Abstract: Quoi de plus divertissant qu'un étranger perdu dans un pays inconnu ? Aux yeux du Persan Usbek, nos manières, nos passions, nos mœurs paraissent un carnaval de bizarreries et de conventions absurdes. Loin d'Ispahan, de son harem et de ses sultanes, la France et Paris lui semblent incompréhensibles. Pour décrire cette nation " civilisée ", il entreprend une chronique étincelante d'esprit, de fausse naïveté et de hardiesse.

Abstract: Sofoco son nueve relatos potentísimos, nueve historias mínimas absolutamente redondas, cargadas de intensidad y de autenticidad, con personajes totalmente vivos, que saltan de la página y por los que sientes y te preocupas desde la primera línea. No es el conflicto colombiano, ni es la pobreza, ni el país.. Todo eso aparece y está muy presente, sí, pero por encima de todo sobresale el deseo, la vida en la calle, la chispa fugaz (de felicidad, de miedo, de sueño), la música, el movimiento, la salida adelante.

Abstract: The child of a married Japanese aristocrat and her African American GI lover, Nori is an outsider from birth. Her grandparents take her in, only to conceal her, fearful of a stain on the royal pedigree that they are desperate to uphold in a changing Japan. Obedient to a fault, Nori accepts her solitary life, despite her natural intellect and curiosity. But when chance brings her older half-brother, Akira, to the estate that is his inheritance and destiny, Nori finds in him an unlikely ally with whom she forms a powerful bond—a bond their formidable grandparents cannot allow and that will irrevocably change the lives they were always meant to lead. Because now that Nori has glimpsed a world in which perhaps there is a place for her after all, she is ready to fight to be a part of it—a battle that just might cost her everything.

Quitter Paris pour ce bled breton, sur le coup de sang d'un père dépressif, ça n'a fait plaisir à personne. Mais de là à fuguer ? A-t-elle vraiment fugué d'ailleurs ? Son frère, Antoine, n'y croit pas. Ses parents non plus. Ils ont tout envisagé, même le pire. Et puis comme la marée, Léa est revenue. En ramenant de loin des horreurs et des silences..

Abstract: Winning means fame and fortune. Losing means certain death. The Hunger Games have begun. . . . In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen regards it as a death sentence when she steps forward to take her sister's place in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before-and survival, for her, is second nature. Without really meaning to, she becomes a contender. But if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

Abstract: Aaron Stein used to think books were miracles. But not anymore. Even though he spends his days working in his family's secondhand bookstore, the only book Aaron can bear to read is one about the demise of the dinosaurs. It's a predicament he understands all too well, now that his brother and mom are gone and his friends have deserted him, leaving Aaron and his shambolic father alone in a moldering bookstore in a crusty mountain town where no one seems to read anymore. So when Aaron sees the opportunity to sell the store, he jumps at it, thinking this is the only way out. But he doesn't account for Chad..
