A deeply private man, shut off even to those who worked closely with him, Abraham Lincoln often captured “his best thoughts", as he called them, in short notes to himself. He would work out his personal stances on the biggest issues of the day, never expecting anyone to see these pieces of writing, which he’d then keep close at hand, in desk drawers and even in his top hat. The profound importance of these notes has been overlooked, because the originals are scattered across several different archives and have never before been brought together and examined as a coherent whole.

Diaries hold all manner of things: they allow us a moment to be completely personal, to self-aggrandise, to focus on self-reflection without concern of what someone on the outside might think. Discovered or published diaries of the past have also provided glimpses into history, eras and minds gone by, especially the inner lives otherwise unknown.

A masterful abridgement of the 2017 Across Two Novembers, this book preserves the erudition, poignancy, and occasional quirkiness of the original. It cuts out the lengthy bibliography and some of the daily journal entries, but one is never left wondering what might be missing when a day is skipped. Mentions and fine reviews of dozens of books share the stage with the more personal details.

He will travel home along the river that bound him and that bound his father to the constant rain and the residue of his past, to the last days of his father’s life long suicide, what seemed to kill them both. James is a product of his past, of his parents’ push and pull.

Nguyen Nhat Anh's journal does not just discuss Quang noodles. He said everything in the sky under the pool. From food to calligraphy, from theater to movie, from home to office, from supermarket to street, from Saigon to the West...He discusses everything: From big and small, from fake goods to Hollywood uprising, from Cophaco fans to Ba Tieu fans...He also likes everything: From reading advertisements to listening to reforms on the Tien River, from watching football to watching flowers dig in paintings, then "chat"...

Funny, poignant and reflective, The Weight of a Cherry Blossom is a fable of rootlessness and belonging in the modern world. It is equal parts a story of urban loneliness and self-discovery and of the healing powers of kinship and love. Revisiting the awkwardness of adolescence and the chaos of growing up, it looks the foibles of adulthood irreverently in the eye.

Union General William Tecumseh Sherman came right through her yard on their march to the sea in 1864, just as they had other plantations. But the widow mistress of Georgia's Burge Plantation was no typical southern belle. She was a Maine-born transplant with 100 slaves. Here, in Dolly Sumner Lunt's own words, is a description of those days as she watched everything she had and believed in being threatened by an army she described as invaders.

"L'intranquillité" de Fernando Pessoa met en scène les différents hétéronymes que l'auteur avait inventés pour se permettre des styles d'écriture divers, voire opposés. Ces personnages prennent une certaine consistance dans ce journal intime qui mêle réalité vécue et réalité littéraire. Écrit à partir de 1913 et jusqu'à la mort de Pessoa en 1935, ce texte est à la fois préoccupé, libre et poétique.
