Every week, Télérama highlights its favorite new books from the paperback section. This month's selection includes works by Yôko Ogawa, Tristan Saule, Richard Yates, Mathias Énard, and others. The article mentions that by September, the pace of the publishing season is well underway, allowing books to offer a different kind of rhythm and reflection. In the paperback section, a rich diversity of voices and narratives reminds readers of the many aspects of life that literature can capture—memory, history, creativity, collective struggles, and also the more personal and intense experiences of thought and language. One of the featured books, L’Hospitalité au démon by Constantin Alexandrakis, delves into the darker aspects of personal experience, attempting to explore the origins of guilt among survivors of abuse. Another highlighted title, Alice au pays des idées : comment vivre by Roger-Pol Droit, encourages readers to change their perspective and rediscover philosophical themes that resonate with the article’s discussion. The article is available only to subscribers of Télérama.
