Title : A Wild Herb Soup - Emilie Carles - book Summary : A miserabilist novel, a tearful tale? That was the pitfall. But the old lady is not one of those who laments or pities herself. She exudes a quiet strength, unfailing health, even an astonishing joy. In this rural world that believes only in God and authority, she professes feminism, anarchism, and pacifism. Like her grandchildren today. She accepts no fatality, no submission. And fights in the name of an ideal that nothing will undermine. " Janick Jossin, L'Express "Let no one expect from this Wild Herb Soup a pleasant collection of picturesque stories, an anthology of country traits, old herbal teas, and old moons. Emilie Carles, at the end of her days, took up her pen as one takes up a sword: to fight prejudice, to smite the powerful and the rich, to tell the clever what they think. " Bruno Frappat, Le Monde "Her book is wonderful. She doesn't try to be literary, and she's right there, straight away. Go for it."

Title : A Paper Widow - John Irving - book Summary : Two hours from New York, there is an old house on the edge of the gray sea. In the summer of 1958, Eddie, a handsome sixteen-year-old boy, discovers love there in the arms of the most beautiful woman in the world, who is also the saddest, while around them hover countless photos, graceful ghosts of his lost sons. Ruth, his little girl, wakes up in the middle of the night, and Ted, her husband, a cunning squash player and seaside Don Juan, writes children's stories, stories that scare... But the summer ends with the first flight of wild geese, and the blonde Marion takes her red Mercedes to abandon the husband she no longer loves, the young lover she dares not love, and the little girl to whom she is too afraid to become attached. After this nostalgic dawn, we find Ruth in 1990, a famous novelist and formidable squash player, but an anxious single woman, dreading marriage and motherhood. During a promotional tour in Amsterdam, a trip to the red-light district and an encounter with a pretty redheaded prostitute confront her with an adventure straight out of her childhood terrors. A Paper Widow has the burlesque and sometimes naughty verve of John Irving's best novels; it is also a nocturnal book, about the dark side of being, mourning and melancholy; but above all it is a marvelous tale, where, if sorrow has a long life, love is found and rediscovered.

Carley, a young journalist (and Spencer's sister-in-law) assigned to cover the investigation, quickly finds herself confronted with troubling questions. What if Spencer was the victim of a frame-up?
