Este es sin duda el libro más perturbador que ha escrito Chantal Maillard hasta la fecha. En él se enfrenta a los grandes temas sobre los que la humanidad lleva interrogándose desde el principio de los tiempos. El nacimiento, el dolor y la muerte, los dioses y su ausencia, la relación de nuestra especie con los demás seres vivos, la maternidad y el suicidio, la culpa y la inocencia, el juicio y la creencia. Todo ello girando en torno al eje de una primordial violencia que todos padecemos a la vez que infligimos.

Napoli è la città meno equilibrata del mondo. È una metropoli complessa, piena di sfaccettature, è più città in una: un miscuglio di colori e di stati d'animo, di stili architettonici e classi sociali, di sapori dolci e salati, pastiera e pizza, sfogliatella e ragù, di musica antica e neomelodica, di fede e scaramanzia. Come fare allora a catturare le sue mille anime? Acuto osservatore dei piccoli e grandi fatti di cronaca della sua città, Lorenzo Marone sceglie di raccontare Napoli a modo suo, lasciandosi sorprendere da ciò che gli accade intorno.

Ogni libro parla di altri libri. Ma ogni libro è, anche, una finestra sul mondo. Il libro può far rivivere il passato, o presagire il futuro. Ci porta in paesi lontani, ci fa parlare con chi non c'è più e scoprire universi ignoti. E gli scrittori? Quanto sappiamo della loro vita, a volte persino più avventurosa dei loro romanzi? Da questi ventisei capitoli - tanti quante, dall'A alla Z, le lettere dell'alfabeto - come da altrettante finestre attraverso una fitta rete di richiami culturali Hans Tuzzi scopre, di volta in volta, inediti punti di vista su noi stessi e sul nostro passato.

In quale tempo e in quale spazio ha luogo il singolare, fragile evento della lettura? Da queste domande prende avvio il breve e nitido saggio che Ezio Raimondi, uno dei massimi studiosi della letteratura oggi in Italia, ha dedicato al leggere. È un atto apparentemente semplice, un gesto quotidiano, eppure leggere è un rapporto complesso fra due persone, l'autore e il lettore, che ha luogo attraverso un testo. Chi legge fa vivere un testo, lo realizza, mettendosi così in comunicazione con l'altro, con una diversità.

Dans son Journal d'une apprentie chamane, Corine Sombrun racontait l'incroyable aventure qui l'avait conduite, sur les traces d'un chamane péruvien, au fin fond de la forêt amazonienne. Elle a poursuivi sa quête spirituelle en Mongolie auprès des chamanes Tsaatanes, qui vont lui révéler qu'elle est elle-même chamane et doit suivre leur enseignement.

Funny, poignant and reflective, The Weight of a Cherry Blossom is a fable of rootlessness and belonging in the modern world. It is equal parts a story of urban loneliness and self-discovery and of the healing powers of kinship and love. Revisiting the awkwardness of adolescence and the chaos of growing up, it looks the foibles of adulthood irreverently in the eye.

Honduras no es Irak, pero en algún momento, Alberto Arce - único corresponsal extranjero en Tegucigalpa de 2012 a 2014 - lo vivió así. Honduras no es Irak, pero cada año mueren asesinadas 85 personas por cada 100.000 habitantes, una cifra que supera a la de Irak. Honduras vive una de las guerras no declaradas menos contadas del mundo. Una guerra laberíntica de todos contra todos.

¿Qué implicaciones tiene ser madre, parir y dar de mamar? Las mujeres nos enfrentamos a una doble presión, ser mamás, como dicta el mantra patriarcal, y triunfar o sobrevivir como podamos en el mercado de trabajo: un ejercicio casi imposible de malabarismos cotidianos. A lo largo de la historia, la maternidad ha sido utilizada como instrumento de control y supeditación de las mujeres. Pero, una vez conquistado el derecho a no ser madres, tenemos pendiente reapropiarnos de la experiencia materna.

Briallen Hopper's Hard to Love honours the categories of loves and relationships beyond marriage, the ones that are often treated as invisible or seen as secondary - friendships, kinship with adult siblings, care teams that form in times of illness, or various alternative family formations. She also values difficult and amorphous loves like loving a challenging job or inanimate objects that can't love you back.

David Shields’s The Trouble with Men: Reflections on Sex, Love, Marriage, Porn, and Power is an immersion into the perils, limits, and possibilities of human intimacy. All at once a love letter to his wife, a nervy reckoning with his own fallibility, a meditation on the impact of porn on American culture, and an attempt to understand marriage (one marriage, the idea of marriage, all marriages), The Trouble with Men is exquisitely balanced between the personal and the anthropological, nakedness and restraint.

On her 120-acre homestead high in the Colorado Rockies, beloved writer Pam Houston learns what it means to care for a piece of land and the creatures on it. Elk calves and bluebirds mark the changing seasons, winter temperatures drop to 35 below, and lightning sparks a 110,000-acre wildfire, threatening her century-old barn and all its inhabitants. Through her travels from the Gulf of Mexico to Alaska, she explores what ties her to the Earth, the ranch most of all.

For over 60 years, since his award-winning debut, The Room on the Roof, was published, Ruskin Bond has charmed and entertained us with characters ranging from the animal world to humans to ghostly spirits, and his magic touch has often presented to us a world unhurried, tucked away in hills and valleys. What does it mean to be an octogenarian loved by the young and old alike? To be synonymous with the smell of pinewood and rambling mountain paths? In short, what is it that makes him Bond?

Drawing on the author’s seven years of caring for his mother through Alzheimer's, Be With: Letters to a Caregiver is what its title promises: four dispatches to an anonymous long-term caregiver. In brief passages that cast fresh light on what it means to live with dementia, Barnes shares trials, insights, solace - and, ultimately, inspiration.

A lifetime of reading and writing, observation and contemplation is distilled in this comprehensive volume of the best essays, profiles and sketches by Ruskin Bond, the masterly and compassionate chronicler of the small details and lambent moments that capture the essence of a meaningful life. By turns thoughtful, humorous, keenly observed and wise, these essays span more than 60 years of his writing - from reflections on companionship and solitude to lyrical yet finely honed appreciations of nature to nostalgic evocations of bygone people and ways of life.
