        • Résumé :
        The Gambler is a novel written by the Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky. It was first published in 1867 and is one of Dostoevsky's shorter works compared to some of his more famous novels like Crime and Punishment and The Brothers Karamazov. The Gambler is a semi-autobiographical work that explores themes of addiction, obsession, and the destructive nature of gambling. The story is set in a fictional German town and revolves around the character Alexei Ivanovich, a tutor and the narrator of the novel. Alexei becomes embroiled in a turbulent and emotionally charged relationship with Polina, a young woman he tutors. Their complicated relationship is further complicated by the presence of The General, an older, wealthy Russian who also pursues Polina. The novel delves into the psychology of addiction, particularly gambling addiction, and its impact on individuals and relationships. Dostoevsky, who himself struggled with gambling, draws on personal experiences to depict the protagonist's descent into the world of casinos and the emotional turmoil that ensues. The novel offers a gripping and psychologically intense exploration of human frailty and the destructive power of compulsive behaviour.

        Sommaire:
        Anglo-French journalist and author William Tufnell Le Queux was born on July 2, 1864, and died on October 13, 1927. He was also a diplomat (honorary consul for San Marino), a traveler (in Europe, the Balkans, and North Africa), a fan of flying (he presided over the first British air meeting at Doncaster in 1909), and a wireless pioneer who played music on his own station long before radio was widely available. However, he often exaggerated his own skills and accomplishments. The Great War in England in 1897 (1894), a fantasy about an invasion by France and Russia, and The Invasion of 1910 (1906), a fantasy about an invasion by Germany, are his best-known works. Le Queux was born in the city. The man who raised him was English, and his father was French. He went to school in Europe and learned art in Paris from Ignazio (or Ignace) Spiridon. As a young man, he walked across Europe and then made a living by writing for French newspapers. He moved back to London in the late 1880s and managed the magazines Gossip and Piccadilly. In 1891, he became a parliamentary reporter for The Globe. He stopped working as a reporter in 1893 to focus on writing and traveling....
