The long term future of the Gulf Stream is now under threat; the Arctic ice is melting & the fear among oceanographers is that the cold water will not sink in the Norwegian Sea, thus switching off this transatlantic heat conveyer. Northern Europe would then freeze, & this apparent paradox
- that global warming could bring about a new european ice age
- seems to have caught the popular imagination. Orsenna explores the Gulf Stream, its past & its future, both in celebration & in lament of its possible demise.

Portraits is a collection of 255 images from the world-famous accidental master of portrait photography, Steve Mc Curry. These evocative images from all over the world each display Mc Curry’s characteristic vibrancy & exceptional colour. Steve Mc Curry never set out to take portraits. In 1985, he photographed an Afghan girl for the National Geographic. The intensity of the subject`s eyes & her compelling gaze made this one of the most widely & consistently celebrated portraits in the history of contemporary photography. This accompanies the other remarkable faces he has encountered whilst travelling throughout the world, collected together in an engaging & strangely moving series of unique street portraits: unposed, unstylized images of people that reveal the true universality of the depths of human emotion. Critically acclaimed & recognized internationally for his classic reportage, over the last twenty years he has worked on numerous assignments, travelling extensively throughout the Middle & Far East. Mc Curry has won first prize in the World Press Awards, & was named Magazine Photographer of the Year in 1984. He is most famous for his evocative colour photography, which has captured stories of human experience that, in the finest documentary tradition, transcend boundaries of language & culture. ...

A graceful story of love across an insuperable gulf & a powerful allegory for the conflict that has beset the Middle East for the last half century. To call your son Ossyane is like calling him Rebellion. For Ossyane`s father it is a gesture of protest by an excited Ottoman prince, for Ossyane himself it is a burdensome responsibility. At eighteen he leaves Beirut to study in Montpellier, far away from his father`s revolutionary aspirations for him. But it is 1938, & when war breaks out in Europe, Ossyane is drawn into the Resistance. His return to Beirut is a rebel hero`s welcome after all, & a joyful reunion with Clara, whom he first met in France. But if one war has brought the Jewish-Muslim couple together, another, much closer to home, is destined to separate Ossyane from the people & the world that he loves. ...
