Story
"Tempête en juin" décrit par le menu l'Exode, et ce traumatisme qui arracha le masque social de bien des gens, dévoilant veulerie ou courage, égoïsme ou générosité. Dans "Dolce", l'auteur dissèque le calme apparent régnant dans la petite ville de Bussy, l'ambigüité des liens qui lient sa population et les occupants, puis les tensions nées des premières actions de la Résistance.

Story
Obra cumbre de Irène Némirovsky y baluarte literario contra el fanatismo y la intolerancia, Suite francesa cautivó al mundo con su retrato inmisericorde de la sociedad francesa de entreguerras. En Los fuegos de otoño, Némirovsky compone de nuevo un sensacional fresco narrativo delenvilecimiento de la burguesía parisina durante ese período vertiginoso. Escrita en la primavera de 1942, al mismo tiempo que Suite francesa y pocos meses antes de la muerte de la autora, y publicada a título póstumo en 1957, Los fuegos de otoño sobrevivió milagrosamente a los estragos del nazismo.

La profunda discordancia entre la indiferente placidez de la vida burguesa y el dramático devenir de los acontecimientos -que sería el leitmotiv de su siguiente y última obra, la excepcional Suite francesa-, es el hilo conductor del que Némirovsky se sirve para narrar las vicisitudes de una familia burguesa del norte de Francia sobre el trasfondo de un período especialmente convulso de la historia europea que culmina con el desmoronamiento del orden social que siguió a la ocupación alemana.

Story
In June 1940 France fell to the Nazis. The effects of this momentous event on the lives of ordinary Parisians and the inhabitants of a small rural community under occupation are brilliantly explored in Irène Némirovsky’s gripping and heartbreaking novel. Némirovsky herself was a tragic victim of the Nazi regime but she left behind her this exceptional masterpiece. In Suite Française she conjures up a vivid cast of wonderful characters who find themselves thrown together in ways they never expected.

Story
Nel 1929, il manoscritto fu presentato anonimo, e, letto dall’editore tutto d’un fiato, ne fu rintracciato l’autore, che sorprendentmente, si rivelò essere una giovane donna, elegante, figlia dell’alta borghesia russa rifugiatasi a Parigi dopo la rivoluzione. David Golder fu elogiato all’unanimità dalla critica, sia per il tema difficile che per la prosa pura e elegante. Golder è l’archetipo dell’ebreo povero che fa fortuna, e, dopo aver accumulato denaro e simboli di benessere sociale si trova, alla fine della vita “'soli come cani, così come si è vissuti'".

Story
With elegant simplicity and unswerving honesty, Irene Nemirovsky chronicles the brutalizing effects of war on three ordinary Parisian families whose lives intertwine, spanning the years between 1912 and 1941. What starts out as a glorious campaign in 1914, full of optimistic declarations of France's greatness, soon turns to shame and cynicism as the conflict drags on. Parisians, suffering from cold and hunger, seem unable or unwilling to comprehend the horrors of the trenches.

El vino de la soledad (publicada en 1935) recrea el destino de una adinerada familia rusa refugiada en París, y describe la venganza de una joven contra su madre, motivo que la escritora ya había tratado en esa pequeña joya literaria que es El baile. Con una mirada inteligente y ácida, la novela sigue a la pequeña Elena de los ocho años a la mayoría de edad, desde Ucrania hasta San Petersburgo, Finlandia y finalmente París, donde la familia se instala tras el estallido de la revolución rusa, en un recorrido paralelo al que realizó la propia Némirovsky.

Dr. Peterson guides us through the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world. In riveting detail, he analyzes the Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph that stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically. Adam and Eve and the eternal fall of mankind; the resentful and ultimately murderous war of Cain and Abel; the cataclysmic flood of Noah; the spectacular collapse of the Tower of Babel; Abraham’s terrible adventure; and the epic of Moses and the Israelites.

Story
Dr. Peterson guides us through the ancient, foundational stories of the Western world. In riveting detail, he analyzes the Biblical accounts of rebellion, sacrifice, suffering, and triumph that stabilize, inspire, and unite us culturally and psychologically. Adam and Eve and the eternal fall of mankind; the resentful and ultimately murderous war of Cain and Abel; the cataclysmic flood of Noah; the spectacular collapse of the Tower of Babel; Abraham’s terrible adventure; and the epic of Moses and the Israelites.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.
