Najnowsza publikacja Iwony Kienzler poświęcona jest tytułowym „grzechom" Żeromskiego, jego burzliwej, pełnej miłosnych przygód młodości oraz zawiłościom życia w małżeństwie i w konkubinacie. Autorka nie pomija także literackiej spuścizny pisarza i przybliża okoliczności powstawania jego kolejnych dzieł. Celem książki nie jest bowiem strącenie „sumienia narodu" z pomnika, który wystawiły mu przeszłe pokolenia, a jedynie ukazanie jego ludzkiego oblicza.

Have you ever felt boxed in by the limitations of your own life choices or other people's labels? In unboxing Blu, author and humorist Blu Wyatt takes us on a hilarious wild ride through her life and the many boxes she's found herself in--either by her own choices or other people's less-than-positive expectations. Through fourteen head injuries, a bipolar diagnosis, suicide attempts, and a daddy who said she'd never amount to anything, Blu Wyatt's story shouldn't have ended well--but it did, and she'll keep you laughing through it all!

Ce livre retrace minutieusement la vie de l'auteur du Mythe de Cthulhu, de son enfance solitaire et pleine d'explorations à sa mort prématurée, rongé par la maladie et la pauvreté. Si le « Maître de Providence » se revendique comme fondamentalement cartésien, de nombreux indices disséminés dans ses écrits (romans, correspondance, poèmes et essais) laissent penser tout le contraire ! Entre un rationalisme affirmé et des croyances secrètes obsessionnelles, H. P Lovecraft est une énigme presque parfaite.

Escritor extraordinariamente popular y testigo de excepción de los cambios que convulsionaron la Europa del siglo XX entre las dos guerras mundiales, Zweig recuerda, desposeído y en tierra extraña—en unas circunstancias personales de insospechado dramatismo—, los momentos fundamentales de su vida, paralela en mucho a la desintegración de aquella Europa central que se quería más libre y segura, al abrigo de la locura y la tormenta. El resultado es un libro capital, uno de los mejores de Zweig y referencia inexcusable para entender los desvaríos de un siglo devastador.

Wit and Wisdom of Oscar Wilde is a timeless collection of the sharpest observations, paradoxes, and epigrams from one of literature’s most brilliant minds. Oscar Wilde’s wit is elegant, mischievous, and relentlessly insightful. With effortless precision, he skewers social conventions, exposes hypocrisy, and reveals enduring truths about love, ambition, beauty, morality, and human folly. Each quotation stands alone yet contributes to a larger portrait of Wilde’s worldview—one that prizes individuality, intellectual courage, and the art of living well.

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien (January 3, 1892 to September 2, 1973) was an English writer and philologist. He was the author of the high fantasy works The Hobbit (1937) and The Lord of the Rings (1954–55). While many other authors had published works of fantasy before Tolkien, the success of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings precipitated an avalanche of new books and authors in the genre.

You will never forget 9 Hours Later which is the fifth volume in my Daily Autobiography series. It’s a daily diary written in the aftermath of divorce, while living alone again, dating as a sober man, and rebuilding momentum one ordinary day at a time. I didn’t write this to fit a genre or deliver a clean arc. I wrote it to document what actually happens when the structure of marriage disappears and you’re left alone with time, desire, discipline, and your own thoughts. Sobriety runs through everything here.

На этот раз Денис Драгунский переносит нас в атмосферу конца 60-х и начала 70-х, на легендарный филфак МГУ — в мир шумных коридоров и высоких академических амбиций.

Языки, которые вроде бы «мёртвые», а на деле — полны жизни.

Paola Caridi ci presenta e racconta le storie dietro agli alberi – e ai giardini botanici – più simbolici del Medio Oriente e del Mediterraneo.

To the public, Dickens appeared a champion of kindness and morality, but behind closed doors, he treated his wife, Catherine, with a cruelty that stunned those who knew the family.

À partir de la correspondance adressée à Louise entre 1851 et 1855 (près de 250 lettres), André Versaille a bâti une longue lettre, sorte de thèse emblématique de la correspondance du Flaubert des années Bovary. Ce texte n'est pas seulement un témoignage exceptionnel sur la genèse au quotidien d'une grande œuvre, il constitue également un très personnel « Qu'est-ce que la littérature ? » À ses idées sur l'art, le roman et la critique, Flaubert mêle des attaques vengeresses contre la bêtise et le grotesque de la vie, décochées d'une plume jubilatoire.
