Discover the latest favorites of the editorial journalists unearthed in the new arrivals section of bookstores:
Past lives
The Waltz of Souls by Bernard Werber. Bernard Werber reconnects with his initial loves. Not the ants, no, but back to the good old days of the Thanatonautes. Werber is never better than as a storyteller. It’s a book to open by the fire. With a steaming herbal tea. A struggle of good and evil that dates back to Sapiens versus Neanderthals. An exploration of past lives. A rereading of history. What Werber does best: opening perspectives, new points of view.
And regardless of the facilities sometimes, we read Werber with the eye of a child. (At Albin Michel, 624 pages, €22.90)
