Every month, the editorial team shares with you its literary favorites. But today, it’s up to the Le Neuf bookstore to present its three favorite books to you.

The author Hélène Gestern© JF Paga

Hélène Gestern – Cézembre

Cézembre is a small island in located in the bay of Saint-Maloit is also now the title of a novel in which the sea is the heroine, coupled with an incredible family story.

The historian Yann de Kérambrun, after the death of his father, inherited the family house. He discovered the archives of his ancestors including those of his great-grandfather Octave, who founded in 1903 a shipping company that will become one of the flagships of the local industry. Yann will read the notebooks to understand this life that we guess is full of secrets. A magnificent tribute to beauty, to women and men of good will. The great novel of the summer Hélène Gestern, of which we had already greatly appreciated 555 published in folio, is a great lady of letters.

Editions Grasset – €24

Joan Samson- Deliver us from good

Harlowe, a small rural town in New Hampshire not far from Boston, where the Moore family has always lived. This peaceful order is gradually brought to change from the day Perly Dunsmore appears.

This auctioneer, a knowledgeable, refined, polite and educated globetrotter, begins holding auctions in an effort to improve security and make the small community prosper. And for this, he digs into the cellars, attics and barns of his constituents… But the requests are becoming more and more pressing, and the objects and trinkets are increasingly rare…
Blackmail, threats, violence, how far is this mysterious character willing to go?

A novel that builds pressure, little by little… You’re waiting for the pressure cooker to explode… But, haven’t you already sold it to your auctioneer?

Laurena

Éditions Monsieur Toussaint Louverture – €16.50

Victor Malzac – Creatine

Shit… This one, I read it little by little, I don’t devour it, I savor it, and the more I advance, the more I realize that, behind the humor and the completely eccentric language and the almost crazy side clownish, hides…

Martin

Éditions Scribes – €21
