October 19, 2024 by Au Moulin des Lettres Partenaire
The bookstore is full of books of all kinds, gems to discover this month. Here are three novels selected by our partner La Librairie au moulin des lettres in Épinal.
In search of life – Lida Turpeinen
The author takes us on a ship in the year 1741. There we will meet a zoologist named Georg W. Steller. Scientists then travel the Earth to count its beauties and Steller is one of those men who sacrifices everything to science. During this mission, he discovered a marine mammal, the “rhytine”. An enormous and harmless animal, it will disappear from the surface of the globe just 30 years after its discovery. Through this expedition story, Iida Turpeinen also tells of the disastrous impact of Man on the natural environment. A gem from this literary season!
Translated from Finnish by Sébastien Cagnoli
Editions Autre – August 2024 – €22.50
Fierce souls – Marie Vingtras
After Blizzard, breathtaking in its mastery and astonishing narrative construction, Marie Vingtras returns by once again brilliantly handling the codes of the American-style noir novel by making them her own: you will therefore find a murder told in four seasons by four narrators and an American town hitherto without history, Mercy, but which harbors jealousies, intolerance and prejudices. Under the guise of a police investigation, the author confronts numerous themes. A second novel and still just as much reading pleasure!

Laurence
Ink Blood – Nena Labussière
A disease called “blue blood” is spreading in the city of Kaalun, in the center of the Mixed Lands. While no one knows where this disease comes from, how it is transmitted and even less how to treat it, the city must face an even more insidious threat, because the news of the imminent death of the crown prince has spread.
Immerse yourself in a fantastic world where adventure, dangers, secrets mix in a story that keeps you entertained until the end! Big favorite recommended from 13 years old!
