Jean-Luc Barré saisit toute la complexité de l’homme du 18 Juin. Il révèle un de Gaulle guidé précocement par une vision, des principes et des convictions profondes, bien loin du seul pragmatisme qu’on lui a prêté. Dès les années 30, il pressent la fin du système colonial, imagine les institutions de la Ve République en 1941 ; prend conscience des limites du nationalisme et, réputé de droite, est un contempteur souvent féroce des valeurs bourgeoises et du monde de l’argent.

Having witnessed her own mother’s struggles with mental ill-health, Rachel embarked on studies that would help her understand and share the simple steps that we can all take to better our own mental well-being. In stark contrast to the relentless effort and productivity of the multi-step optimization movement, Rachel offers a refreshing alternative.

Through a stellar cast of politicians, diplomats, spies and soldiers, including T. E. Lawrence, Winston Churchill and Charles de Gaulle, A Line in the Sand vividly tells the story of the short but crucial era when Britain and France ruled the Middle East. It explains exactly how the old antagonism between these two powers inflamed the more familiar modern rivalry between the Arabs and the Jews and ultimately led to war between the British and the French in 1941 and between the Arabs and the Jews in 1948.

"Je n'aime pas beaucoup les lettres, ni en recevoir ni en envoyer. Sauf de toi et à toi - et quelques autres. C'est ce qu'on doit appeler l'amitié." Jean d'Ormesson déploie dans l'art épistolaire autant de brio et de virtuosité que de talents de stratège et de séducteur. Il laisse libre cours, dans cette version la moins "autorisée" de son autobiographie, à son franc-parler, sa malice, son goût de l'ironie et de la facétie.

There are few characters in literature more iconic than J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan, the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up.

Now, actress Lily Collins (The Blind Side, The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones) brings new, youthful energy to Peter's magical adventures.

At the heart of each of these great classic stories is an adoptee with an indomitable spirit who becomes the heroine (or hero) of her own life.

As soon as she graduated from high school, Pamela Des Barres headed for the Sunset Strip, where she knocked on rock stars' backstage doors and immersed herself in the drugs, danger, and ecstasy of the freewheeling 1960s.
