Et chaque année, aux alentours des vacances, ses livres fleurissent dans les Relais de gare, promesses de petites lectures légères pour le train ou la plage. De la « chick lit », vraiment ? Derrière ces abords de « littérature pour gonzesse » ou de « romance urbaine », Grimaldi parle de sujets graves : de dépression, de deuil, de ruptures… Et remet en question ce que les lectures de vacances peuvent nous apporter.

The EssayWilliam StyronThe 1960s are celebrated for the paradigm shift in American society. This shift was reflected in art and culture as well as politics. But these great changes were not accomplished without controversy. Even in the most slow-flowing art form, literature, great controversies burst out that are now forgotten, but they anticipate what is going on with today's cancel culture. They occurred without the multiplier effect of social media but dominated not just book pages but the society at large. Michael Goldfarb looks at five authors and their books on the receiving end of this cancel culture in...

LPP PodcastThe Ethics of Fighting Disease MythsThere’s no need to contest or censor divergent views on addiction and mental illness as told, for instance, by Koren Zailckas, William Styron, and T Kira Madden. They are effortlessly assimilated into the big ball of wax of the standard disease theory.
The process is aided and abetted by leading theorists and commentators like Sally Satel, David Brooks, Maia Szalavitz, and the New York Times.
Stanton, on the other hand, impolitely disputes these things, while Zach tries to toe the line between confrontation and understanding.

They were right. Having been raised in a politically active household as the daughter of author William Styron ( Sophie's Choice) and poet/activist Rose Styron ( Amnesty International), Al did in fact know everyone.

Primitive Culture: A Star Trek History and Culture PodcastWould You Rather?Star Trek’s Impossible Choices. Since the publication of William Styron’s novel Sophie’s Choice in 1979, the title has entered the cultural lexicon as a term meaning a difficult situation in which a person must choose between two equally deserving alternatives. Two Star Trek episodes-Discovery’s “Lethe” and Voyager’s “Latent Image,” both written by Joe Menosky-borrow the story’s horrifying central conceit: a mother forced to choose between her children. In Jeri Taylor’s Voyager novel Mosaic, we learn that a similarly unbearable choice early in Kathryn Janeway’s Starfleet career almost destroyed her chances at command, plunging her...
