جذبتني كالنداهة لأغوص في بهورها اللانهائية. وكلما غصت أكثر وغمرتني المياه، طفوت قليلًا، لأعاود الغوص من جديد.. إنها مهنة الصحافة التي عشقتها، وعشتها كأنها الحياة بأكملها! جُمل لأستاذي العظيم (مصطفى أمين) حفرت نفقًا عميقًا في ذاكرة إحساسي، وبؤرة تفكيري: "الصحفي الحقيقي هو من يعيش 24 ساعة صحفيًا"... "أنا أكتب كما أتنفس"..

Bernard se encuentran compilados en Cartas a mi maestro. Una edición en forma de homenaje a ese magnífico vínculo de gratitud y ternura que los unió.

Io, attratto da un'altra vegetazione, quella delle frasi scritte, voltai le spalle a quanto essi m'avrebbero potuto insegnare; ma la sapienza dell'umano mi restò ugualmente estranea." (Italo Calvino)

This is perhaps one of the best-loved of all journals. William Wordsworth's sister, Dorothy, began it in May 1800 and resolved to keep it for a short time. She continued it for nearly three years.

George Bernard Shaw has been called the second greatest playwright in English (after William Shakespeare) and one of the inventors of modern celebrity as the most famous public intellectual of his time.

That his legacy endures 70 years after his death is testament to the prescience of his thinking and his prolific creativity.

A startling and revelatory examination of Nabokov’s life and works—notably Pale Fire and Lolita—bringing new insight into one of the twentieth century’s most enigmatic authors. Novelist Vladimir Nabokov witnessed the horrors of his century, escaping Revolutionary Russia then Germany under Hitler, and fleeing France with his Jewish wife and son just weeks before Paris fell to the Nazis. He repeatedly faced accusations of turning a blind eye to human suffering to write artful tales of depravity. But does one of the greatest writers in the English language really deserve the label of amoral aesthete bestowed on him by so many critics?

She acknowledged in a later edition of the book that she is not the author. "It is Pete Martin's book, and my dad's story," she wrote, further noting this book was "one of the first biographies of my dad.
