Story
In this long-awaited and candid memoir, Hitchens re-traces the footsteps of his life to date, from his childhood in Portsmouth, with his adoring, tragic mother and reserved Naval officer father; to his life in Washington DC, the base from which from he would launch fierce attacks on tyranny of all kinds. Along the way, he recalls the girls, boys and booze; the friendships and the feuds; the grand struggles and lost causes; and the mistakes and misgivings that have characterised his life.

Story
En 1845, Henry David Thoreau part vivre dans une cabane construite de ses propres mains, au bord de l'étang de Walden, dans le Massachusetts. Là, au fond des bois, il mène pendant deux ans une vie frugale et autarcique, qui lui laisse tout le loisir de méditer sur le sens de l'existence, la société et le rapport des êtres humains à la Nature. Une réflexion sereine qui montre qu'il faut s'abstraire du monde et de ses désirs pour devenir réellement soi-même.

Story
Libre, passionnée, courageuse, dotée d'un franc-parler connu aussi bien au Canada qu'en France, Denise Bombardier n'est pas de ces journalistes et écrivains qui laissent indifférent. Femme de combats, d'engagements, parce qu'elle ne craint ni la polémique ni les débats d'idées, elle s'est tracé un sillon médiatique et littéraire où s'impose une ligne directrice rare : le refus des compromis et des compromissions. Une force de caractère qui lui vient de loin, comme ces mémoires le décrivent avec vigueur, chaleur, tendresse, colères et humour aussi.

Story
Le récit de sa propre vie est peut-être le plus beau texte qu'ait jamais écrit Gabrielle Roy (1909-1983). Vibrant, lumineux et émouvant, il porte l'empreinte de cette grande écrivaine à la personnalité forte, attachante, sensible, pleine de vitalité. L'auteure de Bonheur d'occasion y retrace ce qu'on pourrait appeler ses années de formation: sa jeunesse dans la petite communauté francophone de Saint-Boniface au Manitoba, son métier d'institutrice, ses longs séjours en Europe, puis son établissement à Montréal.

Story
Dark, deviant, and deliriously funny, Jude Angelini writes in the colloquial vein of Charles Bukowski, using his unique, natural voice to tell stories from his life. He writes about his sexual encounters - both strange and intimate - alongside stories from his childhood and his tell-all experiences with "science drugs". Throughout it all, Jude is critical of himself and his actions, proving himself to be vulnerable, lonely, and extremely relatable. A stellar follow-up to Hyena.

Story
What is the role of the writer? Prophet? High priest of art? Court jester? Or witness to the real world? Looking back on her own childhood and writing career, Margaret Atwood examines the metaphors which writers of fiction and poetry have used to explain - or excuse! - their activities, looking at what costumes they have assumed, what roles they have chosen to play. In her final chapter she takes up the challenge of the title: if a writer is to be seen as "gifted", who is doing the giving and what are the terms of the gift?

Beginning with her experience as a medical actor who was paid to act out symptoms for medical students to diagnose, Leslie Jamison's visceral and revealing essays ask essential questions about our basic understanding of others: How should we care about each other? How can we feel another's pain, especially when pain can be assumed, distorted, or performed? Is empathy a tool by which to test or even grade each other?

Story
André Gide, a towering figure in French letters, draws upon his friendship with Oscar Wilde to sketch a compelling portrait of the tragic, doomed author, both celebrated and shunned in his time. Rather than compile a complete biography, Gide invites us to discover Wilde as he did - from their first meeting in 1891 to their final parting just two years before Wilde’s death - all told through Gide’s sensitive, incomparable prose. Using his notes, recollections, and conversations, Gide illuminates Wilde as a man whose true art was not writing, but living.

Il y a un train qui siffle au loin, des fissures multiples, un ravin qui se creuse. Et les seins de la belle Arielle. Il y aura des morts. Une amitié malmenée. Et un amour empêché. Comment aimer et se laisser aimer quand on est coupé de ses sentiments? Comment réparer l’irréparable?
