› Find signed collectible books: 'The Adventures of Tintin: The Blue Lotus'Book summary:Picking up where he left off in the Egyptian adventure Cigars of the Pharaoh, Tintin travels to China in The Blue Lotus, a tale which is generally considered Herge's first masterpiece. It's also Tintin's only foray into actual history, specifically the Sino-Japanese conflicts of the early 1930s. The political tensions combined with the chilling threats of drugs give the story an especially high and realistic sense of danger. Herge's interest in China was spurred by a friendship with a young Chinese student named Chang Chong-chen, a relationship that Tintin mirrors with a Chinese boy also named Chang Chong-chen. Herge paints a vivid picture of China and takes the opportunity to denounce ethnic prejudices (though ironically his artistic depiction of the Japanese businessman Mitsuhirato is quite grotesque). Years later, Tintin's relationship with Chang would become the basis of Tintin in Tibet. --David Horiuchi [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Asterix and the Goths'Book summary:The Adventures of Asterix (French: Asterix or Asterix le Gaulois) is a series of French comic books written by Rene Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo (Uderzo also took over the job of writing the series after the death of Goscinny in 1977). The series first appeared in French in the magazine Pilote on 29 October 1959. As of 2008, 33 comic books in the series have been released.
The series follows the exploits of a village of ancient Gauls as they resist Roman occupation. They do so by means of a magic potion, brewed by their druid, which gives the recipient superhuman strength. The protagonist, the titular character, Asterix, along with his friend Obelix have various adventures. In many cases, this leads them to travel to various countries around the world, though other books are set in and around their village. For much of the history of the series (Volumes 4 through 29), settings in Gaul and abroad alternated, with even-numbered volumes set abroad and odd-numbered volumes set in Gaul, mostly in the village.
The Asterix series is one of the most popular Franco-Belgian comics in the world, with the series being translated into over 100 languages, and it is popular in most European countries.
The success of the series has led to the adaptation of several books into 11 films; eight animated, and three with live actors. There have also been a number of games based on the characters, and a theme park near Paris, Parc Asterix, is themed around the series. To date, 325 million copies of 33 Asterix books have been sold around the world making co-creators Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo France's bestselling authors abroad.

Set in a painstakingly researched world closely mirroring our own, Herge's Tintin series continues to be a favorite of readers and critics alike 80 years later. The hero of the series is Tintin, a young Belgian reporter. He is aided in his adventures from the beginning by his faithful fox terrier dog Snowy (Milou in French). Later, popular additions to the cast included the brash, cynical and grumpy Captain Haddock, the bright but hearing-impaired Professor Calculus (Professeur Tournesol) and other colorful supporting characters such as the incompetent detectives Thomson and Thompson (Dupond et Dupont). Herge himself features in several of the comics as a background character; as do his assistants in some instances. The success of the series saw the serialized strips collected into a series of albums (24 in all), spun into a successful magazine and adapted for film and theatre. The series is one of the most popular European comics of the 20th century, with translations published in over 50 languages and more than 200 million copies of the books sold to date. The comic strip series has long been admired for its clean, expressive drawings in Herge's signature ligne claire style.

› Find signed collectible books: 'King Leopold's Ghost: A Story of Greed, Terror, and Heroism in Colonial Africa'Book summary:King Leopold of Belgium, writes historian Adam Hochschild in this grim history, did not much care for his native land or his subjects, all of which he dismissed as "small country, small people." Even so, he searched the globe to find a colony for Belgium, frantic that the scramble of other European powers for overseas dominions in Africa and Asia would leave nothing for himself or his people. When he eventually found a suitable location in what would become the Belgian Congo, later known as Zaire and now simply as Congo, Leopold set about establishing a rule of terror that would culminate in the deaths of 4 to 8 million indigenous people, "a death toll," Hochschild writes, "of Holocaust dimensions." Those who survived went to work mining ore or harvesting rubber, yielding a fortune for the Belgian king, who salted away billions of dollars in hidden bank accounts throughout the world. Hochschild's fine book of historical inquiry, which draws heavily on eyewitness accounts of the colonialists' savagery, brings this little-studied episode in European and African history into new light. --Gregory McNamee [via]

