dans la misère et qui, avant d'y retourner, devint, dans l'entre-deux-guerres, "la reine de Montparnasse" : une beauté posant nue dans des ateliers crasseux, que peignirent Soutine, Foujita, que photographia Man Ray, que fréquenta Desnos.

Loren Monroe is looking forward to starting school with her new Florida friends when she learns her artistic parents are…
uprooting her once again. This time Loren will stay with her grandmother in Illinois while her parents go to Italy. Luckily there are twins next door to make friends with, and Loren joins the swimming team at her new junior high. Then she learns what her parents have in store for her next. For grades 3-6 and older readersThe experience of an alpine hunt for the golden-crowned King of the Alaska Alpine, can be a life-changing event for…
both the hunter and the hunted. It is part of the mystique of sheep hunting-that the ‘sport' learns as much about himself and his capabilities, as he learns about the hunt. In Hunters of the White Sheep you will encounter an eclectic collection of hunters and their backstories as they hunt for the golden-horned rams. Read along and you will be transported to base camps in the sheep mountains by foot, airplane, ATV, jet boat, and bicycle. Once at the base camp, the hunters forgo mechanized transportation and revert to shoe leather as they pursue the white rams over wind-swept ridges, frightening chasms, chilly-blue glaciers, and sometimes, surprisingly gentle hills. Although much hunting information, such as techniques and locations can be gleaned by reading the stories carefully, this is not intended to be a how-to-hunt sheep book.The First Man: A Commandant Michel de Palma Investigation
Par Xavier-Marie Bonnot. 2010
Commandant Michel de Palma, known by his colleagues as 'the Baron', has chosen early retirement and plans to travel the…
world. But he is dragged back into the force when a case that has haunted him for a decade erupts once more. Resurfacing from Le Guen's Cave, a prehistoric grotto thirty-eight metres below sea level outside Marseilles, France, an experienced diver mysteriously gets into difficulties. Meanwhile, Thomas Autran, a serial killer with a peculiar interest in the supernatural, suffering from a dangerous form of schizophrenia, is once again on the run. Ancient cave paintings, savage murders committed according to a precise ritual: a return to the first ages of humanity, the era of the great Palaeolithic hunters. And despite the gory trail left at each crime scene, de Palma must first understand the child, the secrets of a family, a story of exploitation - and revenge - before he can track down the First Man.Doors Open
