"My ballet is not a mystery," replied Mr. G. "The purpose of it is to present an interesting and beautiful spectacle. Of course, under the visible forms a certain sense is hidden, but I did not aim at demonstrating or emphasizing it. The chief position in this ballet is occupied by certain dances. I will explain this to you shortly".

A former beauty queen, a retired undercover agent, and a successful model, Mey is not the typical damsel in distress. But when her sister drops off the radar and then someone starts following her around, she panics. Following a vague clue that Kalugal might be in New York, Kian sends a team headed by Yamanu to search for him. As Mey and Yamanu’s paths cross, he offers her his help and protection, but will that be all?

In the year 2060, Earth is divided into 10 sectors. Percy Harper lives in the city of Victoria in Sector 10, an old-school homicide detective who doesn't trust AI, though he has an AI partner called Albert. Despite his controversial ways, Percy is grudgingly seen as the best detective in Sector 10.

Percy killed Wang Hu under suspicious circumstances and nearly lost his job, and Baijiu Club still has him in their radar and often follows him.

E' per noi un grande piacere presentare agli studiosi ed ai ricercatori delle Dottrine Segrete questo lavoro basato sugli insegnamenti ermetici, antichi quanto il mondo. E' stato scritto così poco su quest'argomento, malgrado gli innumerevoli riferimenti a detti insegnamenti nelle molte opere sull'occultismo, che non pochi dei più seri investigatori delle Arcane Verità faranno senza dubbio buona accoglienza al presente volume.

Un audiolibro per chi ama i libri e la cultura classica, un divertissement colto e scritto con garbata ironia dai creatori di una delle più folte community di tema letterario e culturale di Facebook, la pagina Se i social network fossero sempre esistiti, seguita da oltre un milione di utenti. Con piglio ironico e irriverente - ma anche con scrupoloso spirito di divulgazione - questo bignami letterario racconta 50 tra i più bei libri di ogni tempo e si diverte a contaminare classico e pop, classico e moderno.

In questo nuovo volume, gli autori della pagina Facebook "Se i social network fossero sempre esistiti" raccontano venti storie di disagio, facendo luce sulle biografi e di altrettanti personaggi che hanno spaccato il mondo nonostante il mondo si sia accanito su di loro come gli invitati sul buffet di un matrimonio.

E questa energia dell'amore siamo noi a sceglierla e usarla, ogni giorno, nella nostra vita. I due scritti "L'ottimismo dell'amore" e "Il potere dell'amore" sono introdotti da una ricca prefazione dell'editore che ne spiega il valore, approfondendo il tema.

Pero hay que tener en cuenta que de quien el autor se ríe es, ante todo, de sí mismo.
