Minou a des passions exponentielles, des envies fortes, des fantasmes sans pudeur et ses humeurs débordent jusqu'au bar du coin.

me questionne, on me harcèle : "Qu'as-tu? de quoi souffres-tu? quel mal t'ai-je donc fait?" Et je suis sans paroles, je suis un animal, je suis désolée je ne peux pas. Il faut néanmoins essayer, poursuivre la conversation, reprendre pied. Me saisissant de quelques mots trop gros, j'entreprends de construire des escaliers. Des poèmes qui descendent l'escalierTu étais ma façon d'aimer: poésie (Graffiti #147)

acte politique. Une escouade de résistants poétiques se sont mis à l'œuvre dans le plus grand secret. Réunis plus ou moins télépathiquement pour une mission de la plus haute importance amusante : s'émerveiller suffisamment fort pour que le bleu de la flamme de leurs souvenirs d'enfance puisse éclairer vos nuits. Chacun d'entre eux a pris place dans l'avion en papier géant qu'ils passent leur vie à confectionner, déchirer, recoller et réinventer. Ils s'apprêtent à semer des graines d'histoires dans vos rêves. » Mathias Malzieu Parce que le livre est le moyen infaillible de garder au plus près de soi une part de merveilleux, Mathias Malzieu a donné rendez-vous à quelques-uns des artistes, créateurs, écrivains qu'il admire, autant de voix qui, entre tendresse, curiosité et nostalgie joyeuse, reviennent à cette période étonnante qu'est l'enfance.

Par Megan Fox. 2023
Megan Fox showcases her wicked humor throughout a heartbreaking and dark collection of poetry. Over the course of more than…
seventy poems Fox chronicles all the ways in which we fit ourselves into the shape of the ones we love, even if it means losing ourselves in the process. "These poems were written in an attempt to excise the illness that had taken root in me because of my silence. I've spent my entire life keeping the secrets of men, my body aches from carrying the weight of their sins. My freedom lives in these pages, and I hope that my words can inspire others to take back their happiness and their identity by using their voice to illuminate what's been buried, but not forgotten, in the darkness," says Fox. Pretty Boys Are Poisonous marks the powerful debut from one of the most well-known women of our time.

Par Elaine Aron. 2023
A groundbreaking parenting guidebook addressing the trait of "high sensitivity" in children, from the psychologist and bestselling author of The…
Highly Sensitive Person whose books have sold more than 1 million copies With the publication of The Highly Sensitive Person , pioneering psychotherapist Dr. Elaine Aron became the first person to identify the inborn trait of "high sensitivity" and to show how it affects the lives of those who possess it. In The Highly Sensitive Child, Dr. Aron shifts her focus to the 15 to 20 percent of children who are born highly sensitive—deeply reflective, sensitive to the subtle, and easily overwhelmed. These qualities can make for smart, conscientious, creative children, but also may result in shyness, fussiness, or acting out. As Dr. Aron shows in The Highly Sensitive Child , if your child seems overly inhibited, particular, or you worry that they may have a neurodevelopmental disorder, such as ADHD or autism, they may simply be highly sensitive. And raised with proper understanding and care, highly sensitive children can grow up to be happy, healthy, well-adjusted adults. Rooted in Dr. Aron’s years of experience working with highly sensitive children and their families, as well as in her original research on child temperament, The Highly Sensitive Child explores the challenges of raising an HSC; the four keys to successfully parenting an HSC; how to help HSCs thrive in a not-so-sensitive world; and how to make school and friendships enjoyable. With chapters addressing the needs of specific age groups, from newborns to teens, The Highly Sensitive Child is the ultimate resource for parents, teachers, and the sensitive children in their lives. * This audiobook edition includes a downloadable PDF of questionnaires from the bookRegard d'Annie Dillard (Contre jour)

Elle raconte avoir dessiné à répétition, durant un été, son gant de baseball. Cet exercice rappelle l'une des forces de son imaginaire, à savoir l'action du regard. Dessiner un objet, c'est se conduire à l'oubli de soi.

