Paolo Di Paolo ripercorre la vita di Piero Gobbetti in modo personalissimo e con la lente di una prossimità che oggi si avverte con più forza: quella di Piero non è affatto una parentesi chiusa nella storia, nella pagina di una vecchia rivista. Al contrario, la voce del ragazzo con gli occhiali a stanghetta e i capelli arruffati risuona di nuovo nel deserto del nostro cinismo. Ricaricando di senso una grande lezione morale, invitandoci a «restare politici nel tramonto della politica», a non arrenderci mai al pessimismo e alla rassegnazione.

Burns highlights the two facets of Rand's work that make her a perennial draw for those on the right: Her promotion of capitalism, and her defense of limited government.

Tolkien, and Charles Williams - remarkable friends, writers, and scholars - met regularly to discuss philosophy and literature and to read aloud from their own works in progress.

Émile Zola was the leader of the literary movement known as "naturalism" and is one of the great figures of the novel. In his monumental Les Rougon-Macquart (1871-93), he explored the social and cultural landscape of the late 19th century in ways that scandalized bourgeois society. Zola opened the novel up to a new realm of subjects, including the realities of working-class life, class relations, and questions of gender and sexuality, and his writing embodied a new freedom of expression, with his bold, outspoken voice often inviting controversy.

Published in 1913, My Childhood is the first in an autobiographical trilogy by the Russian writer and five-time Nobel Prize-nominee Maxim Gorky. Painfully moving in places, the book tells of the experiences of a young boy who goes to live with his grandparents following the death of his father. Gorky’s depiction of 19th-century Russia through the eyes of his younger self is remarkable. As he recalls memories of his youth, contrasting themes and emotions are revealed, from barbaric joy to dark gloom, genuine cruelty and saint-like forbearance.
