«Le premier soir, je me suis donc endormi sur le sable à mille milles de toute terre habitée. J’étais bien plus isolé qu’un naufragé sur un radeau au milieu de l’océan. Alors, vous imaginez ma surprise, au lever du jour, quand une drôle de petite voix m’a réveillé. Elle disait: “S’il vous plaît…dessine-moi un mouton!” J’ai bien regardé. Et j’ai vu ce petit bonhomme tout à fait extraordinaire qui me considérait gravement…»

La version originale du chef-d’œuvre de Saint-Exupéry, suivie d’un cahier spécial pour aller à la rencontre de l’auteur.

Avec des aquarelles de l’auteur et un cahier spécial

Open Water

Arnaldo Ageno — Sun, 05 Jun 2022 16:54:13 +0000

Two young people meet at a pub in South East London. Both are Black British, both won scholarships to private schools where they struggled to belong, both are now artists – he a photographer, she a dancer – trying to make their mark in a city that by turns celebrates and rejects them. Tentatively, tenderly, they fall in love. But two people who seem destined to be together can still be torn apart by fear and violence.

At once an achingly beautiful love story and a potent insight into race and masculinity, Open Water asks what it means to be a person in a world that sees you only as a Black body, to be vulnerable when you are only respected for strength, to find safety in love, only to lose it. With gorgeous, soulful intensity, Caleb Azumah Nelson has written the most essential British debut of recent years.

Klara and the Sun

Arnaldo Ageno — Thu, 02 Jun 2022 16:09:41 +0000

The Sun always has ways to reach us. From her place in the store, Klara, an Artificial Friend with outstanding observational qualities, watches carefully the behaviour of those who come in to browse, and of those who pass in the street outside. She remains hopeful a customer will soon choose her, but when the possibility emerges that her circumstances may change for ever, Klara is warned not to invest too much in the promises of humans. In Klara and The Sun, Kazuo Ishiguro looks at our rapidly changing world through the eyes of an unforgettable narrator to explore a fundamental question: what does it mean to love?
