Story
Michael Reynolds recreates the milieu that forged one of America's greatest and most influential writers. He reveals the fraught foundations of Hemingway's persona: his father's self-destructive battle with depression and his mother's fierce independence and spiritualism. He brings Hemingway through World War I, where he was frustrated by being too far away from the action and glory, despite his being wounded and nursed to health by Agnes Von Kurowsky - the older woman with whom he fell terribly in love.

Story
Yunte Huang ingeniously traces Charlie Chan from his real beginnings as a bullwhip-wielding detective in territorial Hawaii to his reinvention as a literary sleuth and Hollywood film icon. Huang finally resurrects the "honorable detective" from the graveyard of detested postmodern symbols and reclaims him as the embodiment of America’s rich cultural diversity. The result is one of the most critically acclaimed books of the year and a "deeply personal...voyage into racial stereotyping and the humanizing force of storytelling" (Donna Seaman, Los Angeles Times).

Gli scritti riuniti in questa raccolta vertono sulle funzioni della letteratura, su autori che Eco ha frequentato a lungo come Nerval, Joyce, Borges (ma anche Aristotele e Dante), sull’influenza di alcuni testi più o meno letterari sullo sviluppo degli eventi storici, su alcuni problemi tipici del narrare, come la rappresentazione verbale dello spazio, l’ironia intertestuale, la natura dei mondi possibili della finzione, e su alcuni concetti chiave della scrittura "creativa", come il simbolo, lo stile, la "zeppa" (ovvero i momenti apparentemente "morti", e meramente funzionali nello sviluppo d

Story
The Divergent series is delighting the world with its epic of Tris and Four struggling through revolutions to create a better world. But there are deeper meanings and symbols beneath the surface. Why is it fitting that teens numbered three and four should remake the world? How many Biblical references appear? Why are ravens and crows such popular symbols? And what themes and images does this series share with The Hunger Games and all the other dystopias, past and present?

Story
Novelists, poets and playwrights live double lives, sharing the real world with everyone else while spending a good deal of time in a universe of their own making. When they fall out with each other, they are able to kindle feuds and antagonisms as passionate and public as workers in any trade. Richard Bradford’s highly entertaining audiobook looks at some of the closest and most complex relationships in literary history, examining their dramatic effects on literature itself.

"Recuerdo la mañana en que conocí a Octavio Paz. Fue el 11 de marzo de 1976, en el Panteón Jardín, cuando un grupo de amigos despedíamos al gran ensayista Daniel Cosío Villegas [...] Me acerqué a él para proponerle la publicación en su revista Plural de un ensayo mío sobre el ilustre liberal recién desaparecido. Días después, mi nombre apareció junto al suyo, pero nunca sospeché que ese vínculo sería permanente."

Las ideas son las protagonistas de este audio libro, pero no las ideas en abstracto sino las ideas encarnadas en personas con vidas tocadas por la pasión del poder, la historia y la revolución; y también por el amor, la amistad, la familia. Vidas reales, no ideas andantes. Por este audiolibro desfilan profetas de la redención como el heroico Martí, el idealista Rodó, el educador Vasconcelos o el indigenista Mariátegui.

Incantate fantasmagorie e sorprendenti divagazioni sono quelle che animano il capolavoro letterario di Ariosto. Un'opera che profetizza la modernità e le sue mai prevedibili traiettorie. Un'opera che sembra volerci raccontare di semplici cavalieri erranti appartenenti a un mondo lontano, e invece parla di noi, abitatori del ventunesimo secolo. Questo è l'Orlando furioso. Un'avventura letteraria di cui sono protagonisti la follia e l'amore.

In ogni casa ce n'è almeno uno, basta solo guardare bene: sono nascosti sugli scaffali della sala, con le coste gialle che si intravedono dietro a tomi seriosi e capolavori della letteratura; spuntano fuori a sorpresa da un portariviste, tra un quotidiano e un settimanale politico; appaiono magicamente nelle mani di figli e nipoti, cuginetti e fratelli minori, che sgranano gli occhi su quelle vignette con la stessa meraviglia con cui lo abbiamo fatto noi anni fa e i nostri genitori prima di noi.

Story
Duemila anni fa un uomo guardò alla cultura del futuro, e ne anticipò una buona parte in un'opera visionaria e avveniristica: l'uomo era il poeta Lucrezio, l'opera il poema "De rerum natura". Tutte le grandi teorie scientifiche di oggi (l'atomismo fisico-chimico, il materialismo psicologico, l'evoluzionismo biologico) sono esposte e difese nei suoi canti. Tutte le grandi superstizioni umanistiche di ieri (la filosofia non epicurea, la letteratura non realistica, la religione non deista) sono criticate e attaccate nelle sue invettive.

Story
Tanto è manifesto l'appetito di Ezio Raimondi per i libri, che un'allieva impertinente gli attribuì la qualifica di "libridinoso". Non è però la passione del collezionista o del bibliomane. Il libro, dice Raimondi, è una creatura che ci parla, e leggere è un'occasione di incontro e di amicizia. Riandare ai libri che ci hanno accompagnato negli anni significa allora davvero ritrovare pagine e persone che ci sono state amiche.

Per Antonio Moresco "leggere non è solo leggere, è un incontro e un incrocio forte e rischioso di cromosomi, di corpi, di menti, di sogni". Da una lettura così intensa e fusionale nasce il trascinante dialogo che Moresco intreccia in queste pagine con Susi Pietri, francesista, appassionata studiosa e lettrice, che lo interroga sul suo incontro con Balzac.
