Commonwealth
A powerful story of two families brought together by beauty and torn apart by tragedy, the new novel by the Orange Prize-winning author of Bel Canto and State of Wonder is her most astonishing yet It is 1964: Bert Cousins shows up at Franny Keating's christening party uninvited and notices a heart-stoppingly beautiful woman. When he kisses Beverly Keating, his host's wife, he sets in motion the joining of two families whose shared fate will be defined on a day seven years later. In 1988, Franny Keating, now twenty-four, has dropped out of law school and is working as a cocktail waitress in Chicago. When she meets the famous author Leon Posen one night at the bar, and tells him about her family, she unwittingly relinquishes control over their story. Told with equal measures of humour and heartbreak, Commonwealth is a powerful tale of a family's far-reaching bonds of love and responsibility - and a meditation on inspiration, interpretation and the ownership of stories.

Robinson Crusoe
C'est un simple journaliste, mercenaire de l'écriture et pamphlétaire redouté, qui créa du jour au lendemain l'un des mythes fondateurs de la modernité occidentale, avec Don Quichotte et Faust. Car l'essentiel de notre culture et de notre civilisation se trouve bel et bien contenu dans Robinson Crusoë : le triomphe du capitalisme marchand, avec ses comptes d'apothicaire, son rationalisme et son culte de l'efficacité ; l'avnement de l'esclavage, du colonialisme, du racisme et d'un christianisme tourné vers le salut individuel ; l'allégorie d'une âme doublement retranchée dans son île et dans son fortin inexpugnable. Qute d'un bonheur impossible, méditation sur la solitude, monologue digne des lamentations de Job, ce texte dépasse largement son cadre littéraire et par la poésie d'une langue simple et directe, par l'énergie d'une pensée alerte, continue de structurer nos rves les plus secrets. --Scarbo
