La Vie passionnée de Thérèse d’Avila
Les Aigles de Rome – Livre I
The strategic general Drusus is entrusted with the mission of bringing the indomitable barbarians of Germania under the Roman Empire’s control. Once the battle is won, Prince Sigmar offers his son, Arminius, as a hostage to the Romans. Caesar consigns the education of the young barbarian to one of his most trusted companions, Titus Valerius Falco. Titus has a son of the same age as Arminius, an unruly young man called Marcus, also in need of an education worthy of his name. Together, these two budding soldiers go through full training, and are time and again subjected to the steely discipline and harsh tests of their tutor, an ex-legionary. Through these trying experiences, the insolent young Roman and the hot-headed German gradually transform their reciprocal hatred into a strong friendship… especially as they begin to discover the irresistible charms of their various female contemporaries…

Les Frustrés – Intégrale complète
From 1973 to 1980 in the pages of the “Nouvel Obs,” Claire Bretécher each week published a portrait of “Les Frustrés” that earned her the recognition as “the best sociologist of the year” by Roland Barthes in 76. She created sketches of French snobs, intellectuals and left-wingers with her usual astuteness and gentle mockery. Nearly 30 years on, these hilarious sketches are the cheery testimony of all our little quirks that somehow forever remain the same…
Les Aigles de Rome – Livre II
Having gone through the same training, Marcus Valerius Falco and Arminius have discovered together of the intoxication of combat and the pleasures of the senses. What started as a mutual dislike has gradually turned into shared respect, and eventually friendship. In this second volume, Marcus launches himself into the amorous pursuit of the gorgeous Priscilla. Unfortunately, the lady in question is already promised to another, leading the love-crazed Marcus into rash decisions and sticky situations. Luckily, Arminius has got his back, but his tolerance of his best friend’s foolishness soon reaches its limits… Sexy, action-packed, with plenty of plotting and poison, against the backdrop of the Roman Empire’s relentless military conquests.
Les Combats d’Agrippine
Agrippina, a wonderful prototype of the rebellious teenager, spends her time squabbling with her exasperated parents, determinately ignoring her infuriating brother, discussing the latest couplings with her girlfriends, studiously avoiding ‘being normal’, and falling madly in love with a different boy every two minutes. Quite simply hilarious.
