The Bourne ultimatum
En Anglais – The world’s two deadliest spies in the ultimate showdown. At a small-town carnival two men, each mysteriously summoned by telegram, witness a bizarre killing. The telegrams are signed Jason Bourne. Only they know Bourne’s true identity and understand the telegram is really a message from Bourne’s mortal enemy, Carlos, known also as the Jackal, the world’s deadliest and most elusive terrorist. And furthermore, they know that the Jackal wants: a final confrontation with Bourne. Now David Webb, professor of Oriental studies, husband, and father, must do what he hoped he would never have to do again—assume the terrible identity of Jason Bourne. His plan is simple: to infiltrate the politically and economically Medusan group and use himself as bait to lure the cunning Jackal into a deadly trap—a trap from which only one of them will escape.

Alaska
En Anglais In this sweeping epic of the northernmost American frontier, James A. Michener guides us through Alaska’s fierce terrain and history, from the long-forgotten past to the bustling present. As his characters struggle for survival, Michener weaves together the exciting high points of Alaska’s story: its brutal origins; the American acquisition; the gold rush; the tremendous growth and exploitation of the salmon industry; the arduous construction of the Alcan Highway, undertaken to defend the territory during World War II. A spellbinding portrait of a human community fighting to establish its place in the world, Alaska traces a bold and majestic saga of the enduring spirit of a land and its people.
L’Amour et le pouvoir
110 avant J.-C.: la République est à son apogée et, pourtant, elle est déjà minée par l’argent, la cupidité et les luttes de factions. Deux hommes vont se lever. Deux hommes d’exception, avec, chacun, l’ambition de devenir le «Premier parmi les Romains», distinction accordée à de très rares occasions depuis les origines de la République. Aucun des deux, cependant, ne dispose à priori des moyens pour parvenir à ses fins. Marius a contre lui ses origines: c’est un notable enrichi et il n’appartient donc pas à l’une ou l’autre des grandes lignées patriciennes dont les représentants dominent le Sénat et gouvernent la cité depuis la chute de la monarchie. À l’opposé, Sylla est de naissance aristocratique, mais il a contre lui d’être un homme désargenté qui a décider d’oublier sa condition dans la recherche effrénée des plaisirs. De tous les plaisirs.
