| This is one of the best books I've read in a long time. Maybe not for everyone, it is a tough read about the horrors of war, but Daniel Kraus is so inventive that the words explode off the page in a kaleidoscope of imagery and emotion. It's as if he ...more | |

| I had to read this book after learning a bit about the phenomenal history of this bookstore in Winnetka IL. President Jimmy Carter, Jane Fonda, J.K. Rowling and the list goes on. It's almost impossible to believe this little book store could! But it ...more | |

quote
“If we listened to our intellect we'd never have a love affair. We'd never have a friendship. We'd never go in business because we'd be cynical: "It's gonna go wrong." Or "She's going to hurt me." Or,"I've had a couple of bad love affairs, so therefore . . ." Well, that's nonsense. You're going to miss life. You've got to jump off the cliff all the time and build your wings on the way down.” Ray Bradbury”

J’ai beaucoup aimé ce livre que j’ai acheté pendant mon séjour à Paris l’été 2024 pour les J.O. Quel joie d’être à Paris à ce moment-là. Le livre est dense avec d’énorme détails (très français, ça) commençant dans la préhistoire jusqu’à présent. |

“IN THE MID-1950S, Bill Wilson, the cofounder of Alcoholics Anonymous, learned about Osmond and Hoffer’s work with alcoholics. The idea that a drug could occasion a life-changing spiritual experience was not exactly news to Bill W., as he was known in the fellowship. He credited his own sobriety to a mystical experience he had on belladonna, a plant-derived alkaloid with hallucinogenic properties that was administered to him at Towns Hospital in Manhattan in 1934. Few members of AA realize that the whole idea of a spiritual awakening leading one to surrender to a “higher power”—a cornerstone of Alcoholics Anonymous—can be traced to a psychedelic drug trip.”
