Tutto comincia quando Oriana viene spedita a casa dell'uomo del secolo: Christian Dior. Lei lo aveva già intervistato nel 1949 dopo averlo braccato nella hall di un albergo fiorentino. Dieci anni dopo è a Parigi pronta a non cedere: «Quando gli chiedo perché sia ancora scapolo, mi risponde con voce finalmente decisa: "Mademoiselle, dedico alle donne quattro quinti della mia vita. Quando entro in casa, non voglio più vederle né sentirne parlare". Infatti non ho visto che camerieri». La cultura pop che si fa largo nel mondo risorto dal dopoguerra scopre anche gli stilisti.

Durante décadas, José Ramón Fernández no solo narró el deporte, lo entendió y lo expuso como un espejo del poder, la corrupción y la injusticia. En estas memorias, el periodista que marcó un antes y un después en la televisión mexicana cuenta su historia: desde su infancia en Puebla, su formación intelectual y su despertar político en los años previos a 1968, las coberturas de Juegos Olímpicos y Copas del Mundo, hasta la construcción de un estilo periodístico frontal que desafió a los monopolios y dictaduras deportivas que moldearon—y deformaron—el deporte nacional.

This poem is a send up poem written about the insatiable drive that an over zealous optimist has of self, that possesses boundless energy, and enthusiasm for life, without fully realizing the implications and inherent mistakes that can come about. It encapsulates Youthful exuberance in spades, without the experience that sets a calculus on ones takeup of endeavours. This poem was written by myself sometime ago, and has only now had the opportunity to be spoken of.

«Mi vida se rompió muchas veces, pero cada vez fui encontrando piezas nuevas que no sabía que existían.» Crecer como okupa en un barrio complicado de Alcalá de Henares y dentro de los Testigos de Jehová marcó los límites de lo que Noemí creía que podía soñar. Aprendió desde niña a obedecer y a sentirse barro en manos de otros. Pero su vida estaba destinada a romperse muchas veces: un accidente que casi la destroza, un matrimonio impuesto por la culpa, una expulsión de los Testigos que la dejó completamente sola y alejada de su familia…

Marc Bennetts, foreign correspondent for The Times and The Sunday Times, moved to Russia in the chaotic yet free final years of President Yeltsin's rule. Twenty-five years later, The Times pulled him out of Russia over concerns for his security following his arrest in Moscow at a protest against the war in Ukraine. From the "wild" 1990s in Moscow to narrowly escaping death under fire in Ukraine, The Descent is a unique and personal diary of how Russia spiraled into violent insanity.

From the streets of Chicago to the launch control centers of America's nuclear force, from beating the odds in a near-fatal medical crisis to running marathons across Europe-this is the extraordinary story of a man who refused to quit.

Publiée en 1935, cet essai offre un portrait exhaustif d'Érasme et de son influence chrétienne, humaniste et intellectuelle. Puis, en seconde moitié, décrit le débat qui l'oppose à Luther et aux réformateurs germaniques et qui s'achève par la victoire du schisme et du machiavélisme. Défaite d'Érasme qui se limite à un travail intellectuel, en chambre, et refuse de débattre publiquement avec ses adversaires notamment lors de la diète de Worms en 1521, ce qui rappelle la formule de Péguy (sur Kant) « il a les mains pures, mais il n'a pas de mains ».

Published in 1923, My Universities is the final instalment in the autobiographical trilogy by five-time Nobel Prize-nominee Maxim Gorky. Despite his failed attempts to enter the university at Kazan, Gorky forges an education of his own as he encounters an unusual array of characters–revolutionaries, religious fanatics, theological students and eccentric schoolteachers. Snatching cherished moments for reading books, a relief from the drudgery of his work in a bakery, Gorky comes to see the superficiality of a formal education.

In 1969, Honor Moore was twenty-three, a theater student yearning for love and working for radical change, but studying administration and keeping secret, even from herself, her wish to imagine the world by becoming a poet. There was an older lover, a professor, and, with another man, an unwanted sexual encounter. That spring, she had an abortion. A Termination is the story of the young woman who made that decision, and of how that act of resistance, then shrouded in fear and silence, has reverberated throughout her life since.

From 9/11 to the killing of George Floyd, she stood at the heart of America's biggest tragedies, exposing corruption and giving victims a voice.
