Quoi de plus banal qu'un court voyage en autocar? D'autant plus que ce trajet de quelques heures s'effectue sur une route de campagne sillonnant les Laurentides, région touristique fort appréciée et sans histoires.... Jusqu'à ce jour.... Parmi la trentaine de passagers qui montent à bord, en cette journée de canicule, personne n'aurait pu imaginer qu'ils allaient droit vers une destination imprévue: l'enfer.

Wittgenstein's Mistress is a novel unlike anything David Markson or anyone else has ever written before. It is the story of a woman who is convinced and, astonishingly, will ultimately convince the listener as well that she is the only person left on earth. Presumably she is mad. And yet so appealing is her character, and so witty and seductive her narrative voice, that we will follow her hypnotically as she unloads the intellectual baggage of a lifetime in a series of irreverent meditations on everything and everybody from Brahms to sex to Heidegger to Helen of Troy.

Twenty-four-year-old Veronika seems to have everything - youth and beauty, boyfriends and a loving family, a fulfilling job. But something is missing in her life. So, one cold November morning, she takes a handful of sleeping pills expecting never to wake up. But she does - at a mental hospital where she is told that she has only days to live.

"Un héros de notre temps" est le premier roman véritablement psychologique de la littérature russe. Sombre, romantique et désabusé, étrange et décousu, c'est un aperçu incisif de la sensibilité russe qui précède les grandes œuvres de Tourgueniev ou Dostoïevski. Un héros de notre temps est constitué de cinq récits, qui ont pour principal protagoniste Petchorine, un jeune homme désabusé. Dans le premier texte, Béla, un vieil officier, Maximitch, conte les aventures de Petchorin qui enleva Béla, la fille d'un prince tartare.

Un matin, son frère est froidement abattu dans les bureaux du gymnase d'arts martiaux mixtes qu'il dirige.

Un hombre parado ante un semáforo en rojo se queda ciego súbitamente. Es el primer caso de una «ceguera blanca» que se expande de manera fulminante. Internados en cuarentena o perdidos en la ciudad, los ciegos tendrán que enfrentarse con lo que existe de más primitivo en la naturaleza humana: la voluntad de sobrevivir a cualquier precio.

«Je suis borderline. J'ai un problème de limites. Je ne fais pas de différence entre l'extérieur et l'intérieur. C'est à cause de ma peau qui est à l'envers. C'est à cause de mes nerfs qui sont à fleur de peau. Tout le monde peut voir à l'intérieur de moi, j'ai l'impression. Je suis transparente. D'ailleurs, tellement transparente qu'il faut que je crie pour qu'on me voie.»

Internationally best-selling novelist Irvin D. Yalom explores the mindsets of two men separated by 300 years. Using his skills as a psychiatrist, he explores the inner lives of Baruch Spinoza, the Jewish 17th-century secular philosopher, and of Alfred Rosenberg, outspoken Nazi ideologue, faithful servant of Hitler, the main author of racial policy for the Third Reich, and a godless mass murderer....

Sur le sort de cette femme sans charme et sans esprit du Nord-Est brésilien, le narrateur de "L'heure de l'étoile" semble tant s'attendrir que perdre patience. Autour d'elle gravitent des avides et des ambitieux qui ne lui donneront rien. En observateur distant, l'auteur fictif s'acquitte d'une lourde tâche : faire le récit de cette vie misérable et sans amour, qui tiendrait en un souffle.

Mon caractère a été façonné par deux forces opposées ; la pression de me conformer aux normes sociales et celle d’être moi-même. Pour être franc, ces forces m’ont vraiment déchiré. Elles m’ont secoué d’un côté à l’autre. Parfois, elles m’ont poussé à remettre toute mon existence en question.

Published two weeks after Vladimir Nabokov’s seventieth birthday, Ada, or Ardor is one of his greatest masterpieces, the glorious culmination of his career as a novelist. It tells a love story troubled by incest, but it is also at once a fairy tale, epic, philosophical treatise on the nature of time, parody of the history of the novel, and erotic catalogue. Ada, or Ardor is no less than the supreme work of an imagination at white heat. This is the first American edition to include the extensive and ingeniously sardonic appendix by the author, written under the anagrammatic pseudonym Vivian Darkbloom.
