Seria pouco dizer que os contos de Amora versam sobre relações homossexuais entre mulheres. Também estão aqui o maravilhamento, o estupor e o medo das descobertas. O encontro consigo mesmo, sobretudo quando ele ocorre fora dos padrões, pode trazer desafios ou tornar impossível seguir sem transformação. É necessário avançar, explorar o desconhecido, desestabilizar as estruturas para chegar, enfim, ao sossego de quem vive com honestidade.

Cristina JUDAR

Ana e Joan. A primeira é diurna e contemporânea, bombardeada pelo consumismo e por pressões estéticas e comportamentais. A segunda é noturna, influenciada por noções de ancestralidade, ritos de passagem e intuições do inconsciente. Ambas estão prestes a completar dezoito anos e acompanhamos suas histórias em paralelo, mês a mês, até a data de seus aniversários. Mas não se engane : mais do que o relato da jornada de duas jovens mulheres, Elas marchavam sob o sol é um romance sobre violência, perseguição religiosa, perda de liberdade e direitos, além de ser um libelo sobre a necessidade dos ritos, dos sonhos e da ressignificação dos corpos, questionando papéis sociais através da linguagem vibrante e singular de sua autora.

Mamdouh ADWAN

The world of organized and random oppression that a person lives in this age, is a world that is neither suitable for man nor for the growth of his humanity. Rather, it is a world that cultivates the “animality” of man (i.e. turning him into an animal). The writer deals with this topic like a researcher, but with the mentality, the temperament and the style of a writer. He is not going to propose another theory or refute another.

Our perception of the human being that we should be is not impossible to achieve, even if it comes from a literary or artistic conception. But this perception makes us, “when we see the reality in which we live”, feel the size of our losses during our human journey, which are cumulative and continuous losses as long as the world of oppression and humiliation exists and continues. And we will end up becoming creatures of another type whose name was “man”, or aspired to be a human being, without changing form.

Mamdouh ADWAN‎ was a prolific Syrian writer, poet, playwright and critic. He published his first collection of poetry in 1967 then he published 18 further collections. He has also published 2 novels, 25 plays, translated 23 books from English including the Iliad, the Odyssey and a biography of George Orwell. and Report to Greco by Nikos Kazantzakis, he wrote a number of TV series. He wrote regularly on Arab current affairs, he also taught at the Advanced Institute for Theater in Damascus.

Mamdouh AZZAM

After twenty years of work, Salem finishes his service in the gendarme’s cavalry and returns to his home and family in Deir al-Qarn, bringing with him the only companion who has stayed with him for all those years : his horse. Family members have mixed feelings towards this guest, who will now be part of the family. The storytelling chains take place between the five children and the mother, and as they rotate, they weave stories and build worlds. In this novel, Mamdouh Azzam writes, in a new and different way from his previous novels, a tale about a simple family living its tranquility and fear, its surrender and rejection, its peace and struggles, to move within us endless questions and reflections, while freedom writes in its broad sense the chapter of the end.

Mamdouh AZZAM is a Syrian novelist. His most celebrated and controversial novel is The Palace of Rain, a powerful and daring treatment of taboos in the conservative Druze religion and community. His novel Ascension to Death was translated into English and French. And was adapted into an acclaimed film in 1995.

Collection « Petite bibliothèque d’écologie populaire »

« Printemps silencieux constitue la naissance du mouvement écologiste. » Al Gore

Premier ouvrage sur le scandale des pesticides, Printemps silencieux a entraîné l’interdiction du DDT aux États-Unis. Cette victoire historique d’un individu contre les lobbies de l’industrie chimique a déclenché au début des années 1960 la naissance du mouvement écologiste.
Printemps silencieux est aussi l’essai d’une écologue et d’une vulgarisatrice hors pair. En étudiant l’impact des pesticides sur le monde vivant, du sol aux rivières, des plantes aux animaux, et jusqu’à l’ADN, ce livre constitue l’exposition limpide, abordable par tous, d’une vision écologique du monde.
50 ans après sa conception, on redécouvre Printemps silencieux au moment où l’on commence à s’intéresser, en France, à la philosophie de l’écologie. « Ce n’est pas moi, c’est Rachel Carson qui a inventé l’écologie profonde », affirme en effet le philosophe norvégien Arne Næss.

Vendu à plus de 2 000 000 d’exemplaires, traduit en 16 langues, Printemps silencieux n’est pas seulement un best-seller : c’est un monument de l’histoire culturelle et sociale du XX^e siècle. Point de référence difficilement contournable de l’histoire de l’écologie, cet ouvrage fait partie de la bibliothèque de l’honnête homme.

Comment décrire et nommer ce nouveau continent à la croisée des luttes, des arts et des sciences ? À quelles œuvres collectives ses acteurs sont-ils en train de donner vie ? Quelles sont les grandes dynamiques en cours ? Comment l’écologie transforme-t-elle nos façons de penser et d’agir ?
Une sélection d’auteurs, mais aussi de journalistes, éditeurs, traducteurs, libraires, militants… répond à ces questions.

Collection « Petite bibliothèque d’écologie populaire »

Bien plus qu’un ebook, le livre peut être un support écologiquement vertueux.
Mais depuis vingt ans, l’objet livre et ses usages se sont industrialisés et mondialisés – concentration du monde de l’édition, délocalisation des impressions, essor du numérique…
Cet objet manufacturé séculaire se retrouve aujourd’hui pris en tenaille entre des logiques artisanales et industrielles.
Face aux exigences nouvelles des lecteurs, des questions inédites émergent. Sur quels piliers voulons-nous construire la chaîne du livre de demain ?
Entretiens, écofictions et manifestes : des libraires, des éditeurs, des auteurs et des forestiers invitent à imaginer le livre de l’après-pétrole.

Boubacar HAMA BEIDHI

Cet ouvrage présente des proverbes et des devinettes utilisés dans la vie de tous les jours. La maîtrise des proverbes traduit en effet chez l’individu son enracinement dans sa culture, dont il contribue à maintenir et à pérenniser la valeur. Ils sont utilisés pour rappeler, sous une forme imagée et lapidaire, les règles en vigueur d’une société nécessitant une grande mobilité d’esprit pour discerner, sous leur forme condensée, toute somme d’observation, d’expérience, d’humour.

Boubacar HAMA BEIDHI, conseiller pédagogique à la retraite, a consacré tout son temps à la recherche sur les traditions et l’histoire des Peuls. L’ensemble de ses textes publiés en France et au Niger constitue une vraie bibliothèque de référence, témoignage de la richesse de la culture nigérienne.

Depuis les soulèvements de rue en 2011, les peuples attendent des intellectuels qu’ils les aident à mieux s’orienter dans la sphère publique. Au Maroc, quinze penseurs, ayant en commun une éthique de chercheurs et restant en interaction avec la société, livrent le fond de leurs pensées, puisant dans les héritages humanistes et analysant les réalités politiques et sociales.

Asma LAMRABET

Prix Grand Atlas 2017
Voile, polygamie, égalité dans l’héritage… Asma Lamrabet fait l’inventaire des discriminations imposées aux femmes au nom de l’islam. Elle démontre que la plupart des interprétations médiévales classiques, produit de leur milieu social et culturel, se sont construites à la marge et parfois à l’encontre du Coran, porteur d’une vision beaucoup plus égalitaire et ouverte.
