Book excerpt: Mrs Jay Coothtoo, postière de Gloucesterdale, est retrouvée égorgée, enfermée dans un coffre fort dont elle tient la clé, serrée entre ses doigts rapaces. Le détective Alfred Stophen, secondé par le commissaire Jeroboam, mène une enquête haletante. Face à la puissance conjuguée de leurs deux cerveaux surdimensionnés, il faut la démesure d'un génie du mal pour échapper à leur sagacité.Face au souriant dentiste Sir Oscar, au sinistre épicier des hauts plateaux, Gérard Ayfiémévisit, au prudent pharmacien Lunamoi ou au mystérieux docteur Joulesound, Alfred doit penser profondément. Si profondément que sa pensée en perdra le souffle et finira par se noyer dans les abîmes sous-marins de son inconscient. Reprenant l'affaire depuis le début, il lui faudra classer dans son esprit les faits dans leur ordre d'apparition."Buvant une gorgée d'alcool, il chercha le nom de la première victime. Il ne s'en souvenait plus. Dans des brumes incertaines, il se demanda si l'affaire concernait sa mère, ou le vieux Joulesound".

Download or read book Quoi de neuf dix written by Paul DOOZ and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-05-11 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans ce recueil de nouvelles, Paul Dooz explore les différentes facettes de la rencontre amoureuse, quand elle est contrecarrée par un obstacle de taille : la timidité, le temps, le crime, l'orgueil, la maladresse, qui sont autant de facteurs susceptibles de faire échouer les premiers pas vers un couple. Oscillant entre humour, fantaisie ou désespérance, ces nouvelles rappellent le style de ses romans précédents, depuis la fantaisie anglo-saxonne du Crime du coffre, l'humour débridé des Trois imams ou la noirceur du Crime de la Piste. Ce recueil contient également trois nouvelles pour enfants, et deux de science fiction, l'une d'elle ayant été publiée dans un grand quotidien national. Cette édition contient une nouvelle inédite (les orphelins), qui n'a jamais été publiée dans les tirages antérieurs.

Lorsque l'imam Jimenoz, chef du Mollaland, prononce la sentence qui condamne l'auteur d'un essai controversé sur le climat de son pays, les services anti-terroristes français sont sur les dents. Pour parvenir jusqu'à l'auteur, l'ambassade du Mollaland décide alors de recruter trois malfrats charentais.Déjouant les pronostics, ces trois pieds nickelés vont gagner la confiance de Rosanna, la fille de l'éditeur, au point d'occuper son domicile avec l'aide d'un oncle farfelu et d'une brochette de cousines délurées.Mais la situation de complique fortement : si l'ambassadeur du Mollaland en France sabote secrètement les efforts de ses compatriotes pour appliquer la sentence, la maison d'édition va être rachetée par un prête-nom, qui aura ainsi les mains libres pour trouver l'auteur abhorré.

Download or read book The Courtesan and the Gigolo written by Aaron Freundschuh and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-11 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intrigue began with a triple homicide in a luxury apartment building just steps from the Champs-Elyseés, in March 1887. A high-class prostitute and two others, one of them a child, had been stabbed to death—the latest in a string of unsolved murders targeting women of the Parisian demimonde. Newspapers eagerly reported the lurid details, and when the police arrested Enrico Pranzini, a charismatic and handsome Egyptian migrant, the story became an international sensation. As the case descended into scandal and papers fanned the flames of anti-immigrant politics, the investigation became thoroughly enmeshed with the crisis-driven political climate of the French Third Republic and the rise of xenophobic right-wing movements. Aaron Freundschuh's account of the "Pranzini Affair" recreates not just the intricacies of the investigation and the raucous courtroom trial, but also the jockeying for status among rival players—reporters, police detectives, doctors, and magistrates—who all stood to gain professional advantage and prestige. Freundschuh deftly weaves together the sensational details of the case with the social and political undercurrents of the time, arguing that the racially charged portrayal of Pranzini reflects a mounting anxiety about the colonial "Other" within France's own borders. Pranzini's case provides a window into a transformational decade for the history of immigration, nationalism, and empire in France.

Download or read book An Algebraic Introduction to Complex Projective Geometry written by Christian Peskine and published by . This book was released on 1843 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this introduction to commutative algebra, the author choses a route that leads the reader through the essential ideas, without getting embroiled in technicalities. He takes the reader quickly to the fundamentals of complex projective geometry, requiring only a basic knowledge of linear and multilinear algebra and some elementary group theory. The author divides the book into three parts. In the first, he develops the general theory of noetherian rings and modules. He includes a certain amount of homological algebra, and he emphasizes rings and modules of fractions as preparation for working with sheaves. In the second part, he discusses polynomial rings in several variables with coefficients in the field of complex numbers. After Noether's normalization lemma and Hilbert's Nullstellensatz, the author introduces affine complex schemes and their morphisms; he then proves Zariski's main theorem and Chevalley's semi-continuity theorem. Finally, the author's detailed study of Weil and Cartier divisors provides a solid background for modern intersection theory. This is an excellent textbook for those who seek an efficient and rapid introduction to the geometric applications of commutative algebra.
