Nous sommes ou nous serons tous confrontés au moment délicat de l'âge mûr à des séparations évoquées dans ce roman: La Dune.Hermine, artiste exaltée, revient après des années à Omaha Beach, un lieu qui lui est cher et où elle a vécu son enfance. Elle nous confie sa douleur de l'absence, nous livre avec un humour haut en couleur ses truculents souvenirs en écho avec les péripéties de la plage et exprime ses désirs de transmettre et réunifier.Avec ses jumelles, au rythme du flux et reflux, elle scrute le rivage, s'abreuve des moindres signes de vie ou indices, rassemble les morceaux de puzzle susceptibles de l'éclairer car son retour en cet endroit n'est pas un hasard. Quête ou enquête? Cette histoire énigmatique, vision métaphorique et pudique de l'absence s'inscrit dans un mouvement où le passé se conjugue avec le présent significatif.

The Caucasus--a region of supreme natural beauty and fiercely proud warriors--has throughout history been characterized by violence and turmoil. During the Great Caucasus War of 1834-1859, the warring mountain tribes of Daghestan and Chechnya united under the charismatic leadership of the Muslim chieftain Imam Shamyl, the "Lion of Daghestan", and held at bay the invading Russian army for nearly 25 years. Lesley Blanch vividly recounts the epic story of their heroic and bloody struggle for freedom and the life of a man still legendary in the Caucasus.

The phenomenal development of writing and literary creation among the francophone communities of eastern Canada has gone largely unnoticed and unprobed outside the fragmented land of Acadia. Writing Acadia attempts for the first time to observe from a distance the invention of literature in oral Acadia, and to interpret, assess and order the manifold manifestations of the transition from epic story-telling to writing as a means of nation-building. Having begun to write, modern Acadia has truly (re)written herself into existence, an existence now threatened by postmodern unwriting of literature. Destined not only for specialists but also and especially for readers with a general interest in literature, including students of all levels, Writing Acadia presents generous samples of Acadian poetry, drama and prose, with accompanying English translations.
