Founded in 1906 by J.M. Dent, the Everyman Library has always tried to make the best books ever written available to the greatest number of people at the lowest possible price. Unique editorial features that help Everyman Paperback Classics stand out from the crowd include: a leading scholar or literary critic's introduction to the text, a biography of the author, a chronology of her or his life and times, a historical selection of criticism, and a concise plot summary. All books published since 1993 have also been completely restyled: all type has been reset, to offer a clarity and ease of reading unique among editions of the classics; a vibrant, full-color cover design now complements these great texts with beautiful contemporary works of art. But the best feature must be Everyman's uniquely low price. Each Everyman title offers these extensive materials at a price that competes with the most inexpensive editions on the market-but Everyman Paperbacks have durable binding, quality paper, and the highest editorial and scholarly standards.
Joseph Rudyard Kipling was an English short-story writer, poet, and novelist. He is chiefly remembered for his tales and poems of British soldiers in India and his tales for children.

Irritation, indifferent kisses, conflicts, romances that are failures from the start: all in all, the couple is unveiled, without the prop of fiction.This is a depiction of the couple ripped apart and in pain, when you cannot stand each other anymore; when you have stopped dreaming together; when you are about to break-up. You start explaining the situation to the children. Or you think you can catch up the lost time and you shut your mouth to avoid creating irreversible damages.The end of love is also the disappearance of the loved one, the person you talk to in the dark and without whom you loose your sense of place.These are familiar stories, where we find again the small bargains, the disillusions, as well as the violence that one experiences in such situations. These are tales of ordinary lives, from women and men as they launch into the old adventure of love. Sparse and intense, in the vein of Brigitte Giraud's celebrated style, this radical and deeply affecting book testifies to the author's unique ability to convey the fragility of beings, and offers a lucid and critical account of life as a couple.Brigitte Giraud was born in Algeria in 1960. She has worked as a journalist as well as a book keeper. She is programming director of the Festival of Bron, an important literary event taking place in the region of Lyon where she now resides. She has written four novels, La Chambre des parents (Fayard, 1997), Nico (Stock, 1999), Mar e noire (Stock, 2004), J'apprends (Stock, 2005), and a novella, pr sent (Stock, 2001).
