Par Gustave Rouger. 2006
"L'épopée d'Antar occupe une place unique dans la littérature arabe. Célèbre dans tout l'Orient, telle jadis l'Iliade en Grèce, ce…
poème s'est perpétué à travers les âges par la bouche de nombreux conteurs de profession. [...] Né d'un émir et d'une esclave noire prise dans une razzia, Antar doit vaincre tous les préjugés de la naissance et de la couleur. Bâtard, esclave et noir, mais doué d'une prodigieuse vigueur, d'une vaillance à toute épreuve, d'une éloquence forte et sauvage, d'un sens de liberté et d'une générosité sans limites, poussé par un amour chevaleresque pour sa cousine Abla, il parvient, à force de prouesses, à triompher de toutes les résistances, se fait reconnaître par son père, et, admis aux rang des nobles, épouse celle qu'il aime et devient le premier de sa tribu, qui est la première parmi les nomades de l'Arabie." -- 4e de couvA continual feast: words of comfort and celebration collected by Father Tim

Par Ntozake Shange. 2023
The Millions " Most Anticipated" Books of 2023 Never-before-seen unpublished works by award-winning American literary icon Ntozake Shange, featuring essays,…
plays, and poems from the archives of the seminal Black feminist writer who stands alongside giants like Toni Morrison and Alice Walker, curated by National Book Award winner Imani Perry with a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Tarana Burke. In the late '60s, Ntozake Shange was a student at Barnard College discovering her budding talent as a writer, publishing in her school's literary journal, and finding her unique voice. By the time she left us in 2018, Shange had scorched blazing trails across countless pages and stages, redefining genre and form as we know them, each verse, dance, and song a love letter to Black women and girls, and the community at large. Sing a Black Girl's Song is a new posthumous collection of Shange's unpublished poems, essays, and plays from throughout the life of the seminal Black feminist writer. In these pages we meet young Shange, learn the moments that inspired for colored girls who have considered suicide/when the rainbow is enuf..., travel with an eclectic family of musicians, sit on "The Couch" opposite Shange's therapist, and discover plays written after for colored girls' international success. Sing a Black Girl's Song houses, in their original form, the literary rebel's politically charged verses from the Black Arts Movement era alongside her signature tender rhythm and cadence that capture the minutia and nuance of Black life. Sing a Black Girl's Song is the continuation of a literary tradition that has bolstered generations of writers and a long-lasting gift from one of the fiercest and most highly celebrated artists of our timeHer fidelity
Par Katharine Pollock. 2022
Kathy has accidentally continued working at Rocking Donkey Records, an independent record shop in Brisbane, for fifteen years. She started…
there as a total fangirl high schooler, stayed through university, and suddenly 30 is on the horizon and she's still dealing with mansplaining music bros both at and behind the counter, and measuring her self-worth by her knowledge of Nick Cave's back catalogue. When the daily grind of working in the male-dominated record industry gets her down, Kathy finds solace in her two best friends: her fierce colleague Mel, and Alex, whom Kathy has known since preschool, a straight-laced accountant and mother of a young son.When Mel announces that she is leaving the Rocking Donkey and moving to Sydney, cracks appear in Kathy's comfortable indie bubble. Her friends are clearly moving on with their lives, while Kathy is stuck in a cycle of record store, pub, repeat. A fight with Mel and Alex makes her realise that she has internalised much of the misogyny she has experienced over the past fifteen years and that she can be more than her taste in music. In fact, it's actually okay to like Beyoncé even if Beyoncé doesn't write acoustic ballads about alcoholism...
