Après sa Divine Comédie, voyage sonore dans la Mythologie européenne, la romancière Amélie Nothomb nous accompagne, dans une deuxième saison très personnelle, à la rencontre du Japon de son enfance, avec ses mythes, ses rites et ses cultures. Dans ce documentaire audio de 10 épisodes, enrichi en son binaural, nous explorons les mythes et spiritualités japonais aux côtés d’Amélie Nothomb. Nous découvrons, dans ses yeux, un pays vecteur de réalisations personnelles.

This collection of Japanese poetry was compiled and translated into English from an anthology known as The Collection of Myriad Leaves, and from a number of other anthologies made by imperial decree between the tenth and fifteenth centuries. This period has come to be considered the golden age of Japanese literature. These examples of Japanese poetry exhibit the most exquisite polish, allied with an avoidance of every shocking or perturbing theme; they combine the enduring luster of a precious metal with the tenuity of gold-leaf.

Presenting प्रकृति बचाओ [Save Nature] collection of stories by BookBox.

On a far ridge of a Himalayan hill station, a crumbling ruin holds devastating secrets. Spanning 70 years of India’s turbulent history, A House Called Askival, follows three generations of an American family from Partition to the present day. An estranged daughter returns for her father’s death, but can the past be healed? A legendary cookbook holds a fateful recipe, but what dark story does it hide? A winged creature arrives, but does it know the 100th name of God?

When a devoted monk meets a divine goddess, when unwavering faith collides with irresistible love, does it lead to transcendence or downfall? Love Letters from the Goddess unveils this profound dilemma through 36 soul-stirring letters, carefully selected from the Holy Monk and the Spirit Woman. Hidden in the void for a millennium, these letters now come to light, revealing the poignant and timeless romance between Saraswati, a retired Nepali Living Goddess, and Khyungpo Naljor, a Tibetan pilgrim on a quest for ultimate freedom.

Giappone. È la sera di Capodanno e Miho e Maho, ancora bambine, ricevono dalla nonna Kotoko una prima paghetta tutta per loro, accompagnata da queste parole: "Il modo in cui spenderete i soldi può decidere la vostra vita". Le due sorelle sono troppo piccole per capire, e si comportano in modo opposto: Miho li spende subito per qualcosa di futile; Maho invece compra un borsellino per custodire quelli che guadagnerà in futuro. A vent’anni di distanza, Miho ripensa a quell’episodio quando scopre che il fidanzato vorrebbe che lei smettesse di lavorare dopo il matrimonio.

Après le succès de Tant que le café est encore chaud et Le Café du temps retrouvé, cette suite nous entraîne dans un nouveau lieu, le café Dona Dona, au nord du Japon, pour d’émouvants voyages dans le temps.

Motherlands opens with a child drawn early to poetry. “In summer I write. Two lines at a time, two vying souls / running up the wall.” The collection follows this speaker-poet through a childhood in post-Maoist China and an eventual move to the United States, laying bare cultural and linguistic tensions in both historical and modern settings. He cites Chinese laborers toiling in American factories—an echo of the brutalities endured by those who constructed the Transatlantic Railroad—and speaks to anxieties around belonging, assimilation, and identity.

These 20 haikus are similar to Maggie Hess' popular other book of haiku, Breath of a Heron. The three self-portraits are studied within the haiku writing, too, as well as being evocative stand-alone artwork. Maggie Hess is known for writing simple, traditional-seeming, whimsical, nature-oriented haikus, keeping her language sparse within the confines of the poems, which adds something special.

Il est parfois plus difficile de respirer en dehors de l'eau que dans les profondeurs des vastes océans... Sur l'île de Jeju, au sud de la Corée, Hana et sa petite sœur Emi appartiennent à la communauté haenyeo, au sein de laquelle ce sont les femmes qui font vivre leur famille en pêchant en apnée. Un jour, alors qu'Hana est en mer, elle aperçoit un soldat japonais sur la plage qui se dirige vers Emi. Aux deux filles on a maintes fois répété de ne jamais se retrouver seules avec un soldat.

If Pierra Calasanz-Labrador’s debut poetry collection The Heartbreak Diaries was equivalent to an “ugly cry”, this second volume is an introspective journey, a quiet voice longing to be heard. Like stumbling upon an introvert’s secret diary, these 50 poems chronicle fervent wishes, hidden fears, and everyday acts of bravery that may sound uncannily familiar.

Yokoi Kenji retoma en este libro historias legendarias del Japón para, al final, hacer breves comentarios a manera de conclusiones sobre la vida de hoy.
