The Despair of Monkeys and Other Trifles
“I was for a very long time passionately in love with her, as I’m sure she’s guessed. Every male in the world, and a number of females also were, and we all still are.” —David Bowie “Françoise was the ultimate pin-up of most hip bedroom walls, and I know for a fact that Brian Jones and Mick Jagger, John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and many other pop stars were desperately interested in having Françoise Hardy become their girlfriend in some way.” —Malcolm McLaren Françoise Hardy is best known in Europe for originating the famed “Yé-Yé” sound in pop music which began a cultural scene in the early 1960s.

The Despair of Monkeys and Other Trifles
Francoise Hardy is best known in Europe for originating the famed 'Ye-Ye' sound in pop music which began a cultural scene in the early 1960s. Her teenage success grew as she became a much-photographed fashion model and actress. Adored for her shy beauty and emotional songwriting, she sang hit songs in French, Italian, and German. In The Despair of Monkeys and Other Trifles, she bares her soul and tells the truth of her relationships, fears, and triumphs as well as the hard-won wisdom carved from a life well-lived.

Françoise Hardy
"L'amour fou a inspiré toutes mes chansons." Françoise Hardy a traversé les générations avec élégance. En 1962, à 18 ans, elle devient star en quelques mois, chantant de sa voix douce la difficulté d'aimer, tandis que les icônes du rock (Mick Jagger, David Bowie, Bob Dylan) succombent tour à tour à son charme. Bientôt, ses chansons sont reprises dans le monde entier. A cette époque, le photographe Jean-Marie Périer occupe toutes ses pensées. Amour sublimé, unique, exclusif. Quelques années plus tard, l'égérie longiligne des sixties formera un couple mythique avec Jacques Dutronc. Et connaîtra d'autres idylles... tumultueuses. De la toute jeune fille qui composait des mélodies dans sa chambre du quartier de la Trinité à la femme mûre adressant des "messages personnels" poignants dans ses récits autobiographiques, Frédéric Quinonero retrace le parcours d'une personnalité qui, par l'écriture et le chant, a tenté d'élucider le mystère de la relation entre un homme et une femme. Avec une grâce exigeante, elle a construit une oeuvre cohérente, mêlant l'intime à l'universel. Françoise Hardy, une icône qui s'ignore ?

Mothers and Others
Somewhere in Africa, more than a million years ago, a line of apes began to rear their young differently than their Great Ape ancestors. From this new form of care came new ways of engaging and understanding each other. How such singular human capacities evolved, and how they have kept us alive for thousands of generations, is the mystery revealed in this bold and wide-ranging new vision of human emotional evolution. Mothers and Others finds the key in the primatologically unique length of human childhood. If the young were to survive in a world of scarce food, they needed to be cared for, not only by their mothers but also by siblings, aunts, fathers, friends—and, with any luck, grandmoth...
