" Dans le brouillard que lèvent les manipulations du passé se perdent bien des libertés. Et d'abord notre capacité à les exercer lucidement. " " La France née du baptême de Clovis " ; " Napoléon, ce tyran " ; " Les soldats de 1914 partis "la fleur au fusil' " ; " L'extrême droite fut seule à collaborer " ; " La gauche s'est opposée au vote des femmes " ; " La colonisation a largement profité aux colonisés ", etc. Autant d'idées reçues tenaces qui, berçant notre vision du passé, endorment nos vigilances. Que nous disent les mythes dont l'histoire de France est chargée ? Au service de quels intérêts ont-ils été forgés ? France Fictions désosse vingt-six exemples concrets d'instrumentalisation du passé, du Moyen Âge à nos jours : vingt-six récits pour certains mythifiés, tous adossés à une part de réel, dont il est possible de retracer les origines. Vingt-cinq historiennes et historiens de renom offrent ici un panorama clair et documenté des réécritures de l'histoire de France, exposant les outils des faussaires du passé, d'hier comme d'aujourd'hui, pour mieux leur résister.

For an ambitious attorney and a rising-star chef, a cross-cultural fake romance takes an unexpected detour in a heartwarming and funny novel by the author of Much Ado About Nada and Ayesha at Last. When Sameera Malik and Tom Cooke meet at a ho-hum holiday party, neither is looking for romance. Sameera’s working ridiculous hours at her law firm and healing from heartache while navigating a recently resolved family estrangement. Tom’s hustling to turn his social media stardom into a real career while fending off his family’s demands to give up his chef dreams and move back home. The two share a few laughs and a samosa-making lesson and go their separate ways. But when one of Tom’s posts starts a viral rumor that they’re a couple, he suggests they keep up the ruse for a few months. It’s a good proposal, and a fauxmance will help Tom grow his popularity, and, in return, he can help Sameera land a wealthy client. The only problem? Their parents. When Sameera’s very Muslim parents insist on meeting Tom’s very not Muslim family over Christmas in rural Alaska, the stage is set for misunderstandings, holiday hijinks, and an epic culture clash. As the Maliks and Cookes exchange holiday traditions and endless opinions on their children’s lives, Sameera and Tom realize they have a lot in common—including an attraction that’s starting to feel very real.
