Dialogue entre Jean-Marc Jancovici et Salomé Saqué.
Journaliste en charge du pôle économique du média Blast, Salomé Saqué, 29 ans, travaille notamment sur le réchauffement climatique et les inégalités hommes-femmes et est autrice de deux livres dont le premier, Sois jeune et tais-toi (Payot, 2022), se veut une réponse aux critiques dénigrant la jeunesse. Son interlocuteur, Jean-Marc Jancovici, 62 ans, est un ingénieur, concepteur du bilan carbone, fondateur du cabinet de conseil Carbone 4 et du think tank The Shift Project, spécialisés dans la décarbonation.
Ensemble, ils abordent la nécessité d'une alliance intergénérationnelle pour limiter le réchauffement climatique, l'éco-anxiété particulièrement élevée chez les jeunes, l'inaction préoccupante à moyen et long termes de la classe politique, ou encore la question, finalement pas si hors-sujet, de la séparation des couples et de la surconsommation énergétique qu'elle entraîne. -
''Contemporary romance''s unicorn: the elusive marriage of deeply brainy and delightfully escapist.'' Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman''s carefully calculated theories on love into chaos. As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn''t believe in lasting romantic relationships but her best friend does, and that''s what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive on her way to a happily ever after was always going to be tough, scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting woman, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees. That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when he agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. Olive soon discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

A dangerous alliance between a Vampyre bride and an Alpha werewolf becomes a love deep enough to sink your teeth into in this new paranormal romance from the New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis.
Misery Lark, the only daughter of the most powerful Vampyre councilman of the Southwest, is an outcast-again. Her days of living in anonymity among the Humans are over: she has been called upon to uphold an historic peacekeeping alliance between the Vampyres and their mortal enemies, the Weres, and sees little choice but to surrender herself in the exchange. Again . . .
Weres are ruthless and unpredictable, and their Alpha, Lowe Moreland, is no exception. He rules his pack with absolute authority, but not without justice. And, unlike the Vampyre Council, not without feeling. It''s clear from the way he tracks Misery''s every movement that he doesn''t trust her. If only he knew how right he was . . .
Because Misery has her own reasons to agree to this marriage of convenience, reasons that have nothing to do with politics or alliances, and everything to do with the only thing she''s ever cared about. And she is willing to do whatever it takes to get back what''s hers, even if it means a life alone in Were territory . . . alone with the wolf.

Indémodables.
Paloma, rousse flamboyante et première à porter la couronne de l'émission Drag Race France, balance des références culturelles à la pelle, a des airs de Rossy de Palma et se décrit comme une «queen sympathique». Sous la perruque, Hugo Bardin est un Clermontois de 33 ans, comédien et réalisateur.
Le Filip, longiligne blonde chic et froide, est une reine du stand-up et du shade. Punk qui joue la conservatrice, elle a connu une scène drag underground, évoqué sans fard son addiction à l'alcool et aux drogues durant l'émission, et se décrit comme «la femme de l'Est la plus à l'ouest». Son dragname est son prénom au civil. Filip, 29 ans, est né à Zagreb, en Croatie.
Entre éclats de rire, coups de gueule et gorgées de bières fraîches, les deux queens discutent politique et rapport au drag, mais aussi homophobie, cinéma et poids de la couronne. Cette dernière a beau être lourde de responsabilités, elles la portent avec joie. -

