The poems in Sylvia Plath's Ariel, including many of her best-known such as 'Lady Lazarus', 'Daddy', 'Edge' and 'Paralytic', were all written between the publication in 1960 of Plath's first book, The Colossus, and her death in 1963.'If the poems are despairing, vengeful and destructive, they are at the same time tender, open to things, and also unusually clever, sardonic, hardminded . . . They are works of great artistic purity and, despite all the nihilism, great generosity . . . the book is a major literary event.' A. Alvarez in the ObserverThis beautifully designed edition forms part of a series with five other cherished poets, including Wendy Cope, Don Paterson, Philip Larkin, Simon Armitage and Alice Oswald.

Arbres d'hiver. Précédé de La traversée, Edition bilingue français-anglais
De son vivant, Sylvia Plath a publié de nomnbreux poèmes dans des revues américaines ou anglaises, mais un seul recueil : Le Colosse. Plusieurs centaines de poèmes restaient inédits.Son mari et la s'ur de ce dernier établiront trois recueils : Ariel, en 1965, qui aussitôt la place par les grands poètes anglo-saxons contemporains, puis La Traversée et Arbres d'hiver en 1971.En 1981 paraît Collected Poems - 224 poèmes présentés chronologiquement et couvrant les six dernières années de sa vie (de 1956 à 1963). Ce livre obtient, l'année de sa publication, le prix Pulitzer pour la poésie. Depuis, la renommée de Sylvia Plath n'a cessé de s'étendre. Elle est l'objet d'un véritable culte aux États-Unis.Les deux recueils traduits ici, La Traversée et Arbres d'hiver, sont une transition entre la poésie du Colosse (où Sylvia Plath met en place les éléments d'une mythologie personnelle autour de l'absence, la mort, le sentiment d'insécurité et d'abandon) et celle des poèmes d'Ariel (où cette mythologie est reprise et exprimée avec une violence portée à l'extrême). La Traversée et Arbres d'hiver présentent un univers plus nuancé, où les démons habituels paraissent, sinon exorcisés, moins menaçants, presque familiers.Sur commande en 2-4 joursCOMMANDER11,40 € -

Journaux. 1950-1962
Pour beaucoup de lecteurs à travers le monde, le poète Sylvia Plath est devenu une figure de culte. Sa destinée exemplaire, son mariage au poète britannique Ted Hughes (figure contestée, gourou pour les uns, démon pour les autres), son suicide en 1963, à l'âge de trente et un ans, les deux enfants qu'elle laissait... tous ces éléments de sa vie contribuèrent à accroître sa renommée. Les journaux, commencés à dix-huit ans et tenus jusqu'à la veille de sa mort, plongent le lecteur au coeur de la vie intérieure d'une femme qui lutta quotidiennement contre elle-même et n'eut de cesse qu'elle ait transformé en mots la réalité. Exigence tranchante et désir d'absolu ressortent à chaque instant. A côté des impatiences de la collégienne ou des obsessions de l'écrivain paralysé, on trouve des pages inspirées et splendides, qui sont à la source de nombreux poèmes. Formidable matériau en fusion, ces journaux livrent aussi nombre de passages amusants et de portraits féroces des grandes figures littéraires de l'époque.Sur commande en 2-4 joursCOMMANDER29,50 €

Burning Boy VO
** WINNER OF THE L.A. TIMES BOOK PRIZE FOR BIOGRAPHY **American writer Stephen Crane died in 1900 at the age of 28. In his short, intense life, this burning boy wrote a masterpiece, The Red Badge of Courage, as well as other novels, short stories, and dispatches from the front of two wars. His adventurous life took him to the Wild West, Mexico, then to Cuba during the Spanish American War - dodging bullets which killed those around him, and suffering shipwreck on his way home.Fleeing America because of a scandalous love affair, his last 18 months were spent in Britain where he became a close friends of H.G. Wells, Henry James and, especially, Joseph Conrad.Auster 's intention is to restore Crane to the pantheon of Modernist 20th century authors such as Conrad.Through Auster's skill as a novelist, Crane leaps off the page, and into the reader's heart.Sur commande en 6-10 joursCOMMANDER31,25 € -
The journals of Sylvia PLath 1950-1962
The Journals of Sylvia Plath offers an intimate portrait of the author of the extraordinary poems for which Plath is so widely loved, but it is also characterized by a prose of vigorous immediacy which places it alongside The Bell Jar as a work of literature. These exact and complete transcriptions of the journals kept by Plath for the last twelve years of her life - covering her marriage to Ted Hughes and her struggle with depression - are a key source for the poems which make up her collections Ariel and The Colossus.'Everything that passes before her eyes travels down from brain to pen with shattering clarity - 1950s New England, pre-co-ed Cambridge, pre-mass tourism Benidorm, where she and Hughes honeymooned, the birth of her son Nicholas in Devon in 1962. These and other passages are so graphic that you look up from the page surprised to find yourself back in the here and now . . . The struggle of self with self makes the Journals compelling and unique.' John Carey, Sunday TimesSur commande en 6-10 joursCOMMANDER26,00 € -
Cursed [VO]
Serilda and Gild cannot break the curses that tether their spirits to Adalheid's haunted castle. There they remain trapped for eternity. On the night of the Endless Moon, the Erlking means to capture one of the seven gods and so be reunited with his lover, Perchta, who has been banished to the underworld. But it soon becomes clear that the Eriking's hunger for vengeance won't be satisfied with a single wish, and his true intentions have the power to alter the mortal realm forever. Serilda and Gild have no choice but to thwart his plans, all the while solving the mystery of Gild's forgotten name, and freeing all the ghosts kept in servitude to the dark ones. As the evil forces gather, it seems only their love is strong enough to sustain them...Sur commande en 6-10 joursCOMMANDER9,81 €

THE PARIS LABYRINTH
In turn-of-the-twentieth-century France, Vincent-an ingenious designer of secret passages-embarks on a thrilling adventure to unlock ancient mysteries in a quest for lost treasure. Along the way, he battles against dark forces as he tries to discern who he can trust, while racing against the clock. Vincent knows what it means to keep a secret. With his troupe of talented craftsmen-his only family-he designs hidden compartments for priceless treasures and passages for undetectable escape routes. The rich and powerful who hire him pay handsomely for his work-and for his discretion. As Paris hosts the 1889 World's Fair, the city fills with visitors who come to see the controversial new Eiffel Tower with its gravitydefying elevators, to discover the latest inventions from across the globe, or to scout for prospective investment opportunities. After Vincent takes on an urgent secret mission, his team suddenly becomes the target of attempted assassinations. In a race against time, as death licks at their heels, they puzzle over who could be behind the violence. A client trying to erase tracks to a secret ? The dark forces of the occult somehow provoked by their work ? Confronted with mysteries uncovered from the past, and a life-or-death challenge that tests the limits of his ability, Vincent will do everything in his power to thwart the menace and protect his friends ... if only he can survive.Sur commande en 2-4 joursCOMMANDER24,90 € -
