The trends for the 2011-2012 winter
season play on the charm of colors,
the subtlety of textures and the originality
of prints. So as to not turn the page
too abruptly on this year’s summer
fashion, color block doesn’t completely
disappear, but it is seriously rivaled
by the retro, rock chic and
neo-bourgeois trends.
As you turn the pages, you’ll discover
hats which give you character, winter
miniskirts, bursts of bright red color,
cream-colored coats and always classy
fur. Fashion is inspiration,
and CITYLIFE takes you on a journey
to the land of trends where you’ll discover
this winter’s winning looks
from head to toe.
Live fashion!

The TV series Mad Men has turned
retro chic into one of this winter’s
biggest trends. To add a note of
retro to your outfit, tie a printed
scarf around your neck, then pull
on a little dress and a belted coat
and voilà, here we are back in
the 1960s.

Dare to wear hats
Are you more of a 1930s retro
woman? The cloche hat is your
best ally. First sighted at the
last Marc Jacobs fashion show,
the cloche hat is so off-beat
and so British: Queen Elizabeth
is, by the way, one of its most
well-known spokespeople.

Here’s a quick
once-over for
those of you
who haven’t yet
devoured this
year’s literary
must-reads.
Carrère, Auster,
Roth, Murakami,
Coelho...
The masters
of hardboiled
crime fiction,
introspection
and poetry have
struck again.
“It’s a dangerous,
ambiguous life: a true
adventure novel. It’s
also, I feel, a life that
tells a story. Not only
about him, Limonov,
and not only about
Russia, but about all of
our history since the end
of the World War II.”*
Emmanuel Carrère
Limonov: hero or scoundrel? After spending time as a bum in the US, a valet
in France and a supporter of the Serbs, Limonov then becomes leader of the
National Bolshevik party upon returning to Russia. Limonov vacillates his entire
life between violence and literature. The author doesn’t judge, he tells the story
with his own life in the spotlight at all times.

“She is moving forward now, and falling more and
more deeply into the profound abyss of her own
void, the place in herself which is everything that
she is not.”*
Paul Auster
A work of hardboiled crime fiction filled with sensitive and emotional
characters. Sunset Park is a complex family novel which looks into deeply
repressed traumas. Seven years after the Twin Towers fell, Paul Auster questions
and criticizes the American dream. The author pushes individuals to painfully
and radically reexamine their own story and their values.
Actes Sud, 320 pages

“He had lost his magic.”*
Philip Roth
Simon Axler is a classic theater actor playing Macbeth on stage at the Kennedy Center when
he falls down from an attack of terrible pain. Confabulation or real agony? Philip Roth has gone
back to his favorite themes: aging and sexual and creative impotence. He adds a new theme as
well, that of an imaginary woman devoted to desire.
Gallimard, 124 pages
“Don’t be fooled by appearances. There is
only one reality.”*

The story takes place in Tokyo in 1984, but is it really 1984? Aomame,
29 years old, takes a taxi to go to an important meeting. But in a hotel in a
Tokyo suburb, she kills in cold blood a man guilty of domestic violence. Tengo
is the same age; he is a discreet math teacher who likes to write. His editor
suggests he rewrite the “novel” of a teenage girl named Fukaeri. The manuscript,
Air Chrysalis, is exceptionally imaginative but very badly written. Tengo tries,
against his will, to turn it into a successful novel.
Belfond, 534 pages
“The Aleph has revealed to me a bit of
the woman who is standing before me.”*
Paulo Coelho
After The Winner Stands Alone, the famous writer Paulo Coelho comes back with a new
novel inspired by his travels in Asia. Paulo is going through an existentialist and spiritual
crisis which makes him quit everything and leave his village in the West Pyrenees to travel
across Asia on board the Trans-Siberian. In Russia, he meets Hilal, a young, 21-year-old
Turk. Then a window opens into their souls and through the doors of Aleph…
Flammarion, 312 pages
