Le continent de glace qui bouillonne de vie

Direction l'Antarctique

A CHILLING THRILLER FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF INTERNATIONAL PHENOMENON, THE WHISPER MAN 'An electrifyingly scary thriller' DAILY MAIL --- Reeling after his father suddenly takes his own life, Neil Dawson starts seeking out answers to help make sense of this tragedy. He rifles through his father's possessions and is shocked to discover an old novel - one he'd never known his father had written. The Black Flower. Enclosed within is a dried rose - eerily similar to the one held in the book by a mysterious girl who is found with no name and no memory - only a black flower in her hand... Why did his father keep this book hidden? And is the flower a sign - or a warning? As Neil begins to uncover more strange clues, he suspects there is more to his father's suicide than meets the eye. Detective Hannah Price is mourning the death of her own father, whose shadow looms large after she followed him into the police. When Neil calls on her to help investigate his father's death, she soon realises the truth Neil is seeking lies within The Black Flower. But as she starts digging deeper, she's shocked to discover dark secrets from her own past lurking in its pages... --- Praise for Alex North 'The best crime novel of the decade' Steve Cavanagh 'A thriller that is both terrifying and utterly heartbreaking. Mesmerising and masterful' Mark Billingham 'This is a true skin-crawler' Guardian 'Shades of Thomas Harris and Stephen King but brilliant in its own right' C.J. Tudor 'First it's spooky. Then it's scary. Then it's terrifying' A.J. Finn

When Neil Dawson's father commits suicide, he is devastated by the loss. But even through his grief, Neil knows something isn't right. Among his father's possessions, he finds a copy of an old novel, The Black Flower. Opening it will take Neil into an investigation full of danger, pain and subterfuge. Detective Hannah Price is also mourning her father, having followed his footsteps into the police force. When she gets assigned to Neil's father's case, it will lead her on a journey into her own past and to the heart of a shattering secret...

Hysteria

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “After his spectacular Lincoln in the Bardo, Saunders returns . . . with a new novel even more spectacular than the last.”—Los Angeles Times A “daring” (Time) novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling, Booker Prize–winning author of A Swim in a Pond in the Rain and Tenth of December, taking place at the bedside of an oil company CEO in the twilight hours of his life as he is ferried from this world into the next “Vibrant, fiendishly clever . . . Vigil is pure Saunders: the death of empathy, he insists, is greatly exaggerated.”—The Boston Globe Not for the first time, Jill “Doll” Blaine finds herself hurtling toward earth, reconstituting as she falls, right down to her favorite black pumps. She plummets towards her newest charge, yet another soul she must usher into the afterlife, and lands headfirst in the circular drive of his ornate mansion. She has performed this sacred duty 343 times since her own death. Her charges, as a rule, have been greatly comforted in their final moments. But this charge, she soon discovers, isn’t like the others. The powerful K. J. Boone will not be consoled, because he has nothing to regret. He lived a big, bold, epic life, and the world is better for it. Isn’t it? Vigil transports us, careening, through the wild final evening of a complicated man. Visitors begin to arrive (worldly and otherworldly, alive and dead), clamoring for a reckoning. Birds swarm the dying man’s room; a black calf grazes on the love seat; a man from a distant, drought-ravaged village materializes; two oil-business cronies from decades past show up with chilling plans for Boone’s postdeath future. With the wisdom, playfulness, and explosive imagination we’ve come to expect, George Saunders takes on the gravest issues of our time—the menace of corporate greed, the toll of capitalism, the environmental perils of progress—and, in the process, spins a tale that encompasses life and death, good and evil, and the thorny question of absolution.

Routledge Classics

Paul Preston's The Coming of the Spanish Civil War is widely regarded as a classic account of the collapse of democracy in Spain and the and outbreak of the civil war. In a narrative that paints a picture of picture of a deeply divided country, he coherently and excitingly outlines the social and economic background to the conflict. Explaining Spain's predicament as a predominantly poor, agricultural country riven by economic inequality, Preston deftly shows how the Republican-Socialist coalition's attempts to reform Spain in the early 1930s were continually undermined and thwarted by right-wing parties and factions. The incompatible interests represented by these two mass parliamentary parties - those of the landless labourers and big landlords, of industrialists and workers - spilled over into conflict which could not be contained within the parliamentary arena, leading ultimately to the outbreak of conflict in 1936.Drawing on archives, diaries and letters of major protagonists, The Coming of the Spanish Civil War remains the definitive account of a conflict whose legacy is still being confronted in Spain today.This Routledge Classics edition includes a new Preface by the author, in which he reflects on how the book came to be written.
