Each summer, in the ancient hill town of Siena, Italy, there erupts one of the most extraordinary, exciting, and dangerous horse races in the world— the Palio. So furious is the rivalry that it is often said the Palio is more battle than race, and that "Fate is the Queen of the Palio." This magnificent book is a true story of the Palio —a thrilling, heart-stirring tale of a boy and a beautiful half-Arabian mare who won undying fame. Marguerite Henry tells—as only she can—how the life of Giorgio Terni, a boy of the Maremma marshes, became linked in strange and dramatic fashion with that...

Story0
John Randel Jr. (1787-1865) was an eccentric and flamboyant surveyor. Renowned for his inventiveness as well as for his bombast and irascibility, Randel was central to Manhattan’s development but died in financial ruin. Telling Randel’s engrossing and dramatic life story for the first time, this eye-opening biography introduces an unheralded pioneer of American engineering and mapmaking. Charged with "gridding" what was then an undeveloped, hilly island, Randel recorded the contours of Manhattan down to the rocks on its shores.

Entretiens Radiophoniques. Archives de l'INA sous la direction de Jean-Marc Turine. Avec la participation de Jean-Louis Trintignant. Marguerite Duras aimait la radio, lieu privilégié qui fait se rejoindre la parole et le silence. En écoutant les archives de l'INA, il n'est plus possible d'en douter. Parler de façon directe lui plaisait, comme de dialoguer au moment de la sortie d'un livre, d'un film ou d'une pièce de théâtre. Elle profitait aussi de la radio pour exercer son humour, son goût de l'absurde et du rire.
