Friday, March 16, 2007, at 5:30 PM

In February 2005, “The Last Testament” was a revelation in French thrillers!
Eagerly awaited by his fans, the new investigation of Nathan Love – The Last Weapon (Ed. Au diable vauvert) – confirms today the formidable talent of Philip Le Roy!
“Paris. During a dinner, Annabelle Domange steps out to walk her dog. Her guests will never see her again. No one saw her leave the building.”
Exceptional meeting with Roger Hanin
Saturday, March 16, 2007, at 4 PM
Of course, “Far from Kharkov” (Ed. Grasset) is still a quirky novel – but more “polished” than usual… But that’s how Roger Hanin explores his imagination: introducing a dose (or even two) of delirium into the logic of the world. Because delirium, according to him, shifts the truth and displays it better.
Roger Hanin might explain, during the launch of this novel, the autobiographical background that underlies it. But, maybe, he will prefer to remain silent. With him, you never know…
Sweet France
Tuesday, March 20, 2007, at 5:30 PM
Meet with author Karine Tuil
Karine Tuil, a thirty-year-old French writer, is mistakenly arrested with illegal immigrants during a rough identity check. Half fascinated, half voyeuristic, she decides to pretend to be a Romanian immigrant and unintentionally becomes a victim of the bureaucratic machinery…
On this very topical subject! Karine Tuil raises the right questions.
“Sweet France” (Ed. Grasset) is a novel-investigation about a powerful issue, unfortunately driven by pre-electoral news; the writing is both mastered and emotive.
Piaf, My Friend
Thursday, March 22, 2007, at 4:30 PM
Meet with author Ginou Richer around her book “Piaf, My Friend” (Ed. Denoël).
Ginou will never be Piaf’s secretary or lady-in-waiting, she will simply be her “best friend”. For 15 years, Ginou experienced Edith’s daily life. Her friends, her loves, her lovers, her pains. Her superstitions, her fears, her madness. No one can better know, understand, and explain her. Ginou offers a striking portrait of the fragile being hidden behind the legendary singer. She tells us about her Edith.

“THE FEELING OF LOVE”
“In the loving calm of your arms, the gesture of love’s embrace seems to fulfill for the subject a dream of total union with the beloved being,” says R Barthes in “Fragments of a Lover’s Discourse”. The feeling of love stages a singular figure, Being one as two, merging into one with the loved and desired object.
Questioning what this desire to be one that appears in the discourse of love entails, allows us to understand the why and how of the phenomenon of love.

Eiffel in a mini concert
Thursday, March 29, 2007, at 5:30 PM
Led by the couple Romain and Estelle Humeau, Eiffel, through two fiery albums, has proven that if the flame of French rock fears to extinguish, there are still some credible pyrotechnicians to stir up the embers.
Eiffel returns with a new album, “Tandoori”, carried by a chiaroscuro single “My Part of Shadow”, anthem of a generation in doubt.
Concert the same evening at Palais Nikaïa – hall 700 – Ticket office Fnac.

Concert the same evening at Theatre Lino Ventura – Ticket office Fnac.
