Lucrezia e Antonia sono cugine, ma non potrebbero essere più diverse l’una dall’altra. La prima è bellissima, dedita a una cura morbosa del corpo e "maestra dell’immondo, eroina di una vita di scempiaggini". La seconda è bruttina, trascurata da tutti, "uno scarabocchio con l’incarnato olivigno" che a ventisette anni non ha ancora baciato nessuno. A irrompere nelle loro esistenze contrapposte, anche se legate dalla stessa necessità di riscatto, sarà Manfredi, un pianista di trentadue anni che si muove nella realtà come un fantasma, forse perché da bambino è stato un prodigio.

Vincenzo Consolo è stato una delle voci più originali e autorevoli della cultura italiana negli ultimi decenni. Le sue "narrazioni", che rifiutano la forma standard del romanzo e la lingua vuota del nostro tempo, sono lette, ammirate e studiate in Europa e nel mondo. Come i suoi maestri Vittorini e Sciascia, Consolo si è dedicato a un'instancabile attività militante, su quotidiani e periodici. Questo volume raccoglie cinquantadue brevi scritti, tra cui alcuni preziosi inediti, racconti - come li definiva l'autore - che coprono un arco di più di cinquant'anni.

Dicembre 2015. Costanza e Mario, due sconosciuti, sono bloccati all'aeroporto di Londra-Stansted a causa di una bufera di neve. Lei gioca a scacchi da sola, lui la spia con curiosità perché Costanza, oltre ad avere le clavicole più spettacolari che Mario abbia mai visto, durante la partita confabula con l'alfiere nero. Dallo stalking passano a giocare insieme e, quando tutti i voli vengono annullati per il maltempo, i due decidono di dividere prima un taxi e poi una camera d'albergo. Prende vita così una notte indimenticabile, quella che per entrambi diventerà la "Notte numero zero".

Story
Berta Isla ha sposato Tomás pensando di conoscerlo da sempre, che anzi fosse lui a non conoscere qualcosa di lei, a non sapere cioè della verginità perduta con un altro uomo. Eppure è proprio il buon Tomás, il prevedibile Tomás a nascondere il segreto piú grande e sconvolgente. Nessuno come Marías sa mostrare il lato oscuro e insieme quello luminoso dell'amore, nessuno meglio di lui sa che ogni cuore che batte è un mistero, persino per il cuore che gli sta più vicino.

...nessuno si salva da solo... Dona è un paesino sconosciuto dell’hinterland Milanese. È qui che Luca, giovane romano, andrà a vivere dopo aver ricevuto, da un nonno che non aveva mai conosciuto, un’eredità inaspettata. In questo piccolo centro abitato, composto da polvere ed anziani, Luca farà amicizie insolite e scoperte che gli lasceranno un segno. La sua visione della vita cambierà radicalmente. Dona diventerà l’epicentro della vita di Luca e viceversa. La pandemia però, entrerà a gamba tesa nella sua vita e in quella di tutto il paese.

Story
Studentă în anul doi la Harvard, Selin încearcă să își descifreze relația neconsumată cu Ivan. Mirările și nebuniile tipice vieții studențești nu-i aduc cele mai mari satisfacții, iar dinamica dintre femei și bărbați adesea o exasperează. Dornică să-și depășească dezamăgirea amoroasă și să înțeleagă condiția umană, Selin apelează la un ghid existențial mai puțin convențional: operele unor autori precum Proust, Pușkin sau Breton. Cel mai seducător model de existență se dovedește însă a fi cel propus de Kierkegaard, care opune hedonismul comportamentului responsabil, așteptat de societate.

Una novela sobre esos jóvenes impetuosos que hacen las guerras en primera línea mientras otros, en la retaguardia, toman la decisión de enviarlos y se desentienden del horror que causan. Lázaro es un joven aprendiz de escritor que, en opinión de su maestro, es incapaz de escribir historias largas, a pesar de su talento, porque pertenece a la generación de lo fragmentario, del post bloguero, el mensaje de Facebook o Twitter y el vídeo de YouTube. Para Lázaro, el problema estriba en que no tiene argumentos, en que le falta una historia que contar.
