In November 1966, by way of Mexico City, Eton College, Balliol College, Oxford, and a Norwegian raspberry farm, Anthony Cheetham entered the doors of a publishing company for the first time to begin work as a junior editor. Fifty-eight years later he could look back on a career in which he had shaped the landscape of post-war British publishing to a significant degree. A Life in 50 Books is an affectionate and revelatory account of a publishing life remarkable for its longevity, its entrepreneurial energy and for the breadth and catholicity of its output.

Confiteor è il racconto dell'uomo che sono diventato, non flusso di coscienza, ma fatti, storie. E l'attraversamento, in settant'anni di vita, di tre secoli, dal mio "Ottocento" a oggi. Piergiorgio Paterlini ci consegna un mondo, non soltanto un libro. Raccontando di sé - in una confessione sorprendente, spregiudicata, il bisbiglìo a un amico durante una lunga notte - incrocia la sua storia personale con quella di un Paese, tra amarcord e ricerca delle radici, tra romanzo di formazione e la scelta di vivere "dalla parte del torto".

Lui, Roberto Calasso, è l'editore che raccoglie autori di tutto il mondo sotto il tetto della casa editrice Adelphi, di cui è direttore editoriale, oltre a essere scrittore di grande erudizione e raffinatezza. Lei, Anna Katharina Fröhlich, si trasferisce da Francoforte a Mornaga, sul lago di Garda. È una donna giovane e avventurosa, circondata da libri e da un rigoglioso giardino, sulla strada per diventare una scrittrice di successo. I due si incontrano per la prima volta alla Fiera del libro di Francoforte nell'ottobre del 1995.

By daytime, Ukraine is a sophisticated European country going about its business, and Kyiv seems like an enchanting city. But by night, the sirens roar, and the war begins. Ukraine is using the amount of ammunition that all of Europe produces in one day, and yet on the surface, much of the country appears to be going about its business as usual. This is a very different audiobook as this is a very different war – one fought by a huge army of civilians, from old punk rockers to university professors and Coca Cola brand managers who are working behind the scenes to outwit the Russian army.

My Russia is an autobiography that traces Jill Dougherty's fascination with Russia and shares the insights into the country, its people, and its leader she has gleaned through forty years of reporting.

What happens when magazine editors behave worse than the celebrities they feature? Shock, comedy, and farce, expertly chronicled in Jeremy Murphy's Too Good to Fact Check, a firsthand account of his ten years traveling with stars as the editor of a glossy magazine. In between taking Julianna Marguiles to the Côte d'Azur, Neil Patrick Harris aboard the Orient Express, and LL Cool J to Paris among other locales, the author lived a wild, decadent life that rivaled anyone he was covering, and recounts the most outrageous moments in colorful, candid detail.

هذا الكتاب يعد جوهرة أدبية نادرة.. إنه رحلات عبر مشارق الأرض ومغاربها، معرفية أحيانا، فلسفية دائما، مدهشة في كثير من الأحيان. قول طه حسين في مقدمة الطبعة الثالثة لهذا الكتاب: "هذا كتاب ممتع حقاً: تقرؤه، فلا تنقص متعتك، بل تزيد كلما تقدمت في قراءته". ويقول محمود تيمور في مقدمة الطبعة "التاسعة": كاتب الرحلات الناجح هو الذي تتوفر له ألمعية الملاحظة، ورهافة الفطنة، وسرعة الالتقاط والقدرة على استبانة الملامح والمعالم وبخاصة ما يدق منها على النظرة العابرة، وما يتصل منها بالعادات والسلوك والأوضاع الاجتماعية التي لا تخلو من غرابة.. وكل هذه المؤهلات تستجمع للأستاذ أنيس منصور..

Gorilla Parts is a roller coaster ride from blue-collar Canarsie to Manhattan’s most elite VIP rooms; a common-man’s extended glimpse into the last true era of limitless celebrity freedom: Pre-internet New York City.

Вадим Храппа — писатель и радиожурналист. Многие его хорошо знают по радиопрограмме "Чисто по-русски", в которой он рассказывал о тонкостях русского языка. Например, как из века в век преобразовывались и становились языковым явлением слова и выражения, что они означали, каким образом были связаны с историей нашей культуры. Почему восторг — административный, а легендарное яблоко — Адамово? Каково прослыть белой вороной? Есть ли смысл строить воздушные замки? Что такое "абракадабра" и что общего у конфет и конфетти? Какой тон называют "менторским"? Книга В.

Cea mai cunoscută carte a Oliviei Laing, Orașul solitar este un text radiant despre singurătate, mecanismele care o provoacă și despre cum ne putem doza resursele interioare pentru a-i face față. Apelând la biografiile și creațiile unor artiști precum Edward Hopper, Andy Warhol, Henry Darger sau David Wojnarowicz, Laing documentează o călătorie filozofică în care singurătatea devine insula fiecăruia dintre noi, iar povestirea ne poartă, pagină cu pagină, mai aproape de centru.

Sono stati scritti libri su libri sulla giovinezza, ma non c’è granché sull’invecchiamento. E visto che ho imboccato ormai da un po’ quella strada, mi sono detta: "Perché non provarci?". E quindi ecco, ci provo.” Dopo aver trascorso anni tra libri e scrittori come celebre editor, si è scoperta lei stessa autrice e a novantun anni, quando ha deciso di raccontare, senza falsi pudori, senza veli o paure, ma soprattutto senza rimpianti per le scelte del passato non tanto cosa c’è stato prima, quanto quello che le sarebbe successo da quel momento in poi: la vecchiaia.

" Alors que j’achevais la rédaction de ce livre, la cérémonie d’ouverture des Jeux olympiques est venue raviver le feu de ma plume : la France est la victime d’un mémoricide. Une ablation de sa mémoire. Une spoliation, une péremption de ses souvenirs. L’Esprit français a été immolé. Toute ma vie, je me suis battu. Contre un progressisme en quête incessante des figures nouvelles de l’insolite et du fantasque.
