The Family Way

Tony Parsons est aussi abordable qu'étonnamment ordinaire, mais son message est unique et révolutionnaire. Il est délivré avec douceur, mais assorti d'une autorité impersonnelle qui visiblement émane de la clarté absolue. Ce texte éclaire l'esprit plus qu'il ne cherche à satisfaire la curiosité du mental. Le chercheur est orienté vers la découverte qu'il est déjà l'illumination même qu'il convoite avec tant d'âpreté. A travers la perception directe et radicale de "ce qui est", Tony Parsons nous invite à vivre notre vie dans une perspective totalement différente, centrée sur la conscience infinie de notre vrai soi. La nature de la libération est directe, simple et aussi naturelle que la respiration.

Ce qui est

Vous avez le coeur bien accroché ? Plongez dans les recoins les plus sombres de l'âme humaine avec le meilleur thriller anglais de l'année. Ils sont sept. Ils se connaissent depuis vingt ans, tous anciens élèves de la très prestigieuse école de Potter's Field. Des hommes venus des meilleures familles, riches et privilégiés. Mais quelqu'un a décidé de les égorger, un à un. Quel secret effroyable les lie ? Sur quel mensonge ont-ils construit leur vie ? L'inspecteur Max Wolfe va mener l'enquête, depuis les bas-fonds de Londres jusqu'aux plus hautes sphères du pouvoir. Au péril de sa vie.

Des garçons bien élevés

This is the story of how we grow old - how we give up the dreams of youth for something better - and how many chances we have to get it right.

 George Bailey has been given the gift we all dream of - the chance to live his life again. After suffering a heart attack at the age of 42, George is given the heart of a 19-year-old - and suddenly everything changes.

 He is a friend to his teenage son and daughter - and not a stern Home Secretary, monitoring their every move.

 He makes love to his wife all night long - instead of from midnight until about five past. And suddenly he wants to change the world, just as soon as he shakes off his hangover.

 But George Bailey discovers that being young again is not all it is cracked up to be - and what he actually wants more than anything in the universe is to have his old life back.
