Travaillant comme gratte-papier dans une des multiples agences de renseignement pr\u00e9sentes dans une ville sur le point de tomber aux mains du Vi\u00eat-cong, il donne l'impression d'\u00e9voluer dans une dimension parall\u00e8le, loin de la panique et de la violence ambiantes, jusqu'au moment o\u00f9 Ignatius Donovan le recrute officieusement pour le compte de la CIA... Quarante ans plus tard, Michael, devenu veuf peu de temps apr\u00e8s avoir pris sa retraite, vit dans une maison trop grande pour lui au bord de l'Atlantique. S'il replonge dans ses souvenirs, c'est qu'il va devoir, au nom du pass\u00e9, accomplir pour Donovan une derni\u00e8re mission, quelque part sur la fronti\u00e8re mexicaine. Un espion en Canaan est un roman subtil et troublant o\u00f9 les blessures intimes se m\u00ealent aux d\u00e9sordres g\u00e9opolitiques.

Orpheline, jeune couturi\u00e8re milanaise, Paolina est victime d'une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 patriarcale et capitaliste qui n'offre aucun recours aux faibles. Lorsque son fianc\u00e9, Luigi, est arr\u00eat\u00e9 \u00e0 tort, elle se sacrifie pour le sauver, acceptant l'offre trompeuse d'un marquis aussi puissant que corrompu. Ce personnage incarne une aristocratie d\u00e9cadente, pr\u00e9datrice, qui prosp\u00e8re dans les marges d'une modernit\u00e9 urbaine en mutation.\r\nL'intrigue de Paolina s'ancre dans un fait r\u00e9el : la d\u00e9molition, en 1864, du Coperto dei Figini, ancien \u00e9difice populaire milanais ras\u00e9 pour faire place \u00e0 la Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Cette destruction symbolise, pour Tarchetti, l'effacement des pauvres dans un paysage urbain soumis aux int\u00e9r\u00eats des \u00e9lites. \u00c0 travers ce d\u00e9cor, l'auteur d\u00e9peint une ville inqui\u00e9tante, terrain de chasse des puissants et th\u00e9\u00e2tre d'une violence ordinaire exerc\u00e9e sur les plus vuln\u00e9rables.\r\nEn arri\u00e8re-plan, Paolina entre en r\u00e9sonance avec un autre monument de la litt\u00e9rature italienne : Les Fianc\u00e9s d'Alessandro Manzoni. Le roman en reprend certaines figures (la fianc\u00e9e pers\u00e9cut\u00e9e, le noble abusif, le couple emp\u00each\u00e9), mais en d\u00e9tourne la logique. L\u00e0 o\u00f9 Manzoni fait triompher la Providence et la vertu, Tarchetti installe le d\u00e9sespoir et le scandale. Son oeuvre prend ainsi la forme d'une r\u00e9\u00e9criture tragique et subversive, o\u00f9 l'id\u00e9alisme chr\u00e9tien est remplac\u00e9 par un r\u00e9alisme cru et d\u00e9sabus\u00e9.\r\nPaolina est aussi un roman f\u00e9ministe avant l'heure. Refusant la passivit\u00e9, l'h\u00e9ro\u00efne agit, choisit, affronte, dans une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 qui la condamne d'avance. Son combat pour l'amour, la libert\u00e9 et la dignit\u00e9 devient une d\u00e9nonciation silencieuse de la condition f\u00e9minine, des hypocrisies sociales et de la violence syst\u00e9mique. \u00c0 travers elle, Tarchetti rend hommage \u00e0 une figure f\u00e9minine forte, active, moralement sup\u00e9rieure \u00e0 ses bourreaux, mais tragiquement impuissante \u00e0 inverser l'ordre \u00e9tabli.\r\nRoman social, roman de d\u00e9nonciation, roman tragique, Paolina est une oeuvre \u00e0 la fois litt\u00e9raire et politique, esth\u00e9tique et critique. En s'\u00e9cartant du mod\u00e8le manzonien tout en dialoguant avec lui, Tarchetti propose une contre-histoire de l'unification italienne : celle des vaincus, des oubli\u00e9s, des sacrifi\u00e9s. Ce roman, trop longtemps ignor\u00e9, r\u00e9v\u00e8le avec force la face sombre du Risorgimento - et donne \u00e0 la litt\u00e9rature italienne l'un de ses premiers grands r\u00e9cits modernes de d\u00e9sillusion.","authors":["Iginio Ugo Tarchetti","Elena Miraglia Lambert"],"category_codes":["1000000","1010000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/431\/9791090971431_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/431\/9791090971431_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/431\/9791090971431_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"15,00&nbsp;\u20ac","formatted_published_date":"30 septembre 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Iginio Ugo Tarchetti, Elena Miraglia Lambert \u2014 Les Defricheurs","translator":"ELENA MIRAGLIA LAMBERT","weight":147,"page_count":136,"readership":"Tout public","editor":"Les Defricheurs","price":1500,"published_date":"2025-09-29T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9791090971431\/paolina-mysteres-du-coperto-des-figini"},{"id":"9782714448583","title":"Journal secret (1836-1837)","description":"Loin de son oeuvre toute de mesure et d'\u00e9l\u00e9gance, d\u00e9couvrez la face cach\u00e9e du plus grand \u00e9crivain russe \u00e0 travers son journal secret, \u00e9crit jusqu'\u00e0 la veille de son ultime duel.

