Modern Classics Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter (Penguin Modern Classics)
A superb autobiography by one of the great literary figures of the twentieth century, Memoirs of a Dutiful Daughter offers an intimate picture of growing up in a bourgeois French family, rebelling as an adolescent against the conventional expectations of her class, and striking out on her own with an intellectual and existential ambition exceedingly rare in a young woman in the 1920s. Simone de Beavoir describes her early life, from her birth in Paris in 1908 to her student days at the Sorbonne, where she met Jean-Paul sartre - 'the dream-companion I had longed for since I was fifteen'.
Lettres de prison de Nelson Mandela
Arrêté en 1962 par le gouvernement de l'apartheid d'Afrique du Sud, Nelson Mandela a passé vingt-sept ans en prison. Au cours de ces 10 052 jours de détention, il fut un épistolier prolifique, écrivant à ses compagnons de lutte, aux gouvernements officiels, mais aussi à sa femme Winnie, à ses cinq enfants et, plus tard, à ses petits-enfants. Les lettres choisies dans ce livre offrent le portrait le plus intime qu'on ait lu de Nelson Mandela et un aperçu exceptionnel sur la façon dont il a vécu son isolement. Elles révèlent l'héroïsme d'un homme qui a refusé tout compromis sur ses valeurs, l'humanité de l'une des plus grandes figures du XXe siècle. Édité par Sahm Venter Préface de Zamaswasi Dlamini-Mandela About the Author Révolutionnaire anti-apartheid, Nelson Mandela (1918-2013) a été le premier président élu démocratiquement en Afrique du Sud, de 1994 à 1999. Il a reçu le prix Nobel de la Paix en 1993.

Educated
Tara Westover grew up preparing for the End of Days, watching for the sun to darken, for the moon to drip as if with blood. She spent her summers bottling peaches and her winters rotating emergency supplies, hoping that when the World of Men failed, her family would continue on, unaffected.She hadn’t been registered for a birth certificate. She had no school records because she’d never set foot in a classroom, and no medical records because her father didn’t believe in doctors or hospitals. According to the state and federal government, she didn’t exist.As she grew older, her father became more radical, and her brother, more violent. At sixteen Tara decided to educate herself. Her struggle for knowledge would take her far from her Idaho mountains, over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge. Only then would she wonder if she’d travelled too far. If there was still a way home.EDUCATED is an account of the struggle for self-invention. It is a tale of fierce family loyalty, and of the grief that comes with the severing of the closest of ties. With the acute insight that distinguishes all great writers, from her singular experience Westover has crafted a universal coming-of-age story that gets to the heart of what an education is and what it offers: the perspective to see one's life through new eyes, and the will to change it.
