Titre : Les nouvelles confessions - William Boyd - Livre Résumé : Quand le plus subtil des écrivains anglais du XXe siècle rencontre l'un des philosophes les plus controversés du XVIIIe siècle, cela entraîne de profondes turbulences littéraires. William Boyd, donc, au cours de ses études, découvrit Jean-Jacques Rousseau. Il se prit alors pour le névrosé et teigneux philosophe d'une passion telle qu'il en fit un roman.Son héros, John James Todd, cancre surdoué pour la musique et les chiffres, abandonne un beau jour le pensionnat pour venir déclarer sa flamme à sa tante. Premier coup de tête et premier désarroi, prélude à une longue suite de malentendus, de situations rocambolesques et de rencontres passionnantes. Plus tard, Todd, devenu cinéaste, n'a qu'une obsession : adapter pour le cinéma "Les Confessions" de Rousseau. Il y parviendra après avoir essuyé deux guerres mondiales, une vie de famille ratée, la censure du maccarthysme et finalement l'exil et le repentir. Et de s'interroger au soir de sa vie : "Mais qu'ai-je fait pour mériter ça ? "Le roman de Boyd est une version subtile et impertinente du texte de Rousseau. Les confessions d'un homme épris de liberté mais navigant comme il peut dans les tempêtes de l'Histoire. --Stellio Paris EAN : 9782020100830 Livre d'occasion petit prix pas cher Le livre correspond à la photo

Titre : Les nougats - Claude Gutman - Livre Résumé : Souvent, nous, les enfants, il y a des choses auxquelles on pense ou qu'on veut très fort mais dont on ne parle pas à nos parents. Par exemple, on ne leur dit jamais :- "Cette année, c'est décidé ! J'achète du nougat à Montélimar. Tout est prévu. J'ai un plan et des sous dans ma poche." On ne leur dit pas non plus :- "Au lieu d'une dent ordinaire, je voudrais une dent en fer. Une grosse qui brille pour mordre les derrières !" On ne leur dit pas, sinon, ils nous regarderaient de travers. Ce n'est pas comme monsieur Gutman. Lui, au moins, il nous comprend. Dans son livre, il nous laisse toute la place. Alors, on en profite. Chacun notre tour, on raconte notre histoire. On dit nos soucis, nos malheurs, nos petits bonheurs aussi. Et là, il n'y a personne pour nous interrompre par des gros : "Mais qu'est-ce que tu racontes ?" Tiens ! D'ailleurs, sur notre livre, on devrait coller l'étiquette "interdit aux parents et aux grandes personnes". On ne sait jamais, si l'envie leur prenait de venir nous embêter ?

Title: Castaways of the Holy Land - Sheri Holman - book Summary : At the end of the 15th century, Brother Felix Fabri, a Dominican monk from Ulm, embarked on a pilgrimage to the Holy Land in the company of German lords. His dearest desire was to go to Mount Sinai, where Catherine of Alexandria, the saint he had "married" by taking his vows, was buried. However, in Crete or Rhodes, where he delighted in venerating Catherine's hand or ear, they disappeared at the very moment of his arrival. Who is stealing these precious relics? This is what Brother Felix will strive to discover. An investigation that will profoundly shake the convictions and faith of this man of common sense and strong prejudices. Thanks to the journal he kept for his brothers in Ulm, we follow his long journey. He treats us to delicious reflections on the creatures that inhabit the Ocean (sirens or dryads, and Troyp, the sea monster that circles ships to pierce their sides with its long, sharp beak), on our origins (the fires of Saint John are lit to ward off flying dragons, too inclined to spread their sperm in wells and waterways...), or on the morals of his pilgrim brothers, true "tourists" of the time. However, around our brother Felix, fascinated by a mysterious couple, death prowls, until the denouement, in the arid and burning desert of Sinai. This is an unusual, gripping, witty, remarkably documented historical thriller, in the tradition of Umberto Eco and the great medieval epics. "In this debut novel, Holman keeps his readers on the edge of their seats with strange puzzles and studied suspense. His perception of eternal ironies is as unerring as his depiction of the pre-modern world is captivating. This is a very strong literary introduction."

Title : The Wedding of Claudine - Yves Viollier - book Summary : I wrote this book as one bleeds. Claudine was taken from us a few days before her eighteenth birthday. I thought it was my duty to write to remain in her wake. We were still in her light. We must not let her fade away. Her death would have been too absurd. A year after her tragic disappearance on the road, I began to write, in pain. Day after day, for a year, I kept Claudine's diary. I tried to understand the incomprehensible. I was revolted. I tried to find meaning, with my simple, coal-burner faith. I penetrated nothing of the mystery. It did not seem possible to me that Claudine was not promised to another marriage. Twenty-five years later, I still think so. EAN: 9782266108720 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo
