Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
The author of Parisian Charm School and Bonjour, Happiness! shares the secrets French women have long known about love and romance. French women know that the gift for attracting men has nothing to do with beauty, dating, or following the rules. They don't listen to Dr. Phil's advice. They don't worry about the care and feeding of their boyfriend. And they certainly don't think men are from Mars. On the contrary, French women's love lives are romantic, sensual, playful, and intense. They conduct their relationships with the same originality and artfulness that they bring to their sense of style. And American women could learn a thing or two from their example. For the first time ever, Jamie Cat Callan gives readers a personalized, guided tour through the corridors of French love. In these pages, you will discover: Why French women always feel sexy The French art of flirtation Why French women walk everywhere and love to be seen Where French women meet men What French women do when their man misbehaves And a delicious recipe for the perfect, amorous meal! "Adorable!"—Erica Jong, New York Times bestselling author of Fear of Flying and Fear of Fifty

Lays
Author: Martin L. Gore
Publisher: Jugurtha Harchaoui
ISBN: 291568541X
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 217
Book Description
Ce volume réunit, pour la première fois sous la forme d'un livre, l'essentiel des textes écrits par Martin Gore pour Depeche Mode. Une sélection de 87 chansons accompagnées de six illustrations originales du légendaire Klaus Voormann. Chaque texte est présenté en anglais, puis fait l'objet d'une traduction fine, permettant de découvrir ces chansons sous un jour inhabituel. Les classiques Walking in My Shoes, Enjoy the Silence, Everything Counts, Strangelove et Fly on Me Windscreen ont connu un succès commercial si massif qu'il est facile d'oublier la délicatesse de langage, l'intemporalité et souvent l'humour pince-sans-rire dont ces textes témoignent. Le présent recueil constitue la célébration d'un des auteurs-compositeurs les plus talentueux et les plus originaux de la musique "pop" de ces 25 dernières années. À l'occasion de la sortie mondiale de l'album Sounds of the universe le 21 avril 2009, il importait de donner la possibilité à ceux déjà conquis par ce répertoire et aux autres, de voir les chansons enfin inscrites noir sur blanc. Ainsi Martin Gore: Lays nous donne pour la première fois l'opportunité de reconsidérer dans son ensemble l'oeuvre écrite de Gore-sans sono, sans lumières-et prendre conscience de sa place importante parmi les grands paroliers de notre temps. Un livre indispensable pour tout passionné de musique. Fan de Depeche Mode ou non, chacun sera sensible à cette rétrospective qui parcourt un fragment singulier et incontournable de l'aventure rock.
