virtuoso, one of the new generation of stars at the Paris Opera, clung to this dream of dance. Four years after entering the Nantes Conservatory, having won a gold medal at thirteen, he was admitted to the Paris Opera Ballet School. Despite his atypical profile, Hugo Marchand joined the Paris Opera's corps de ballet at seventeen. He climbed the ranks, competing against others, as well as himself, in international competitions, and reached the ultimate rank of principal dancer in March 2017. By sharing his apprenticeship, Hugo Marchand takes a look at dance as a school of acceptance. That of the immensity of the work required to make a dream come true. From the quest for excellence to the shaping of self-confidence to achieve it. The tug-of-war between doubt and determination. From solitude to overexposure, from the possibility of friendship despite competition. The perpetual confrontation with the mirror, a reflection of imperfections to be overcome. The experience of a metamorphosis. EAN: 9782081445581 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo

Title : If we loved each other? Short stories - Jean Vautrin - book Summary : Keep the trunk, throw away the branches! Obeying this single watchword, to resist the viciousness of the times that is going crazy and to make up for the dearth of souls, I scraped these ten short stories to the bone. In my head, they hummed from one continent to another the sad and hilarious song of people of all skin types, of all faiths and of all countries - guys, women or kids - agitated by the worries of their personal itches, by the turpitudes of the moment, by unemployment, by childhood, obesity, alcoholism, war, the dramas of married life, or quite simply tormented by a strong desire to fuck. I kept the tempo of the characters, I preserved the rhythm of their inner madness. I wanted them to swing and sway to the rhythm of their obsessions. They were, so to speak, greedy for my energy. No doubt because they burst into the imagination of a writer at a moment in the winter of his existence when the inability to love like a young man, his roaring desire to bite into life again, and the approach of death sharpened the acuity of his gaze. In a word, I awakened what is still stirring within me. If we loved each other? EAN: 9782213612287 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo

Title : Public - Antoine Vauchez - book Summary : After three decades in which we thought we could do without them, everything indicates that we need the public's words more than ever. Faced with the risks of a State being diverted from its public framework, they are the key words of social and political mobilizations (...) and the best thermometer of our collective life and our democracies." A. Vauchez At the risk of an unprecedented crisis of confidence among citizens in the State, whose "public" legitimacy they are now questioning, that is to say, the capacity, or even the will, to act as a relay for collective interests and to protect citizens. The general state of unpreparedness in which the State found itself at the start of the pandemic will have served as a revelation here; shedding a harsh light on the actions of previous governments which had followed a policy of cost reduction and managerial efficiency at the risk of depriving hospital services of the necessary masks and hospital beds. Since the government no longer appears to be acting as a "public authority", nothing seems to justify the state exception which confers on this political organization a derogatory status and exorbitant powers. It is this tension that the Yellow Vest movement has revealed, marked both by high expectations of the State in terms of public services (in terms of quality and equality of access to hospitals, public transport, etc.), and an unprecedented distrust of governments held responsible for the State's failure to keep its "public" promises. This crisis of confidence could not have come at a worse time, given that we collectively need a State and a European Union capable of leading, on behalf of all, the ecological conversion of our societies and economies, and at a time when we must face the profound health, but also economic and social, consequences of the Covid pandemic. A way of saying, in short, that reflection on the "public" and the links it maintains with the State is today a prerequisite for all our discussions on changing the direction of public policies. New democratic theories sometimes forget this, busy as they are with bringing out new mobilizing horizons - whether it be the ecological transition or new forms of participatory democracy. But, without reflecting on what the State has become over the last three decades, nor on the chains of dependency in which its action is now inscribed, they expose themselves to the gap by acting as if the State were this simple "lever" available and mobilizable provided that we are willing to give it the desired political meaning. But there is precisely reason to doubt this. This is why we must pick up the thread of the "public" and put back on the table a notion that we had lazily abandoned like an old relic. We must take stock of the landslides that have occurred over the past thirty years and have weakened the public foundations of the State, describe their political and democratic effects, and explore the possible paths of a new public spirit of government.
