Voici ma lettre au Monde Qui ne M'a jamais écrit - Les simples Nouvelles que la Nature disait - Avec une tendre Majesté Emily Dickinson Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) passe sa vie à Amherst, dans la propriété familiale.Tombe amoureuse d'un révérend, qui s'enfuit. Elle écrit des poèmes, ne sait pas ce qu'ils valent (ou fait semblant), prend pour maître un gandin célèbre, Thomas Wentworth Higginson dont la bêtise - un siècle a passé - irradie comme un soleil. Les années filant, elle sort de moins en moins, signe ses lettres « Votre Élève », écrit encore quelques vers, s'intéresse à tout ce qui meurt. Quand elle commence à écrire aux soeurs Norcross, en 1859, Louise a seize ans, Frances treize. Vingt ans plus tard, elles n'ont pas grandi, sont pour Emily les mêmes petites filles imaginaires. Loo a toujours seize ans, Fanny treize. « Je souhaite que nous soyons enfants, écrit-elle à son frère. Je souhaite que nous soyons toujours enfants, comment grandir, je ne sais pas. » La partie de la Correspondance ici traduite - Lettres à T.W. Higginson et aux soeurs Norcross - n'a pu l'être que grâce au remarquable appareil critique de l'édition américaine Harvard University Press. Les poèmes que l'on trouvera en seconde partie de volume parlent d'eux-mêmes.

Serge was a snail without a shell. His mum and his dad were shell-less as well. "You're no more than a SLUG!" the snails at school taunted. I wish I had a shell. It was all that Serge wanted. Serge is not like the snails at school. They call him a horrible name-slug-and even though that's entirely what he is, he wishes for a shell of his own. Feeling like an outcast, Serge sets off on a solo adventure in search of the elusive shell that will make a perfect home-and make him just like everybody else. After some much-needed advice from his friend Fish, he finds himself at the ocean, where many options await: "Big shells and teeny shells/ All the in-betweeny shells/ Pyramid and swirly shells/Altogether curly shells!" But can Serge find the perfect shell, or is he destined to be different forever? A charming, lyrical story with bouncy text, whimsically illustrated by artist Andrea Blinick, Serge the Snail Without A Shell puts a modern twist on a tale as old as time: trying to fit in at all costs, before realizing that maybe being yourself is best of all.

Texte intégral révisé suivi d'une biographie d'Emily Dickinson. Sans titre, au plus bref de simples distiques, au plus long des ballades d'une dizaine de quatrains, ces quelques 140 poèmes choisis parmi les 1775 de l'oeuvre complète, sont les multiples fragments d'une architecture tout en ruptures et en reprises. Considérée aujourd'hui comme l'un des plus grands poètes américains avec Edgar Poe et Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson écrit sur la nature, le temps, l'amour, nos angoisses et nos espérances. Il n'y a jamais chez elle de volonté d'écrire autour d'un thème précis même si la séparation et la mort sont au coeur de sa méditation, souvent fort proche de la poésie métaphysique anglaise. Il ne saurait y avoir non plus de poèmes d'inspiration directement biographique pour elle qui souhaitait "Dire toute la vérité mais en oblique". Poèmes-paysages, scènes bibliques, élégies, sonnets ou apostrophes, c'est de manière discontinue mais selon un système d'échos qu'elle écrit ses poèmes, au fil d'impressions récurrentes et de reprises méditatives. C'est bien cette suite poétique qui témoigne le mieux de sa vie à la fois secrète et expansive, grave et moqueuse, discrète mais audacieusement libre, qui fut une constante méditation sur les paradoxes du visible et de l'invisible, de la parole et du silence.

Cette année-là, le coeur des hauts fourneaux se mit à battre si fort que les cités du pays du fer en ressentirent les vibrations comme une forêt à l'instant du coup de hache fatal... Cette année-là, le coeur de Mario-la-Révolte se mit à battre si fort que celui de Delphine-la-Généreuse lui répondit... Longtemps, bien longtemps après cette année-là, le journaliste Louis Delalande revit, comme à l'envers, les événements dont il fut le témoin. Guidé par un petit cahier rouge auquel Mario avait confié ses colères et ses rêves, au jour le jour, Louis Delalande retrouve les acteurs de la tragédie du pays du fer : Dorande, l'énigmatique directeur de la vieille fonderie de Montrouge, accolée à sa mine comme une sangsue, Benedetti, l'omniprésent et tonitruant dirigeant du syndicat, et aussi Delphine, marquée à tout jamais par ce qu'elle a vécu. Mais, en soulevant les vieilles poussières, et en se livrant à ce jeu de la vérité de Mario, le journaliste court un grand risque... Avec « Noces de fer », Gilbert Mercier signe un roman profondément enraciné dans le minerai lorrain et traversé par le grand souffle de la symphonie inachevée des hauts fourneaux.

Dive into one of the most important figures in American poetry, Emily Dickinson's iconic collection. Characterised by three distinct periods, a sentimental tone lies in her work dating up to the American Civil War, followed by her most creative period and finally rounding off with her last notes before her death in 1886. A major influence on film, music and culture today, fans of Apple TV+'s `Dickinson' series and the 2016 biographical film `A Quiet Passion' can revel in her sometimes flowery, more often than not morbid and occasionally religious observations of life and love in 19th century America. Emily Dickinson (1830-1866) was an American poet, celebrated today as one of the most influential figures in American poetry. Although much of Dickinson's work was not uncovered until after her death, she is remembered as an eccentric and prolific writer, producing close to 2000 poems. Her work spans themes of death and immortality, along with society, nature and spirituality. Pushing the boundaries of literary trends, she crafted poems with unconventional punctuation and atypical wording. Snappy and rhythmic, her work tended to fit the melodies of folk songs. Dickinson remains today a pivotal figure in American culture, with Apple TV+'s `Dickinson' series ideal for literary buffs looking to learn more about her life.
