Story
This is how Emmanuel Carrère, the magnetic journalist, novelist, filmmaker, and chameleon, describes his subject: "Limonov is not a fictional character. There. I know him. He has been a young punk in Ukraine, the idol of the Soviet underground; a bum, then a multimillionaire's butler in Manhattan; a fashionable writer in Paris; a lost soldier in the Balkans; and now, in the fantastic shambles of postcommunism, the elderly but charismatic leader of a party of young desperadoes."

C'est l'histoire d'un livre sur le yoga et la dépression. La méditation et le terrorisme. L'aspiration à l'unité et le trouble bipolaire. Des choses qui n'ont pas l'air d'aller ensemble, et pourtant : elles vont ensemble.

Story
On 13 November 2015, nine attackers wearing suicide bombs killed 130 people and left hundreds wounded at sites in and around Paris in the deadliest attack on French soil since the Second World War. V13 was the code name for the much-awaited trial of these attacks. In V13, Emmanuel Carrère follows this landmark trial from its first day to its last, taking us behind the scenes to the lawyers, survivors, family members and the defendants. He assembles, in painstaking and subtle detail, a human portrait of the crime – a study of good and evil, and the philosophical journey through the borderlands.

"Limonov n'est pas un personnage de fiction. Il existe. Je le connais. Il a été voyou en Ukraine ; l'idole de l'underground soviétique sous Brejnev ; clochard, puis valet de chambre d'un milliardaire à Manhattan ; écrivain branché à Paris ; soldat perdu dans les guerres des Balkans ; et maintenant, dans l'immense bordel de l'après-communisme en Russie, vieux chef charismatique d'un parti de jeunes desperados. Lui-même se voit comme un héros, on peut le considérer comme un salaud : je suspends pour ma part mon jugement.

Story
Gripped by the tale of a Messiah whose blood we drink and body we eat, the genre-defying author Emmanuel Carrère revisits the story of the early Church in his latest work. With an idiosyncratic and at times iconoclastic take on the charms and foibles of the Church fathers, Carrère ferries listeners through his "doors" into the biblical narrative. Once inside, he follows the ragtag group of early Christians through the tumultuous days of the faith's founding.

Story
Un relato escalofriante, una historia real que nos sume en el estupor, que es un viaje al corazón del horror, un audiolibro excepcional que ha sido comparado con "A sangre fría" de Truman Capote. El 9 de enero de 1993, Jean-Claude Romand mató a su mujer, sus hijos, sus padres e intentó, sin éxito, darse muerte. La investigación reveló que no era médico, tal como pretendía y, cosa aún más difícil de creer, tampoco era otra cosa. Mentía desde los dieciocho años. A punto de verse descubierto, prefirió suprimir a aquellos cuya mirada no hubiera podido soportar.

V13: viernes 13 de noviembre de 2015. En tres puntos diferentes de París se producen atentados yihadistas. El más grave es el de la sala Bataclan, donde están actuando los Eagles of Death Metal. El resultado de los ataques en el corazón de Francia es de ciento treinta muertos y más de cuatrocientos heridos. Años después, durante nueve meses –entre septiembre de 2021 y junio de 2022–, se celebra el juicio en el Palacio de Justicia de la capital. Hay catorce acusados: el principal es el único superviviente de entre los terroristas de Estado Islámico que participaron en la masacre.

Story
Emmanuel Carrère is a renowned writer. After decades of emotional upheaval, he has begun to live successfully—he is healthy; he works; he loves. He practices meditation, striving to observe the world without evaluating it. In this state of heightened awareness, he sets out for a ten-day silent retreat in the French heartland, leaving his phone, his books, and his daily life behind. But he’s also gathering material for his next book, which he thinks will be a pleasant, useful introduction to yoga. Four days later, there’s a tap on the window: something has happened.

À un moment de ma vie, j'ai été chrétien. Cela a duré trois ans. C'est passé. Affaire classée, alors ? Il faut qu'elle ne le soit pas tout à fait pour que, vingt ans plus tard, j'aie éprouvé le besoin d'y revenir. Ces chemins du Nouveau Testament que j'ai autrefois parcourus en croyant, je les parcours aujourd'hui - en romancier ? en historien ? Disons en enquêteur.

Set in Paris and Kotelnich, a small post-Soviet town, My Life as a Russian Novel traces Carrere's pursuit of two obsessions: the disappearance of his Russian grandfather and his erotic fascination with a woman he loves but cannot keep from destroying. In prose that is elegant and passionate, Carrere weaves the strands of his story into a travelogue of a journey inward.

« Le 9 janvier 1993, Jean-Claude Romand a tué sa femme, ses enfants, ses parents, puis tenté, mais en vain, de se tuer lui-même. L'enquête a révélé qu'il n'était pas médecin comme il le prétendait et, chose plus difficile encore à croire, qu'il n'était rien d'autre. Il mentait depuis dix-huit ans, et ce mensonge ne recouvrait rien. Près d'être découvert, il a préféré supprimer ceux dont il ne pouvait supporter le regard. Il a été condamné à la réclusion criminelle à perpétuité.

Tra delinquenza e poesia, Limonov ha conosciuto i casermoni ucraini e il jet set di Manhattan, ha attraversato la guerra nei gelidi Balcani e le peggiori prigioni russe, fino a diventare capo venerato di un partito nazionalbolscevico in pieno postcomunismo. Il travolgente racconto della vita oltraggiosa di un uomo inquietante e commovente, scritto da uno scrittore che non teme le pieghe più oscure della realtà.

Ogni mattina, per quasi dieci mesi, Carrère ha ascoltato il resoconto di quelle "esperienze estreme di morte e di vita" e lo ha raccontato, come solo lui sa fare.

Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Heralded as an instant classic of fantasy literature, Maguire has written a wonderfully imaginative retelling of The Wizard of Oz told from the Wicked Witch's point of view. More than just a fairy tale for adults, Wicked is a meditation on the nature of good and evil.

Story
Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them. With fewer dragons willing to bond than cadets, most would kill Violet to better their own chances of success.

Story
Living in a year around Christmas town has its drawbacks. The caroling, the decorations, the insanely cheery spirit, it never disappears. It's why I like to hibernate away in my cave - I mean housekeeping a healthy distance from the holly jolly spirits. And all was going according to plan until my nemesis, Storee Taylor, moved in next door to care for her Aunt Cindy. Without blinking, she turned my simple world into a real nightmare-before-Christmas, especially when she decided to enter the town Christmas Kringle contest - which she was determined to win.
