        Le mal du pays est un art oublié

        by Joël Pourbaix

        La rédemption est une utopie et pourtant elle guide les pas fragiles, alors que les lieux réinventent celui qui les regarde. Après Montréal, le pays du Pontiac délivre sa géographie secrète. Une maison, une falaise, un arbre, des contrées ruinées et d’autres transfigurées; les jours renaissent sous le voile des paysages et des jeunes années. L’esprit des lieux soulève les vérités d’un autre monde, une faille d’où surgit une langue maternelle et impensable. Pour en apprendre davantage sur cet éditeur, cliquez ici : http://bit.ly/2NpIFP2

As the plague takes its toll, an unexpected reconciliation gradually takes place.Their relationships with their loved ones also change. A couple of overworked caregivers, a distraught garage owner, and an emotional fortune teller experience with them the shock that the plague imposes on human relationships.

        Forget Atlas

        by Teresa Ibars

        Atles de l’oblit parla d’uns racons de la memòria, del paisatge i de les emocions que, com un quadre impressionista farcit de petites pinzellades, han configurat una percepció de la realitat i una manera de ser. Mitjançant un viatge que porta l’autora al cor d’un territori, el Baix Segre, i a la vida d’uns personatges, potser ja majoritàriament oblidats, en aquest llibre es fa un exercici voluntari de recordar per comprendre. Perquè quan una persona deixa de viure en un lloc i, per tant, engega un cert camí d’oblit, o veu com son pare comença a oblidar per culpa d’una malaltia que se’l menja, pot ser que aquesta persona adquireixi la clara consciència que tornar sempre resulta impossible i quan hom té aquesta certesa tan sols queda entomar qui som i on som de nou.

Right behind his steps, is the Second, a prodigious warrior, crueller and fiercer than every minion revolving around them.
