Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3
Mêlé de près à une affaire criminelle dans l'atmosphère trouble du Paris de la guerre d'Algérie, Jean rouvre une enquête classée sans suite et tente de mettre au clair les circonstances qui l'ont conduit à fréquenter la bande de l'Unic Hôtel et une certaine Dannie dont il était amoureux. En recoupant ses souvenirs avec les pièces d'un dossier de la brigade des mœurs, Jean, vraisemblablement le dernier témoin de cette affaire, explore au fil de ses déambulations nocturnes cet espace entrouvert où la mémoire rejoint l'oubli.

Dans une vieille édition de Paris-Soir, celle du 31 décembre 1941, le narrateur lit, par hasard, une petite annonce dans la rubrique "D'hier à aujourd'hui". On y recherche une fugueuse âgée de quinze ans, Dora Bruder. Hier, c'est le temps du Paris occupé, de l'étoile jaune, des rafles et des internements ; aujourd'hui, ce sont les dernières années du XXe siècle, quand ce passé tragique taraude les vivants.

Un jour, deux inconnus qui prétendent avoir retrouvé le carnet d'adresse de l'écrivain Jean Daragane insistent lourdement pour le rencontrer. Daragane leur accorde un rendez-vous et le voilà embarqué malgré lui dans l'enquête que ces deux jeunes gens mènent sur un certain Guy Torstel. Si Daragane a tout oublié de Torstel, ce nom en fait ressurgir d'autres. Ceux de Jacques Perrin de Lara, de Roger Vincent, de Colette Laurent, d'Annie Astrand. Une maison aussi, habitée par de drôles de gens, à Saint-Leu-la-Forêt.

Ses lecteurs vont pouvoir ensuite descendre ce grand fleuve aux lenteurs asiatiques et suivre la romancière dans tous les méandres du delta, dans la moiteur des rizières, dans les secrets ombreux où elle a développé l'incantation répétitive et obsédante de ses livres, de ses films, de son théâtre."

Dans une France assez proche de la nôtre, un homme s'engage dans la carrière universitaire. Peu motivé par l'enseignement, il s'attend à une vie ennuyeuse mais calme, protégée des grands drames historiques. Cependant les forces en jeu dans le pays ont fissuré le système politique jusqu'à provoquer son effondrement. Cette implosion sans soubresauts, sans vraie révolution, se développe comme un mauvais rêve.

"Avec Mathilde, jamais une balle plus haute que l'autre, du travail propre et sans bavures. Ce soir est une exception. Une fantaisie. Elle aurait pu agir de plus loin, faire moins de dégâts, et ne tirer qu'une seule balle, bien sûr." Dans ce réjouissant jeu de massacre où l'on tue tous les affreux, Pierre Lemaitre joue en virtuose de sa plume caustique. Avec cette œuvre de jeunesse inédite, il fait cadeau à ses lecteurs d'un roman noir et subversif qui marque ses adieux au genre. Dialogues cinglants, portraits saisissants, scénario impitoyable : du pur Pierre Lemaitre.

Si Jed Martin, le personnage principal de ce roman, devait vous en raconter l'histoire, il commencerait peut-être par vous parler d'une panne de chauffe-eau, un certain 15 décembre. Ou de son père, architecte connu et engagé, avec qui il passa seul de nombreux réveillons de Noël. Il évoquerait certainement Olga, une très jolie Russe rencontrée au début de sa carrière, lors d'une première exposition de son travail photographique à partir de cartes routières Michelin.

Après la Libération, le couple s'installe au Maroc à Meknès, ville de garnison et de colons. Tandis qu'Amine tente de mettre en valeur un domaine constitué de terres rocailleuses et ingrates, Mathilde se sent vite étouffée par le climat rigoriste du Maroc. Seule et isolée à la ferme avec ses deux enfants, elle souffre de la méfiance qu'elle inspire en tant qu'étrangère et du manque d'argent.

Innovations rarely come from “experts.” Elon Musk was not an “electric car person” before he started Tesla. When it comes to improbable innovations, a legendary tech VC told Sebastian Mallaby, the future cannot be predicted, it can only be discovered. It is the nature of the venture-capital game that most attempts at discovery fail, but a very few succeed at such a scale that they more than make up for everything else. That extreme ratio of success and failure is the power law that drives the VC business, all of Silicon Valley, the wider tech sector, and, by extension, the world.

The late Chilean writer Roberto Bolaño has been called the García Marquez of his generation. The Savage Detectives is a hilarious and sexy, meandering and melancholy, companionable and complicated road trip through Mexico City, Barcelona, Israel, Liberia, and finally the desert of northern Mexico. It is the first of Bolaño's two giant works, with 2666, to be translated into English and is already being hailed as a masterpiece.

Publisher's summary
Patrick Modiano
La rencontre entre Denis Podalydès de la Comédie-Française et le texte de Patrick Modiano s'écoute comme une évidence. Fluide, hypnotique, sensible, la voix du comédien nous happe dans les volutes du souvenir, le clair-obscur des confidences, la ligne de fuite du temps.
L'écoute en classe de ce livre audio est autorisée par l'éditeur.

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,367
The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

When the call came it seemed like the answer to my prayers. My career as a voice actor had been over for months and me and my little girl Scarlet were living back at my mum’s place. I felt like a failure professionally—and with Scarlet having problems at school, as a parent as well. So, when I was asked to narrate a new book by disappeared novelist Philippa Roberts I jumped at the chance, even if it meant leaving Scarlet with my ex, Hugo, for a few weeks. Hugo, with his perfect new home and his perfect new girlfriend Saskia. But this isn’t a dream come true. It’s a nightmare.
