Story
"Je hais les voyages et les explorateurs", toute première phrase de l'ouvrage, affirme sans détour son rejet de l'exotisme comme porte vers le sensationnel. Il s'agit ici d'un voyage bien plus philosophique, retour sur les études de terrain qui ont formé son esprit d'ethnologue. Comment se positionner face à l'autre, face à des cultures aux structures si différentes ? Quelles sont les valeurs intrinsèques de l'Homme ?

Story
A Saint-Pétersbourg, en 1865, Raskolnikov, un jeune noble sombre et altier, renfermé mais aussi généreux, a interrompu ses études faute d'argent. Endetté auprès de sa logeuse qui lui loue une étroite mansarde, il se sent écrasé par sa pauvreté. Mais il se croit aussi appelé à un grand avenir et, dédaigneux de la loi morale, se pense fondé à commettre un crime : ce qu'il va faire bientôt - de manière crapuleuse.

Story
The Ministry for the Future is a masterpiece of the imagination, using fictional eyewitness accounts to tell the story of how climate change will affect us all. Its setting is not a desolate, post-apocalyptic world, but a future that is almost upon us - and in which we might just overcome the extraordinary challenges we face.

Story
The Communist Manifesto (1848), Marx and Engels' revolutionary summons to the working classes, is one of the most important and influential political theories ever formulated. After four years of collaboration the authors produced this incisive account of their idea of Communism, in which they envisage a society without classes, private property or a state. They argue that increasing exploitation of industrial workers will eventually lead to a revolution in which Capitalism is overthrown.

Publisher's summary
Ouvrage sans égal de l'ethnographie contemporaine, destiné à large public, Tristes Tropiques nous transporte. Au travers de la réalité quotidienne d'un jeune homme parti à la découverte de l'altérité des cultures, Claude Lévi-Strauss dépeint les émerveillements mais aussi les difficultés du voyage. Nous suivons avec passion le travail de l'ethnologue, ses réflexions et ses interrogations sur les tribus du Brésil et d'Asie auprès desquelles il vit pendant plusieurs mois, mais aussi sa mise en perspective des ressorts de notre société occidentale. Claude Lévi-Strauss nous livre les clés intellectuelles pour la compréhension du monde, des civilisations. Son voyage philosophique questionne la place de l'homme dans la nature et notre rapport à l'autre.
La succession Lévi-Strauss et les Editions Plon ont décidé d'offrir une version sonore intégrale du texte en confiant la production aux Editions Frémeaux & Associés. Enfin, le musée du Quai Branly qui n'aurait sans doute jamais existé sans la lutte contre les préjugés de Claude Lévi-Strauss, apporte aujourd'hui son soutien à cette œuvre incarnée. Amoureux de la langue, Jean-Pierre Lorit rend l'intégralité de l'œuvre accessible et fluide par une lecture pleine de sens et de rythme.
Critic reviews
""Je hais les voyages et les explorateurs". La toute première phrase de Tristes Tropiques, ouvrage sans égal de l'ethnographie contemporaine et véritable voyage philosophique, affirme d'emblée le rejet, par Claude Lévi-Strauss, de l'exotisme comme porte vers le sensationnel. Figure fondatrice de la pensée structuraliste, anthropologue et penseur, Claude Lévi-Strauss (1908-2009) est aussi sorti du strict cadre des études académiques. En 1955, le fameux Tristes tropiques l'a fait connaître et apprécier de multiples lecteurs. Dans un coffret, voici l'intégrale (lu par Jean-Pierre Lorit) d'un récit de voyage qui présente la réalité de l'homme, de son rapport à la nature et à la société."

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.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

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.

Story
The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'
