We Still Have Words
'A powerful, inspiring book' Observer Georges Salines lost his daughter Lola in the attack on the Bataclan Theatre in Paris on 13th November 2015. Azdyne Amimour lost his son. Both were aged 28. Lola was one of the 90 victims, Amimour's son one of the attackers. From his meeting with Azdyne Amimour, an unprecedented dialogue emerged. Georges Salines carries the memory of his daughter and many other victims, while Azdyne Amimour seeks to understand how his son was able to commit acts which he condemns without appeal. Driven by mutual curiosity, the two tell their stories and unfold the story of 'their' 13th November. In the course of this conversation, a deep respect was born between these two fathers whom everything should nevertheless have opposed. Their testimony feeds a peaceful reflection on radicalization, education and mourning. Because if there are words left, there is also hope.
Far from Home
British mother Rosie Ayliffe thought her 21-year-old daughter, Mia, would be safe travelling around Australia on a gap year. But Mia wanted to extend her visa and in order to do that needed to find 88 days of work on a farm – a requirement that would lead to catastrophic events. Four short days after Mia moved to a hostel in Queensland to take a job on a sugarcane farm, she was brutally killed. Faced with every parent’s worst nightmare, Rosie travelled to Australia to retrieve Mia’s body. From the moment she landed, however, she started to hear stories about the terrible treatment of young workers like Mia – stories of exploitation, sexual harassment, rape. Mia was Rosie’s only chi...
You Will Not Have My Hate
'A beacon of hope in a dark world' Cathy Rentzenbrink, The Pool One night in November 2015, when Antoine Leiris was at home looking after his baby son, his wife Hélène was killed, along with 88 other people, at the Bataclan Theatre in Paris. Three days later, Antoine wrote an open letter to his wife’s killers on Facebook. He refused to be cowed or to let his baby son’s life be defined by their acts. ‘For as long as he lives, this little boy will insult you with his happiness and freedom,’ he wrote. Instantly, that short post caught fire and was shared thousands of times around the world. An extraordinary and heartbreaking memoir, You Will Not Have My Hate is a universal message of hope and resilience in our troubled times.
They
A RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK and a powerful and deeply personal exploration of a divided country - and a hopeful vision for change. 'This is not another book about the relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims. It is THE book. . . . Absolutely not to be missed.' - Matthew d'Ancona Sarfraz Manzoor grew up in a working-class Pakistani Muslim family in Luton - where he was raised to believe that they were different, they had an alien culture and they would never accept him. They were white people. In today's deeply divided Britain we are often told they are different, they have a different culture and values and they will never accept this country. This time they are Muslims. Weaving together ...

Les nouvelles menaces mondiales
La pandémie de Covid-19 ébranle le myhte de l'Occident intouchable et suscite de nombreuses questions quant aux défis que nous réserve l'avenir.... Alors qu’elle se croyait invincible, l’Europe tremble aujourd’hui face à la pandémie de Covid-19. Le mythe de l’Occident intouchable, déjà émoussé par de précédentes épidémies, continue de s’effriter. Au même moment, pourtant, les idéologies complotistes et les minimisations des gouvernements font rage, nous entraînant toujours plus vers un déni de la réalité... Que pouvons-nous donc attendre de l’avenir ? Quels espoirs et quels défis nous font face ? Est-il encore pertinent de se croire à l’abri de menaces qui...
Fata Morgana Web 2023
Che cosa è accaduto da un punto di vista culturale e sociale in questo 2023? Che cosa abbiamo letto? Che cosa abbiamo visto? Quali sono i temi, le opere e le questioni che il nostro presente ci ha posto? E quali i “nomi propri” di cui è ricorso l’anniversario che rimangano ancora bussole importanti per leggere l’oggi? A tali domande vuole rispondere quest’opera, suddivisa in due volumi (Le visioni e I discorsi), che raccoglie quanto di più significativo la rivista “Fata Morgana Web” ha pubblicato quest’anno, integrandolo con due ampi testi d’apertura, firmati da Roberto De Gaetano e Felice Cimatti, sulle parole chiave (maschera e acqua) che hanno segnato il presente. Que...
Il nous reste les mots - Après le Bataclan, dialogue entre le père d'une victime et celui d'un terroriste
Une leçon de tolérance et de résilience. Parce que s'il reste les mots, il reste aussi l'espoir. Georges Salines a perdu sa fille Lola dans l'attentat du 13 novembre 2015 au Bataclan. Il porte la mémoire de sa fille et de nombreuses autres victimes, tandis qu'Azdyne Amimour, père de l'un des assaillants, cherche à comprendre comment son fils a pu commettre des actes qu'il condamne sans appel. De leur rencontre a émergé un dialogue inédit, une réflexion apaisée sur le deuil, la radicalisation et l'éducation.
D13
El periodisme convertit en literatura a través de la perspicaç mirada de Carrère. D13: divendres 13 de novembre de 2015. En tres punts diferents de París es produeixen atemptats gihadistes. El més greu és el de la sala Bataclan, on actuen els Eagles of Death Metal. Els atacs deixen més d’un centenar de morts i més de quatre-cents ferits. Anys després, entre el setembre de 2021 i el juny de 2022, se celebra el judici al Palau de Justícia de la capital francesa. Hi ha catorze acusats: el principal és l’únic supervivent d’entre els terroristes de l’Estat Islàmic que van participar en la massacre. Va sobreviure perquè no va detonar el seu cinturó d’explosius. Va fallar e...
Jeunes à crever - Attentats du 13-novembre : un procès, une génération
Une immersion totale dans le procès des attentats du 13-Novembre. Un récit captivant, émouvant et indispensable pour saisir les enjeux de ces dix mois historiques. Après les scènes d'horreur du Bataclan, des terrasses et du Stade de France, vint le temps de la justice. Au déferlement de violence répondirent les témoignages, les débats et les plaidoiries. Pendant dix mois. Guillaume Auda s'est rendu quasiment tous les jours aux audiences du Palais de justice. Lui qui avait couvert en reportage l'émergence de l'État islamique, lui qui fut parmi les tout premiers journalistes devant le Bataclan le soir du 13 novembre 2015, puis à Molenbeek lors de la traque des terroristes, s'est to...
