Life can turn on a dime—or stumble into the extraordinary, as it does for Jake Epping, a high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine. While grading essays by his GED students, Jake reads a gruesome, enthralling piece penned by janitor Harry Dunning: fifty years ago, Harry somehow survived his father’s sledgehammer slaughter of his entire family. Jake is blown away...but an even more bizarre secret comes to light when Jake’s friend Al, owner of the local diner, enlists Jake to take over the mission that has become his obsession—to prevent the Kennedy assassination. How? By stepping through a portal in the diner’s storeroom, and into the era of Ike and Elvis, of big American cars, sock hops, and cigarette smoke... Finding himself in warmhearted Jodie, Texas, Jake begins a new life. But all turns in the road lead to a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald. The course of history is about to be rewritten...and become heart-stoppingly suspenseful. (Merci Louise d'être allé à la bibliothèque pour moi)...849 pages.

Première journée de ski

| Martin Giroux What an amazing time we all had. It's fun to see kids actually excited about jumping in a car for 1.25 hours just to go skiing. Really cool! |

Seth Hubbard is a wealthy man dying of lung cancer. He trusts no one. Before he hangs himself from a sycamore tree, Hubbard leaves a new, handwritten, will. It is an act that drags his adult children, his black maid, and Jake into a conflict as riveting and dramatic as the murder trial that made Brigance one of Ford County's most notorious citizens, just three years earlier.
The second will raises far more questions than it answers. Why would Hubbard leave nearly all of his fortune to his maid? Had chemotherapy and painkillers affected his ability to think clearly? And what does it all have to do with a piece of land once known as Sycamore Row?

Vitrine de Noel chez Ogilvy
Les automates m'ont toujours fascinée!
Les vitrines mécaniques de Noël font partie de la tradition de Ogilvy et de Montréal depuis 1947 quand la première de ces spectaculaires devantures, fabriquées par Steiff Co., fut importée d’Allemagne. Plus d’une centaine de pièces mobiles mettent en vedette une myriade d’animaux de peluche faits à la main et des paysages enchanteurs remplissent les vitrines des rues Sainte-Catherine et de la Montagne.
Ces paysages illustrent les aspects traditionnels de Noël. « Le Moulin dans la forêt » et « Le Village Enchanté ». Chaque année, ils attirent les Montréalais et les visiteurs qui désirent échapper à la frénésie de la saison des Fêtes et venir tout simplement admirer ces magnifiques maquettes.-
