From a political and military point of view, the Partisan Diary provides firsthand knowledge of how the partisans in Piedmont fought, what obstacles they encountered, and who joined the struggle against the Nazis and the Fascists. The mountainous terrain and long winters of the Alpine regions (the site of many of their battles) and the ever-present threat of reprisals by German occupiers and their fascist partners exacerbated problems of organization among the various partisan groups.

The intriguing thing about our dreams is we're always the "Star". Comedy, romance, murder mystery, drama, documentary of a heroine - there we are in the middle of everything. When we're awake we also star in our dreams. Dream big and work toward your goals and you'll write a story with your life that will cause satisfaction beyond what would occur if you were a television or screen celebrity who plays roles about fictional people's lives. Whether the story is a tragedy or a cherished classic depends on who we want to become and if we pursue our dreams.

The words had chilled Cole when he'd heard the young Abigail utter them, her teeth chattering as she recovered from exposure to below-freezing temperatures. With her mangled bicycle in the back of his truck, Cole had taken on more than he had ever dreamed when he'd stopped to help the lost and lonely 19-year-old. Her teddy bear peeking out from her backpack paired with the thickly padded diaper she wore beneath her short skirt told him everything he needed to know to make his heart long to make her his.

In a future of near-instantaneous global travel, of abundant provision for the needs of all, a future in which no one living can remember an actual war, a long era of stability threatens to come to an abrupt end. For known only to a few, the leaders of the great Hives, nations without fixed location, have long conspired to keep the world stable, at the cost of just a little blood. A few secret murders, mathematically planned. So that no faction can ever dominate, and the balance holds. And yet the balance is beginning to give way.

The author of My Name Is Maria Isabel offers an inspiring look at her childhood in Cuba in this collection that includes "Where the Flame Trees Bloom", "Under the Royal Palms", five new stories, and more.

For more than half a century, Ada Louise Huxtable's keen eye and vivid writing have reinforced to readers how important architecture is and why it continues to be both controversial and fascinating - making her one of the best-known critics in the world. On Architecture collects the best of Huxtable's writing from the New York Times, New York Review of Books, Wall Street Journal, and her various books. In these selections, Huxtable examines the 20th century's most important architectural masters and projects.

When caught in a compromising position with her husband's brother, the beautiful, strong, and willful Hanna learns that her husband's family has an unusual tradition. Given an ultimatum, she must choose between allowing her marriage to end or agreeing to a life that includes domestic discipline - starting immediately. It is a decision that has her bottom thoroughly heated with a belt while bent naked over her husband's knee, and the object of her desires watches her receive the first punishment of her life.

Inspired by her wildly popular New York Times essay "The Wedding Toast I'll Never Give", Ada Calhoun provides a funny (but not flip), smart (but not smug) take on the institution of marriage. Weaving intimate moments from her own married life with frank insight from experts, clergy, and friends, she upends expectations of total marital bliss to present a realistic - but ultimately optimistic - portrait of what marriage is really like.

Arthur Drams works for a secret government security agency, but all he really does is spend his days in a cubical. After getting another "lateral promotion", it's suggested that Arthur try to "make friends" and "get noticed" in order to move up the ladder. It's like high school all over again: His attempts to be friendly come across as awkward and creepy, and no one wants to sit at the same table with him at lunch. In a last-ditch attempt to be seen as friendly and outgoing, he decides to make friends with The Alien, aka Agent Martin Grove.

"Sorelle" (raccolta di racconti pubblicata nel 1929) è l'affresco di un universo femminile d'altri tempi, e le "Sorelle" lo sono per scelta, per appartenenza, per sorellanza di genere e non per parentela (la stessa Ada Negri amava definirsi "sorella" di Anna Kuliscioff). "Sorelle" è una galleria di ritratti femminili: dalla matriarca contadina che gestisce l'azienda famigliare, all'anonima segretaria d'ufficio che preferisce evadere dalla monotonia quotidiana immergendosi nei film, dall'anziana sarta, felice nel suo ospizio, alla custode di condominio che sgobba da mane a sera.

Las cámaras de seguridad de un banco captan cómo un atracador dispara a bocajarro a la cajera tras un extraño intercambio de palabras. El detective Harry Hole se hará cargo de la investigación, con la ayuda de Beate Lonn, una de las investigadoras más desconcertantes del cuerpo de policía, capaz de identificar rasgos faciales mucho más rápido que cualquier programa informático, pero incapaz de moverse en sociedad. Todas las pesquisas remiten a Raskol Baxhet, un legendario atracador. Sin embargo, es imposible que sea el culpable porque cumple condena en prisión.

Una ola de calor azota Oslo. La sangre que escapa del cadáver de una mujer que ha sido asesinada en su apartamento llama la atención de las autoridades. Al examinar el cuerpo, que tiene un dedo amputado, se encuentra un pequeño diamante rojo en forma de estrella de cinco puntas.

Zwariowana i pełna ciepła komedia kryminalna. Ada nieoczekiwanie staje się właścicielką starego szkockiego dworu. To nie podupadający dom, tylko przepięknie usytuowana posiadłość w doskonałym stanie, której jednak z jakichś powodów nikt z klanu nie chce. Ada podejrzewa, że Leśna Sadyba, spontanicznie przemianowana przez rodzinę na Straszny Dworek, skrywa jakąś mroczną tajemnicę. Tylko czy jest sposób, aby w krótkim czasie poznać sekrety starego domostwa? Jest. Należy zaprosić tam na wakacje wszystkie przyjaciółki!

Ada mogłaby śmiało nazwać siebie szczęściarą. Z kilku powodów. Pierwszy: świeżo poślubiony angielski małżonek zwany Rośkiem, zakochany w niej na zabój. Powód drugi: para domowych małolatów i rudy terierek Spajkuś, bez których nie wyobraża sobie życia. I wreszcie powód trzeci: Dziewuchy - czyli barwne grono najbliższych jej kobiet. Chociaż na co dzień przyjaciółki mieszkają w czterech różnych krajach, to kontaktują się regularnie, wykorzystując wszystkie zdobycze technologiczne.

Pubblicato nel 1920, questo primo romanzo di Ada Negri è la storia della sua vita fino all'età matura, e si conclude con la profonda scoperta dell'altra, una sé più profonda, quella che, senza mai abbandonarla, darà voce alle sue intuizioni, ai suoi contatti con l'Eterno.

Queste prose furono pubblicate postume, nel 1945. L'avvicinamento alla morte dell'autrice è sempre più sereno e fiducioso, e si completa il percorso iniziato dopo i cinquant'anni, in cui, ad un avvicinamento sempre maggiore a Dio, si unisce la consapevolezza di sapere come la sua missione di scrittrice può servire gli altri, e non più se stessa. Di notevole interesse è l'ultima novella, la vita di Santa Caterina da Siena.

Questa ultima raccolta di poesie fu pubblicata postuma. La scrittrice attende serenamente la morte nella sua fede ritrovata.

Ultimo libro di prose ad essere pubblicato in vita, nel 1939. Una Ada Negri completamente riconciliata con la fede, che ci accompagna nella sua vita di tutti i giorni, fatta di incontri, ricordi, istantanee di chiese e di città. Un almanacco prezioso da sfogliare senza fretta, prezioso come l'erba sul sagrato della chiesa di Sant'Anna ad Asolo.
