Beth Jannery's novel Unapologetic explores the life of Delilah Auburn, a woman at a crossroads in her middle age, seeking to break free from a past marked by upheaval and emotional distance. Finally, a novel that turns childhood trauma into truth and healing. Unapologetic stands as a testament to the resilience and courage required for personal healing and growth. In the same spirit as the works of Miranda July and Glennon Doyle, Jannery’s novel bravely exposes raw emotions and tackles real topics with a vulnerability that feels akin to walking through the world with no skin—exposed and raw.

Simonetta Agnello Hornby prende le mosse dalla domanda più semplice, più diretta, con cui ci interroghiamo quotidianamente: "Quello che sto facendo è giusto o sbagliato?". A partire da lì si toccano la giustizia dentro l'istituto famigliare, i fenomeni di ingiustizia sociale, lo spettro delle guerre (esistono guerre giuste?), l'amministrazione della giustizia, l'educazione di figli e nipoti. Agnello Hornby cerca esempi nella vita animale e indaga sulla rappresentazione della giustizia nella cultura popolare, nell'arte, nella letteratura, nelle storie che contribuiscono a creare una sensibilità civile.

It constitutes a series of anecdotal snippets and short stories including 'The Picnic', a laugh-out-loud account of an ill-fated Durrell family excursion, which should have been a relaxing, jolly affair. But with the Durrells things are seldom straightforward and on this occasion all that could go wrong did go wrong – except Gerald Durrell's sense of humour in recounting the tale. Other hilarious and surreal Roald Dahlesque stories ensue, including the critically acclaimed Gothic horror story 'The Entrance'.

This book will accentuate the need for relevance in service. In The Call up Letter, Toluwalope Olotu explores, albeit elegantly, a bio fiction’s prodding yet scintillating story that expresses a typical life escapades of a young African man as he journeys through life phases. It is a bio-fictitious potpourri of a sort with traces of verisimilitude, undulating in waves of doggedness in determination, faith, and in exploring every given opportunity that comes knocking. It is also a harvest of a deeply creative, adventurous, observant, and innovative mind.

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant Nobel-prize-nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

In the century's darkest time, one man became the most unlikely of heroes.

Here is the story on which Steven Spielberg based his powerful motion picture. If you like this, try Ursula Hegi's Stones from a River.

"Dans "L'Amant", Marguerite Duras reprend sur le ton de la confidence les images et les thèmes qui hantent toute son œuvre. Ses lecteurs vont pouvoir ensuite descendre ce grand fleuve aux lenteurs asiatiques et suivre la romancière dans tous les méandres du delta, dans la moiteur des rizières, dans les secrets ombreux où elle a développé l'incantation répétitive et obsédante de ses livres, de ses films, de son théâtre."
