Furie
Vous êtes professeur d'anglais, à la retraite, plutôt célèbre grâce à la télévision, et puis une nuit vous vous retrouvez, un couteau à la main, dans la chambre de votre femme, où dort paisiblement votre garçon. En furie. En pleine transe rageuse. Prêt à commettre l'irréparable. Inquiétant, non ? De quoi filer à l'anglaise, dare-dare, abandonnant femme et enfant, pour gagner les États-Unis. C'est ce qui arrive à Malik Solenka, Londonien d'origine indienne, "irascible créateur de poupées naguère historien des idées". Mais voilà. À New York, le refuge qui se voudrait un moment de répit, de méditation, de quête d'une sérénité perdue, la furie poursuit son œuvre démentielle. Elle prend d'abord la forme de meurtres de jeunes filles puis de rencontres amoureuses, de jeux érotiques qui tournent au cauchemar… Pour son dernier roman, Salman Rushdie n'a pas fait dans la petite dentelle, le point de Bruges ou d'Alençon, ni lésiné sur les moyens de lancer et relancer son abracadabrant récit. Il cite Woody Allen et Proust, commente un match de foot de l'Euro 2000, parle d'Alain Ducasse et d'Excalibur… Il convoque genres policier et psychologique, la tragédie et la drôlerie, l'érotisme et l'humour distant (so british), use des suspensions, des interrogations, rebondit dans l'exclamation, oscillant entre rêve et réalité. Un livre plein et entier. --Céline Darner

Sinuhe l´Egiziano
Best seller dell'autore Mika Waltari, questo romanzo ha raggiunto in breve tempo il milione di copie vendute solo in Europa. La ragione di questo successo va ricercata nello straordinario interesse della vicenda, nella perfetta ricostruzione dell'Egitto dei Faraoni e nella simpatia che desta nel lettore il protagonista di questa singolare vicenda: il medico Sinuhe, un personaggio ricco di fascino e di mistero. Sinuhe ? forse il personaggio eterno della ricerca umana che non si appaga mai, attraverso l'amicizia, l'amore, la gloria e anche la malinconia delle cose amate e non conquistate. Accanto a lui: il faraone Akhenaton, Nefertiti, la malvagia e sensuale moglie di Akhenaton, il generale Horemheb e Nefernefernefer, rapace cortigiana di Tebe.

Masters of the Air
Meet the Flying Fortresses of the American Eighth Air Force, Britain’s Lancaster comrades, who helped to bring down the Nazis.
Historian and World War II expert Donald Miller brings us the story of the bomber boys who brought the war to Hitler's doorstep. Unlike ground soldiers they slept on clean beds, drank beer in local pubs, and danced to the swing music of the travelling Air Force bands. But they were also an elite group of fighters who put their lives on the line in the most dangerous role of all.
Miller takes readers from the adrenaline filled battles in the sky, to the airbases across England, the German prison camps, and onto the ground to understand the devastation faced by civilians.
Drawn from interviews, oral histories, and American, British and German archives, Masters of the Air is the authoritative, deeply moving and important account of the world's first and only bomber war.

Christendom
In the fourth century AD, a new faith exploded out of Palestine. Overwhelming the paganism of Rome, and converting the Emperor Constantine in the process, it resoundingly defeated a host of other rivals. Almost a thousand years later, all of Europe was controlled by Christian rulers, and the religion, ingrained within culture and society, exercised a monolithic hold over its population. But, as Peter Heather shows in this compelling history, there was nothing inevitable about Christendom's rise to Europe-wide dominance.
In exploring how the Christian religion became such a defining feature of the European landscape, and how a small sect of isolated congregations was transformed into a mass movement centrally directed from Rome, Heather shows how Christendom constantly battled against both so-called 'heresies' and other forms of belief. From the crisis that followed the collapse of the Roman Empire, which left the religion teetering on the edge of extinction, to the astonishing revolution in which the Papacy emerged as the head of a vast international corporation, Heather traces Christendom's chameleon-like capacity for self-reinvention and willingness to mobilize well-directed force.
Christendom's achievement was not, or not only, to define official Christianity, but - from its scholars and its lawyers, to its provincial officials and missionaries in far-flung corners of the continent - to transform it into an institution that wielded effective religious authority across nearly all of the disparate peoples of medieval Europe. This is its extraordinary story.
Nomad Century
Longlisted for the Financial Times Business Book of the Year award
An urgent investigation of the most underreported, seismic consequence of climate change: how it will force us to change where - and how - we live
We are facing a species emergency. With every degree of temperature rise, a billion people will be displaced from the zone in which humans have lived for thousands of years. While we must do everything we can to mitigate the impact of climate change, the brutal truth is that huge swathes of the world are becoming uninhabitable. From Bangladesh to Sudan to the western United States, and in cities from Cardiff to New Orleans to Shanghai, the quadruple threat of drought, heat, wildfires and flooding will utterly reshape Earth's human geography in the coming decades.
In this rousing call to arms, Royal Society Science Book Prize-winning author Gaia Vince describes how we can plan for and manage this unavoidable climate migration while we restore the planet to a fully habitable state. The vital message of this book is that migration is not the problem - it's the solution. Drawing on a wealth of eye-opening data and original reporting, Vince shows how migration brings benefits not only to migrants themselves, but to host countries, many of which face demographic crises and labour shortages. As Vince describes, we will need to move northwards as a species, into the habitable fringes of Europe, Asia and Canada and the greening Arctic circle.
While the climate catastrophe is finally getting the attention it deserves, the inevitability of mass migration has been largely ignored. In Nomad Century, Vince provides, for the first time, an examination of the most pressing question facing humanity.
