About this listen
Et ce lointain, un peu méditerranéen, perse et indien à la fois, un peu païen, un peu chrétien et juif, et musulman dans sa forme définitive, est fait pour être entendu et dit, un peu lentement, un peu suavement. Car la gourmandise est partout dans ses récits. Gourmandise des récits qui se déroulent lentement et semblent retenir à la fois le temps et l'esprit, gourmandise de l'imaginaire toujours sollicité par un merveilleux, et gourmandise enfin de tous les sens en éveil, comme pour s'enivrer des nuits... sans sommeil.
Quelle voix, mieux que la voix de Sapho, sait se glisser dans la voix même de Shéhérazade ? Car c'est bien elle qui, tout au long de ces nuits, sait retenir l'attention de son royal époux, ainsi qu'elle captive la nôtre. Mais quel tour de force aussi ! Car non seulement Sapho est une lectrice, mais elle sait aussi que tout le charme des récits agit comme une incantation vitale. Sa narration, on ne peut l'oublier, est un combat contre le fatal arrêt de mort de toutes les femmes de Shahriar depuis qu'il a été bafoué par une trop voluptueuse sultane. Alors, la voix qui monte est une voix qui mène un doux et intense combat : celui de la persuasion, celui de toute la puissance du verbe.

Critic reviews
"Très peu de littérateurs parmi nous connaissent le Coran. Nous nous en faisons presque toujours une idée ridicule, malgré les recherches de nos véritables savants" (Voltaire, Dictionnaire philosophique).
C'est dans cette ambiance, composée à la fois de méfiance ancestrale face à une religion inconnue, trop souvent réputée ennemie, et dans un contexte plus léger et mondain de fêtes éprises d'un exotisme remis sans cesse au goût du jour par les facéties des Turqueries, que les Contes des Mille et une nuits arrivent à Paris en 1704.
Pour la première fois l'Occident découvre de véritables contes orientaux et remet en cause sa vision lointaine et imaginaire d'un monde qui, avec surprise, on le discerne bien, se révèle largement méconnu, malgré les mythiques souvenirs des croisades et de vagues récits de voyageurs.
Car il faut bien avouer qu'en Occident, le monde Ottoman est non seulement mal connu dans les raffinements de sa culture et de sa civilisation, mais bel et bien perçu comme une menace face à la Chrétienté. Le XVIème s. a vu maints et maints combats entre le Saint Empire Germanique et l'Empire Ottoman en Hongrie, car Soliman le Magnifique a étendu ses conquêtes assez loin en Europe.
Mais après sa mort en 1566, commence une longue période de déclin de l'influence turque marquée par la défaite devant Vienne en 1683, puis la perte de la Hongrie en 1687, et enfin les conséquences des traités de Passarowitz en 1718.
Dans un tel contexte de méfiance, car jusqu'en 1829 l'influence turque reste importante, il est tout à fait remarquable que la publication des contes des Mille et une Nuits ait pu autant contribuer une connaissance mêlée de curiosité pour l'Orient.

Story
Compiled by intrepid journalist Neve Pride, this archive of recordings spans the months after dragons emerged on earth, chronicling the communities that sprang up amid the destruction, the scientists, military leaders, and experts searching for a defense, and those steadfastly seeking the missing. Neve and her young daughter Bex travel among the wreckage speaking to those left behind and surviving, against all odds. Neve records everything for history, and in the hopes of locating a clue as to where the dragons came from and how one might stop them.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
Two astronomers have detected a strange, pulsing signal from deep space. Within hours, the US government goes into lockdown, restricting airspace and scrubbing scientific data. Was the signal an intercepted communication revealing alarming plans for an enemy’s military strike? Or has humanity at long last found proof of extraterrestrial life?

deux crédits pour un récit tronqué
pour deux crédits, on s'attend à l'œuvre complète. c'est dommage. la voix et le ton de sapho sont particulièrement adaptés à ces récits
