A delightful period piece of Paris in the late 1880’s, We’ll to the Woods No More ( Les lauriers sont coupés ) retains its importance as the first use of the monologue intérieur and the inspiration for the stream-of-consciousness technique perfected by James Joyce. Dujardin’s charming tale, told with insight and irony, recounts what goes on in the mind of a young man-about-town in love with a Parisian actress. Mallarmé described the poetry of the telling as "the instant seized by the throat." Originally published in France in 1887, the first English translation (by Joyce scholar Stuart Gilbert) was published by New Directions in 1938. In 1957 Leon Edel’s perceptive historical essay reintroduced the book as "the rare and beautiful case of a minor work which launched a major movement."

Roaming Paris streets by night in the early 1930s, Brassa created arresting images of the city's dramatic nocturnal landscape. First published in French in 1932, this new edition brings one of Brassa's finest works back into print. The back alleys, metro stations, and bistros he photographed are at turns hauntingly empty or peopled by prostitutes, laborers, thugs, and lovers. "Paris by Night" is a stunning portrait of nighttime in the City of Light, as captured by its most articulate observer. 62 photos.

La Peste es la fábula mundialmente reconocida de Albert Camus sobre el miedo y el coraje. Los habitantes de Orán se ven atrapados por una peste mortal que condena a sus víctimas a una muerte rápida y aterradora. El miedo, la soledad y la claustrofobia surgen a medida que son forzados a la cuarentena. Cada persona responde de manera diferente a la enfermedad letal: algunos se resignan a su destino, otros buscan culpables y unos pocos, como el Dr. Rieux, resisten al terror. Publicada en 1947, La Peste es en parte una alegoría del sufrimiento de Francia bajo la ocupación nazi y una historia de valentía y determinación frente a la precariedad de la existencia humana. Es una fábula incomparable sobre el miedo, el coraje y la cobardía. Albert Camus nació en Argelia en 1913 y se convirtió en uno de los líderes intelectuales del movimiento de Resistencia. Su obra incluye La Peste, Los Justos y La Caída, y recibió el Premio Nobel de Literatura en 1957.