Par Jen Golbeck. 2023
A feel-good, comprehensive exploration of the profound bond between humans and dogs from Jen Golbeck, the "internet's dog mom" behind…
the massive social media platform The Golden Ratio , and Stacey Colino, an award-winning science writer. Dogs have been considered people's best friend for thousands of years, but never has the relationship between humans and their canine companions been as vitally important as it is today. With all of the seismic shifts in today's world, rates of anxiety and depression have been skyrocketing, and people have been turning to their dogs for solace and stability. Amidst these dire realities, something wonderful has taken shape. In the United States alone, dog adoptions doubled during the COVID-19 pandemic. As people have brought furry friends into their lives for the first time or seized this opportunity to deepen the connections they already have, they are looking to understand how owning a dog can change their lives. Now, The Purest Bond explores the benefits our dogs can have on our physical, emotional, cognitive, and social well-being, often without our realizing it. Weaving together groundbreaking research and touching real-life stories, The Purest Bond explores not just the social benefits of owning a dog but the science of how dogs improve our emotional and physical health, mental acuity, and our ability to focus and absorb information. Most importantly, they remind us of what's right in the world—love, trust, affection, playtime, fresh air, and sunshine—even when so much feels wrongAnd so this is christmas: 51 seasonally adjusted poems

Depuis l’enfance, une femme avance, se perd, se métamorphose jusqu’à la disparition, ses pieds dans le sable, ses cheveux au…
soleil, ses mains ouvertes, son corps fatigué. L’intimité de sa chambre abandonnée explose de mystère et révèle à voix basse l’histoire de ses joies et de ses douleurs. En un réseau serré d’échos poétiques, Anne Martine Parent intrique silhouettes et fantômes, constellations, forêts, villes de sable et plages en ruines. Les peaux raccommodées de feuilles mortes, les corps féminins trahis et disloqués, qui se défont et se recomposent, deviennent autant de lieux de réparation, d’horizons fulgurants qu’on échafaude en retenant son souffle.The best minds: A story of friendship, madness, and the tragedy of good intentions
Par Jonathan Rosen. 2023
"Brave and nuanced…an act of tremendous compassion and a literary triumph." — The New York Times "Immensely emotional and unforgettably…
haunting." — Wall Street Journal One of The Washington Post ’s 50 Notable Works of Nonfiction Acclaimed author Jonathan Rosen’s haunting investigation of the forces that led his closest childhood friend, Michael Laudor, from the heights of brilliant promise to the forensic psychiatric hospital where he has lived since killing the woman he loved. A story about friendship, love, and the price of self-delusion, The Best Minds explores the ways in which we understand—and fail to understand—mental illness. When the Rosens moved to New Rochelle in 1973, Jonathan Rosen and Michael Laudor became inseparable. Both children of college professors, the boys were best friends and keen competitors, and, when they both got into Yale University, seemed set to join the American meritocratic elite. Michael blazed through college in three years, graduating summa cum laude and landing a top-flight consulting job. But all wasn’t as it seemed. One day, Jonathan received the call: Michael had suffered a serious psychotic break and was in the locked ward of a psychiatric hospital. Diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, Michael was still in the hospital when he learned he'd been accepted to Yale Law School, and still battling delusions when he decided to trade his halfway house for the top law school in the country. He not only managed to graduate, but after his extraordinary story was featured in The New York Times , sold a memoir for a large sum. Ron Howard bought film rights, completing the dream for Michael and his tirelessly supportive girlfriend Carrie. But then Michael, in the grip of an unshakeable paranoid fantasy, stabbed Carrie to death with a kitchen knife and became a front-page story of an entirely different sort. The Best Minds is Jonathan Rosen's brilliant and heartbreaking account of an American tragedy. It is a story about the bonds of family, friendship, and community; the promise of intellectual achievement; and the lure of utopian solutions. Tender, funny, and harrowing by turns, at times almost unbearably sad, The Best Minds is an extreme version of a story that is tragically familiar to all too many. In the hands of a writer of Jonathan Rosen's gifts and dedication, its significance will echo widelyTdah chez l'adulte (La boîte à outils)

