Ici le maire Brownstein. Je sais que vous avez été profondément affecté par les images que vous avez vues depuis les massacres en Israël le 7 octobre.Côte Saint-Luc accueille des gens du monde entier. Et beaucoup d'entre eux sont venus au Canada pour échapper la violence. En discutant avec de nombreux résidents de plusieurs communautés au cours des derniers jours, j'ai pu constater à quel point nous sommes unis. Dans les jours et les semaines à venir, notre principale priorité sera sur les questions de sécurité. Davantage de patrouilles de la Sécurité publique. Davantage de patrouilles par la police de Montréal, bien que le groupe de travail spécial de la police estime le niveau de risque très faible.Et vous pouvez aussi nous aider. Si vous voyez quelque chose, dites-le. Cela signifie que vous devez appeler le 9-1-1 si vous voyez quelque chose de suspect. Nous sommes tous impliqués. Et nous nous en sortirons, ensemble.

Everyone Knows Your Mother Is a Witch by Rivka Galchen
The story begins in 1618, in the German duchy of Württemberg. Plague is spreading. The Thirty Years' War has begun, and fear and suspicion are in the air throughout the Holy Roman Empire. In the small town of Leonberg, Katharina Kepler is accused of being a witch.
Katharina is an illiterate widow, known by her neighbors for her herbal remedies and the success of her children, including her eldest, Johannes, who is the Imperial Mathematician and renowned author of the laws of planetary motion. It's enough to make anyone jealous, and Katharina has done herself no favors by being out and about and in everyone's business.
So when the deranged and insipid Ursula Reinbold (or as Katharina calls her, the Werewolf) accuses Katharina of offering her a bitter, witchy drink that has made her ill, Katharina is in trouble. Her scientist son must turn his attention from the music of the spheres to the job of defending his mother. Facing the threat of financial ruin, torture, and even execution, Katharina tells her side of the story to her friend and next-door neighbor Simon, a reclusive widower imperiled by his own secrets.
Drawing on real historical documents but infused with the intensity of imagination, sly humor, and intellectual fire for which Rivka Galchen is known, Everyone Knows Your Mother Is a Witch will both provoke and entertain. The story of how a community becomes implicated in collective aggression and hysterical fear is a tale for our time. Galchen's bold new novel touchingly illuminates a society and a family undone by superstition, the state, and the mortal convulsions of history.

365 Ami Sands Brodoff presenting her new book "The Sleep of Apples" by City of Côte Saint-Luc
An atmospheric and utterly compelling debut novel about a Jamaican immigrant living in postwar London, This Lovely City shows that new arrivals have always been the prime suspects ― but that even in the face of anger and fear, there is always hope.
London, 1950. With the war over and London still rebuilding, jazz musician Lawrie Matthews has answered England’s call for labour. Arriving from Jamaica aboard the Empire Windrush, he’s rented a tiny room in south London and fallen in love with the girl next door.
Playing in Soho’s jazz clubs by night and pacing the streets as a postman by day, Lawrie has poured his heart into his new home ― and it’s alive with possibility. Until one morning, while crossing a misty common, he makes a terrible discovery.
As the local community rallies, fingers of blame point at those who were recently welcomed with open arms. And before long, London’s newest arrivals become the prime suspects in a tragedy that threatens to tear the city apart. Immersive, poignant, and utterly compelling, Louise Hare’s debut examines the complexities of love and belonging, and teaches us that even in the face of anger and fear, there is always hope.
