Story
XVIème siècle. Fils de Gargantua, Pantagruel est un géant qui, bébé, réduit son berceau en miettes, mange le jarret de sa nourrice et étrangle des ours à mains nues. Adolescent, il décide de parfaire son éducation en faisant le tour des universités de France. Sur la route, il se moque des étudiants pédants, visite des librairies riches en savoir, et rencontre Panurge, un polyglotte vivant des indulgences et des faux mariages. Burlesque philosophique, lutte contre l'obscurantisme, et aventures agités, « Pantagruel » est un classique à lire.

Story
Dans un style alliant réalisme et surnaturel, ce chef-d'œuvre de Charles-Ferdinand Ramuz s'inspire des légendes alpines où l'homme entre raison et superstition fait face à la montagne et à sa rudesse. Le pâturage de Sasseneire en haute-montagne est délaissé depuis des décennies et des rumeurs circulent à propos d'évènements dramatiques qui s'y seraient déroulés.

Story
Le mystère d'être un corps, un corps qui interprète et vit sa vie, est partagé par tout le vivant : c'est la condition vitale universelle, et c'est probablement elle qui mérite d'appeler le sentiment d'appartenance le plus puissant. Ainsi, les animaux sont pour nous à la fois des parents et des étrangers d'une immense altérité. Baptiste Morizot approfondit ici une série d'enquêtes philosophiques fondées sur la pratique du pistage.

Story
Ce court roman raconte le voyage entrepris par quatre personnages à travers la steppe. Iégorouchka, qui a dix ans, est envoyé au lycée, et son oncle, Kousmitchov, qui doit également traverser ces paysages arides à la recherche d'un homme riche avec qui il fait affaire, accompagne son neveu. La nature impressionnante et les rencontres de fortune dessinent un chemin vers le lycée à la fois violent et touchant, comme Tchékhov décrit souvent l'humanité elle-même.

Story
Saint-Pétersbourg, un fonctionnaire devenu petit rentier, s'adonne à une introspection à l'adresse d'interlocuteurs muets. Bavard inoffensif ou pervers déroutant, il explore ses propres petitesses, se décrit tour à tour comme vil, malade et méchant puis se reprend, s'absout, visite son passé. Enlisé dans l'inaction, l'oisiveté l'entraîne vers des sentiments amers envers ses semblables, sa conscience l'accable mais il avance en forcené solitaire.

Story
Lors d'une nuit provençale où "les étoiles ont éclaté comme de l'herbe", Bobi le saltimbanque surgit sur le plateau. Pour le fermier Jourdan qui invite l'étranger chez lui, cette visite relève de la Visitation. Par ses incroyables paroles, Bobi s'annonce comme un personnage christique, gouverné par la joie, qui va bouleverser le "travail triste" des paysans du coin, leur révéler une vie plus authentique, plus risquée aussi, tant elle exige de confiance en l'homme et dépasse les égoïsmes. L'argent n'est plus utile ; on parle de mettre le blé en commun.

Story
Publié en 1848, Le manifeste du Parti communiste est antérieur à toutes les obédiences auxquelles on l'associe machinalement. Marx suit les principes du mouvement dialectique hégélien et l'applique à la politique. On retrouve ici le renversement célèbre du maître et de l'esclave, où c'est finalement le "prolétaire" qui par sa force de production est en position dominante dans la société. Mais cette domination naturelle lui est refusée, il faut donc qu'il la revendique à travers une révolution.

À la veille de la retraite, un professeur de lettres classiques, accusé d'avoir tenu des propos racistes, préfère démissionner plutôt que de livrer le secret qui pourrait l'innocenter. Tandis que l'affaire Lewinski défraie les chroniques bien-pensantes, Nathan Zuckerman ouvre le dossier de son voisin Coleman Silk et découvre derrière la vie très rangée de l'ancien doyen un passé inouï, celui d'un homme qui s'est littéralement réinventé, et un présent non moins ravageur : sa liaison avec la sensuelle Faunia, femme de ménage de trente-quatre ans.

Il leur arrive de s'aimer.

"J’ai voulu raconter l’amour tel qu’il est vécu la plupart du temps par la plupart des gens : sans crise ni événement. Au gré de la vie qui passe, des printemps qui reviennent et repartent. Dans la mélancolie des choses. Il est nulle part et partout, il est dans le temps même. Les Moreau vont vivre cinquante ans côte à côte, en compagnie l’un de l’autre. C’est le bon mot : elle est sa compagne, il est son compagnon. Seule la mort les séparera, et encore ce n’est pas sûr." F. B.

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.