Find This BookBook summary:L'ile noire (The Black Island) is an exciting and very funny tale of intrigue in which a gang of international forgers leads Tintin to the Scottish town of Kiltoch, where a dreaded beast is rumored to live. Along the way, Tintin is framed and has to dodge the pursuit of his old detective friends Thompson and Thomson. He also meets Dr. Müller, who would return in Tintin au pays de l'or noir. The Black Island is one of the earlier Tintin adventures, first appearing in Le Petit Vingtieme in 1937 and 1938, but it was revised and redrawn in 1966, which is why it has the more mature look of Herge's later work. --David Horiuchi [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'L'oreille Cassee'Book summary:Le 10 janvier 1929, un jeune reporter fait son apparition dans Le Petit Vingtième, le supplément pour enfants du quotidien belge Le XXe siècle. Son nom ? Tintin. Accompagné de Milou, un jeune chien blanc, il part pour la "Russie soviétique". Son créateur, un certain Georges Remi, signe Hergé, pseudonyme inspiré par ses initiales. Après ce premier voyage en Russie, qui donne naissance à l'album Tintin chez les Soviets, le jeune reporter s'envole pour l'Afrique (Tintin au Congo), puis pour l'Amérique. Mais c'est Le Lotus bleu, publié dans Le Petit Vingtième dès août 1934, qui marque un tournant important dans l'Suvre d'Hergé. Celui-ci, après avoir rencontré Tchang Tchong-Jen, jeune étudiant chinois qui lui a ouvert les yeux sur l'Asie, va désormais se soucier de rigueur documentaire. Il va aussi s'efforcer de faire passer dans ses histoires un message d'humanisme et de tolérance. Le succès de son reporter à la houppe ne va cesser de grandir. Hergé lui fait parcourir le monde. Il teinte ses aventures d'onirisme (L'Étoile mystérieuse), flirte avec le surnaturel (Les Sept Boules de cristal), l'expédie même sur la lune.
Il donne à Tintin des compagnons d'aventure qui vont prendre une place essentielle : les Dupont/d (Les Cigares du pharaon), le capitaine Haddock (Le Crabe aux pinces d'or), le professeur Tournesol (Le Secret de la Licorne) ou Bianca Castafiore (Le Sceptre d'Ottokar). Hergé n'hésite pas à jouer avec ses personnages : Les Bijoux de la Castafiore montrent un Tintin dépassé par les événements, loin de son image traditionnelle. Jusqu'à l'Suvre ultime, laissée inachevée par la mort d'Hergé en mars 1983 : Tintin et l'alph-art, dont la dernière case montre le héros en bien fâcheuse posture...
Tintin a su séduire les jeunes comme les adultes. Grâce à la lisibilité de la narration et du dessin, la justesse des dialogues, le sens du rebondissement et de l'intrigue... Mais aussi le souffle de l'aventure, de l'amitié et de la générosité. Et, en plus, ce quelque chose d'indéfinissable qu'Hergé lui-même ne savait expliquer... Une bande dessinée universelle. --Gilbert Jacques [via]

He invented an inimitable pictorial language that he used to question our usual comprehension of reality and art.

