Alexander Pope was celebrated for his command of classical Greek and produced seminal translations of the Iliad and the Odyssey. Prior to the preparation of these translations, Pope took advantage of his mastery of the classical style and also his waspish wit to compose a burlesque epic about the theft of a lock of hair. The incident that inspired Pope was related to him by his friend John Caryll. Lord Petre had cut off a lock of the hair of Arabella Fermor, whom he was courting at the time, without asking the lady's permission.

Story
Un roman poignant et lumineux qui raconte le deuil, la solidarité et l'espoir, incarné avec justesse et sensibilité par Alice de Ferran Astrid a tout perdu. À quarante ans, plus rien ne la retient, alors elle part. Elle achète sans l'avoir visitée une maison isolée dans la région montagneuse et sauvage du Mercantour. Parmi ses bagages, un carton marqué d'une croix rouge, ce qu'il lui reste de sa vie passée. Soraya a tout laissé derrière elle. Sa Syrie natale, sa famille, ses amis, son insouciance. Elle traverse la montagne pour rejoindre la frontière française en se cachant de la police.

Story
Isolés en pleine forêt, sept chasseurs et chasseuses prisonniers de la neige vont tenter de survivre et de lutter contre la folie qui les guette. Survient le drame. Un drame dont le lecteur se rendra complice... malgré lui.Est-ce l'alcool en carafon, le cuir brun, le mobilier vieux chêne, le feu qui crépite dans la cheminée ? Ce climat anglais où l'on s'assassine en grignotant des scones et en buvant du thé ? Il lui semble que chaque chose est bien à sa place, que chaque personne autour de cette table est un peu trop racée pour être honnête.

Story
La famille Praline est une famille unie et pleine d'amour. Enfin... la famille Praline est une famille unie... Oui, bon... la famille Praline est... une famille. Le précédent Noël des Praline n'était pas simplement raté. Ce fut plutôt une catastrophe de taille cosmique, qui a laissé toute la famille traumatisée. Surtout les deux sœurs, Nathaline et Barbara, qui, après s'être battues à grands jets de lait de poule, ne se sont pas adressé la parole pendant un an. Hélas, inexorablement, la période des fêtes revient.
