The author hurls our protagonists with an impatient burst of the accelerator from the top of the Queensborough Bridge in a convertible... "It's a naturalistic story, like, basically, all good novels. Like those of Fitzgerald. I wonder if, in this young girl from New York high society marrying a parking attendant by provocation, it is not the Fitzgeraldian motif, the feeling arising from the social, which made Capote reject her. Until then, in him, and again in The Grass Harp, the social has no importance relative to the feeling, a madwoman from the southern home who rambles with a genius more comparable to that of Tennessee Williams. And then, in Fitzgerald, the women are intelligent, or wicked, or destructive, but determined, while the men are timid, or cheats, in any case cracked; the opposite of Capote. » Charles Dantzig EAN: 9782246703013 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo

Title : The Last of the Camondos - Pierre Assouline - book Summary : Coming from an illustrious and extremely wealthy family of Levantine bankers who settled in France at the end of the Second Empire, Count Moïse de Camondo (1860-1935) was a man of a milieu, that of the Parisian Jewish aristocracy, where the Rothschilds and the Pereires, the Foulds and the Cahens of Antwerp rubbed shoulders, a whole society escaped from the pages of Proust who found themselves in the hunts, the clubs and the boards of directors, competing in the magnificence of their castles, mansions and collections.

Title : Where are we going, Dad? - Jean-Louis Fournier - book Summary : Dear Mathieu, dear Thomas, When you were little, I was sometimes tempted, at Christmas, to give you a book, a Tintin book for example. We could have talked about it together afterward. I know Tintin well; I've read them all several times. I never did. It was no use, you didn't know how to read. You'll never know how to read. Until the end, your Christmas presents will be blocks or little cars... Until this day, I have never spoken about my two boys. Why? Was I ashamed? Afraid people would feel sorry for me? It was all a bit mixed up. I think, above all, it was to escape the terrible question: "What are they doing?" Now that time is running out, the end of the world is near, and I am becoming more and more biodegradable, I have decided to write them a book. So that they are not forgotten, so that all that remains of them is not just a photo on a disability card. Perhaps to express my remorse. I was not a very good father. Often, I could not stand them. With them, you had to have the patience of an angel, and I am not an angel. When we talk about children with disabilities, we adopt an air of circumstance, like when we talk about a catastrophe. For once, I would like to try to talk about them with a smile. They made me laugh with their silliness, and not always unintentionally. Thanks to them, I had advantages over parents of normal children. I didn't have to worry about their studies or career paths. We didn't have to hesitate between science and literature. We didn't have to worry about what they would do later; we quickly knew it would be: nothing. And most importantly, for many years I benefited from a free car sticker. Thanks to them, I was able to drive big American cars. Jean-Louis Fournier EAN: 9782234061170 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo

Title : Point Nemo Island - Jean-Marie Blas de Roblès - book Summary : A total, whirlwind, conquering adventure novel, a true machinery of the imagination where all the codes of romance and popular literature intertwine and collide, between the historical past and projection into the future, our programmed obsessions and our dreams of irrepressible escapes. Martial Canterel, a wealthy opium addict, allows his reconstruction of the famous Battle of Gaugamela to be interrupted by his old friend Holmes (John Shylock...). A fabulous diamond, the Anankè, has been stolen from Lady MacRae, while three right feet wearing Anankè sneakers washed up on the Scottish coast, very close to her castle... So here are Holmes, his butler and the aristocratic dandy, soon flanked by Lady MacRae and her daughter Verity, swept away - to begin with - on the Trans-Siberian in pursuit of the elusive Noh Straddle. Through a jubilant mise en abyme, this bouncy plot is set in the vagaries of a cigar factory in the Périgord Noir where, as in the Caribbean, the tradition of reading aloud the adventures of Jean Valjean or Monte Cristo is perpetuated. Soon taken over by Monsieur Wang, a high-tech voyeur and founder of B@bil Books, an e-reader assembly plant... With abrasive irony, this tsunami-novel sweeps away all the usual realistic constructions and opens extraordinary horizons of fiction. This wild novelistic escapade is also the most piquant reflection on literary art, coupled with a radical critique of ideologies and anonymous, sprawling governance, which alienates us even in our intimacy. Born in 1954 in Sidi-Bel-Abbès, he is the author, published by Zulma, of the monumental Là où les tigres sont chez eux (Fnac Novel Prize, Giono Prize and Médicis Prize 2008), of La Montagne de minuit and of the collection of short stories La Mémoire de riz.