› Find signed collectible books: 'Tintin En Amerique'Book summary:Aprés avoir eu la bonne idée de ressortir en 1981 TINTIN AU PAYS DES SOVIETS en fac-similé afin de contrer les éditions pirates, Casterman en a eu une autre en continuant la sortie de fac-similé des albums Noir et blanc. Pour tintin en Amérique nous avons 2 éditions. Voici la première reprenant l'édition du "Petit Vingtième", ne comportant pas de hors-texte en couleur. Sortie en 1983, elle n'intéressera pas les collectionneurs fortunés qui préférent les originaux. Mais pour les autres qui ne peuvent se le permettre, quelle satisfaction de tenir entre les mains un album tel que celui de 1932, même format, même papier, mais à l'état neuf et pour un prix modique. Alors, ne boudons pas notre plaisir. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Tintin in America'Book summary:Written in 1931, Tintin in America was chronologically the third Tintin adventure but is generally considered the first in the "official" canon. The stereotypes probably fit how a European would have looked at the New World, from Al Capone's gangsters in Chicago to a Native American tribe in the unfortunately named Redskin City, as Tintin and Snowy escape one peril after another in pursuit of villain Bobby Smiles. It's one of Herge's least complex--and least entertaining--tales, still worth a read but not a good introduction to the series as a whole. --David Horiuchi [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Tintin: Le Temple Du Soleil'Book summary:Le 10 janvier 1929, un jeune reporter fait son apparition dans Le Petit Vingtième, le supplément pour enfants du quotidien belge Le XXe siècle. Son nom ? Tintin. Accompagné de Milou, un jeune chien blanc, il part pour la "Russie soviétique". Son créateur, un certain Georges Remi, signe Hergé, pseudonyme inspiré par ses initiales. Après ce premier voyage en Russie, qui donne naissance à l'album Tintin chez les Soviets, le jeune reporter s'envole pour l'Afrique (Tintin au Congo), puis pour l'Amérique. Mais c'est Le Lotus bleu, publié dans Le Petit Vingtième dès août 1934, qui marque un tournant important dans l'Suvre d'Hergé. Celui-ci, après avoir rencontré Tchang Tchong-Jen, jeune étudiant chinois qui lui a ouvert les yeux sur l'Asie, va désormais se soucier de rigueur documentaire. Il va aussi s'efforcer de faire passer dans ses histoires un message d'humanisme et de tolérance. Le succès de son reporter à la houppe ne va cesser de grandir. Hergé lui fait parcourir le monde. Il teinte ses aventures d'onirisme (L'Étoile mystérieuse), flirte avec le surnaturel (Les Sept Boules de cristal), l'expédie même sur la lune.
Il donne à Tintin des compagnons d'aventure qui vont prendre une place essentielle : les Dupont/d (Les Cigares du pharaon), le capitaine Haddock (Le Crabe aux pinces d'or), le professeur Tournesol (Le Secret de la Licorne) ou Bianca Castafiore (Le Sceptre d'Ottokar). Hergé n'hésite pas à jouer avec ses personnages : Les Bijoux de la Castafiore montrent un Tintin dépassé par les événements, loin de son image traditionnelle. Jusqu'à l'Suvre ultime, laissée inachevée par la mort d'Hergé en mars 1983 : Tintin et l'alph-art, dont la dernière case montre le héros en bien fâcheuse posture...
Tintin a su séduire les jeunes comme les adultes. Grâce à la lisibilité de la narration et du dessin, la justesse des dialogues, le sens du rebondissement et de l'intrigue... Mais aussi le souffle de l'aventure, de l'amitié et de la générosité. Et, en plus, ce quelque chose d'indéfinissable qu'Hergé lui-même ne savait expliquer... Une bande dessinée universelle. --Gilbert Jacques [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Antechrista'Book summary:Les amis ne sont pas forcément bien intentionnés. Dans cet esprit déroutant, Amélie Nothomb retrace ici la relation perverse entre deux étudiantes. L'une, Blanche, est crédule, mal dans sa peau, celle qu'on ne remarque nulle part, qu'on embrasse peut-être parce qu'elle n'est pas "plus moche qu'une autre". L'autre, Christa, est impétueuse, tyrannique, belle et charmeuse, envoûtante, sollicitée. Quand Christa pose son regard sur Blanche, celle-ci se plonge d'emblée dans les délices d'une amitié qu'elle n'a jamais eue, dans la complicité, la confiance partagée, de rires en confessions. Elle ne sait pas, et ne comprend pas qu'elle a déjà glissé du côté des rapports masochistes imposés par une jeune fille diabolique, se livrant aux mensonges et aux abus... qui feraient d'elle moins une Christa charitable et affable qu'une Antéchrista effrayante.
Une fois de plus, Amélie Nothomb parvient à dessiner des personnages denses, dotés d'une psychologie complexe. Surtout, elle réussit à lier le lecteur à son récit, même en brossant le portrait d'une créature agaçante et irritante. --Céline Darner [via]-

