Georges Bernanos
About this listen
Le Journal d'un curé de campagne, considéré comme le chef-d'œuvre de Georges Bernanos, est le journal intime d'un jeune prêtre de village dans le nord de la France. De nature passionné et nourri d'idéaux, il confie ses espoirs, ses pensées, ses doutes, ses quêtes et dresse le portrait d'une communauté villageoise, de petites gens, de nobles et de plus fortunés qu'il voudrait "élever" malgré une santé fragile.
Paru en 1936, il reçoit le Grand prix du roman de l'Académie française. Porté à l'écran par Robert Bresson en 1951, il remporte le Grand prix du cinéma français.

"18 juillet. Hier à midi, sur la plage de Tipaza, un employé de bureau dénommé Meursault, demeurant rue Bab-Azoun à Alger, a tué de cinq balles de revolver un Arabe non encore identifié. Les motifs du crime restent inconnus. Arrêté, Meursault a été transféré à la prison d'Alger." Jugé, reconnu coupable de meurtre avec préméditation, condamné à mort et exécuté, on ne saura jamais pourquoi Meursault a tué. Il assiste à son procès comme si c'était un autre qu'on jugeait. Une profonde réflexion sur l'être et la vie.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 7
Voici l'histoire d'un amour impossible dans un océan de haine, l'histoire de l'innocence manipulée par la ruse, l'histoire de la barbarie humaine, de la guerre, de la vengeance : une histoire si belle et terrible à la fois, une histoire de trahisons. C'est aussi une ode épique, pleine de lumières et de ténèbres, de joies et de souffrances, de richesses et de misères où luisent les diamants, les lapis-lazuli, l'or et le marbre. C'est aussi l'abomination de la guerre, où les chairs éclatent sous les coups, où les combattants imaginent les ruses les plus folles pour anéantir leurs ennemis.

Chef-d'œuvre de la littérature russe, livre culte à travers le monde, "Le Maître et Marguerite" dénonce dans un rire féroce les pouvoirs autoritaires, les veules qui s'en accommodent, les artistes complaisants, l'absence imbécile de doute. Moscou, années 1930, le stalinisme est tout puissant, l'austérité ronge la vie et les âmes, les artistes sont devenus serviles et l'athéisme est proclamé par l'État. C'est dans ce contexte que le diable décide d'apparaître et de semer la pagaille bouleversant les notions de bien, de mal, de vrai, de faux.

C'est à la brillante cour des Valois que se noue et se joue la passion de la princesse de Clèves et du duc de Nemours. Passion tacite, et qui ne s'exprime longtemps que par des signes : un portrait dérobé, la couleur d'un vêtement au tournoi, la soudaine émotion d'un visage. Passion tragique, aussi, dont la mort est la conséquence imprévue.

Issue de la bourgeoisie, Emma Bovary est élevée dans un couvent, où elle fera son "éducation sentimentale" en lisant les œuvres romantiques à la mode. Son mari, Charles Bovary, ne ressemble en rien aux amants mystérieux et délicats de ses lectures : c'est un officier de santé qui exerce dans un village normand où Emma, confrontée à la réalité de la vie quotidienne, va peu à peu perdre pied.

"Je veux vous expliquer comment une famille, un petit groupe d'êtres, se comporte dans une société, en s'épanouissant pour donner naissance à dix, à vingt individus, qui paraissent, au premier coup d'oeil, profondément dissemblables, mais que l'analyse montre intimement liés les uns aux autres. L'hérédité a ses lois, comme la pesanteur." Emile Zola.

Un enregistrement exceptionnel : les cinq volumes des "Misérables", un des plus grands romans de la littérature française, enfin disponibles en livre audio. Jean Valjean, Cosette, les Thénardier, Gavroche, ou encore Javert sont autant de noms qui résonnent au-delà de l'histoire qui les a fait naître. Ces misérables sont décrits à la fois comme des archétypes du genre humain, mais aussi comme les produits d'une société génératrice de pauvreté, d'ignorance et de désespoir.

Les bouleversements de la première moitié du vingtième siècle - révolutions et guerres meurtrières, génocides, cracks économiques sans précédents - ont profondément transformé les bases même de la pensée européenne. Jusque là conquérante, positive, défrichant sans relâche ni lassitude les territoires de la pensée ou les derniers mystères du monde, elle se met à douter d'elle même et plus encore du sens même de l'existence.

When mystery author D. B. Ziegler is late delivering her book, Abi Schore steps in to help. Surely she can give her favorite author moral support over the holiday break and get the manuscript to her boss at Tea & Sympathy Publishing in time for the new year. When Abi shows up on Ms. Ziegler’s doorstep bearing holiday treats, she’s met by the author’s handsome grandson Dov, who reveals a startling plot twist. His grandmother isn’t able to finish the book and Dov promised he’d complete it so fans won’t be disappointed—a task that’s harder than he ever imagined.

And she certainly never knew that her medical school earned the nickname Dead Med thanks to the tragic history of students overdosing on illegal drugs.

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.
