aussi l'histoire de ce parc prestigieux, y mêlant une foule d'anecdotes qui touchent à la grande comme à la petite histoire. Des fêtes de Louis XIV, avec ses feux d'artifice qui émerveillent l'Europe, à Stéphane Mallarmé enterrant ses chats auprès du grand bassin, il nous montre le Versailles éternel, où chaque bosquet abrite un trésor. lI nous révèle aussi le Versailles actuel, reconquis, à force de passion et de travail, sur la tempête de 1999.

Par Shoshana Berger, B. J. Miller. 2019
The first ever practical, compassionate, and comprehensive guide to dying-and living fully until you do. "There is nothing wrong with…
you for dying," palliative care doctor B.J. Miller and Shoshana Berger write in A Beginner's Guide to the End. "Our ultimate purpose here isn't so much to help you die as it is to free up as much life as possible until you do." Theirs is a clear-eyed and big-hearted action plan for approaching the end of life, written to help readers feel more in control of an experience that so often seems anything but controllable. Their book offers everything from step-by-step instructions for how to do your paperwork and navigate the healthcare system to answers to questions you might be afraid to ask your doctor, like whether or not sex is still okay when you're sick. You'll be walked through how to break the news to your employer, whether to share old secrets with your family, how to face friends who might not be as empathetic as you'd hoped, and to how to talk to your children about your will. (Don't worry: if anyone gets snippy, it'll likely be their spouses, not them.) There are also lessons for survivors, like how to shut down a loved one's social media accounts, clean out the house, and write a great eulogy. An honest, surprising, and detailed-oriented guide to the most universal of all experiences, A Beginner's Guide to the End is the one book that everyone needs.Evaluates a broad range of food and consumer products in terms of the acute and chronic health hazards that they…

Par Debi Goodwin. 2019
Ever since her childhood on a Niagara farm, Debi has dug in the dirt to find resilience. But when her…
husband, Peter, was diagnosed with cancer in November, it was too late in the season to seek solace in her garden. With idle hands and a fearful mind, Debi sought something to sustain her through the months ahead. She soon came across Victory Gardens-the vegetable gardens cultivated during the world wars that sustained so many. During an anxious winter, Debi researched, drew plans, and ordered seeds. In spring, with Peter in remission, her garden thrived, and life got back on track. But when Peter's cancer returned like a killing frost, the garden became a reminder that everything must come to an end. A Victory Garden for Trying Times is a personal journey of love, loss, and healing through the natural cycles of the earthUnder the Ramadan moon
