Summary

Slender, elegant, refined, seductive, Arsène Lupin, gentleman-burglar by trade, is the model of the "Belle Epoque" dandy. His intelligence, his culture, his talents as an illusionist between Fregoli and Robert-Houdin are at the service of astonishing nerve. But this accomplished man of the world is also an anarchist at heart who plays with social conventions with marvelous insolence.

Arsène Lupin, gentleman-burglar is a collection of short stories written by Maurice Leblanc and recounting the adventures of Arsène Lupin.

The first short story of this collection was published in July 1905 in the newspaper Je sais tout. This was the first short story featuring Arsène Lupin. This one having success, Maurice Leblanc is encouraged to write the continuation, in several short stories. What will be done until 1907.
Available since: 04/18/2022.

    "My Life in Poems" is the fusion of cherished memories woven with our parents, grandparents, cousins, friends, and soulmates. 
    In the digital world, where life is virtually driven, there is a feeling of void many times. That’s when we reminisce about our golden days from childhood, memories of adulthood, deep emotions, and the journey of transformation. 
    "My Life in Poems" is a memoir of experiences carefully chosen from the bouquet of soulful moments, instrumental in our evolution, guiding us towards self-realization. The poems also journey through the valley of change, slowly turning us into someone we couldn’t recognize anymore. In these years of ups and downs, while we were living, were we truly living? 
    This question keeps repeating itself as we transition from one place to another, fulfilling someone else’s happiness. The "me" in me is missing. That is why when we were writing these poems, they offered deep insight into all the phases of our lives and the truth behind those lonely and scary moments. The question lurked: will we ever reach our goal? 
    Whether you are a teenager, in your mid-career, or spending time with your grandchildren, these poems will create curiosity and an urge to discover the voice of your inner being. 
    Listen to know more about these soulful revelations from the authors of bestseller romantic, thriller, and adventure fiction novels, and winners of many literary awards. 
    This compilation serves as an endeavor to motivate readers to forge connections with the unspoken voices within, experiencing the magnificent language of our souls. May you find resonance in these verses and derive inspiration from the silent narratives that echo within.

    Through poems about fossilised fruit seeds and the sofa where Emily Brontë died, Wetton questions how we curate the lives of those living and dead in a pamphlet about looking, processing, and memorialising. Whether considering preserved wedding-cakes, a non-existent art exhibition or a human scream, these poems speak to the impossibility of containment and question our ability to map and categorise.
    This is a pamphlet of poems about the stories that we tell ourselves, the memories that we construct, and the ways that we value and devalue people, animals and objects alike.

    Ronald Franklin Saia was born a grandson to an Italian from Sutera, Sicily. Growing up in rural Kentucky gave Ronald a deep feeling in his soul for the outdoors. He hunted, trapped, rode his buckskin mare Old Beauty, slept under the stars, and cooked super over an open camp fire. He is a real American partriot. While Ronald worked his way through college, he lived at home with his precious mother, Mary, and father, Victor. What a blessing it was for God to have chosen them for his parents. 
    For a time, he worked in Venezuela where he met his wife, Barb. He has traveled in South and Central America, and Europe. Ronald's inspirational poetry is straight from his heart and represents a true appreciation for creation and God's works along with life's experiences and personal observations.

    "Browne’s narration of her work is masterful, capturing a range of emotion through inflection, cadence, and volume. It’s an unfettered celebration of Black resilience that will leave listeners satisfied, yet eager to hear more from this gifted poet." - Library Journal, Starred Review 
     
    From Lincoln Center’s inaugural poet-in-residence comes this unflinching collection that intricately mines the experience of being a Black woman in America. 
     
    A highly anticipated volume from critically acclaimed poet Mahogany L. Browne, Chrome Valley is at once a luminous hymn and a battle cry. Spanning the course of her own life as well as embodying centuries of virulent history, this collection pays solemn tribute to the women who came before her. Musically effervescent yet cutting poems capture the peculiar joys and pangs of Black girlhood: “you ain’t had freedom / ’til you climb on a bus 62 / & head to the closet mall / for a girl fight”; while others explore the inherent grief of motherhood, rhythmically intoning names like the tolling of a church bell: “Because Lesley McSpadden / Because Mamie Till / Because a Black mother know ain’t no song for that empty in ya belly.” Transcendent and grounded, funny and furious, the poems within bring depth to a movement, announcing Mahogany L. Browne as one of the most important poetic voices of our time.
