De 1985 à 1992, j'ai transcrit des scènes, des paroles, saisies dans le R.E.R., les hypermarchés, le centre commercial de la Ville Nouvelle, où je vis. Il me semble que je voulais ainsi retenir quelque chose de l'époque et des gens qu'on croise juste une fois, dont l'existence nous traverse en déclenchant du trouble, de la colère ou de la douleur. Annie Ernaux. Marianne Denicourt s'empare avec grâce de cette série d'instantanés urbains habilement saisis par Annie Ernaux.

Tra il 1956 e il 1972, sulle pagine del Mondo, del Corriere della Sera, dell'Europeo, Flaiano ha costruito, articolo dopo articolo, aforisma dopo aforisma, un catalogo implacabile delle illusioni italiane. Il suo sguardo non risparmia nulla, nemmeno sé stesso: ironico fino alla ferocia, malinconico fino alla tenerezza, sempre troppo lucido per l'epoca che lo circondava. L'aforisma si fa racconto. Il frammento si fa tempo. E il tempo rivela ciò che di questi testi è insieme il dono e la condanna: tutto ciò che Flaiano scriveva sessant'anni fa sull'Italia sembra scritto stamattina.

De 1862 à 1865, Edmond et Jules de Goncourt consignent, jour après jour, leurs Mémoires de la vie littéraire. Ce deuxième volume s’ouvre sur un premier janvier endeuillé, où le souvenir des absents glace le cœur, puis nous fait gravir l’escalier jusqu’à la modeste chambre du cinquième d’une vieille cousine, Cornélie, assaillie de visites — dames, collégiens, parents, au point qu’il n’y a plus de sièges.

Letter writing is more than communication—it’s connection, reflection, and sometimes even transformation. A letter is a piece of yourself, preserved in ink and paper, that says, “I cared enough to take the time.” In a time of auto-corrected feelings and fleeting texts, A Life in Letters is a bold return to what’s real. Award-winning educator and storyteller Ronda Beaman shares the letters she never sent—but needed to write. Honest, heartfelt, and sometimes hilariously raw, these notes of recognition, regret, and release trace a life lived fully and felt deeply.

Told through the scorched voice of Johnny Mathews — a no-bullshit, ink-covered, shop-stained veteran with a pit bull named Angel and a fuse cut three inches too short — this is the story of modern manhood under siege.
