Sans Patriarcat

Mathilde Morrigan

À QUOI RESSEMBLERAIT UN MONDE SANS PATRIARCAT ? Le patriarcat est partout et nous avons toujours vécu avec. Et si, pour mieux comprendre ses conséquences et son influence, nous imaginions un monde sans patriarcat ? Pour cela, l’autrice revient sur divers sujets qui bousculent le mouvement féministe et nos pensées post-metoo. Elle y aborde le conditionnement et les constructions sociales, le contrôle des corps imposé par le patriarcat, les violences, ou encore les structures patriarcales qui permettent le maintien du patriarcat à notre ère. Chaque idée est introduite par une phrase qui met en lumière ce que seraient nos vies sans le patriarcat : « Sans patriarcat, nous n’aurions pas grandi en pensant être le sexe faible et fragile », « Sans patriarcat, l’acte sexuel ne tournerait pas exclusivement autour de la pénétration », « Sans patriarcat, notre valeur ne dépendrait pas de la taille de nos seins, fesses et cuisses », « Sans patriarcat, il ne m’aurait pas forcé.e », « Sans patriarcat, moi, victime, j’aurais été crue et entendue »… Des phrases chocs, à travers lesquelles de nombreuses femmes se reconnaîtront, à travers lesquelles de nombreux hommes comprendront bien plus le poids du patriarcat sur la condition féminine.

Pachinko

Min Jin Lee

In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a crippled fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger at the seashore near her home in Korea. He promises her the world, but when she discovers she is pregnant—and that her lover is married—she refuses to be bought. Instead, she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle, sickly minister passing through on his way to Japan. But her decision to abandon her home, and to reject her son's powerful father, sets off a dramatic saga that will echo down through the generations. Richly told and profoundly moving, Pachinko is a story of love, sacrifice, ambition, and loyalty. From bustling street markets to the halls of Japan's finest universities to the pachinko parlors of the criminal underworld, Lee's complex and passionate characters—strong, stubborn women, devoted sisters and sons, fathers shaken by moral crisis—survive and thrive against the indifferent arc of history.

Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees

Patrick Horvath

Live, laugh, shed blood. Dexter meets Richard Scarry’s Busy, Busy Town in this twisted debut graphic novel. Don’t murder the locals—this is small-town serial killer, upstanding citizen, and adorable brown bear Samantha Strong’s cardinal rule. A sea of potential victims is in the city just beyond the forest, but when you’ve worked as hard as Sam to build a cozy life and a thriving business in a community surrounded by friendly fellow animal folk, warm decor, and the aroma of cedar trees and freshly baked apple pie, the last thing you want is to disturb the peace. So imagine Sam's indignation when one of Woodbrook’s own meets a grisly, mysterious demise. You wouldn’t blame her for doing anything it takes to hunt down her rival before the town self-destructs and Sheriff Patterson starts barking up the wrong tree.
