Paperback. Zustand: Good. The children of world leaders are held hostage in an attempt to keep the peace in this "slyly humorous, starkly thought-provoking" (Kirkus Reviews, starred review) novel. Greta is a Duchess and a Crown Princess. She is also a Child of Peace, a hostage held by the de facto ruler of the world, the great Artificial Intelligence, Talis. This is how the game is played: if you want to rule, you must give one of your children as a hostage. Start a war and your hostage dies. The system has worked for centuries. Parents don't want to see their children murdered. Greta will be free if she can make it to her eighteenth birthday. Until then she is prepared to die with dignity, if necessary. But everything changes when Elian arrives at the Precepture. He's a hostage from a new American alliance, and he defies the machines that control every part of their lives--and is severely punished for it. His rebellion opens Greta's eyes to the brutality of the rules they live under, and to the subtle resistance of her companions. And Greta discovers her own quiet power. Then Elian's country declares war on Greta's and invades the prefecture, taking the hostages hostage. Now the great Talis is furious, and coming himself to deliver punishment. Which surely means that Greta and Elian will be killed.unless Greta can think of a way to break all the rules.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Andr Gide propose une analyse p n trante de l'oeuvre et de la vie du c l bre crivain russe Fiodor Dosto evsky. Ce livre est une exploration profonde des th mes centraux et des caract res psychologiques complexes pr sents dans les romans de Dosto evsky, offrant aux lecteurs une compr hension enrichie de son g nie litt raire. Gide commence par situer Dosto evsky dans le contexte litt raire et historique de la Russie du XIXe si cle, soulignant l'impact de ses exp riences personnelles, notamment son emprisonnement et son exil en Sib rie, sur son criture. Il explore comment ces preuves ont fa onn la vision du monde de Dosto evsky et ont infus ses oeuvres d'une profondeur psychologique et d'un r alisme saisissant. Il examine les th mes r currents tels que la culpabilit , la r demption, le conflit entre le bien et le mal, et la qu te de sens dans un monde souvent absurde et cruel. Gide admire particuli rement la capacit de Dosto evsky d peindre les tourments int rieurs de ses personnages et cr er des situations morales complexes qui d fient les notions simplistes de justice et de moralit . En outre, Gide discute de l'importance de la foi et de la spiritualit dans l'oeuvre de Dosto evsky, explorant comment ses questionnements religieux et ses doutes personnels se manifestent travers ses r cits. Il met en lumi re la tension constante entre le rationalisme et la foi, l'individualisme et la communaut , qui caract rise la pens e de Dosto evsky. Le livre de Gide n'est pas seulement une tude critique, mais aussi une sorte de dialogue entre deux esprits litt raires. En r fl chissant sur les crits de Dosto evsky, Gide r v le galement ses propres pr occupations et ses affinit s intellectuelles, cr ant ainsi une oeuvre qui est la fois une analyse litt raire et une m ditation personnelle. Ce livre est une lecture essentielle pour tous ceux qui s'int ressent la litt rature russe et l'exploration des profondeurs de l' me humaine. travers une criture l gan.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. NEWBERY HONOR AWARD . LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD . SCHNEIDER FAMILY BOOK AWARD HONOR . FINALIST FOR THE AUDIE AWARD FOR BEST MIDDLE GRADE AUDIOBOOK OF THE YEAR "Funny, poignant and-most important-hopeful." -New York Times Simon O'Keeffe's biggest claim to fame should be the time his dad accidentally gave a squirrel a holy sacrament. Or maybe the alpaca disaster that went viral on YouTube. But the story the whole world wants to tell about Simon is the one he'd do anything to forget: the one starring Simon as a famous survivor of gun violence at school. Two years after the infamous event, twelve-year-old Simon and his family move to the National Quiet Zone-the only place in America where the internet is banned. Instead of talking about Simon, the astronomers who flock to the area are busy listening for signs of life in space. And when Simon makes a friend who's determined to give the scientists what they're looking for, he'll finally have the chance to spin a new story for the world to tell. Simon Sort of Says, the Newbery Honor-winning novel by Erin Bow, is a breathtaking testament to the lasting echoes of trauma, the redemptive power of humor, and the courage it takes to move forward without forgetting the past.…
