Précisons que "Nexus 2" constitue la chronique des déplacements, en 1928, de Miller et de son épouse June dans divers pays d'Europe, dont la France, le Royaume-Uni, la Hongrie, etc. Les scènes érotiques abondent, et pas seulement avec June (nommée ici "Mona"). 2004.New toddler taming: a parents' guide to the first four years

Par Michael Palin. 2007
Palin's New Europe takes the form of a journey through countries which have rich and complex cultures. Few have survived…
intact, as the ebb and flow of warring armies has continually changed the map of Europe. Starting in the mountains of Slovenia he travels down through Croatia and the former Yugoslavia to Albania before turning northwards to embrace Bulgaria, Romania, Hungary, The Ukraine, The Czech Republic, Slovakia, the former East Germany, Poland, the Russian enclave of Kaliningrad, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, opening up a new and undiscovered world to millions of viewers and readers. 2007.Near myths: a love affair with Greece

As a wise old man from the island of Siphos once said to him, "You see Yanni, when a Greek is born, he follows life - and wins it. And then, Yanni, he enjoys life! Endaxi? OK? Bravo!". Not a bad lesson for any of us! 1989.Narrow dog to Carcassonne
Par Terry Darlington. 2005
Terry and Monica Darlington are intrepid pensioners who made the surprising decision to sail their canal narrowboat Phillis May, sixteen…
hundred miles across France and down to the Mediterranean, accompanied only by their whippet Jim. They took advice from nautical experts, who told them they would lose their boat and their lives (and, indeed, Jim). It is a true story of high adventure in France, England, Belgium and out at sea, as experienced by two innocents and a reluctant dog. Some strong language. 2005.Muddling through in Madagascar

Mornings in Mexico
Par D. H Lawrence. 2009
In the 1920s, Lawrence travelled several times to Mexico, where he was fascinated by the clash of beauty and brutality,…
purity and darkness that he observed there. The diverse and evocative essays that make up "Mornings in Mexico" - "Market Day", "Dance of the Sprouting Corn", "The Hopi Snake Dance" - bring to life the elemental simplicity of the Zapotec Indians in Mexico. The intense, dark rhythms of the Indians in the American South West are brightly adorned with simple and evocative details sharply observed: piles of fruit in a village market, strolls in a courtyard filled with hibiscus and roses, the play of light on an adobe wall. 2009.Mommy burnout: how to reclaim your life and raise healthier children in the process
Par Sheryl Ziegler. 2018
Mountain year
Par Michael Joseph Murphy. 1964
The account of the year in an Irish mountain district, divided into twelve essays, describes the attitudes and characters of…
some of the people who live there. All his life Michael J. Murphy has lived within sight of Slieve Gullion. To him it does not represent just a large outcrop of rock, but a way of life. In his opening essay he shows how the personality of a mountain can dominate and influence the lives and living of everyone within its shadow, even the very fields. 1964.Au pied du mur: au coeur de la Terre sainte en guerre : Paris, Jérusalem, Ramallah : petit guide à usage politico-spirituel

sur cette terre chargée d'histoire et revendiquée par deux peuples et trois religions monothéistes. À Jérusalem, Hébron ou Ramallah, nous visitons avec elle les lieux saints. Mais, surtout, nous découvrons un monde en guerre, où règne la peur, matérialisée par un gigantesque mur de béton. Quelques descriptions de violence. 2010.L'enfant des neiges: récit
Par Nicolas Vanier. 2004
Dictionnaire insolite de la Norvège ((Dictionnaire insolite).)
Par Ingrid Van Houdenhove, Simon Descamps. 2014
" Si à Oslo règne Harald V, la vraie souveraineté en Norvège est bien celle de la nature. Cliché ?…
Réalité ! L'outdoor s'enseigne à l'école. Les Sâmes continuent à élever des rennes mais ont leur parlement depuis 1989. Se rendre en Norvège, c'est avant tout rencontrer un mode de vie original, où le repas chaud se prend à 17 heures et où la pizza surgelée est élevée au rang de plat national. On s'y régale de fromage brun, d'oeufs et de langue de morue tandis que le saumon n'est pas un plat de fête. On peut aussi planter sa tente partout ou dormir dans des hôtels de glace... " -- 4e de couv.Conquérant de l'impossible
Par Mike Horn, Jean-Philippe Chatrier. 2005

plans for the future. His wife Guislaine, whom he had divorced and remarried, suggested they walk across southern France.
