El nuevo libro de Darío Sztajnszrajber. ¿Qué significa que el único amor verdadero sea el amor imposible? ¿Es el amor lo que suponemos que es? O antes que eso, ¿es lo imposible aquello definido como lo inalcanzable, lo inconsumable, lo inenarrable? ¿Y si fueran las preguntas lo que hay que cambiar porque es en la imposibilidad del encuentro amoroso donde radica su verdad? Este libro es una propuesta de deconstrucción radical sobre uno de los eventos más radicales de nuestra existencia.

Once upon a time, there was a tower on a hill, beyond the dark trees, somewhere north. An octagonal tower on two levels: glass upstairs and stone below, beneath a steep slate roof – a folly, it was said. According to locals, a young woman named Annie who fell ill was confined to the tower by her father for three years and died there, alone. Fascinated by Annie's story, Thea Lenarduzzi attempts to piece the past together in a formidable act of imagination, which, tugging at the strings of the how, why and who of stories, begins to unravel the very idea of storytelling itself.

Was haben wir denn hier für ein Buch? Es sollte eigentlich "Zum Scheißen reicht's" heißen, aber so ein Titel führt zu sehr in die Irre. Gereon Klug beschäftigt sich ja richtig mit den Menschen und schreibt jeden Tag Reisewarnungen, Glückskekszettelpoeme, Kriegserklärungen und Latrinenpredigten. Also daraus ein Buch machen? Seine Psychiaterin riet ab.

When “Renaissance runner” (New York Times) Alexi Pappas - Olympic athlete, actress, filmmaker, and writer - was four years old, her mother died by suicide, drastically altering the course of Pappas’s life and setting her on a search for female role models. When her father signed his bereaved daughter up for sports teams as a way to keep her busy, female athletes became the first women Pappas looked up to, and her Olympic dream was born. At the same time, Pappas had big creative dreams, too: She wanted to make movies, write, and act.

Questo brevissimo audiolibro raccoglie le letture di due saggi famosissimi di Antonio Gramsci, "Odio gli indifferenti" e "Per la libertà della scuola e per la libertà di rimanere asini". La loro fama non si deve soltanto all'acuta sottigliezza con cui l'Autore critica la scocietà dell'epoca, si scaglia contro l'indifferenza, vera piaga del suo tempo, e contro il sistema scolastico fino a rivendicare il diritto di rimanere asini, ma anche e soprattutto per una straordinaria attualità.

¿Qué es la realidad? ¿Cómo deberíamos vivir? Éstos son los interrogantes que dieron origen a la filosofía y que inquietaban a Sócrates, quien pasó sus días desconcertando a la gente en las plazas y mercados atenienses con sus extrañas preguntas que hacían ver a las personas lo poco que realmente entendían. En cuarenta breves capítulos, Nigel Warburton realiza un apasionante recorrido cronológico por la historia de la filosofía occidental, presentándonos a los grandes pensadores y explorando sus ideas sobre el mundo y cómo vivir mejor en él.

En este segundo tomo de Cuchara y memoria, que abarca de la langosta al zapato, el autor continúa hurgando en su historia personal y en la memoria colectiva para revivir aquellas comidas que le han provocado asombro, nostalgia, risas y, también, más de una decepción memorable. Aquí no hay reglas ni jueces: cada quien tiene su forma de «agarrar el taco». Y lo importante, insiste, no es solo recordar, sino divertirse en el camino. Este libro es una invitación a leer con hambre y a compartir el viaje de un autor que escribe con honestidad, humor y un enorme amor por la comida.

Flower is a book of realistic admissions, likes, dislikes, memories and no-brainer observations, treating personal truth as unavailable – something that must be made up and convincing. Taking cues from confessional literature, his daughter’s improvised games, poor internet writing and shitty AI, Ed Atkins, in his first work of non-fiction, equivocates between inanity and divinity, ease and pain, sentimentality and sterility.

The crônica, a literary genre peculiar to Brazilian newspapers, allows writers, or even soccer stars, to address a wide readership on any theme they like. Chatty, mystical, intimate, flirtatious, and revelatory, Clarice Lispector’s pieces for the Saturday edition of Rio’s leading paper, the Jornal do Brasil, from 1967 to 1973, take the forms of memories, essays, aphorisms, and serialized stories. Endlessly delightful, her insights make one sit up and think, whether about children or social ills or pets or society women or the business of writing or love.
