About this listen
Dans une France assez proche de la nôtre, un homme s'engage dans la carrière universitaire. Peu motivé par l'enseignement, il s'attend à une vie ennuyeuse mais calme, protégée des grands drames historiques. Cependant les forces en jeu dans le pays ont fissuré le système politique jusqu'à provoquer son effondrement. Cette implosion sans soubresauts, sans vraie révolution, se développe comme un mauvais rêve.
Le talent de l'auteur, sa force visionnaire nous entraînent sur un terrain ambigu et glissant ; son regard sur notre civilisation vieillissante fait coexister dans ce roman les intuitions poétiques, les effets comiques, une mélancolie fataliste. Ce livre audio est une saisissante fable politique et morale.

Story
Violette Toussaint est garde-cimetière dans une petite ville de Bourgogne. Les gens de passage et les habitués viennent se réchauffer dans sa loge où rires et larmes se mélangent au café qu'elle leur offre. Son quotidien est rythmé par leurs confidences. Un jour, parce qu'un homme et une femme ont décidé de reposer ensemble dans son carré de terre, tout bascule. Des liens qui unissent vivants et morts sont exhumés, et certaines âmes que l'on croyait noires se révèlent lumineuses.

Story
When Elon Musk was a kid in South Africa, he was regularly beaten by bullies. One day a group pushed him down some concrete steps and kicked him until his face was a swollen ball of flesh. He was in the hospital for a week. But the physical scars were minor compared to the emotional ones inflicted by his father, an engineer, rogue, and charismatic fantasist.

Le pitch ? Quel pitch ? Il est impossible d'en dévoiler un. Le quatrième roman de Michel Houellebecq, par son ampleur, ses ambitions, sa façon bien à lui de déjouer tout pronostic, échappe à cette pratique paresseuse de la critique moderne. Alors qu'en dire ? Dire que les éditeurs étrangers les plus importants (US, Grande- Bretagne, Allemagne, Italie, Espagne, Suède, Japon), l'ont lu sur manuscrit et aussitôt acheté. Dire aussi qu'ils n'ont pas été avares de compliments.

Voici l'odyssée désenchantée d'un informaticien entre deux âges, jouant son rôle en observant les mouvements humains et les banalités qui s'échangent autour des machines à café. L'installation d'un progiciel en province lui permettra d'étendre le champ de ses observations, d'anéantir les dernières illusions d'un collègue - obsédé malchanceux - et d'élaborer une théorie complète du libéralisme, qu'il soit économique ou sexuel.

"Mes croyances sont limitées, mais elles sont violentes. Je crois à la possibilité du royaume restreint. Je crois à l'amour", écrivait récemment Michel Houellebecq. Le narrateur de "Sérotonine" approuverait sans réserve. Son récit traverse une France qui piétine ses traditions, banalise ses villes, détruit ses campagnes au bord de la révolte.

Ou de son père, architecte connu et engagé, avec qui il passa seul de nombreux réveillons de Noël. Il évoquerait certainement Olga, une très jolie Russe rencontrée au début de sa carrière, lors d'une première exposition de son travail photographique à partir de cartes routières Michelin.

Un enregistrement exceptionnel : les cinq volumes des "Misérables", un des plus grands romans de la littérature française, enfin disponibles en livre audio. Jean Valjean, Cosette, les Thénardier, Gavroche, ou encore Javert sont autant de noms qui résonnent au-delà de l'histoire qui les a fait naître. Ces misérables sont décrits à la fois comme des archétypes du genre humain, mais aussi comme les produits d'une société génératrice de pauvreté, d'ignorance et de désespoir.

Leurs bras, comme leurs langues, n'ont rien perdu de cette vigueur étincelante qui les faisait déplacer les montagnes et réussir l'impossible. Leur amitié, dans les moments critiques, ressoude leurs quatre lames comme limailles autour d'un seul aimant. Mais les temps ont bien changé.

Story
Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."

Story
Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Story
Florent-Claude Labrouste er 46 år gammel og ansat i Landbrugsministeriet. Han bor sammen med sin tyve år yngre japanske kæreste Yuzu i en luksuslejlighed i Paris, men er led og ked af sit job, og sin unge, smukke kæreste har han kun foragt til overs for. Han begynder så småt at lege med tanken om at slå hende ihjel, men beslutter sig i stedet for at forsvinde frivilligt. Han opsiger sin stilling, forlader sin kæreste og indlogerer sig på et af de få hoteller i Paris, hvor man stadig må ryge.

Story
"Mes croyances sont limitées, mais elles sont violentes. Je crois à la possibilité du royaume restreint. Je crois à l'amour", écrivait récemment Michel Houellebecq. Le narrateur de "Sérotonine" approuverait sans réserve. Son récit traverse une France qui piétine ses traditions, banalise ses villes, détruit ses campagnes au bord de la révolte.

Story
The Decline of the West - Volume 1 published in 1917, Volume 2 in 1922 - has exercised and challenged opinion ever since. It was a huge undertaking by Oswald Spengler (1880-1936), formerly an unpublished historian and philosopher who set out to radically reconsider history - the rise and fall of world civilisations and their cultures. His primary view was to reject the established Eurocentric paradigm (ancient/classical, Medieval - and, following the Renaissance - modern) and to take a totally new perspective.

Story
In the bizarre world of Franz Kafka, salesmen turn into giant bugs, apes give lectures at college academies, and nightmares probe the mysteries of modern humanity’s unhappiness. More than any other modern writer in world literature, Kafka captures the loneliness and misery that fill the lives of 20th-century humanity.
