L'économie est une mythologie qui désenchante le monde : plus que jamais "lugubre", elle pollue le débat public de ses fausses certitudes et empoisonne l'esprit démocratique.

Nos mythologies économiques sont des mystifications politiques.

The Strange Death of Europe is a highly personal account of a continent and culture caught in the act of suicide.

Young examines the key strategies that postcolonial thought has developed to engage with the impact of sometimes centuries of Western political and cultural domination.

Eddie Huang is the 30-year-old proprietor of Baohaus - the hot East Village hangout where foodies, stoners, and students come to stuff their faces with delicious Taiwanese street food late into the night - and one of the food world’s brightest and most controversial young stars.

Funny, raw, and moving, and told in an irrepressibly alive and original voice, Fresh Off the Boat recasts the immigrant’s story for the 21st century.

Throughout, Rushdie shares his personal encounters, on the page and in person, with storytellers from Shakespeare and Cervantes to Samuel Beckett, Eudora Welty, and Toni Morrison, and revels in the creative lines that can join art and life.
