Now in the pantheon of great thinkers, Simone Weil (1909–1943) lived largely in the shadows, searching for her spiritual home while bearing witness to the violence that devastated Europe twice in her brief lifetime. The letters she wrote to her parents and brother from childhood onward chart her intellectual range as well as her itinerancy and ever-shifting preoccupations, revealing the singular personality at the heart of her brilliant essays. The first complete collection of Weil's missives to her family, A Life in Letters offers new insight into her personal relationships and experiences.

ఇదిగో పాతికేళ్లు దాటని ఓ అమ్మాయి రాసిన ప్రేమలేఖలు "లెటర్స్ టు లవ్, కడలి ప్రేమలేఖలు".

As chief advisor to the emperor Nero, Lucius Annaeus Seneca was most influential in ancient Rome as a power behind the throne. His lasting fame derives from his writings on Stoic ideology, in which philosophy is a practical form of self-improvement rather than a matter of argument or wordplay. Seneca's letters to a young friend advise action rather than reflection, addressing the issues that confront every generation: how to achieve a good life; how to avoid corruption and self-indulgence; and how to live without fear of death.

Rituales chamánicos, el tamborilero que derrotó a Napoleón en 1808, un alcalde que balbucea ante Franco y espárragos que avistan ovnis: todo tiene cabida en El Bruc, un municipio a los pies de Montserrat que puede ser leído como un palimpsesto. El autor, un forastero apenas aterrizado, se entrega al ritmo biológico de la montaña y la observa y la vive desde sus estratos simbólicos y místicos, históricos y glocales.

El esperado nuevo libro del autor de eighteen. ¿Qué inspiró eighteen, el poemario revelación de Alberto Ramos? Este audiolibro narra sin cortapisas qué pasó en la vida de este joven estudiante para huir de su casa en Málaga rumbo a Suecia, esperando una vida mejor y encontrándose allí con otro tipo de crueldad, la marginación social, el abuso.

Frühjahr 1958: Ingeborg Bachmann ist gefeierte Lyrikerin, Preisträgerin der Gruppe 47 und "Coverstar" des Spiegel. Nun wird ihr Hörspiel "Der gute Gott von Manhattan" gesendet. Max Frisch, in dieser Zeit mit Inszenierungen von "Biedermann und die Brandstifter" beschäftigt, schreibt der jungen Dichterin, wie begeistert er von dem Hörspiel und wie wichtig der Blickwinkel der Frau, die Beleuchtung der "anderen Seite" sei.

Dacia Maraini che è stata una delle amiche più vicine a Pier Paolo Pasolini, in queste pagine intesse un dialogo intimo e sincero capace di prolungare e ravvivare un affetto profondo, nutrito di stima, esperienze artistiche e cinematografiche, idee e viaggi. Maraini costruisce questa confessione delicata come una corrispondenza senza tempo, in cui tutto è presente e vivo. Una voce necessaria per capire oggi chi è stato davvero uno degli uomini che hanno fatto la storia della cultura del Novecento.

For almost fifty years Michael Harding has been crafting words in a bid to express himself and explore truths about the human condition. But even still he found himself unable to say certain things he really wanted to. Then, while in recovery from surgery, he travelled to a cottage on the Atlantic coast and thought again about life and the people who had profoundly affected him; mentors, lovers and old friends. There at the ocean he wrote letters, with an intimacy not previously risked. Letters that were never posted, but that appear now in this audiobook.

"Walle! Walle manche Strecke, dass, zum Zwecke, Wasser fließe...."; wer kennt sie nicht, diese Verse aus dem "Zauberlehrling". Ganz sicher hätte sie Goethe nie geschrieben, wäre der Dichter nicht in regelmäßige Korrespondenz mit Schiller getreten, der ihn anspornte, für seine Zeitschriften eine Fülle von Lyrik und Prosa beizusteuern. Und was für den "Zauberlehrling" gilt, gilt für so viele weitere literarische Glanzpunkte in Goethes' wie auch in Schillers' Werk.

