Le cadeau
by Julie HodgsonUne fantaisie humoristique pour les fêtes de fin d'année. Le cadeau (attention à ce que vous souhaitez) Joe est le fan numéro un de Noël. Il adore cette fête et a hâte de la passer avec sa femme, Beth, à faire ce qu'ils aiment le plus : manger des tartelettes à la viande, boire du vin chaud, rire et se blottir l'un contre l'autre pendant que la télévision diffuse It's a Wonderful Life (La vie est belle). Cependant, Beth a une idée un peu différente cette année. Elle veut passer un très mauvais moment, sinon pourquoi aurait-elle invité sa mère - la belle-mère démoniaque de l'enfer, qui déteste Noël et tout ce qui s'y rapporte ? En fait, il n'y a qu'une seule chose que la terrible belle-mère déteste plus que Noël... et c'est Joe. Heureusement, Joe a un allié dans sa guerre contre le monstre aux cheveux orange et au chewing-gum : un Père Noël de centre commercial qui n'est pas du tout ce qu'il semble être. Ce Père Noël plus grand que nature offre à Joe un cadeau magique qui, promet-il, fera disparaître le problème, mais ce colis d'apparence innocente donne le coup d'envoi d'une aventure que Joe n'oubliera jamais. S'il parvient à atteindre le jour de Noël en un seul morceau et à sauver sa femme et son enfant à naître d'une vie en Laponie, il aura appris une leçon d'une importance vitale : il faut faire attention à ce que l'on souhaite... on pourrait bien l'obtenir.

One Last Summer Before the Revolution
by Anna PeichevaNature was the first to rebel. The summer of 1916 roared with thunderstorms, wind in the face, and icy rain from the sky. But people barely noticed the weather. War was on everyone's lips, interfering with creativity, study, love, life, dividing society into two camps. Revolution already loomed in the electrified air; yet the Tsar, who had unleashed the war, did not notice. He trusted his own newspapers, followed battles in the movies, and worried most about his family... Here is a documentary cross-section of the epoch through the letters, emotions, and thoughts of the participants; but we also rise above the fray - the finest threads connecting all our heroes are especially visible from above: from the emperor to the poet, from the military doctor to the poor peasant woman. These threads intertwined into the fuse of the future revolution, ignited by the summer lightning of 1916. The book is inspired by the work of German writer Florian Illies "1913: The Summer of the Century."

The Opulent Interiors of the Gilded Age: All 203 Photographs from "Artistic Houses," with New Text (Dover Architecture)
by Arnold Lewis James Turner Steven McQuillinOriginally published in 1883 to 1884, Artistic Houses comprised more than 200 photographs of the interiors of the homes of the well-to-do, with commentary on the woodwork, wall coverings, color schemes, and other aspects of interior décor. Today, historians consider Artistic Houses the best source of information and illustrations for private houses in major Eastern cities in the early 1880s. Although its authorship is not certain, the text is generally attributed to noted author and art critic George William Sheldon.This volume retains all of the photographs from the original two-volume work; the text, however, has been replaced with a version specially written for this edition. In addition to an introductory essay on the period's social and esthetic trends, extensive captions for each plate include most of the valuable information from Sheldon's descriptions plus biographical comments on the homeowners and their families, comments on paintings and sculptures, present condition of the houses, and locations.Over 200 photographs of 97 grand buildings include rare photographs of the New York homes of Hamilton Fish and Ulysses S. Grant; multiple views of the Henry Villard house, now part of the Helmsley Palace Hotel in Manhattan; rooms from William H. Vanderbilt's Fifth Avenue residence; interiors from J. Pierpont Morgan's Madison Avenue home; the Marshall Field house in Chicago, and many others. Here are richly paneled rooms that rivaled the baronial halls of European castles, miniature art galleries, magnificent tapestries, plush draperies, and brilliant chandeliers. With its thorough scholarship and wealth of detail, this impressive survey offers not only inside views of the homes of the rich and powerful families during the Gilded Age but also fascinating insights into the social history and architectural development of the United States.

Comment Réaliser Vos Rêves et Vos Objjectifs
by Dave McAllenUn auteur de renom nous montre comment déjouer les conseils permanents, cesser d'essayer d'être "parfait" tout le temps pour atteindre notre plein potentiel et être plus heureux. La vie est pavée de conseils pour que vous puissiez agir, vous comporter et faire les choses parfaitement, en imitant des mentors. Il y a donc des juges et des prophètes partout, qui vous disent si vous réussirez dans la vie, si vous excellerez dans votre carrière et ainsi de suite. Mais Dave vous indique une vérité rafraîchissante : vous pouvez diriger vous-même votre destin. Son livre, ''Comment réaliser vos rêves et vos objectifs'' est son antidote à la complaisance et l'absence de sentiment qui ont infecté le monde et reconfiguré une génération. Ce livre est de grande valeur. Dave n'est pas d'accord avec l'idée, corroborée à la fois par des recherches historiques et des exemples bien choisis, que les personnes qui réussissent dépendent de la capacité de leurs parrains et des personnes bien informées à prédire leur destin avec précision. Pour lui, il faut apprendre à se découvrir soi-même et à rester concentré sur ses rêves. Tous les êtres humains ont des faiblesses et des défauts, des succès et des échecs, des hauts et des bas. Nous ne pouvons pas tous devenir grands et exceptionnels. Mais c'est catastrophique quand la direction naturelle de notre vie est changée. Dave nous conseille de procéder à une étude approfondie de nous-mêmes pour commencer à être juste envers notre avenir. Une fois que c'est fait, agissez conformément à votre personnalité et arrêtez de remettre votre destin entre les mains d'autres personnes, qu'il s'agisse de vos pairs, de vos parents, de vos professeurs, etc.
