Una figlia appassionata, un padre che è stato uno degli scrittori più importanti del Novecento, una famiglia i cui ricordi emergono nitidi come personaggi di un romanzo. Giorgio Bassani abita il lessico famigliare che la figlia Paola racconta per la prima volta in questo libro, con la stessa forza poetica e umana che ha accompagnato la sua vita e la vasta produzione letteraria. Poeta, narratore, insegnante, giornalista, sportivo, politico, sceneggiatore, e accanto e soprattutto padre, marito e uomo passionale, innamorato della bellezza in tutte le sue forme.

En este audiolibro, Sheridan arma los fragmentos de una autobiografía que escribió sin proyecto, pero sin titubeos. Un autorretrato que se teje casualmente con los materiales de la infancia, el árbol genealógico, las sosegadas aventuras de la edad adulta, los libros, y todas esas experiencias que se asientan en el cuerpo y el espíritu, conformando así al individuo. Toda una vida estaría conmigo es un recorrido por la azarosa, entrañable galería de la memoria que vuelve y da sentido y orden al caos del presente.

This came to pass in 1975, when Foucault spent Memorial Day weekend in Southern California at the invitation of Simeon Wade - ostensibly to guest-lecture at the Claremont Graduate School where Wade was an assistant professor, but in truth to explore what he called the Valley of Death.

Cumplir cincuenta años sigue siendo algo inquietante, a pesar del progreso científico, del retraso de la mortalidad y del aumento en la calidad de la vida contemporánea. El escritor Fernando Iwasaki lo comprobó cuando compiló las crónicas que publicó en el suplemento «Laberinto» del diario Milenio y entonces decidió titularlas El laberinto de los cincuenta porque “al releerlas descubrí divertido el típico tono retro, a veces enfurruñado, siempre nostálgico y en cualquier caso amarrido....

Mohan Rakesh ki zindagi ek khuli kitaab hai. Usne jo kuch likha aur kiya- vah duniya ko maalum hai. Lekin usne jo kuch jiya- yeh sirf use maalum tha.

El primer recuerdo en la vida de Ander Izagirre es una explosión de gritos, saltos y abrazos en casa de sus abuelos: el gol de Zamora que daba la liga a la Real Sociedad en el último suspiro. A partir de ese primer recuerdo luminoso, Izagirre va tirando del hilo, recogiendo historias asombrosas de su familia, de su ciudad (San Sebastián) y de un mítico estadio, Atocha, en donde "se mezclaba el tufo fermentado y dulzón del mercado de frutas con el aroma fresco de la hierba recién regada y el humo de los puros".

For me travelling is like that constant feeling of retrospection and soul searching inside of me. For some reason, stories of people from faraway lands make my mind anxious and my brain go into a frenzy. It has been mentioned innumerable times that happiness cannot be found outside of you; it is inside of you - in one’s heart. Even then we go out in search of happiness - either through materialistic possessions or through someone else’s existence.

The memoirs of distinguished writer Swayam Prakash trace his life journey from the time he started working, in 1966, to his voluntary retirement from his job, in 2003.

The stories of their intertwined lives and books embody feminism’s belief in the political importance of personal experience.

Rushing to the doctor’s office, mother and son arrived to find Clarence Humphrey battered beyond recognition: his chest crushed, his face bruised black and caked with blood, his teeth shattered.
