Résumé de l'éditeur:

Les vitamines du bonheur est un recueil de douze nouvelles considéré comme le chef d'œuvre de l'auteur. Il nous fait vivre des tranches de vie intemporelles, loin des clichés du rêve américain.

"Tout le monde rêve. Si tu ne rêvais pas, tu deviendrais fou. Jai lu des trucs là-dessus. Cest une soupape. Les gens rêvent quand ils dorment. Ou alors, ils deviennent dingues. Mais moi, quand je rêve, je rêve de vitamines. Tu comprends ce que je te dis ?"

Riepilogo Editore:

Tokyo nell'immaginario occidentale è un ossimoro. Ipercontemporaneità e ipertradizione, computer e animismo, grattacieli antisismici e tempietti shinto. In mezzo a questi specchi, il cibo. Che in Giappone ha a che fare con lo spirito, con la bellezza e con un gusto misterioso, l'umami. Per capire tutto questo c'è bisogno di qualcuno che ti prenda per mano: ci sono una ragazza gentile ed evanescente; un anziano dal sorriso da rana e il signor Otsuka, che naturalmente è un gatto. E va matto per i mochi.

Titre: Titus n'aimait pas Bérénice

Résumé de l'éditeur:

À propos de ce titre

Prix Médicis 2015.

Titus est empereur de Rome, Bérénice, reine de Palestine. Ils vivent et s'aiment au Ier siècle après Jésus-Christ. Racine, entre autres, raconte leur histoire au XVIIe siècle. Mais cette histoire est actuelle : le Titus d'aujourd'hui quitte Bérénice dans un café. Dans les jours qui suivent, Bérénice décide de revenir à la source, de lire tout Racine, de chercher à comprendre ce qu'il a été, un janséniste, un bourgeois, un courtisan. Comment un homme comme lui a-t-il pu écrire une histoire comme ça ?

Entre Port-Royal et Versailles, Racine devient le partenaire d'une convalescence où affleure la seule vérité qui vaille : si Titus la quitte, c'est qu'il ne l'aime pas comme elle l'aime.

Elsa Lepoivre nous entraîne sur les pas d'une jeune femme d'aujourd'hui qui trouve dans le Grand Siècle les mots pour exprimer sa souffrance amoureuse. Une lecture sensible et mélodieuse.

Title: The Children

Narrator: Jane Nolan

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 36 mins

Language: English

Release date: 06-07-16

Publisher's Summary:

When their father is critically injured, foreign correspondent Mandy and her siblings return home. Mandy's head is filled with terror and war, and her homecoming only heightens her disconnection from ordinary life.

Cathy, her younger sister, has stayed in contact with her parents, unlike their brother Stephen who, has distanced himself from the family for years. In the hospital the children sit, struggling to connect with their emotions, their past and each other. Finally the pressure intensifies and builds to a climax of devastating force.

Critic Reviews:

"Approached with the sensitivity and acuity that is Wood's strength...remarkable in her forensic abilities.... Wood puts an unusually compassionate, hopeful spin on the media's sensationalist practices. The Children confirms her as a captivating, questing writer whose work is well worth watching." (The Weekend Australian)

Publisher's Summary:

Rosa has arrived in London from Poland to look for her younger brother, Mikhail. He is supposed to be staying with their English father, but when she visits the house she finds it's locked up, and there's no sign of either of them.

Stef is running away from her boyfriend, Oliver. Frightened, friendless and far from her family, she needs somewhere to hide. All three find refuge at 11 Bellevue Gardens. Here its owner, Leonie, once herself found sanctuary and now opens her house to others in need.

Critic Reviews:

"A richly emotional story, suspenseful and romantic, but unflinching in its portrayal of the dreadful reality and legacy of war." (Sunday Mirror on A Week in Paris)

Members Reviews:

Multiple characters linked by a house

Would you listen to The House on Bellevue Gardens again? Why?

No, once was enough.

What was one of the most memorable moments of The House on Bellevue Gardens?

I can't pick a particular moment, each character has their own back stories and personal crises.

Which character as performed by Helen Lloyd was your favourite?

This would probably be Leonie as she is the link between all the other residents of 11 Bellevue Gardens.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Nothing comes to mind which is probably an indication that this wasn't one of my favourite Audible books.

Any additional comments?

I usually enjoy Rachel Hore's books more than this one. Possibly this was because there were too many characters. The link is the house in London but even the house itself didn't win me over, I didn't feel the descriptions gave the house a character of its own.

Not for those who enjoy action packed adventures

Not such good character portrayals as in other books I have read by this author. Quite a quaint little story, with threads of the lives of different characters running through the narrative. The narrator put unusual inflections in her delivery.

Title: Conrad & Eleanor

Author: Jane Rogers

Narrator: Lisa Coleman

Format: Unabridged

Length: 9 hrs and 58 mins

Language: English

Release date: 06-02-16

Publisher: Audible Studios

Genres: Fiction, Contemporary

Publisher's Summary:

When Conrad fails to return from a science conference abroad, Eleanor's first thought is one of relief; he might finally have discovered her affair. Or perhaps he's simply given up on their marriage, tired of having the less successful career. As the days pass and his absence in the family fold grows stronger, Eleanor begins to makes sense of what has happened to their lives to get them to this point.

Leaving his family in Manchester to scrabble for clues, unsure of their feelings towards him, Conrad loses himself in the cold, foggy streets of Bologna. Ill, confused, and desperately trying to avoid becoming a whistle-blower by a blackmailer, he revisits the stages of his long marriage to El, from their early happiness to the grief and anger he now feels.

As Conrad and Eleanor examine their marriage, they move closer to an understanding of what it is that matters most to each of them.

Promted by Edinburgh Book Festival 2016

I only downloaded this book as I will be in the audience when the author is on at Edinburgh Book Festival. I opted to go to this as a 'light hearted entertaining filler-in', as most of the other performances I have tickets for have quite serious political themes. How wrong I was!! This book is not as I originally thought - a shallow piece of easy listening fiction, what I would class as a 'holiday read'. It is a well researched, thought provoking book which would make a great read for any Book Club and I am sure inspire loads of interesting discussion. I genuinely struggled at times to listen to the descriptive passages on animal rights and suffering - it appears to be so well researched and written. Short of one star because the Amazon review implied it was a romantic novel, not the in depth study on morality it turned out to be, with an interesting fictional marital plot to boot. Looking forward to meeting the author in a few weeks in Edinburgh when my question will be - how accurate is the animal research writing - or is that as fictional as the characters?

Bland!

What will your next listen be?

End of Watch, Stephen King

Any additional comments?

Bear in mind that my review is based only on the first five chapters. I found those to be uninteresting, boring, bland. I will be returning it.
