Gary Sinise's reading of John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men is nothing short of magnificent. Moving effortlessly from an eloquent, understated narrative voice to each character's quite particular presence, Sinise demonstrates a true command of the medium. At times, Sinise is so convincing that one is hard-pressed to believe that a single reader could be responsible for so many varied characterizations. Thanks to such a skilled reading, this audio edition captures every nuance of Steinbeck's austere prose and the full power of the novel's tragic denouement. Top to bottom, it's a masterful retelling of an American classic. R.W.B. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine

En un combat douteux
Steinbeck John- Le soleil va bientôt se coucher. A la nuit, ceux de la ville vont peut-être laisser passer nos hommes, mais nous, ils nous arrêteront. Ils veulent notre peau. Alors, je veux que tu t'en ailles, dès que la nuit tombera, et que tu retournes en ville. - Pourquoi ? Mac le regarda de côté, puis fixa de nouveau son regard sur le sol. - Quand je t'ai amené ici, dit-il, je croyais que j'étais très fort, et je suis persuadé maintenant que tu en vaux dix comme moi, Jim. S'il m'arrive quelque chose, on trouvera facilement vingt types qui pourront me remplacer. Mais toi, tu as du génie pour ce genre de travail. Le parti ne peut pas te sacrifier ainsi ; pour une petite grève de rien du tout. Ce ne serait pas raisonnable.Sur commande, 2 à 4 joursCOMMANDER9,50 € -

Lune noire
Steinbeck JohnRésumé : Les échos de la guerre ne parvenaient qu'à peine dans ce village perdu au fin fond de la Scandinavie. Jusqu'au jour où les premiers soldats nazis apparurent au sommet de la côte.. Quel comportement adopter ? C'est finalement une forme de résistance qui va prévaloir, malgré ceux qui, à l'instar du commerçant Corell, préfèrent jouer le jeu de l'occupant. Une résistance sourde, silencieuse, obstinée, animée par le maire Orden, et son vieil ami le médecin Winter, qui va d'abord contraindre l'ennemi à la terreur, puis l'acheminer peu à peu vers l'angoisse, le désespoir... C'est en 1942 que l'auteur de A l'Est d'Eden - plus tard prix Nobel de littérature - publia ce roman, édité clandestinement en France. Un huis clos où le village, cerné par la neige, apparaît peu à peu comme un microcosme de l'Europe confrontée à la barbarie totalitaire.EN STOCKCOMMANDER9,00 €

1984 (VO)
ORWELL GEORGEGeorge Orwell's dystopian masterpiece, Nineteen Eighty-Four is perhaps the most pervasively influential book of the twentieth century, making famous Big Brother, newspeak and Room 101.'Who controls the past controls the future: who controls the present controls the past'Hidden away in the Record Department of the sprawling Ministry of Truth, Winston Smith skilfully rewrites the past to suit the needs of the Party. Yet he inwardly rebels against the totalitarian world he lives in, which demands absolute obedience and controls him through the all-seeing telescreens and the watchful eye of Big Brother, symbolic head of the Party. In his longing for truth and liberty, Smith begins a secret love affair with a fellow-worker Julia, but soon discovers the true price of freedom is betrayal.Eric Arthur Blair (1903-1950), better known by his pen-name, George Orwell, was born in India, where his father worked for the Civil Service. An author and journalist, Orwell was one of the most prominent and influential figures in twentieth-century literature. His unique political allegory Animal Farm was published in 1945, and it was this novel, together with the dystopia of Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), which brought him world-wide fame. All his novels and non-fiction, including Burmese Days (1934), Down and Out in Paris and London (1933), The Road to Wigan Pier (1937) and Homage to Catalonia (1938) are published in Penguin Modern Classics.
