Give Me Room to Move My Feet – Livre neuf
Livre en anglais – In 100 thought-provoking textually original poems, Mildred Kiconco Barya explores elements of time and space on the landscapes of memory, observation and experience at individual points and collective levels. The poet uses motion as a connecting thread for the seven parts of human experiences and livelihoods – revolving lives, stormy heart, before the sun sinks, the pain of tenderness, shame has a place, the shape of dreams, and until the last breath is drawn – to herald an inspiring collection of maturity and tenderness.

We need to talk about Ross
En anglais – Ross O’Carroll-Kelly is many things to many people. But ten years after he lifted the Leinster Schools Senior Cup, Ireland’s most beloved rogue remains one of its most misunderstood figures. His accomplishments on the rugby field – and in the bedroom – remain the stuff of legend, but the truth about him remains hidden by the accretion of myth. Now, for the first time, the lid is lifted on the enigma that is South Dublin’s most eligible married man. In more than a hundred interviews with his family and friends – those who’ve loved him, hated him and slept with him – the first ever composite portrait of the Celtic Tiger’s most famous cub emerges. From the mother who didn’t want him to the father who wanted him too much, from the friends who shared his misadventures to the women who shared his bed – or, failing that, a back alley or bus shelter – this searingly honest biography fills in all the blanks in the life of the self-styled Cock of Foxrock.
Une école politique affirme sans sourire que le repos dominical est désuet voire néfaste en ces temps de crise économique.Or l’analyse des conséquences sociales de l’extension de l’ouverture des magasins le dimanche, démontre que cela nourrirait précisément les moteurs de la crise mondiale que nous traversons. Examinant les conséquences les plus concrètes comme les effets à long terme, Michel Fauquier appelle à une réflexion qui ne soit pas menée au nom des seuls impératifs économiques, mais qui prenne en compte le véritable intérêt humain.
