        A L'OMBRE DU CUMULONIMBUS

        Témoignage d’une franco-israélienne … Broché

        by Francoise Hoffmann

        Que savez-vous vraiment d’Israël ? Depuis 1948, ce jeune Etat connu pour avoir fait refleurir le désert et intégré des millions de rescapés de la Shoah et ceux fuyant les vents froids de l’antisémitisme, est aujourd’hui à la pointe du progrès et malgré tout fait l’objet de reportages biaisés qui dégradent son image. La propagande palestinienne s’impose dans la bataille médiatique et gangrène les relations diplomatiques d’Israël avec nombre de chancelleries.Ce témoignage décrit les impacts d’une actualité fracassante sur la vie quotidienne à l’ombre du cumulonimbus. Ce gros nuage annonciateur d’orages dans un ciel d’azur symbolise le hiatus entre la normalité et l’enfer des violences endurées.L’auteure guide le lecteur pas à pas dans la courte Histoire d’Israël. À l’aide de faits documentés, souvent occultés, elle livre sa version des faits. Cet ouvrage répond à la nécessité de déconstruire les mythes et falsifications encryptés dans les consciences et étrangers à la vérité. Il analyse également le rôle de la Ligue Arabe dans cette vaste supercherie.La lecture de ce livre exige l’ouverture d’esprit requise pour la découverte d’un monde méconnu et attachant. Du parallèle établi entre la France et l’Etat hébreu, ressort une inimitié entre deux pays qui n’ont pas vocation à se mal aimer alors que les attentats islamistes font rage, et que des Juifs français s’installent en Israël.Francoise Hoffmann est née en France alors que ses parents pourchassés par Les lois de Vichy réussissent à survivre. De sa première visite en Israël, elle revient transformée et fera son alya avec son mari sioniste lui-aussi et leur deux enfants. Les abondantes notes consacrées aux événements dramatiques, à sa vie personnelle et à son engagement dans le travail social contribuent grandement à l’écriture de ce livre. 384 Pages, Published in 2020

        Paris-Capitale

        by Feldrik Rivat

        VINGT ANS APRÈS LA 25E HEURE, QU'EST DEVENU LE MONDE ? « À quoi sert de conter l’histoire des grands hommes du passé si nous ne pouvons pas les faire revenir à la vie ? » Il est dit que maintenant, à Paris, les tours Cuprifères grimpent jusqu’aux cieux. Que la ville flotte pour moitié dans le vent, portée par des ballons de verre. Que les morts reviennent à la vie. Il est dit que maintenant, à Paris, les savants d’antan conversent avec les savants d’aujourd’hui. Que les artistes, les penseurs, les ingénieurs de tous les temps travaillent à construire le monde de demain. Il est dit que maintenant, à Paris, des messagers d’argile soufflent la parole des anciens avant de tomber en poussière.  Les rumeurs volent, depuis les cercles polaires jusqu’aux sables libyens, mais qui, en vérité, pourra vous dire ce qui se trame à Paris-Capitale ?

        Juillet, le Nord

        by Andréane Frenette-Vallières

        La Côte-Nord, les grands déserts de toundra, la mer, l’omniprésence du vent: que font ces choses à la voix, au corps ? Comment teintent-elles le rapport à soi, mais également à l’autre ? Plus qu’une rencontre, cela devient une inscription de cette femme dans la pleine nature, à la recherche, dirait-on, de la relation la plus simple qui soit à ce qui l’entoure et la touche. La fragilité ici est brute, la solitude, induite par l’isolement, et la vastitude des lieux, extrême.Pour en apprendre davantage sur cet éditeur, cliquez ici : http://bit.ly/2LGInp5

        Tantalum is a rare, precious and highly sought-after metal. What would it tell us if it could reveal everything? Discover its adventures as it travels from the Democratic Republic of Congo where it is extracted, through Asia where it is transformed, to finally arrive in our cell phones. And after that ? What does it become? Tantalum tells us everything.

        What if tomorrow... the continuation!

        by Michel Piquemal

        Eleven short stories as striking as they are corrosive, showing the possible abuses of a world very close to ours - the world of tomorrow. What if tomorrow... humanity were to become stupid? What if tomorrow... we could spy on each other's private lives? What if tomorrow... money has an expiration date? What if tomorrow... our pets wear glasses? We grind our teeth, but always with humor. The whole thing brushes a future that looks like a misunderstanding of what is already a little bit of our worrying reality.

      • Empreinte

        by Guillaume Beaudoin

        Over the past few years, photographer Guillaume Beaudoin has visited more than 60 countries, taking aerial, landscape and underwater photos of incredible beauty and sensitivity. From sailboat hitchhiking in the islands of the South Pacific to a stint with Ocean Cleanup and time spent with the last nomadic peoples of Africa and Asia—Guillaume goes where the wind and his fancy lead him. By giving a voice to those he meets on his journey, Guillaume explores the impact of climate change and globalization on communities around the world. He also chronicles these communities’ capacity to adapt and the initiatives they’ve implemented to face today’s upheavals. This is a profoundly human book, halfway between a travelogue and a documentary, in which the author weaves a reflection about the search for meaning, our Western lifestyle and the importance of individual effort. Because all great movements begin with a single step.

        À présent, vous pouvez enterrer la mariée

        by Oren Miller

        Hyppolite Bartoli is mad with grief. His daughter is found dead on her wedding day, burnt dead with her wedding gown left pristine. Not trusting for a second the local policemen, he asks two investigators known for their talent to resolve the most uncanny cases for help.  Soon enough, the mystery darkens and death takes its toll, varying the pleasure: mass shooting, cannibalism, unexplainable fits of madness and poisoning... All of it feeding the craziest of leads and multiplying the least condemnable suspects of Monaco's good society. Is the key to the case to be found within the highest circles... or merely under the veil of the bride?

        Straight Ahead

        by Emmanuelle Rey

        Mauve, Tito and Diamond have been walking along the highway, under the scorching July sun, for the past three days. It was Mauve who decided everything, on a whim, when she realised that this time, her mom had really messed up. And, at fifteen, it was out of the question to be separated from her eight and two-year-old brothers to live with yet another rotten foster family. So the three siblings leave Montpellier and their chaotic life, closely tailed by the police. They leave to find Thierry and Martine, whose smiles and ratatouille chicken Mauve remembers fondly. They start walking straight ahead to Marseille and La Pointe Rouge, with the hope of a new life. Straight Ahead follows the singular path of Mauve and her two brothers, filled with life-altering adventures and realistic characters. Furthermore, in a series of flashbacks, Mauve tells us all about her mother—an eccentric woman who certainly doesn’t seem able to take care of her children, but who is full of love for them nonetheless. • The complexity of a mother-child relationship, when a mother’s love isn’t enough to make up for her shortcomings • The unique bond between siblings that will help them deal with life on the road • Interesting encounters and experiences — good and bad — that teach valuable life lessons