Sea, Space and Fun.
Thomas Pesquet, 45 ans, est l'astronaute européen le plus expérimenté avec près de 400 jours à bord de la station spatiale internationale (ISS) et six sorties extra-véhiculaires ; il se définit par ailleurs comme un «navigateur du dimanche». François Gabart, 40 ans, est ce marin aux mèches blondes qui fend les eaux à une vitesse stratosphérique et détient le record du tour du monde en solitaire à la voile, en 42 jours. Les deux aventuriers des temps modernes se connaissent bien. Entre eux, les parallèles fusent et s'enchaînent. Et comme les présentations étaient déjà faites, nous avons pu approfondir les sujets qui les rassemblent et comprendre à quel point l'exploration est une aventure qui se paie au prix fort : l'endurance face à l'inconfort, la quête de sens au-delà de la performance, l'engagement écologique ou encore le coût psychologique d'une longue solitude. Naturellement, invitation a été faite à Thomas Pesquet de venir naviguer sur le trimaran. La réciproque, pour l'instant, est plus difficile à envisager. -
Depuis des millénaires on dit de la calvitie qu'elle est honteuse, laide, comique, et l'on tourne en ridicule ceux qui en sont atteints. Railleries qui persistent à l'époque moderne, où les chauves ont longtemps été cantonnés à des rôles de pathétiques losers, façon Jean-Claude Dusse. Mais depuis 1979 et Les Bronzés font du ski, un petit nombre de personnes peu velues du caillou ont été érigées au rang d'icônes. Il y eut Grace Jones pour les femmes. Il y eut les Bleus en 1998 : baiser immortel de Laurent Blanc sur le vertex de Fabien Barthez ; impérissable tonsure zidanienne. Plus récemment encore, des stars du grand écran dégarnies comme Jason Statham, The Rock et Vin Diesel ont été intronisées seigneurs planétaires du royaume de la virilité.

TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE ; AN OLD MAN, A YOUNG MAN, AND LIFE'S GREATEST LESSON

Maybe it was a grandparent, or a teacher or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and searching, and gave you sound advice to help you make your way through it. For Mitch Albom, that person was Morrie Schwartz, his college professor from nearly twenty years ago. Maybe, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as you made your way, and the insights faded. Wouldn't you like to see that person again, ask the bigger questions that still haunt you? Mitch Albom had that second chance. He rediscovered Morrie in the last months of the older man's life. Knowing he was dying of ALS - or motor neurone disease - Mitch visited Morrie in his study every Tuesday, just as they used to back in college. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final 'class': lessons in how to live. TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE is a magical chronicle of their time together, through which Mitch shares Morrie's lasting gift with the world.

Sometimes destiny is written on the wall.
Paris, 1788.
After the death of their beloved father, Sofi and Lara accept work at the Oberst company, renowned for producing beautifully intricate wallpaper. But they soon notice a peculiar pattern in the designs: the same woman featured over and over again, the late wife of the owner, who died in mysterious circumstances and whose tragically short life is memorialised in the paper.
As Sofi''s political fervour grows, Lara attracts the interest of the factory owner''s son Josef. But there is something uncannily familiar about their interactions. Is Lara paranoid, or is her life at the factory mirroring the scenes illustrated on the wallpaper that lines her bedchamber?
Meanwhile Josef''s new wife, Hortense, hates her life in Paris. Young, spoiled and aristocratic, she feels herself above the world of the factory. But she too becomes obsessed with the woman whose life is illustrated on the walls of her new home. With the mobs growing ever more violent, is she in danger of meeting the same untimely fate as the last Mrs Oberst?
Soon the lives of Sofi, Lara and Hortense collide in ways they couldn''t have imagined. And as the fire of Revolution burns across France, can these three women escape a destiny that seems pre-ordained? -

Du "ouèche" de Riad au "tchô" de Zep.
Aussi déconneurs que discrets, les deux pointures de la BD francophone chuchotent et gloussent en abordant leur grand oeuvre : l'enfance, toute l'enfance, de la plus rigolote à la plus anxiogène. Or, pour la comprendre, encore faut-il en parler la langue. Zep et Riad Sattouf en sont experts. De « tchô » à « ouèche » en passant par l'incompréhensible « c'est pas », ils ont retranscrit, imaginé et même influencé le parler de toute une génération de (pré)ados. Ce dialogue était l'occasion d'en disséquer les codes, d'en éplucher le vocabulaire, et d'en tirer quelques hilarités. -

Poings communs.
Vingt ans et des chemins de vie radicalement différents séparent les deux hommes. La boxe et le combat, fut-il politique, les rapprochent. Ils en discutent longuement, abordant le stress d'avant match ou d'avant plateau télé, le peu de reconnaissance que reçoivent les boxeurs et les politiciens français, ou encore l'étonnante société que forme chaque salle de boxe, en rassemblant des populations éparpillées.
