Qu'y a-t-il de commun entre le coup d'Etat de Pinochet au Chili, le massacre de Tiananmen, l'effondrement de l'Union soviétique, et d'autres événements marquants comme les attentats du 11 septembre ou le cyclone Katrina ? Naomi Klein répond que tous ces moments sont liés à l'émergence d'un "capitalisme du désastre". Dans son ouvrage, elle approfondit sa réflexion sur les opérations concertées visant à assurer le contrôle par un ultralibéralisme puissant, qui exploite crises et désastres pour remplacer les valeurs démocratiques par la loi du marché et la spéculation. Ce récit, remarquablement documenté, dévoile une histoire secrète du libre marché et propose une nouvelle éthique de l'investigation journalistique. Il s'affirme comme une lecture essentielle pour réévaluer les enjeux contemporains et futurs, soulignant la responsabilité collective des citoyens du monde. Journaliste et essayiste diplômée de la London School of Economics, Klein est l'auteure du best-seller international No Logo, devenu une référence mondiale. Elle contribue régulièrement à des publications telles que The Nation et The Guardian, et a réalisé un film sur l'occupation des usines en Argentine.

I thought things would change when I found the others. We would stop running. We would fight the Mogadorians. And we would win. But I was wrong. Though we came together, we barely escaped with our lives. And now we hide. The six of us are powerful - but not strong enough to take on an army. We haven't discovered our full Legacies. We haven't learned to work together. And time is running out, because we need to find Number Five before they do. This battle is far from over . . . Praise for Pittacus Lore: 'Number Four is a hero for this generation.' Michael Bay, director of Transformers 'Tense, exciting, full of energy.' Observer 'Relentlessly readable.' The Times 'Tense, keeps you wondering.' Sunday Times 'Set to eclipse Harry Potter and moody vampires. Pittacus Lore is about to become one of the hottest names on the planet.' Big Issue

New York Times and USA Today Bestseller From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Wait for You and Be with Me comes a daring tale that pushes boundaries . . . At 21, Calla hasn't done a lot of things. She’s never been kissed, never seen the ocean, never gone to an amusement park. But growing up, she witnessed some things no child ever should. She still carries the physical and emotional scars of living with a strung-out mother, Mona—secrets she keeps from everyone, including her close circle of college friends. But the safe cocoon Calla has carefully built is shattered when she discovers her mom has stolen her college money and run up a huge credit card debt in her name. Now, Calla has to go back to the small town she thought shed left behind and clean up her mom’s mess again. Of course, when she arrives at her mother’s bar, Mona is nowhere to be found. Instead, six feet of hotness named Jackson James is pouring drinks and keeping the place humming. Sexy and intense, Jax is in Calla’s business from they moment they meet, giving her a job and helping her search for Mona. And the way he looks at her makes it clear he wants to get horizontal . . . and maybe something more. Before Calla can let him get close, though, she’s got to deal with the pain of the past—and some very bad guys out to mess her up if she doesn't give them her mom.
After suicide becomes a worldwide epidemic, the only known cure is The Program, a treatment in which painful memories are erased, a fate worse than death to 17-year-old Sloane who knows that The Program will steal memories of her dead brother and boyfriend.

Dietro le quinte del mondo della moda non è tutto glamour quello che luccica

Dopo essere stata lasciata dal fidanzato storico, Angela ha il cuore spezzato e il morale a terra. Essere assunta da una prestigiosa agenzia di moda londinese, quindi, sembra proprio l'occasione ideale per ricominciare da capo. In realtà Angela non sa assolutamente nulla di moda, e con la sua taglia 42 viene considerata scandalosamente sovrappeso, ma ha la testa piena di sogni e di entusiasmo. Ben presto si renderà conto di essere atterrata su un altro pianeta, tanto magico e scintillante quanto folle: un mondo dove al colloquio di lavoro il fattore determinante è indossare le scarpe dello stilista giusto, non il curriculum; dove le torte di compleanno si annusano (e poi si buttano via), non si mangiano; dove i cagnolini viziati delle star viaggiano in prima classe; dove a trent'anni il botox è già un must; dove a dettare legge sono l'hair stylist e il make-up artist. E soprattutto dove, tra una vendita di campionario e un party esclusivo, rischi seriamente di ritrovarti con il conto in rosso e di allontanare da te le persone che ami davvero. Oltre a svelare i retroscena più assurdi, divertenti e piccanti dell'industria del glamour, I love fashion racconta la favola moderna di una ragazza come tante alla ricerca della felicità, del vero amore e dell'autentica se stessa.
