Cette "Traversée des temps" affronte un prodigieux défi : raconter l'histoire de l'humanité sous la forme d'un roman. Faire défiler les siècles, en embrasser les âges, en sentir les bouleversements, comme si Yuval Noah Harari avait croisé Alexandre Dumas. Depuis plus de trente ans, ce projet titanesque occupe Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 64
Entre Madame Rosa et Momo, c'est un amour maternel qui ne passerait pas les liens du sang, c'est l'amitié entre les peuples juif et arabe, c'est le poids de l'Histoire allégé par l'appétit de vivre. Le roman se passe à Belleville, vingtième arrondissement de Paris, sixième étage sans ascenseur. Momo a dix ans, peut-être quatorze en réalité. Cela fait beaucoup de chiffres pour un môme qui réinvente le dictionnaire et a le sens de la maxime : "Je pense que pour vivre, il faut s'y prendre très jeune, parce qu'après on perd toute sa valeur et personne ne vous fera de cadeaux."

Après "La nuit de feu", Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt poursuit son exploration des mystères spirituels dans un roman troublant, entre suspense et philosophie. Tout commence par un attentat à la sortie d'une messe. Le narrateur était là. Il a tout vu. Et davantage encore. Il possède un don unique : voir à travers les visages et percevoir autour de chacun les êtres minuscules - souvenirs, anges ou démons - qui le motivent ou le hantent. Est-ce un fou ? Un sage qui déchiffre la folie des autres ?

À vingt-huit ans, Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt entreprend une randonnée dans le grand sud algérien. Au cours de l'expédition, il perd de vue ses compagnons et s'égare dans l'immensité du Hoggar. Sans eau ni vivres durant la nuit glaciale du désert, il n'éprouve nulle peur mais sent au contraire se soulever en lui une force brûlante. Poussière d'étoiles dans l'infini, le philosophe rationaliste voit s'ébranler toutes ses certitudes. Un sentiment de paix, de bonheur, d'éternité l'envahit. Ce feu, pourquoi ne pas le nommer Dieu ?

En 2018, Diégane Latyr Faye, jeune écrivain sénégalais, découvre à Paris un livre mythique, paru en 1938 : Le Labyrinthe de l'inhumain. On a perdu la trace de son auteur, qualifié en son temps de "Rimbaud nègre", depuis le scandale que déclencha la parution de son texte. Diégane s'engage alors, fasciné, sur la piste du mystérieux T.C. Elimane, où il affronte les grandes tragédies que sont le colonialisme ou la Shoah. Du Sénégal à la France en passant par l'Argentine, quelle vérité l'attend au centre de ce labyrinthe ?

"Il ne faut pas sous-estimer la rage de survivre." Sous la forme d'un conte, Amélie Nothomb raconte la vie de Patrick, son père, doux enfant angélique qui, jeune adulte, devra se confronter à la mort. Un magnifique hommage à la figure paternelle mais aussi à un héros de l'ombre, diplomate à la carrière hors norme. Avec ce 30e roman, Amélie Nothomb signe un de ses textes les plus personnels, qu'elle a choisi de confier à Françoise Gillard. Une lecture toute en douceur et sensibilité.

Automne 1830, dans un Paris fiévreux encore sous le choc des Journées révolutionnaires de juillet, le gouvernement de Louis-Philippe, nouveau roi des Français, tente de juguler une opposition divisée mais virulente. Valentin Verne, jeune inspecteur du service des mœurs, est muté à la brigade de Sûreté fondée quelques années plus tôt par le fameux Vidocq. Il doit élucider une série de morts étranges susceptible de déstabiliser le régime. Car la science qui progresse, mêlée à l'ésotérisme alors en vogue, inspire un nouveau type de criminalité.

Publisher's summary
Le héros miraculeux d'Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt poursuit sa traversée sur le fleuve du temps. Après le Néolithique, le voici plongé dans une nouvelle enquête au cœur de l'Orient ancien...
Noam cherche fougueusement celle qu'il aime, enlevée dans d'étranges conditions. Flanqué de son chien, il découvre un monde en pleine mutation, la Mésopotamie, autrement appelée le Pays des Eaux Douces, où les hommes viennent d'inventer les villes, l'écriture, l'astronomie.
À Babel, cité bruyante et colorée, belle de jour comme de nuit, il affronte le tyran Nemrod. Celui-ci, en recourant à l'esclavage, construit la plus haute tour jamais conçue qui constituera la porte du ciel et donnera accès aux Dieux.
Ruses, manigances, chausse-trapes. Dans un chassé-croisé d'intrigues, Noam le guérisseur s'introduit dans tous les milieux et fait d'étonnantes rencontres : Maël l'enfant poète, le mystérieux Gawan appelé le Magicien, la reine Kubaba, étourdissante d'intelligence et d'espièglerie, Abraham, chef des nomades hébreux, lui refuse la nouvelle civilisation.
Que choisira Noam ? Sacrifiera-t-il ses inclinations profondes pour se consacrer à la lutte contre les injustices ?
Dans ce deuxième tome de La Traversée des Temps, Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt dépoussière, avec une érudition joyeuse, cette époque légendée par la Bible. Grâce à son style visionnaire et guidé par les derniers travaux des assyriologues, il restitue la complexe et brillante Mésopotamie que nous connaissons bien mal, à laquelle nous devons tant.

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.

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.

Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson. Before they were household names, these budding legends called Sue’s Nashville apartment—lovingly dubbed the “Boar’s Nest”—home. Sue’s place was an intimate staging ground where a new breed of singer-songwriters—wounded souls, wayward upstarts—would spur each other on to tap into something bigger, realer.

Winner of an Obie and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, and directed by Tony nominee Leigh Silverman, Yellow Face is as timely as ever, wrestling with issues of cultural appropriation, complicity, and artistic freedom. It’s brought to life in this audio-only revival by a stunning all-star cast (many playing themselves) led by Daniel Dae Kim.

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.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.
