#1 NEW YORK TIMES AND #1 WALL STREET JOURNAL BESTSELLER An unprecedented behind-the-scenes portrait of the Trump presidency from the…
anonymous senior official whose first words of warning about the president rocked the nation's capital.On September 5, 2018, the New York Times published a bombshell essay and took the rare step of granting its writer anonymity. Described only as "a senior official in the Trump administration," the author provided eyewitness insight into White House chaos, administration instability, and the people working to keep Donald Trump's reckless impulses in check.With the 2020 election on the horizon, Anonymous is speaking out once again. In this book, the original author pulls back the curtain even further, offering a first-of-its-kind look at the president and his record -- a must-read before Election Day. It will surprise and challenge both Democrats and Republicans, motivate them to consider how we judge our nation's leaders, and illuminate the consequences of re-electing a commander in chief unfit for the role.This book is a sobering assessment of the man in the Oval Office and a warning about something even more important -- who we are as a people.By Karen Pheasant-Neganigwane. 2020

[...] Les artistes de toutes les époques ont représenté des femmes en train de lire. Pourtant, il aura fallu des…
siècles avant qu'il soit accordé aux femmes de lire à leur guise. Ce qui leur incombait d'abord, c'était de broder, de prier, de s'occuper des enfants et de cuisiner. Dès l'instant où elles envisagent la lecture comme une possibilité de troquer l'étroitesse du monde domestique contre l'espace illimité de la pensée, de l'imagination, mais aussi du savoir, les femmes deviennent dangereuses. En lisant, elles s'approprient des connaissances et des expériences auxquelles la société ne les avait pas prédestinées. C'est ce chapitre captivant de l'histoire de la lecture féminine que Laure Adler et Stefan Bollmann explorent, avec un soin particulier du détail. Le fil de l'analyse conduit du Moyen Âge au temps présent, en s'attachant plus spécialement à certaines oeuvres de Rembrandt, Vermeer, mais aussi Manet, Matisse ou Hopper, jusqu'à la fameuse photographie d'Eve Arnold montrant Marilyn Monroe en train de lire Ulysse de James Joyce.
