Abc X 3: English - Español - François
by Marthe JocelynFrom airplane/avión/avion to zigzag/zigzag/zigzag, Marthe Jocelyn and Tom Slaughter have created a unique ABC for the very young. The book works perfectly in three languages, English, Spanish, and French (English, Español, and Français). In each case, deceptively simple paper cuts will delight the eye while young readers explore words in three languages. The book has been carefully constructed to accommodate each language, including the letters which occur in Spanish, but not in English or French. Earlier collaborations by Tom Slaughter and Marthe Jocelyn have received raves from critics. This new addition to their library is yet another excellent introduction to modern art, to words, and this time to the fun of languages

Le Dodécaèdre: ou Douze cadres à géométrie variable (Traduction littéraire)
by Paul GlennonUn jeune garçon avale les pages de cinq livres dans lesquels croit-il, se trouve le code qui pourrait permettre à un capitaine et à ses acolytes de retracer son père disparu. Afin de sauver sa vie, un explorateur se voit contraint de raconter à la tribu amérindienne qui le retient prisonnier les histoires qu’il connaît, qu’il crée ou qu’il combine. Une femme ravissante se plaît à réinventer sa propre histoire lors des soirées mondaines. Perdu sur les glaces à la dérive dans l’Atlantique Nord, un autre explorateur est tourment. Par les sempiternelles questions d’un enfant. Mais ce jeune garçon n’est-il pas celui qui a englouti des livres dans la bibliothèque ? Et cette femme qui joue des rôles n’est-elle pas le personnage d’un récit concocté par la machine à histoire mentionnée dans l’article d’une revue spécifique? Dans Le Dodécaèdre ou Douze cadres à géométrie variable, Paul Glennon manie douze genres littéraires (roman policier, journalisme d’enquête, récit d’aventure…), insufflant à chacun une part d’étrangeté pour créer douze univers distincts réunis dans une structure finement ciselée. Pour la version française de ce livre où chaque histoire apporte un nouvel éclairage sur celles qui l’avoisinent, douze traducteurs se sont livrés à leur tour au jeu des cadres à géométrie variable.
Two Stories/Deux nouvelles: A Dual-Language Book
by Stendhal Stanley AppelbaumIn writing these two ardently romantic and turbulent tales, Stendhal delved deep into old Italian narratives and into his own impassioned heart. "Vanina Vanini" and "L'abbesse de Castro" abound in the qualities for which the French author remains enduringly popular: his strong-willed, impulsive characters; his dry wit and keen irony; and the sweeping drama of his historical settings. Originally published in the Revue de Paris in 1829, "Vanina Vanini" traces the fortunes of an aristocrat's daughter who falls in love with a wounded soldier, and prefigures Stendhal's superb novel, The Red and the Black, which appeared two years later. "L'abbesse de Castro," published in 1839 under a pseudonym in the prestigious Revue des Deux Mondes, was reputedly derived from Roman and Florentine source manuscripts. Consisting chiefly of Stendhal's own invention, it recounts the illicit liaison and subsequent trial of an abbess.The only dual-language edition of these stories, this book features an informative introduction and ample footnotes, making it not only a pleasure to read but also a valuable learning and teaching aid for students and teachers of French literature.

L'île du cormoran blanc
by Alain Beauchemin Roger Audibert Josée Gladu Sandra GuimontPeu de temps après son arrivée à l’île Brion, William fut témoin d’une scène étrange : l’apparition d’un navire à trois mâts, suivie de l’approche d’une barque dirigée par un équipage de marins d’une autre époque. Quand l’embarcation atteignit le rivage, une jeune femme et son jeune bébé furent débarqués et laissés seuls, alors que l’équipage regagnait le large. William courut à la rencontre de la femme esseulée sans jamais la retrouver, comme si les portes d’un lointain passé s’étaient subitement refermées. De retour de voyage, il entreprit des recherches pour découvrir que pendant le Grand Dérangement, une jeune Acadienne déportée avec toutes les femmes et les enfants de son village fomenta une révolte à bord d’un navire anglais. Mais sa tentative héroïque échoua et elle fut abandonnée seule avec son enfant sur l’île Brion en guise de châtiment. Poussé par un étrange désir de mener plus avant son investigation, William en viendra à lever le voile sur une incroyable destinée.
Uncommon Carriers
by John McpheeWhat John McPhee's books all have in common is that they are about real people in real places. Here, at his adventurous best, he is out and about with people who work in freight transportation. Over the past eight years, John McPhee has spent considerable time in the company of people who work in freight transportation. Uncommon Carriers is his sketchbook of them and of his journeys with them. He rides from Atlanta to Tacoma alongside Don Ainsworth, owner and operator of a sixty-five-foot, eighteen-wheel chemical tanker carrying hazmats. McPhee attends ship-handling school on a pond in the foothills of the French Alps, where, for a tuition of $15,000 a week, skippers of the largest ocean ships refine their capabilities in twenty-foot scale models. He goes up the "tight-assed" Illinois River on a "towboat" pushing a triple string of barges, the overall vessel being "a good deal longer than the Titanic." And he travels by canoe up the canal-and-lock commercial waterways traveled by Henry David Thoreau and his brother, John, in a homemade skiff in 1839. Uncommon Carriers is classic work by McPhee, in prose distinguished, as always, by its author's warm humor, keen insight, and rich sense of human character.
Vers un Pays-Lumiere
by Bruce W. PoweB.W. Powe’s visionary work of political philosophy dares to re-imagine Canada. First conceived in 1993, this fully revised, expanded, updated edition, complete with an inspired new introduction that considers Canada in a post-9/11 context, is a landmark book that has become a classic text for understanding the work-in-progress that is Canada. Countering George Grant’s pessimistic Lament for a Nation, which defined the intellectual climate in Canada for decades, Powe argues that our country is in fact a completely original model of what an enlightened polity might be for the 21st century. Here is a passionately inspired portrait of Canada as a communication state – a counter-nation of loose ties and subtle associations where dialogue, ideas, debate and the exchange of information is the currency that holds us lightly together. Towards a Canada of Light points to the urgent realization of a new and liberating way of what it means to be Canadian.
