The ancient path twists and turns. In Wilde Grove, the initiation continues and those following the ancient path in and out of the Wildwood have much to learn. And come to terms with. Erin feels like a changed woman, but still there is more for her to do. The ancestors are never far from us, and sometimes they need healing as much as we do. It isn't only Erin who discovers this fact, but Winsome and Morghan must struggle with the consequences of not only their own actions, but the actions of those who lived and died in Wilde Grove before their own time. But wild magic has many secrets - and many gifts, for those who would learn its ways.

L¿Histoire du Soldat est un conte de Charles Ferdinand Ramuz sur une musique d¿Igor Stravinsky.En troquant avec le diable son violon contre un livre qui prédit la fortune, un soldat découvre qüil a perdu trois ans de sa vie et que sa famille l¿a oublié. Amour ou richesse¿? Il va devoir choisir.«¿Étrange rencontre¿» que celle de ces deux immenses créateurs¿; profitable à l¿un comme à l¿autre. Précieuse pour Stravinsky à une étape particulièrement difficile de sa vie, marquante pour Ramuz dont l¿écriture va se faire encore plus audacieuse et novatrice comme en témoignent les textes écrits entre 1917 et 1920. Nul doute, la grande prose poétique de Chant de notre Rhône (1920), les Morceaux qui formeront le recueil de Salutation paysanne et qui feront scandale en 1920, ont bénéficié de la rencontre avec le musicien, de leurs recherches communes. Jean-Louis Pierre Président de l¿association « Les Amis de Ramuz »

The beloved multimillion-copy-bestselling novel and basis of the Tony Award-winning musical and movie, in a deluxe hardback edition with green stained edges, a ribbon marker, and an elegant foil-stamped cover.With millions of copies in print around the world, Gregory Maguire's Wicked is established not only as a commentary on our time but as a novel to revisit for years to come. Wicked relishes the inspired inventions of L. Frank Baum's 1900 novel, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, while playing sleight of hand with our collective memories of the 1939 MGM film starring Margaret Hamilton (and Judy Garland). In this fast-paced, fantastically real, and supremely entertaining novel, Maguire has populated the largely unknown world of Oz with the power of his own imagination. Years before Dorothy and her dog crash-land, another little girl makes her presence known in Oz. This girl, Elphaba, is born with emerald-green skin--no easy burden in a land as mean and poor as Oz, where superstition and magic are not strong enough to explain or overcome the natural disasters of flood and famine. Still, Elphaba is smart, and by the time she enters Shiz University, she becomes a member of a charmed circle of Oz's most promising young citizens.But Elphaba's Oz is no utopia. The Wizard's secret police are everywhere. Animals--those creatures with voices, souls, and minds--are threatened with exile. Young Elphaba, green and wild and misunderstood, is determined to protect the Animals--even if it means combating the mysterious Wizard, even if it means risking her single chance at romance. Ever wiser in guilt and sorrow, she can find herself grateful when the world declares her a witch. And she can even make herself glad for that young girl from Kansas. Recognized as an iconoclastic tour de force on its initial publication, the novel has inspired the blockbuster musical of the same name--one of the longest-running plays in Broadway history. Popular, indeed. But while the novel's distant cousins hail from the traditions of magical realism, mythopoeic fantasy, and sprawling nineteenth-century sagas of moral urgency, Maguire's Wicked is as unique as its green-skinned witch.
