Vanity Fair
William Makepeace Thackeray's classic tale of class, society, and corruption, soon to be an Amazon mini-series starring Olivia Cooke
No one is better equipped in the struggle for wealth and worldly success than the alluring and ruthless Becky Sharp, who defies her impoverished background to clamber up the class ladder. Her sentimental companion Amelia, however, longs only for caddish soldier George. As the two heroines make their way through the tawdry glamour of Regency society, battles—military and domestic—are fought, fortunes made and lost. The one steadfast and honourable figure in this corrupt world is Dobbin with his devotion to Amelia, bringing pathos and depth to Thackeray's gloriously satirical epic of love and social adventure.

After eighteen years as a political prisoner in the Bastille the aging Dr Manette is finally released and reunited with his daughter in England. There two very different men, Charles Darnay, an exiled French aristocrat, and Sydney Carton, a disreputable but brilliant English lawyer, become enmeshed through their love for Lucie Manette.

Rifqa
Each day after school, Mohammed El-Kurd’s grandmother welcomed him at the door of his home with a bouquet of jasmine. Her name was Rifqa—she was older than Israel itself and an icon of Palestinian resilience. With razor-sharp wit and glistening moral clarity, El-Kurd lays bare the brutality of Israeli settler colonialism. His poems trace Rifqa’s exile from Haifa to his family’s current dispossession in Sheikh Jarrah, Jerusalem, exposing the cyclical and relentless horror of the Nakba. El-Kurd’s debut collection definitively shows that the Palestinian struggle is a revolution, until victory.
Harmony
From TikTok phenomenon Whitney Hanson, a brand-new collection of poems exploring the cadences of love, loss, grief, and healing
i am finally finding a balance,
a great harmony
between the loss
and the love,
between who i was
and who i have become
In this exquisite poetry collection, Whitney Hanson, chronicles the loss of a loved one, tracing the progression of grief and healing through the lens of music.
We each begin with a simple note, but as life progresses, we’re led to the next note, and the next—all of which combine to form the melody of a song and a life. As life becomes more complicated and complex, we find that loss, grief, and heartache can muffle our music, making the world go silent.
But as Whitney’s poems show, all of these rests and pauses in the music are part of the composition of life, and it is only by moving through the variations that we can find the harmony and grace that come with healing.

When Shadows Fall
A hundred times a hundred seasons have passed since the Goddess banished the Small Gods to the sky, stripped them of their power, and erased their names from history.
Cast out but not forgotten, they bide their time awaiting the opportunity to exact their revenge.
While exploring a forgotten chamber, Prince Teryk and Princess Danya uncover an arcane scroll that speaks of impossible things--a barren mother, a man from across the sea, and the return of the Small Gods. After discovering the prophecy, Teryk believes himself the one chosen to save the kingdom, but Danya isn't so sure.
Despite his sister's doubts, Teryk sets out on a dangerous quest to unlock the secrets of the scroll, risking everything to prove his worth to their father, the king. As he delves deeper into the prophecy, unaware of the powerful forces he's set in motion, he discovers his destiny may not be what he expected and his fight for the kingdom's salvation may cost him more than he ever imagined.
As the prince questions everything he thought he knew about himself, his destiny, and the Small Gods, will he be able to save all he holds dear, or will his quest for glory cost him everything?

Cryptopians
The story of the idealists, technologists, and opportunists fighting to bring cryptocurrency to the masses.
In their short history, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have gone through booms, busts, and internecine wars, recently reaching a market valuation of more than $2 trillion. The central promise of crypto endures—vast fortunes made from decentralized networks not controlled by any single entity and not yet regulated by many governments.
The recent growth of crypto would have been all but impossible if not for a brilliant young man named Vitalik Buterin and his creation: Ethereum. In this book, Laura Shin takes readers inside the founding of this novel cryptocurrency network, which enabled users to launch their own new coins, thus creating a new crypto fever. She introduces readers to larger-than-life characters like Buterin, the Web3 wunderkind; his short-lived CEO, Charles Hoskinson; and Joe Lubin, a former Goldman Sachs VP who became one of crypto’s most well-known billionaires. Sparks fly as these outsized personalities fight for their piece of a seemingly limitless new business opportunity.
This fascinating book shows the crypto market for what it really is: a deeply personal struggle to influence the coming revolution in money, culture, and power.

Yellowface
Authors June Hayward and Athena Liu were supposed to be twin rising stars: same year at Yale, same debut year in publishing. But Athena's a cross-genre literary darling, and June didn't even get a paperback release. Nobody wants stories about basic white girls, June thinks.
So when June witnesses Athena's death in a freak accident, she acts on impulse: she steals Athena's just-finished masterpiece, an experimental novel about the unsung contributions of Chinese laborers to the British and French war efforts during World War I.
So what if June edits Athena's novel and sends it to her agent as her own work? So what if she lets her new publisher rebrand her as Juniper Song--complete with an ambiguously ethnic author photo? Doesn't this piece of history deserve to be told, whoever the teller? That's what June claims, and the New York Times bestseller list seems to agree.
But June can't get away from Athena's shadow, and emerging evidence threatens to bring June's (stolen) success down around her. As June races to protect her secret, she discovers exactly how far she will go to keep what she thinks she deserves.
With its totally immersive first-person voice, Yellowface takes on questions of diversity, racism, and cultural appropriation not only in the publishing industry but the persistent erasure of Asian-American voices and history by Western white society. R. F. Kuang's novel is timely, razor-sharp, and eminently readable.

