Actes Sud-Papiers, 1999

Full Range Of Emotions
Though I've only read the original, I highly recommend Bel-Ami! This book is a treat. I found it quite a fast read at 400 pages because I simply devoured it; the characters, in spite (or maybe because) of all their flaws and weaknesses, are so engaging you'll became so involved that you'll hardly be able to put it down. Maupassant has a way of conveying the moods of the book to the reader that ...

Woyzeck

Actes Sud-Papiers, 1992

Fast-Paced and Gripping
(I always wanted to say that.) Woyzeck is a designer's nightmare but an actor's dream: a tragedy of immediate imagery, almost written for the MTV generation. Scenes that last at most two pages flicker around archetypes like the overbearing Major and the menacing Doctor, while the play's more human characters find themselves caught in between. There are searingly tragic moments (as befits ...

Don Delillo

your culture or mine?
If you examine Mr. Delillo's body of work as a whole, each piece plays a part in defining his question: Where/how do we find/create meaning in contemporary society? You (or I, on another day) may disagree with my supposition, and to be fair if his work can be pegged to a central premise, it is likely a tad more subtle and complex, but I think it is a good place to begin. In Valparaiso, Delillo ...

Les liaisons dangereuses

Christopher Hampton, Pierre-Ambroise-François Choderlos de Laclos

Actes Sud-Papiers, 1992

A wicked tale
I think it was Kierkegaard who advised to be aware of entangling alliances. The web of sin in this book is masterfully woven as letters to frame-up an epistolary novel in which each character's letters speak volumes about the characters themselves. The novel was written in the same period as Rousseau in the Napoleonic era, when the novel as a genre was relatively young. Valmont is the penultimate ...

Therese
I read the english version of this book and was completely satisfied. It kept me drawn in throughout the entire book, which is must for me. I stayed focused and was happy with the amount of detail Zola provides. I was so pleased with the english version, so I decided to try the french verson!!!

Vercors

Actes-Sud-Papiers, 1990

C'est une histoire de la réalite de la deuxième guerre.
Moi, je ne parle pas bien français, mais j'ai lu ce livre, et je l'ai bien compris. C'est un livre de puissance et de vérité. On se forcera de voir la deuxème guerre avec les yeux d'un soldat d'Allemagne. Il adore la France, il parle la langue, et toute sa vie, il adorait la culture et les gens. Il croit sincèrement que l'Allemange et la France se marieront et l'union sera incroyable. ...

African Studies in Social Movements and Democracy (Actes-Sud Papiers,)

Codesria, 2005

Trade unions, burial societies, students, religious and gender movements, riots and mafias. Not to mention class. The kaleidoscope of African social movements is complex and broad. But their histories have strong common threads - the experience of past oppression and the constant struggle for an identity that will encompass survival. How have they contributed to the nature of African civil society and the formation of democracy? The chapters are ...
