Story2
Dorothy L Sayers was a woman of contrasts. A strong Christian, she had a baby by a man she did not love - out of wedlock. Possessing a fierce intellect, she translated Dante - and also created one of the most popular fictional detectives ever, in Lord Peter Wimsey. With no new biographies on Sayers having been published for some time, Colin Duriez reassesses her, her life, her writings, her studies and her faith. Drawing on previously unpublished material, particularly her collected letters, he brings to life a fascinating woman.

"Depuis des années, je tourne autour de cet événement de ma vie. Lire dans un roman le récit d'un avortement me plonge dans un saisissement sans images ni pensées, comme si les mots se changeaient instantanément en sensation violente. De la même façon entendre par hasard "La javanaise", "J'ai la mémoire qui flanche", n'importe quelle chanson qui m'a accompagnée durant cette période, me bouleverse."

Goliarda racconta la sua detenzione a Rebibbia, scuola di vita, vera e propria università che insegna, senza le illusioni e le ipocrisie della vita ordinaria, la dura e autentica dimensione della convivenza umana. Ma in quell’universo freddo e spietato, scopre anche cosa vuol dire solidarietà, calore, amicizia, spontaneità, impossibili nel mondo di fuori dove si è meno liberi e sicuri. Intellettuale libera e anticonformista, Goliarda Sapienza ci offre, con sguardo lucido e penetrante, uno spaccato sorprendente che rovescia tutti i nostri stereotipi su una realtà sconosciuta e per questo tanto piú rivelatrice.

Known for her best-selling detective novels, Dorothy L. Sayers lived a fascinating, groundbreaking life as a novelist, feminist, Oxford scholar, and important influence on the spiritual life of C. S. Lewis. Providing a blueprint for bridge-building in contemporary, polarizing contexts, Subversive shows how Sayers used edgy, often hilarious metaphors to ignite new ways to think about Christianity, shocking people into seeing the truth of ancient doctrine in a new light.

«E noi, che cosa stiamo diventando? E io, cosa sono diventato?» si chiede Paolo Nori. E la risposta viene da una lontananza che in verità brucia distanze e porta con sé, come fosse turbine di visioni, di fatti, di sentimenti, e naturalmente di poesia, la vita di Anna Achmatova. «Vogliamo raccontare» dice Nori «la storia di Anna Achmatova, una poetessa russa nata nei pressi di Odessa nel 1889 e morta a Mosca nel 1966.

Déporté à Buchenwald, Jorge Semprun est libéré par les troupes de Patton, le 11 avril 1945. L'étudiant du lycée Henri-IV, le lauréat du concours général de philosophie, le jeune poète qui connaît déjà tous les intellectuels parisiens découvre à Buchenwald ce qui n'est pas donné à ceux qui n'ont pas connu les camps : vivre sa mort. Un temps, il va croire qu'on peut exorciser la mort par l'écriture. Mais écrire renvoie à la mort. Pour s'arracher à ce cercle vicieux, il sera aidé par une femme, bien sûr, et peut-être par un objet très prosaïque : le parapluie de Bakounine, conservé à Locarno.

René Guénon explore, derrière l’œuvre de Dante, une signification initiatique que la lecture profane ignore. Refusant toute grille « systématique », il montre que le symbolisme ne se laisse pas réduire: chaque signe ouvre sur des perspectives illimitées, et l’essentiel demeure de l’ordre de l’inexprimable. Plutôt qu’un traité clos, ce livre est un point de départ: il suggère des voies de recherche, appelle une compréhension vraie et invite à mesurer l’étroitesse de nos conceptions courantes.

The Mister tells the story of well-to-do (and well-off!) Maxim Trevelyan, who is living the high-life with good lucks, aristocratic connections, and no need to work. Things change when Maxim is charged with the responsibility of inheriting his family's wealth, estates and titles. It is not a role well suited to Maxim. In this interview, we spoke to E. L. James about setting The Mister in Albania, Fifty Shades going viral, and the music playlists that accompany her writing.

Longtemps, Murakami a couru. Dix kilomètres par jour, six jours par semaine, un marathon par an, vingt marathons en tout. De cette passion, il a tiré un livre étonnant, entre éloge de l'effort, leçon de sagesse et mémoires inattendus. Car le maître ose une comparaison surprenante : si ténacité, capacité de concentration et talent sont les qualités requises d'un romancier, la course à pied permet de cultiver la patience et la persévérance. Courir est une métaphore de l'écriture.
