Which is exactly what the crew of the Heart of Gold plan to do. There’s just the small matter of escaping the Vogons, avoiding being taken to the most totally evil world in the Galaxy and teaching a space ship how to make a proper cup of tea. And did anyone actually make a reservation?

Publié en 1830, Le Rouge et le Noir de Stendhal est un roman historique et psychologique qui dépeint l’ascension sociale et les ambitions de Julien Sorel, un jeune homme ambitieux issu d'une famille modeste. À travers ses tentatives pour gravir les échelons de la société, il se trouve souvent dans les intrigues au milieu de personnes influentes. Satire mordante de la société française du XIXe siècle, l'œuvre s'attaque aux hypocrisies de l'Église et des aristocraties, tout en constatant la folie des actions du protagoniste.

‘I was spotty, wore an anorak, had biro-engraved flared blue jeans with “purple” and “Sabbath” written on the thighs, and rode an ear-splittingly uncool moped. Oh yes, and I wanted to be a drummer…’ Bruce Dickinson – Iron Maiden’s legendary front man – is one of the world’s...

Le timbre légèrement éraillé de Stéphane Ronchewski vous plonge dans un récit haletant et plein d'humour. Il aura suffi d'une seule mauvaise, très mauvaise idée. Rien de plus. Un 31 décembre, dans une petite ville suédoise, un individu entre dans une banque pour la braquer, ressort bredouille, et fait malencontreusement irruption dans un appartement pendant une visite groupée. Ce qui est évidemment une très mauvaise idée, puisque le braquage se transforme alors en prise d'otage.

Viola Bowen has the chance of a lifetime: to design a video game based on her all-time favorite book series. The only problem? Her co-lead is Jesse F-ing Andrews, a.k.a. her arch-nemesis. Jesse has made it abundantly clear over the years that he wants nothing to do with her–and Viola has no idea why. When their bosses insist a wintery retreat is the perfect team-building exercise, Viola can’t think of anything worse. Being freezing cold in a remote mountain lodge knowing Jesse is right next door? No, thank you.

Pour Guillaume Meurice, ardent défenseur du 10/20, du « peut mieux faire », du « bof bof », la médiocrité est non seulement un mode de vie, mais aussi un formidable facteur d'émancipation. Elle autorise l'action sans la pression du résultat, pour le simple plaisir de se mettre en mouvement, pour la beauté du geste. Il faut la revendiquer en tant que résistance politique, car elle porte en elle le refus de la hiérarchie, de la compétition et du catéchisme capitaliste.

Alan returns to podcasting, offering his unique perspective on life’s big questions, the hot-button issues of the day, his professional successes and the most intimate details of his personal life in a series he is already calling ‘seminal’. The second series will come partly from the oasthouse—in order to satisfy people who'd rather he didn’t mess with the format—and partly from other locations—to appeal to those who found the original format a bit limiting.