Oliver Twist
Part of Penguin's beautiful hardback Clothbound Classics series, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith, these delectable and collectible editions are bound in high-quality colourful, tactile cloth with foil stamped into the design. The story of the orphan Oliver, who runs away from the workhouse only to be taken in by a den of thieves, shocked readers when it was first published. Dickens's tale of childhood innocence beset by evil depicts the dark criminal underworld of a London peopled by vivid and memorable characters - the arch-villain Fagin, the artful Dodger, the menacing Bill Sikes and the prostitute Nancy. Combining elements of Gothic Romance, the Newgate Novel and popular melodrama, Dickens created an entirely newkind of fiction, scathing in its indictment of a cruel society, and pervaded by an unforgettable sense of threat and mystery.

Le syndrome du bocal
Tout allait bien. Un bonheur tranquille. Une nuit de septembre 2005, Claude Pinault se réveille avec une douleur violente. Une otite ? Il connaît pour en avoir subi plusieurs dizaines. Mais, le matin, il est incapable de se lever. Son corps ne lui obéit plus. Il est comme enfermé à l’intérieur d’une machine déréglée, prisonnier d’un « bocal ». Les médecins lui donnent le nom de sa terrible maladie : le « syndrome Guillain Barré » qui affecte les nerfs périphériques. Dans la plupart des cas, elle est mortelle.C’est le début d’une longue descente aux enfers, d’un véritable calvaire. Devenu un objet que manipulent les médecins et les infirmières, le malade est séparé de sa propre vie. Pressentiment ? Il avait beaucoup aimé le livre de Jean-Dominique Bauby, Le Scaphandre et le papillon. Epargné finalement, émerveillé d’avoir rejoint le monde des vivants, il a voulu témoigner à son tour. On devine en le lisant ce qui a contribué à sa survie : un humour formidable comme une revanche sur le malheur.From the Back CoverJusque-là, tout allait bien pour Claude Pinault...Une nuit, une otite violente le réveille.Au matin, sa vie bascule.En quelques heures, il se retrouve tétraplégique.Enfermé à l'intérieur de son corps qui ne répond plus, prisonnier d'un « bocal », il apprend le nom de sa terrible maladie : le syndrome de Guillain-Barré. Une maladie rare qui affecte les nerfs périphériques et qui peut conduire à la mort.Commence alors pour lui une longue descente aux enfers, faite d'humiliations et de désespoirs.Avec une atteinte aussi grave, on lui pronostique qu'il ne pourra plus marcher ni bouger, juste souffrir.Devenu du jour au lendemain une simple poupée de chiffon manipulée par une multitude d'infirmières, Claude Pinault s'acharne pourtant à vivre. Lui qui avait tant aimé le livre de Jean-Dominique Bauby, Le Scaphandre et le papillon, il engage un étonnant combat pour redevenir un « homme-debout ».Il nous en livre aujourd'hui un témoignage saisissant. Une formidable revanche sur la vie, racontée avec un humour décapant et un style remarquable.About the AuthorClaude Pinault est né le 19 novembre 1950 à Orléans.

Le nouveau totem : petites chroniques du cerveau
Voici une introduction attrayante au domaine souvent ésotérique du cerveau, de son fonctionnement normal comme de ses maladies, sous forme de brèves chroniques. Organisées par grands thèmes, ces chroniques commencent par nous mener à la rencontre des fondateurs de la neurologie et de la neurochirurgie.Elles abordent les découvertes fondamentales du neurone ou des neurotransmetteurs, et montrent comment l’imagerie cérébrale contemporaine a transformé la compréhension des comportements. Divers épisodes de l’histoire de la neurologie permettent une approche simple de ces phénomènes complexes que sont le langage, le mouvement ou la mémoire.À partir de cas individuels et de situations imaginaires, comme une rencontre entre Descartes et Spinoza ou une leçon d’anatomie à la Salpêtrière au XIXe siècle, l’auteur aborde des débats aussi anciens que la place de l’âme dans le cerveau ou aussi actuels que la spécialisation fonctionnelle de certaines aires du cortex cérébral. Les questions philosophiques de l’intelligence et de la conscience, comme celles de l’éthique clinique en neurologie, concluent l’ouvrage.Écouter l'entrevue à Radio-Canada avec Yanick Villedieu : http://www.radio-canada.ca/audio-video/pop.shtml#urlMedia=http://www.radio-canada.ca/Medianet/2011/CBF/LesAnneeslumiere201111131305_4.asxAbout the AuthorPatrick Davous est docteur en médecine et neurologue.
