First published in 1923, Reminiscences of a Stock Operator is the fictionalized biography of Jesse Livermore, one of the greatest speculators who ever lived. Now, almost 90 years later, it remains the most widely read, highly recommended investment book ever written. Generations of investors have found that it has more to teach them about themselves and other investors than years of experience in the market. They have also discovered that its trading advice and keen analyses of market price movements rings true.

Shortlisted for the 2021 International Booker Prize. A Guardian Fiction Book of the year. Sometimes discovery brings destruction. "When We Cease to Understand the World" shows us great minds striking out into dangerous, uncharted terrain. Fritz Haber, Alexander Grothendieck, Werner Heisenberg, Erwin Schrödinger: these are among the luminaries into whose troubled minds we are thrust as they grapple with the most profound questions of existence. They have strokes of unparalleled genius, they alienate friends and lovers, they descend into isolated states of madness.

Gibran's Jesus: The Son of Man is a portrayal of Christ through the eyes of His contemporaries - men and women who knew him as an enemy, friend, teacher, and Son.
The characters, including Mary Magdalen, Simon Peter, Pontius Pilate, and Barabbas are brought to life against the social, political, and religious realities of Palestine and Rome at that period.

He became a best-selling novelist while still in college, immediately famous and wealthy. He watched his insufferable father reduced to a bag of ashes in a safety-deposit box. He was lost in a haze of booze, drugs and vilification. Then he was given a second chance. This is the life of Bret Easton Ellis, the author and subject of this remarkable novel. Confounding one expectation after another, Lunar Park is equally hilarious, horrifying and heartbreaking. It’s the most original novel of an extraordinary career - and best of all: it all happened, every word is true.

Peint à Vienne en 1910, le tableau de Gustav Klimt Portrait d’une dame est acheté par un collectionneur anonyme en 1916, retouché par le maître un an plus tard, puis volé en 1997, avant de réapparaître en 2019 dans les jardins d’un musée d’art moderne en Italie. Aucun expert en art, aucun conservateur de musée, aucun enquêteur de police ne sait qui était la jeune femme représentée sur le tableau, ni quels mystères entourent l’histoire mouvementée de son portrait.

An autobiographical short story about finding one’s place inside a Kyoto geisha house. After meeting a geisha she admires, a young woman enters a world shaped by hierarchy and unspoken rules. Quiet and minimalist, the story unfolds through small, everyday moments. She sits on the tatami floor. She serves her maiko and geiko seniors. She waits before touching her chopsticks, and is repeatedly corrected on something that seems small: greeting. Over time, she begins to understand what greeting asks of her.
