Title : Thoughts - Blaise Pascal - book Summary : This edition of the Pensées aims to be as faithful as possible to Pascal's intentions, in particular by establishing the text, entirely reread from the manuscript, and by the notes. These present, by quoting them in extenso, which is an original feature of this edition, the entirety of the readings on which Pascal's reflection is based. The Pensées are not a posthumous book, they are the papers of a dead man, of a man who knows and who believes at the moment when death interrupts the Apology of the Christian religion. To say what this man was, such is the meaning of Michel Le Guern's edition which was crowned by the Critical Edition Prize.

Title : Pedro Páramo - Juan Rulfo - book Summary : It was first read as a "rural" and "peasant" novel, or even as an example of the best "indigenous" literature. In the sixties and seventies, it became a great "Mexican" novel, and then "Latin American." Today, it is said that Pedro Páramo is, quite simply, one of the greatest works of the 20th century, a contemporary classic that critics often compare to Kafka's The Castle and Faulkner's The Sound and the Fury. And for good reason: no one comes out of reading Pedro Páramo unscathed. Like Kafka and Faulkner, Rulfo has managed to stage a fascinating, timeless story of rare beauty: the quest for the father that leads Juan Preciado to Cómala and to meet his destiny, a dizzying journey narrated by a chorus of unusual characters who give us a voice deep in Mexico, beyond the boundaries between memory and oblivion, past and present, the dead and the living. Fifty years after its publication, here at last, according to the original manuscript, is Juan Rulfo's great novel as the author dreamed and conceived it.

Title : Paulette and Roger - Daniel Picouly - book Summary : In November 1943, the narrator was parachuted into occupied France, near Vauzelles, in the Morvan region. These circumstances are unusual: he looks twelve or thirteen years old, but in reality, he will not be born for another five years! Who hasn't dreamed of knowing what happened before him, and what love story he came from? The magic of the novel allows the author of L'Enfant papillon (Prix Renaudot 1999) to realize this dream. He will attend the wedding of Paulette, a widow with nine children, and Roger, a Martinican from Tarbes, seven years his junior. He will tremble for this "P'pa" thrown into the adventure of the Resistance. And this boy in short pants will show us the Occupation and the war as we have never seen them before...

Title : Thoughts, Maxims and Anecdotes - Sacha Guitry - book Summary : RESETTING July 24, 1957 - 2007 - 50th anniversary of the disappearance of Sacha Guitry Son of Lucien Guitry, Sacha Guitry knew how to make a name for himself. Actor, playwright, novelist, filmmaker, he places himself in the lineage of our best moralists, from La Rochefoucauld to Chamfort. His humor is acid and tender, insightful and destructive. His favorite target was women. Let us listen to him speak brilliantly: "She gave herself to me, and she got me!" "When you lie to a woman, you feel like you're getting paid back!" He sometimes borders on cynicism ("You have women in your arms, then one day on your arms, and soon on your back"), but he redeems himself with an absolute passion for women. "Sacha's" sarcasm weighed heavily ("The little I know, I owe it to my ignorance") but his jokes were light ("When a woman I like asks me on the phone, I quickly comb my hair before going there"), a subtle mixture always accompanied by a slightly disillusioned, but not without tenderness, smile.
