Story0
Geulwoll is a Korean word for ‘letter’. It is also the name of a small, unassuming letter shop, located on the third floor of a shabby building in the bustling heart of Seoul. People visit from all over to write and send letters to loved ones – and to strangers. This book is not about rules or right answers for writing letters. It is about embracing the power of what happens when you choose to carve out the time to write them.

A Man of Letters traces the life, career, and commentaries on controversial issues of Thomas Sowell over a period of more than four decades through his letters to and from family, friends, and public figures ranging from Milton Friedman to Clarence Thomas, David Riesman, Arthur Ashe, William Proxmire, Vernon Jordan, Charles Murray, Shelby Steele, and Condoleezza Rice.

In 1762, 22-year old James Boswell left Edinburg for London. This portion of his personal journals documents the nine months that followed. Filled with detail, description, and zest for life, Boswell's London Journal provides a frank and accurate picture of both the young man and London in the early 1760s. While many of Boswell's journals have been published, this one gained popularity for its racier entries as well as its descriptions of Boswell's first encounter with Samuel Johnson.

Delle 820 lettere scritte da Van Gogh nell'arco della sua breve esistenza ben 651 sono indirizzate al fratello Theo: il primo a comprenderne il talento e a incoraggiarne la vocazione, e il solo che non gli negò mai l'indispensabile sostegno morale e finanziario. Pochi artisti hanno rivelato così tanto di sé stessi nei propri scritti.

Funny, poignant and reflective, The Weight of a Cherry Blossom is a fable of rootlessness and belonging in the modern world. It is equal parts a story of urban loneliness and self-discovery and of the healing powers of kinship and love. Revisiting the awkwardness of adolescence and the chaos of growing up, it looks the foibles of adulthood irreverently in the eye.

Every day, President Obama received 10,000 letters from ordinary American citizens. Every night, he read 10 of them before going to bed. This is the story of how they shaped his presidency. Together they reveal the diary of a nation. They wrote to Obama out of gratitude and desperation, in their darkest times of need, with anger, fear and respect. To Obama is an intimate look at one man's relationship with the American people, and at a time when empathy intersected with politics in the White House.

La dernière guerre, Marguerite Duras l’a vécue tout à la fois comme femme dont le mari avait été déporté, comme résistante, mais aussi comme écrivain. Lucide, étonnée, désespérée parfois, elle a pendant ces années tenu un journal, écrit des textes que lui inspiraient tout ce qu’elle voyait, ce qu’elle vivait, les gens qu’elle rencontrait ou affrontait. Ce sont des extraits de son journal que Marguerite Duras a réunis dans un recueil de nouvelles, La douleur. La première d’entre elles porte le même titre. Adeline d’Hermy a choisi de la lire.

Caterina da Siena (1347-1380) fu dichiarata prima santa nel 1461 e poi Dottore della Chiesa nel 1970. È compatrona d'Italia e d'Europa. Caterina, pressoché analfabeta, veniva aiutata nelle sue opere di carità da un gruppo di uomini e donne, fratelli spirituali, detti la "Bella Brigata". A questi stessi dettava le sue lettere, spesso dettandole contemporaneamente a più "scrivani". Scrisse circa 380 lettere, durante gli ultimi dieci anni della sua vita.

"Le nouveau monde ne sera pas construit par ceux qui restent à l'écart les bras croisés, mais par ceux qui sont dans l'arène, les vêtements réduits en haillons par la tempête et le corps mutilé par les événements." Arrêté en 1962 par le gouvernement d'apartheid d'Afrique du Sud, Nelson Mandela a passé vingt-sept ans en prison - du 7 novembre 1962 au 11 février 1990. Au cours de ces 10 052 jours de détention, il fut un épistolier prolifique, écrivant des centaines de lettres aux autorités inflexibles, à ses compagnons de lutte, aux gouvernements officiels, mais aussi à sa femme Winnie, à ses cinq enfants et, plus tard, à ses petits-enfants.

"Lettera al padre" ("Brief an den Vater") è una lettera di Franz Kafka al padre, scritta nel 1919 e pubblicata postuma nel 1952. In questa lettera, come nei "Quaderni in ottavo", lo scrittore rende con chiarezza quei presupposti filosofici e psicologici che nei suoi romanzi tanto sono nascosti dallo stile e dai temi volutamente surreali e oscuri.

Alors, elle écrivait un journal. Avait-elle le pressentiment que très loin dans l'avenir, on le lirait ?" Patrick Modiano

Texte intégral lu par Thomas Compère Morel. "La Lettre au père" de Franz Kafka est l'une des œuvres majeures du XXe siècle. L'une des particularités de cette "Lettre au père", écrite en 1919, est que son destinataire n'en eut pas connaissance. La passion que Thomas Compère Morel nourrit pour Franz Kafka et pour sa "Lettre au père" nous a impressionnés. Son rapport fusionnel avec cette œuvre incomparable nous a convaincus qu'il pouvait en faire une lecture qui restitue la force et la beauté du texte.

Quand on enferme la vérité sous terre, elle s'y amasse, elle y prend une force telle d'explosion, que, le jour où elle éclate, elle fait tout sauter avec elle. On verra bien si l'on ne vient pas de préparer, pour plus tard, le plus retentissant des désastres. Zola publie en 1898 l'article "J'accuse !" dans "L'Aurore", pour dénoncer l'incroyable erreur judiciaire portée à l'encontre d'Alfred Dreyfus.

Libertin, épicurien, esthète et séducteur incorrigible, Giacomo Casanova incarne le 18e siècle. Grâce à ses mémoires où il consigne ses moindres faits et gestes, de 1725 à 1798, nous pénétrons dans l'intime du 18e, des menus, des lieux, des pensées, des goûts de l'époque. Rédigées en français, ses mémoires, dont le manuscrit est accessible sur le site de la B.N.F., expriment son amour, immense, des femmes et de la vie, avec une précision parfois croustillante et une verve toujours savoureuse.
