Ci sono momenti nella vita in cui si sente il bisogno di prendersi una pausa e ripercorrere con calma, senza le continue incombenze quotidiane, le tappe della nostra esistenza. Un viaggio che, anche nei momenti difficili e bui, ci ha portato a provare un sentimento di riconoscenza e gratitudine verso chi ha condiviso con noi il cammino, le prove, le epifanie. Così Chiara, alla soglia dei sessant’anni, approfittando dell’improvviso silenzio che avvolge la sua casa in collina, decide di scrivere tre lettere.

Sybil Van Antwerp has throughout her life used letters to make sense of the world and her place in it. Most mornings, around half past ten, Sybil sits down to write letters—to her brother, to her best friend, to the president of the university who will not allow her to audit a class she desperately wants to take, to Joan Didion and Larry McMurtry to tell them what she thinks of their latest books, and to one person to whom she writes often yet never sends the letter.

In her letters to family and friends we come to know the life of Sybil Van Antwerp: stubborn, cantankerous, opinionated, always steadfast in her belief in the power of the written word. But as the clock begins to tick for Sybil, the need for a few post-scripts to the life she’s led becomes apparent. Fixing her difficult relationship with her children. Taking a final chance at romance. Atoning for an old legal case which has come back to haunt her. And finally, reckoning with a devastating loss that she has spent the last thirty years holding close to her chest.

In modern society writing a letter, on paper, is almost unheard of. We all scribble notes and reminders but very rarely compose our thoughts in lengthy prose for another person to read. In this volume our talented authors bring us a plethora of narratives that centre themselves on how vital a few lines are to characters navigating through the twists and turns of a story.

In 175 Briefen wird die skrupellose Geschichte zweier Intrigen erzählt: Einzig für ihre persönliche Rache und ihr sexuelles Vergnügen verführen die Marquise de Merteuil und der Vicomte de Valmont die naive Cécile de Volanges und die tugendhafte und verheiratete Madame de Tourvel. Ihre zerstörerischen Pläne führen jedoch zu einem bitteren Ende, in dem Liebe, Betrug, Verrat und Bestrafung untrennbar miteinander verwoben sind. Der berühmte Roman von Choderlos de Laclos verbindet meisterhaft Gesellschaftskritik mit der psychologischen Analyse der höfischen Gesellschaft im 18. Jahrhundert.

Manchmal gebären die widrigsten und unmöglichsten Umstände, die man schlicht nicht erfinden kann, einen Autoren, dessen Literatur den Menschen den Atem verschlägt. Der unmögliche Fall, der so absurd klingt, dass er nur wahr sein kann. Ständige Geldnöte, Verurteilung zum Tode, mehrjährige Gefängnisstrafe in angeketteter Einzelhaft, Verbot des Aufenthalts in Moskau und in Sankt Petersburg, Spielsucht, um ein paar der Schwierigkeiten zu erwähnen, welche das Schicksal letztendlich zu Voraussetzungen umwandelte, die Dostojewski in die Lage versetzten zu einem Titanen der Welt-Literatur zu werden.
