L'amour et l'argent: guide de survie en 60 questions
Par Hélène Belleau, Delphine Lobet. 2017
Plus tabou que le sexe, l'argent. En amour, on ne compte pas! Voilà sans doute le sujet le plus délicat…
à aborder dans la vie à deux. L'argent s'inscrit difficilement dans l'idéal amoureux du don, du désintérêt et de la solidarité. Il est pourtant au coeur d'une myriade de décisions qui engagent le couple et la famille, au quotidien et dans la durée. Alors, courage! En 60 questions (dont certaines dérangeantes), les auteures vous invitent à affronter ce tabou conjugal, à réfléchir et à agir. Avec humour, clarté et rigueur, et sans vous faire la leçon. Y a-t-il une meilleure façon de gérer l'argent à deux? Quelle différence ça fait d'être marié? À quoi faut-il penser quand on emménage ensemble? Et quand on devient parents? Ce livre présente de nombreuses histoires de vie et une foule d'informations pratiques. Il révèle aussi les résultats inédits de la première grande enquête sur le sujet au Québec. 2017.Nouvel éloge de la folie: essais édits & inédits (Lettres anglo-américaines)

relate to, rather than two that cannot coexist together. Here he writes about his children’s upbringing and encounters with racism, fatherhood and married life, the Jewish-Arab conflict, his professional ambitions, travels around the world as an author, and his love of books and literature.

Par Pamela Paul. 2017
For twenty-eight years, Pamela Paul has been keeping a diary that records the books she reads, rather than the life…
she leads. Or does it? Over time, it's become clear that this Book of Books, or Bob, as she calls him, tells a much bigger story. For Paul, books reflect her inner life-- her fantasies and hopes, her dreams and ideas. And her life, in turn, influences which books she chooses, whether for solace or escape, diversion or self-reflection, information or entertainment. "My Life with Bob" isn't about what's in those books; it's about the relationship between books and readers. A testament to the power of books to provide the perspective, courage, companionship, and ultimately self-knowledge to forge our own path. 2017.Ten short years ago, Barack Obama became president of the United States, and changed the course of history. Ten short…
years ago, our America was hailed globally as a breathtaking example of democracy, as a rainbow coalition of everyday people marching to the same drum beat. We had finally overcome. But did we? Both the presidencies of Obama and Donald Trump have produced some of the ugliest divides in history: horrific racial murders, non-stop mass shootings, the explosion of attacks on immigrants and on the LGBTQ community, the rise of anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, a massive gap between the haves and the have-nots, and legions of women stepping forth to challenge sexual violence-and men-in all forms. In this collection of 13 essays, the author interweaves brutally honest personal stories with the saga of America, then and now. 2018.Myself with others: selected essays