Par Joshua Bennett. 2023
A "rich hybrid of memoir and history" ( The New Yorker ) of the literary art form that has transformed…
the cultural landscape, by one of its influential practitioners, an award-winning poet, professor, and slam champion "Bennett…transport[s] us back to the city blocks, bars, cafes and stages these artists traversed and inhabited…an instructive text for young poets, artists or creative entrepreneurs trying to find a way to carve out a space for themselves…Shines with a refreshing dynamism." — The New York Times In 2009, when he was twenty years old, Joshua Bennett was invited to perform a spoken word poem for Barack and Michelle Obama, at the same White House "Poetry Jam" where Lin-Manuel Miranda declaimed the opening bars of a work-in-progress that would soon revolutionize American theater. That meeting is but one among many in the trajectory of Bennett's young life, as he rode the cresting wave of spoken word through the 2010s. In this book, he goes back to its roots, considering the Black Arts movement and the prominence of poetry and song in Black education; the origins of the famed Nuyorican Poets Cafe in the Lower East Side living room of the visionary Miguel Algarín, who hosted verse gatherings with legendary figures like Ntozake Shange and Miguel Piñero; the rapid growth of the "slam" format that was pioneered at the Get Me High Lounge in Chicago; the perfect storm of spoken word's rise during the explosion of social media; and Bennett's own journey alongside his older sister, whose work to promote the form helped shape spaces online and elsewhere dedicated to literature and the pursuit of human freedom. A celebration of voices outside the dominant cultural narrative, who boldly embraced an array of styles and forms and redefined what—and whom—the mainstream would include, Bennett's book illuminates the profound influence spoken word has had everywhere melodious words are heard, from Broadway to academia, from the podiums of political protest to cafés, schools, and rooms full of strangers all across the worldSelf-care for people with adhd: 100+ ways to recharge, de-stress, and prioritize you!

Par Dan Ariely. 2023
The renowned social scientist, professor, and bestselling author of Predictably Irrational delivers his most urgent and compelling book—an eye-opening exploration…
of the human side of the misinformation crisis—examining what drives otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs. Misinformation affects all of us on a daily basis—from social media to larger political challenges, from casual conversations in supermarkets, to even our closest relationships. While we recognize the dangers that misinformation poses, the problem is complex—far beyond what policing social media alone can achieve—and too often our limited solutions are shaped by partisan politics and individual interpretations of truth. In Misbelief, preeminent social scientist Dan Ariely argues that to understand the irrational appeal of misinformation, we must first understand the behavior of "misbelief"—the psychological and social journey that leads people to mistrust accepted truths, entertain alternative facts, and even embrace full-blown conspiracy theories. Misinformation, it turns out, appeals to something innate in all of us—on the right and the left—and it is only by understanding this psychology that we can blunt its effects. Grounded in years of study as well as Ariely's own experience as a target of disinformation, Misbelief is an eye-opening and comprehensive analysis of the psychological drivers that cause otherwise rational people to adopt deeply irrational beliefs. Utilizing the latest research, Ariely reveals the key elements—emotional, cognitive, personality, and social—that drive people down the funnel of false information and mistrust, showing how under the right circumstances, anyone can become a misbeliever. Yet Ariely also offers hope. Even as advanced artificial intelligence has become capable of generating convincing fake news stories at an unprecedented scale, he shows that awareness of these forces fueling misbelief make us, as individuals and as a society, more resilient to its allure. Combating misbelief requires a strategy rooted not in conflict, but in empathy. The sooner we recognize that misbelief is above all else a human problem, the sooner we can become the solution ourselves
