Story0
Lo incontriamo da ragazzino mentre "scarpagna" verso le Bisacconi (le scuole elementari del paese). Sono gli anni '50 e mentre ruba in una vigna un grappolo di schizzozibibbo, Lupetto, così lo chiamano, vede un uomo alto, con una barba immensa e un vecchio cane. È una divinità pagana, sporca come un letamaio, che gli regala una facoltà meravigliosa: un orologio interno, un orobilogio, che gli consentirà di correre avanti nel tempo.

Margherita Dolcevita è una ragazzina allegra, intelligente e appena sovrappeso, con un cuore che di tanto in tanto perde un colpo. Vive con la famiglia fra città e campagna. Un giorno, davanti alla sua casa, spunta, come un fungo, un cubo di vetro nero circondato da un asettico giardino sintetico e da una palizzata di siepi. Sono arrivati i signori Del Bene, i portatori del "nuovo", della beatitudine del consumo. Amici o corruttori? La famiglia di Margherita cade in una sorta di oscuro incantesimo, nessuno rimane immune.

Se si fugge di notte da Villa Bacilla sulle ali di una diavolessa sexy, sorvolando Tristala assieme a tre equipaggi che si spostano contemporaneamente, può accadere di visitare gli otto mondi alterei della mappa nootica. Capita così di conoscere la terra primordiale di Ermete Trismegisto, Protoplas; i mari incantati di Capitan Guepière a Posidon; i cinquanta casinò e i locali notturni di Bludus; Mnemonia con i suoi fuochi fatui e l'insidia dell'embambolia; Medium con le sue giornate di Beneficenza Ben-evidente.

Story0
Comici spaventati guerrieri è una "recherche" metropolitana che si dilata coralmente come un blues ritmando spostamenti e appostamenti, separazioni e incontri, agguati e fughe, colpi di kung-fu e spari, amori improvvisi e improvvise amicizie, dialoghi, monologhi, visioni e sogni. Sulle sue note ilari aleggia l'atmosfera acre della città e l'infinita distanza tra "centro" e "periferia". Giacché questo è un romanzo in cui il riso ricade sul cinismo, la corruzione squallida e dorata, la stupidità di questi anni che qualcuno ha definito e qualcuno ha voluto bui.

Dopo più di vent'anni il mitico Bar Sport e i suoi magnifici eroi hanno subito le trasformazioni del tempo: la proverbiale pasta Luisona è scomparsa, nel Bar Veramente Fico adesso espongono brioche invisibili a occhio nudo; tra gli avventori nessuno ha più una colorazione naturale, e si possono ammirare le abbronzature color albicocca o vitel tonné maschili piuttosto che i color biscotto dei fard e dei Caraibi femminili; nuovi elementi, tra cui spiccano i tristemente noti cellularisti, abilissimi nel rispondere al trillo nelle situazioni più impervie.

Uno strano personaggio, un po' Marlowe un po' mago, titolare di una delle più antiche magie del mondo, passa le notti tra nostalgie e sbronze colossali al bar Apocalypso.

Un giorno riceve la lettera di uno sconosciuto che lo invita a un misterioso appuntamento. Ulisse, incuriosito, risponde e conosce Achille, un ragazzo gravemente malato che gli apre un mondo inatteso di assurdità, vitalità e dolore.

Uno sceneggiatore di Tangeri che soffre gravemente di insonnia scopre che per poter finalmente dormire deve uccidere qualcuno. Incomincia da sua madre. Sembra assurdo, anzi è assurdo - è sempre stato un uomo onesto, rispettoso, gentile - ma solo uccidendo, come in un gioco surreale, guadagna dei punti-sonno. Per minimizzare il problema, decide di limitarsi a persone già in fin di vita; la sfida è riuscire a essere lì, al loro capezzale, un attimo prima che spirino da sé. Il protagonista dà così il via a imprese rocambolesche per infilarsi nelle camere di ospedale.

C'era una volta un uomo fatto di salsicce. E c'era una volta una ragazza vegetariana. L'uomo fatto di salsicce aggredisce la ragazza vegetariana. La ragazza vegetariana torna a casa col sangue che cola lungo le cosce, sutura la ferita con ago e filo e prova a fare come se niente fosse. Ma fare come se niente fosse è difficile, perché l'uomo fatto di salsicce non smette di perseguitarla: spiandola dal bosco vicino a scuola, affacciandosi a una finestra, spuntando da un lampione.

At the turn of the 20th century, as he composes a treatise on melancholy, Jacov Reinhardt sets off from his small Croatian village in search of his hero and unwitting mentor, Emiliano Gomez Carrasquilla, who is rumored to have disappeared into the South American jungle - "not lost, mind you, but retired." Jacov's narcissistic preoccupation with melancholy consumes him, and as he desperately recounts the myth of his journey to his trusted but ailing scribe, hope for an encounter with the lost philosopher who holds the key to Jacov's obsession seems increasingly unlikely.

More than 500 years before his friendship with Kitty, noble Ricardo de Avila's life met a fate-changing twist, and his morally complex, blood-soaked existence as an immortal began. Before being turned, Ricardo de Avila would have followed Coronado to the ends of the earth. Instead he found the end of his mortal life - and a new one, as a renegade vampire. For over 500 years as an immortal, Ricardo has followed his own moral code, upsetting the established order in the demon world.

Animal Farm is an allegorical satire of the events leading up to the Russian Revolution of 1917, and then on into the Stalinist era of the Soviet Union. Orwell described the book as a satirical tale against Stalin and went on to say that it was the first book in which he tried “to fuse political purpose and artistic purpose into one whole”. All of the leading figures involved in this period are parodied as various animals.

After a domestic terrorist unleashes a dirty bomb in Manhattan in 1970, making the borough uninhabitable, FBI Agent Uli Sarkisian finds himself in a world that is suddenly unrecognizable, as the United States faces its greatest immigration crisis ever: finding housing for millions of its own citizens. The federal government hastily retrofits an abandoned government installation in the Nevada desert. Despite the government's best intentions, as the military pulls out of "Rescue City", the residents are increasingly left to their own devices, and tribal gang warfare fuses with democracy.
