        Poème pour une petite fille à l’autre bout du monde (Poem for a little girl on the other side of the world)

        by Dieulermesson Petit Frère

        A statement on otherness, a song of love and sincerity, Poème pour une petite fille à l’autre bout du monde is an invitation into the intimate sphere of the poet. It is the figuration of the paternal real brought to its highest point. A father and a little girl meet somewhere, at the other end of a street or a railway station, to talk about friendship, life and their regrets, to take stock of all their failed acts and to give each other reasons to love each other, despite the distance, the disarray and the madness that can arise from absence.

        by Marie Desvignes

        On an autumn evening, a fire broke out in the only school in the province of Saint-Andre and completely destroyed it.

Transported to another world, on the continent of Onirix, among the Menz people, Johann, now endowed with great powers, is entrusted with a great mission: to find the manuscripts of the Book of Worlds stolen for two centuries by the witch Theuz.

        Nulle veine n’est fumante quand la joie est borgne (No vein is smoking when joy is one-eyed)

        by Snayder Pierre-Louis

        Nulle veine n'est fumante quand la joie est borgne is a book that one must go to meet as one goes to discover the song of the world. For this impulse of life and dream that emanates from poetic expression. For the need for tenderness that is born on the page. Finally, for the breath of life that words breathe in the face of the daily chaos that erodes hope.

        Marcel Reich-Ranicki antwortet auf 99 Fragen

        by Marcel Reich-Ranicki, Volker Weidermann, Hans-Joachim Simm

        Die Rubrik der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Sonntagszeitung "Fragen Sie Reich-Ranicki" ist längst eine Institution geworden. Mit Spannung werden die Fragen und mehr noch die Antworten erwartet, und natürlich betreffen sie die Literatur: "Was halten Sie von der russischen Literatur des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts?" - "Sollen wir von unseren Schriftstellern verlangen, daß sie ihre Ansichten zu aktuellen politischen Fragen öffentlich verkünden?" - "Was hätten Sie Thomas Mann gern gefragt?" Die vorliegende Sammlung der 99 interessantesten Fragen an Marcel Reich-Ranicki und seiner Antworten darf durchaus eine kleine Literaturgeschichte und ein demoskopischer Spiegel des literarischen Lebens genannt werden, und sie zeigt eines gewiß: Die Begeisterung für Literatur ist - allen Bedenken zum Trotz - nicht nur auf der Seite des Antwortenden unvermindert groß.

        England’s military heartland

        Preparing for war on Salisbury Plain

        by Vron Ware, Antonia Dawes, Mitra Pariyar, Alice Cree

        A considered investigation of a long-standing army base's impact on the British countryside. What is it like to live next door to a British Army base? Beyond the barracks provides an eye-opening account of the sprawling military presence on Salisbury Plain, drawing on a wide range of voices from both sides of the divide. Targeted for expansion under government plans to reorganise the UK's global defence estate, the Salisbury 'super garrison' offers a unique opportunity to explore the impact of the military footprint in a particular place. But this is no ordinary environment: as well as being the world-famous site of Stonehenge, the grasslands of Salisbury Plain are home to rare plants and wildlife. How does the army take responsibility for conserving this unique landscape as it trains young men and women to use lethal weapons? Are its claims that its presence is a positive for the environment anything more than propaganda? Beyond the barracks investigates these questions against the backdrop of a historic landscape inscribed with the legacy of perpetual war.
