Story
It’s 1980s New York. Heady, excessive times. Alice Burns - a young book editor - is deep into a manuscript about the morass of family life. The observations resonate, perhaps because she has just watched her own family implode. As she reads she wonders: when did the sadness start? And could it be that unhappiness is a choice? Thus begins a great American epic which follows Alice as she navigates high school bullying, first love and sexism at an elite college, a spell in 1970s Ireland, and a tragedy that sends her stateside as the US embraces a cowboy actor named Reagan.

Story
Thomas Nesbitt is a divorced American writer in the midst of a rueful middle age. Living a very private life in Maine - in touch only with his daughter and still trying to reconcile him to the end of a long marriage that he knew was flawed from the outset - he finds his solitude disrupted by the arrival, one wintry morning, of a box postmarked Berlin. The return address on the box - Dussmann - unsettles him completely.

Story
Paris in the early '70s. Sam, an American student, meets a woman in a bookshop. Isabelle is enigmatic, beautiful, older and, unlike Sam, experienced in love's many contradictions. Sam is instantly smitten - but wary of the wedding ring on her finger. What begins as a regular arrangement in Isabelle’s tiny Parisian apartment transforms into a true affair of the heart, and one which lasts for decades to come. Isabelle in the Afternoon is a novel that questions what we seek, what we find and what we settle for.

Story
How long does it take to fall in love? For twenty years, Laura has been a good wife and a good mother. She's supported her husband through redundancy, she's worried about her son, she's encouraged her daughter. She's stopped thinking about all the places she'd like to go and all the books she'd like to talk about. She's not unhappy, exactly. She's not that self-indulgent. As anyone would tell you, Laura is wonderfully constant, caring, selfless.

Story
Pas évident d'échapper à sa famille, a fortiori quand cette dernière est en conflit permanent, avec une fâcheuse tendance à se mettre dans des situations compliquées. Alice Burns, elle, a choisi une solution radicale : mettre un océan entre elle et les siens et poursuivre ses études en Irlande. D'abord déstabilisée par l'accueil quelque peu revêche des Dublinois, elle se surprend à apprécier une existence simple, plus sereine. Et sa rencontre avec Ciaran pourrait même lui laisser entrevoir la possibilité d'une autre vie. Mais alors que résonnent les premiers échos des exactions de l'IRA, voici que resurgit une vieille connaissance, et avec elle un passé qu'Alice aurait préféré oublier à jamais.

Story
Après Les hommes ont peur de la lumière, Douglas Kennedy poursuit sa fresque d'une Amérique plus divisée que jamais. Un livre audio choc, glaçant de réalisme, le constat effrayant de ce que pourraient devenir bientôt les États-Unis... 2045. Les États-Unis n'existent plus, une nouvelle guerre de Sécession en a redessiné les frontières. Sur les côtes Est et Ouest, une république où la liberté des mœurs est totale mais où la surveillance est constante. Dans les États du Centre, une confédération où divorce, avortement et changement de sexe sont interdits et où les valeurs chrétiennes font loi.

Story
On ne peut jamais vraiment prévoir l'avenir ni savoir ce qui nous attend. On peut échafauder des projets, entretenir des espoirs. Mais la "symphonie du hasard" égrène toujours ses notes, et ses variations incessantes nous rappellent que tout ce que la vie a d'intéressant, de bon, de merveilleux, sera toujours contrebalancé par le mauvais, le tragique, l'effroyable. C'est le prix à payer pour ce cadeau extraordinaire, ce cadeau fou qui nous est fait : l'absence de certitudes... Sinon celle, absolue, que notre présence dans cet espace grand ouvert touchera un jour à sa fin.
