We drive at high speed along back roads, through woods, vineyards, and oat fields. The bike smells like gasoline and makes a lot of noise, and sometimes I'm frightened when the wheels slip on the gravel on the dirt road, but the only thing that matters is that I'm holding on to him, that I'm holding on to him outside. Just outside a hotel in Bordeaux, Philippe chances upon a young man who bears a striking resemblance to his first love. What follows is a look back at the relationship he's never forgotten, a hidden affair with a gorgeous boy named Thomas during their last year of high school. Without ever acknowledging they know each other in the halls, they steal time to meet in secret, carrying on a passionate, world-altering affair. Dazzlingly rendered in English by Ringwald in her first-ever translation, Besson's powerfully moving coming-of-age story captures the eroticism and tenderness of first love--and the heartbreaking passage of time.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. What is architecture when computers redefine it? Two books explore the nature and potential of architecture in the age of artificial intelligence. Inspired by architect Fritz Haller (1924-2012), a virtual persona asks him about the architecture of the future. The first book uses artificial intelligence to network the Internet of Things into a new architecture. The second presents six works by Fritz Haller in the multidisciplinary light of the 2020s and shows them like icons that already contain what was only thought of later. The two volumes are neither historical nor analytical - they are visionary and projective and, in some respects, represent an experiment in themselves. They show an architecture that does rethink and does not evaluate. An experiment on the 100th birthday of Fritz Haller, the pioneer of integral planning What would Fritz Haller say today about the architecture of the future? Volume 24 of the Applied Virtualiy Book Series (only available together).…

Doomed youth, simmering desire and 100-proof nostalgia is what Besson does--and he does it very well." --The Times (UK) From the author of the international bestseller Lie with Me, a "prismatic.moving" (Kirkus Reviews, STARRED review) novel set on an island off the coast of France, following a group of teenagers and the sudden disappearance of one of their number, leaving the rest with an enduring mystery Tell me, do you know why the most beautiful love stories must always end badly? In the summer of 1985, on a scruffy resort island off the coast of France, six teenagers-- five boys and one girl--band together for a final golden season before adulthood. Their days are drenched in sun, and their nights simmer with secrets, jealousy, and longing. Philippe is drawn to Nicolas, the quiet new boy who sees him in a way that no one else does. As their bond deepens, part of Nicolas remains unreachable--and then a sudden tragedy brings everything to a brutal end. The Summer Boy is a lush and unforgettable autobiographical tale, capturing the ineffable summers of youth in amber. Celebrated novelist Philippe Besson has shaped his memories into "a haunting and wistful work" (Publishers Weekly, STARRED review) about how one night--and one fierce connection--can echo across a lifetime. …
