A strange bond between a teacher and a schoolgirl takes on ever deeper and stranger shapes as the years progress.

Equally adept at capturing the foibles and obsessions of men and of women, Lynn Coady is quite possibly the writer who best captures what it is to be human at this particular moment in our history.

The time is 1975. The place is an unnamed city by the sea. The government has just declared a State of Emergency, in whose upheavals four strangers - a spirited widow, a young student uprooted from his idyllic hill station, and two tailors who have fled the caste violence of their native village - will be thrust together, forced to share one cramped apartment and an uncertain future.

"In a single year, my father left us twice. The first time, to end his marriage, and the second, when he took his own life. I was 10 years old." Master storyteller Madeleine Thien takes us inside an extended family in China, showing us the lives of two successive generations - those who lived through Mao's Cultural Revolution and their children, who became the students protesting in Tiananmen Square. At the center of this epic story are two young women, Marie and Ai-Ming.

Story
One year after the death of his beloved musician father, thirteen-year-old Benny Oh begins to hear voices. The voices belong to the things in his house—a sneaker, a broken Christmas ornament, a piece of wilted lettuce. Although Benny doesn't understand what these things are saying, he can sense their emotional tone; some are pleasant, a gentle hum or coo, but others are snide, angry and full of pain. When his mother, Annabelle, develops a hoarding problem, the voices grow more clamorous.

Story
Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.

A disturbing tale of a young man's uncanny ability to remain both young and beautiful while descending into a life of heartless debauchery, The Picture of Dorian Gray was considered proof of both Wilde's genius and his perversion. Oscar Wilde's scandalous best seller of 1891 was one of the most damning pieces of evidence used against him in the trial that brought about his downfall.

Ce polar captivant, écrit par l'auteur à succès Andrew Pyper, traduit de l'anglais par Cécile Arbus et interprété par Patrice Labbé, combine enquêtes criminelles, éléments surnaturels et intuition.

Story
L'été 1966 restera bien ancré dans la mémoire des Thibault. À cause, certes, des nombreuses journées passées en famille à la plage de Shipshaw et des pêches miraculeuses de Pascal, le père, sur la rivière SainteMarguerite. Mais, surtout, à cause de l'annonce du divorce de Rémi, son jeune frère. Depuis que leur mère a appris la mauvaise nouvelle, non seulement elle ne parle que de ça, mais elle a continuellement la larme à l'oeil.

Story
Laurie Juneau, trente-sept ans, designer cuisiniste et mère de famille, mène la parfaite vie rangée dont plusieurs jeunes femmes rêvent. Pourtant, entre Louis-Philippe et elle, tout n’est pas aussi rose qu’elle le prétend devant ses amies. Sortant tout juste d’une dépression majeure, Laurie essaie tant bien que mal de raviver la flamme dans son couple, mais le fossé qui s’est insidieusement creusé entre son conjoint et elle au fil des ans semble trop profond pour qu’elle puisse y parvenir.

Story
The year is 1348. Thomas, a disgraced knight, has found a young girl alone in a dead Norman village. An orphan of the Black Death, and an almost unnerving picture of innocence, she tells Thomas that plague is only part of a larger cataclysm - that the fallen angels under Lucifer are rising in a second war on heaven, and that the world of men has fallen behind the lines of conflict. Is it delirium or is it faith? She believes she has seen the angels of God. She believes the righteous dead speak to her in dreams. And now she has convinced the faithless Thomas to shepherd her across a depraved landscape to Avignon.