Though her mother has advised Alice to work only until marriage, Alice has thus far resisted the temptations of matrimony among the neighboring widowers and pig farmers, more content to enjoy the fruits of her labor--or at least the portion of it her father will share after it is paid to him. Alice spends her days arranging Lady Jemima Alderwick's blond hair into the latest French styles, chignons and plaits, laundering her lady's surprisingly malodorous petticoats and drawers, and carefully sewing all manner of fripperies, ribbons, lace, and silk flowers, to her lady's bonnets and gowns.\r\n\r\nBut when a visiting servant, a valet named Charlie Wells, catches her eye, Alice begins to understand the constraints of her position. In a ploy to spend time with the object of her affection, Alice attempts to arrange a romance between Lady Jemima Alderwick and Charlie's employer, one Baronet Sir Nigel Wynstowe. If only they would fall in love--then Alice and Charlie might live together as man and wife! Challenged by Lady Jemima's love for another and Sir Wynstowe's eccentric personality, Alice must use all of her cunning to bring about this unlikely romantic union. Will this low-born servant successfully manipulate the hearts of these lords and ladies? Will Charlie and Alice ever improve their stations?

Despite the eccentricities of her new Headmistress, who warns her of the dangers of the Cold War and the ever-present threat of the bomb, St Anne's seems like a refuge to Ida. But all this is about to change. For a start, her new room-mate is the infamous Louise Adler, potential arsonist and hardened outcast.\r\nMeanwhile, the geography teacher Eleanor Alston, in her late thirties, a disastrous love affair in her wake, faces the new term with weary resignation. But the fragile ecosystem of the school is disrupted by the arrival of a new teacher, Matthew Langfield. Eleanor has an uneasy feeling he is not who he says he is.\r\nAnd things only get worse when a mysterious sickness starts to spread throughout the school, causing strange limb jerks and seizures among the pupils.

Could he not see there was death about her? \r\nPaddy worked the border, a place of road closures, hijackings, sudden death.  Everything bootleg and tawdry, nobody is saying that the law is  paid off  but it is. This is strange terrain, unsolid, ghosted through.\r\nThere's illicit cash coming across the border and Brendan's backstreet Bureau de Change is the place to launder it. Brendan knows the rogue lawyers, the nerve shot policemen, the alcoholic judges and he doesn't care about getting caught. For the Bureau crew getting caught is only the start of the game.\r\nPaddy and his associates were a ragged band and honourless and their worth to themselves was measured in thievery and fraud. But Lorraine was not a girl to be treated lightly. She's cast as a minx, a criminal's moll but she's bought a shotgun.
