Giorgio de Chirico. Immagini metafisiche

by Riccardo Dottori

Questo libro di complessa analisi e interpretazione dei dipinti di Giorgio de Chirico è unico nel suo genere, e fortunatamente anche come e-book (non necessariamente per Kindle; l’ePub costa 9,99 euro all’IBS) comprende immagini di buona…

Après avoir lu « La Vérité sur Dix petits nègres » et « L’affaire du chien des Baskerville » (lu en anglais : Sherlock Holmes Was Wrong: Reopening the Case of The Hound of the Baskervilles), je suis définitivement persuadé que la rigueur…

Une bonne introduction à l’histoire de Chine.

The Eighth Detective

Marseille Une ville sous influences

by Pierre Boisserie

Assommante comme histoire et très médiocre graphiquement, cette BD demeure assez instructive pour ceux qui ne connaissent pas Marseille. Mais ça, seulement si le prétexte d’une balade à travers la Marseille qui engendre une discussion en…

Tif et Tondu de Blutch et Robber – Mais où est Kiki ? N/B

The Killings at Kingfisher Hill

by Sophie Hannah

I dare say it’s only with the fourth “New Poirot” that Sophie Hannah finally managed to reach a cunningness comparable to that of the Grande Dame of Golden Age’s Crime. The first three attempts were of unequal quality in my view: I rated…