"Walle! Walle manche Strecke, dass, zum Zwecke, Wasser fließe...."; wer kennt sie nicht, diese Verse aus dem "Zauberlehrling". Ganz sicher hätte sie Goethe nie geschrieben, wäre der Dichter nicht in regelmäßige Korrespondenz mit Schiller getreten. Ohne ihren regelmäßigen Austausch wäre die literarische Weimarer Klassik, als einer der Höhepunkte der Literatur, heute wohl anderen Inhalts und womöglich weniger reich an großartigen Texten. Begleiten Sie in den Briefen Goethe und Schiller in ihre Denkwerkstatt.

The extant letters of Pliny, written between AD 97 and 112, give us a unique insight into Imperial Rome under the early Antonine emperors. Organised into 10 books, the letters reflect a wide range of topics, mirroring Pliny’s own public and private interests. Among many other subjects, the letters also include an eye-witness account of the eruption of Vesuvius in AD 79, with the final book containing the exchange of letters between the writer (whose career culminated as Governor of Bithynia) and the emperor Trajan.

It took me trying to save you to realize you weren't the person I thought you were. If you only knew how much I loved you, you would've understood why I wanted and needed to save you. This is for you, whoever you really are. And you just might be me.

Seven-year-old Frankie awakens the morning after her mother’s surgery to learn a horrible truth from her father: “Mommy didn’t make it.” Frankie’s life turns upside down as the house fills with visitors, a funeral is held, and Mommy lies in a satin coffin wearing a dress she’d never be caught—well, dead, wearing. It's powder blue! All wrong, wrong, wrong! Sadness envelops Frankie. She listens to children playing in the neighborhood, instead of joining them. She stays in her room, coloring, or reading, or otherwise drowning herself in grief.

The Second World War had been under way for a year when Marie and John Williamson welcomed two English brothers to join them and their two children in their small house in north Toronto for the duration of the conflict. Marie wrote over 150 letters to the boys’ mother, Margaret Sharp, imagining that she could make Margaret feel she was still with her children. She shepherded the boys through education decisions and illnesses, eased them into a strange new life, and rejoiced when they embraced unfamiliar winter sports.

The Bookshop in Wigtown is a bookworm's idyll—with thousands of books across nearly a mile of shelves, a real log fire, and Captain, the bookshop cat. You'd think after twenty years, owner Shaun Bythell would be used to the customers by now. Don't get him wrong—there are some good ones among the antiquarian porn-hunters, die-hard Arthurians, people who confuse bookshops for libraries and the toddlers just looking for a nice cosy corner in which to wee. He's sure there are. There must be some good ones, right?

La carta más famosa del siglo xx jamás llegó a su destinatario. Ni siquiera fue enviada. La escribió Franz Kafka de un tirón entre el 4 y el 20 de noviembre de 1919, y está dirigida a su padre, Hermann Kafka, comerciante judío en la ciudad de Praga. Escrita en un estilo que su propio autor calificó «de abogado», la carta es un memorial de las relaciones que había mantenido con su padre desde su nacimiento.

Des histoires sur un passé pas très lointain qui pourrait s'identifier à la réalité d'aujourd'hui, le présent non revu journalistiquement, des gens qui n'ont pas de représentations publiques communes, trop occupés en un sens pour penser à ce qu'ils n'ont jamais été supprimée afin de ne pas signifier un bien ou un mal contemporain. Aussi des contes autobiographiques tels que des expériences personnelles avec d'autres ou des possessions, la paix et les peines, les miracles, les amours et les amitiés.

When the Japanese invade in 1942, the Australian men and women stationed at the New Guinea port of Rabaul flee into the jungle. Written off by their government as ‘hostages to fortune', the little-known garrison on Australia's tropic frontier has been left with no modern equipment, no lifeline to the outside, and no means of escape. Most are captured and killed in the sinking of the prison ship Montevideo Maru, which remains Australia's worst sea disaster. But the surviving soldiers and nurses carry on.

From the critically acclaimed Colum McCann, author of the National Book Award winner Let the Great World Spin, comes a paean to the power of language, and a direct address to the artistic, professional and philosophical concerns that challenge and sometimes torment an author.
