Title : The Barber of Seville - Beaumarchais - book Summary "An old man in love claims to marry his ward tomorrow; a more skillful young lover anticipates him, and that very day makes her his wife, under the nose and in the house of the guardian. This is the basis, from which one could have made, with equal success, a tragedy, a comedy, a drama, an opera, et cetera ." This is how Beaumarchais himself presented The Barber of Seville , which in 1775 quickly triumphed and then enjoyed lasting success: Marie-Antoinette herself played the role of Rosina in 1785; two opera librettos were taken from it for Paesiello and Rossini. This is because verbal fantasy and dramatic power offer the spectator a play whose action remains suspended on a fragile link - a word or a silence that can end everything or cause everything to fail - and this is the model for comedy in the two centuries to come.

Title : Boarding - Christian Garcin - book Summary This is the story of Thomas, frightened by the chaos of the world, and whom the women he has loved have never managed to calm. One day, quite like all the others, he decides to leave. He then leaves Marie, with whom he lives intermittently. But this time, Thomas wants to try to find meaning in this chaos. To do this, he will need to travel through five countries, the memory of forgotten friends, the evening breeze in his hair, the real or imagined presence of former mistresses, a bartender who translates poetry, a few songs, a fair amount of alcohol, a train named "Franz Kafka," a café in the shadow of two towers, glimpses of ghosts, and dreams of murders, rats, caimans, wolf-men, unmade beds, and a few guardian figures. The polyphonic narrative alternates Thomas's wanderings with his own monologues and chapters in which the women of his past intervene. The lively language and the sharp criticism of our times give this fragmented portrait its funny and acid colors. EAN : 9782070320370 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo

Title : Avenue of the Giants - Marc Dugain - book Summary Al Kenner would be an ordinary teenager if he weren't nearly 7 feet tall and had an IQ higher than Einstein's. His life is turned upside down by chance on the day of John Fitzgerald Kennedy's assassination. He will never be the same again. From now on, he begins a fight against his evil thoughts. An uncompromising observer of an era beyond his control, he wages a desperate battle alone against the evil within him. Inspired by a real character, Avenue of Giants, the story of the inner journey of an extraordinary killer, is also a hymn to the road, to wide open spaces, to hippie movements, in this American society of the 1960s in full upheaval, where pacifism is an illusion in the ruins of the Vietnam War.