› Find signed collectible books: 'Asterix Et Les Goths'Book summary:Nous sommes en 1959, en plein mois d'août. Dans une cité HLM de Bobigny, aux portes de Paris, deux auteurs de bande dessinée s'épongent le front. Pas seulement à cause de la chaleur estivale : les deux compères suent sang et eau pour trouver une idée de personnage. Il leur faut être prêts pour le premier numéro de Pilote, un nouveau magazine pour les jeunes dont la parution doit intervenir trois mois plus tard. Le scénariste s'appelle René Goscinny. Son copain dessinateur, c'est Albert Uderzo. Ils avaient bien pensé à adapter Le Roman de Renart, mais un autre y a songé avant eux. Alors, ils cherchent. Mais ne trouvent rien& Jusqu'à ce que Goscinny ait l'idée d'un petit Gaulois teigneux et moustachu. Banco : Astérix est né. Et, avec lui, un formidable succès d'édition doublé d'un phénomène de société.
Il fait sa première apparition le 29 octobre 1959 dans les pages de Pilote. Puis l'album Astérix le Gaulois sort en librairie en 1961. Tirage modeste : 6 000 exemplaires. Mais la courbe des ventes ne va cesser de grimper. En 1966, 600 000 exemplaires d'Astérix chez les Bretons s'envolent en quinze jours. Le petit Gaulois est en couverture de l'hebdomadaire L'Express. Du jamais vu. L'année précédente, il a même donné son nom au premier satellite français. Les intellectuels mêlent leur grain de sel, certains trouvant à Astérix une ressemblance avec le Général de Gaulle& Goscinny et Uderzo n'en ont cure. Eux continuent à s'amuser, à faire vivre une galerie de personnages pittoresques, à réécrire l'Histoire et à régaler leurs lecteurs de gags subtils et de trouvailles visuelles. La disparition de Goscinny, en 1977, ne mettra pas fin à l'aventure. Uderzo continue seul et fonde les Éditions Albert-René. Désormais, c'est lui qui écrira les scénarios, sans toutefois faire preuve du même talent que son prédécesseur. Au total, les aventures d'Astérix et de son copain Obélix se sont vendues à plus de 280 millions d'exemplaires. Une réussite exceptionnelle dans la bande dessinée. --Gilbert Jacques [via]More editions of Asterix Et Les Goths:

"Tout ce qu'on peut dire de l'Inde est vrai, on y voit les choses plus clairement parce que c'est le chaos", affirme Arundhati Roy à propos de ce premier livre qui lui a valu le Booker Prize en 1997. La jeune romancière indienne s'est inspirée du village d'Ayemenem, dans l'État de Kerala en Inde du sud, où elle a grandi. Un monde de bruit et de fureur vu à travers le regard de Rahel et de son frère Estha, deux jumeaux silencieux, perdus dans le monde des adultes et contraints par eux à la pire des trahisons. Dans l'odeur douceâtre de l'usine de confitures de la grand-mère, la lutte des classes rejoint la lutte des castes et autour de la redoutable grand-tante Baby Kochamma s'agitent des personnages tragiques ou pittoresques comme l'oncle Charko ou Ammu, la mère des jumeaux, abandonnée par son mari et amoureuse en secret d'un Intouchable. La seule loi qui régisse ce chaos est celle qui précise "qui devait être aimé et jusqu'à quel point", une loi qu'il coûte toujours cher d'enfreindre, en Inde ou ailleurs. -Gérard Meudal [via]
