From the streets of Brooklyn to the underground war zones of Europe, Jacquelyn fights not just monsters — but the darkness within herself.

L'essenza dell'Abruzzo è declinata in questa novella nei suoi peculiari aspetti culturali. Lo sguardo attento e compiaciuto di Valerio Di Stefano ci accompagna attraverso le viuzze di un paesino dove la vita scorre ancora lenta, tra i profumi e i sapori di una terra "forte e gentile" come i suoi abitanti. "Lo schiaffatone" si differenzia completamente dalle precedenti narrazioni, mantenendo però il solito marchio di fabbrica: un'ironia inconfondibile e sottile che, in queste pagine, diventa bonaria ed empatica.

Владимир Маркович Санин (1929—1989) писал о людях, выбравших в жизни трудную и опасную дорогу, — о полярниках, пожарных, путешественниках. И сам он относился к той же беспокойной человеческой породе: совсем юным Санин успел принять участие в Великой Отечественной, после войны закончил экономический факультет МГУ, поработал в газете, стал писателем, не раз побывал за полярным кругом, в Арктике и Антарктике. Сюжеты его произведений зачастую основаны на реальных событиях, развиваются в нетривиальных обстоятельствах и замкнутых сообществах (таких, например, как экипаж судна или лавинная станция).
