सोचती हूँ- खुद के तखैयुल से, अपने देश से, अपने देश के लोगों से, और तमाम दुनिया के लोगों से- यानी खुदा की तखलीफ से, मेरी मुहब्बत का गुनाह सचमुच बहुत बड़ा है, बहुत संगीन....

Joy Harjo, the first Native American to serve as US poet laureate, invites us to travel along the heartaches, losses, and humble realizations of her "poet-warrior" road. A musical, kaleidoscopic, and wise follow-up to Crazy Brave, Poet Warrior reveals how Harjo came to write poetry of compassion and healing, poetry with the power to unearth the truth and demand justice.

Due interventi e una conversazione libera e amichevole con Susanna Tamaro su di sé, sul rapporto con la scrittura e sui suoi libri, fanno di "Verso casa" un prezioso piccolo compendio che avvicina i lettori ad un'autrice riservata eppure capace di parlare il linguaggio di tutti e soprattutto di illuminare aspetti spesso oscuri nella vita di ciascuno attraverso il semplice ma impegnativo esercizio del conoscere se stessi. Con una nuova introduzione dell'autrice.

This funny, rich, raunchy autobiography re-creates the adventures of a very young soldier in the US Army at the height of the Depression. Charles Willeford was 16 in 1935 when he signed up and was sent to the Philippines. And the Philippines of those days was like a place out of another century. Willeford’s job was to fuel aircraft whose pilots treated him and his buddies almost like slaves. At night, however, he was a lord, fully exploring a great, timeless, and sensual city with a multitude of women available - even on a private’s pay.

I Was Looking for a Street tells the story of the author's childhood and adolescence as an orphan, as he moves from railroad yards to hobo tent cities, to soup kitchens and deserts around Los Angeles and across the United States. The ensuing tale is at once a picaresque adventure through Depression-era America and a portrait of the writer as a young man of seemingly little promise but great spirit.

Bastard Out of Carolina, nominated for the 1992 National Book Award for fiction, introduced Dorothy Allison as one of the most passionate and gifted writers of her generation.

Una poeta, non una poetessa. Rock, ribelle, sopra le righe, contro ogni forma di convenzione e d'ipocrisia. Due matrimoni, quattro figlie, e una guerra mondiale, ricoveri in manicomio, telefonate notturne, amori celebri e indimenticabili furori, cicche di sigaretta, scrittura, solitudini. Alda Merini è impossibile da contenere entro i bordi di una pagina perché i suoi versi e la sua storia esondano, invadono la vita. Questa è una sua storia, narrata per le strade di Milano, tra le pareti della sua casa, nelle pieghe di decenni in cui le donne cambiavano, e con loro l'Italia.

This intoxicating book by the author of The Revolution of Little Girls combines autobiography, reporting, and the dressed-up lies we call fiction. An underground classic since its initial publication, it is the wildly funny personal testament of Blanche McCrary Boyd, '60s radical and born-again Southerner, a lesbian with an un-PC passion for skydiving and stock-car racing, a graduate of Esalen and kundalini yoga who now takes her altered states "raw, like oysters".

The story of F. Scott Fitzgerald's creation of Jay Gatsby - war hero and Oxford man - at the beginning of the Jazz Age, when the City of Dreaming Spires attracted an astounding array of intellectuals, including the Inklings, W. B. Yeats, and T. S. Eliot.

Ernest Hemingway, the Nobel Prize-winning author, was known as much for his prose as for his travels to exotic locales; his gusto and charm created excitement wherever he went. In Ernest's Way, we follow Cristen around the globe to the places he lived, wrote, fought, drank, fished, ran with the bulls, and held court with T.S. Elliot, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Pablo Picasso, Gertrude Stein and many other influential writers, artists, and intellectuals of the 20th century.

Una figlia appassionata, un padre che è stato uno degli scrittori più importanti del Novecento, una famiglia i cui ricordi emergono nitidi come personaggi di un romanzo. Giorgio Bassani abita il lessico famigliare che la figlia Paola racconta per la prima volta in questo libro, con la stessa forza poetica e umana che ha accompagnato la sua vita e la vasta produzione letteraria. Poeta, narratore, insegnante, giornalista, sportivo, politico, sceneggiatore, e accanto e soprattutto padre, marito e uomo passionale, innamorato della bellezza in tutte le sue forme.

Joyce Maynard was 18 years old when her 1972 New York Times Magazine cover story catapulted her to national prominence. Published one year later, Looking Back is her remarkable follow-up—part memoir, part cultural history, and part social critique. She wrote about diving under her desk for air-raid practice during the Cuban Missile Crisis, the Beatles’ first appearance on The Ed Sullivan Show, and catching the first glimpse (on the cover of Life magazine) of a human fetus in utero.

Michael Reynolds recreates the milieu that forged one of America's greatest and most influential writers. He reveals the fraught foundations of Hemingway's persona: his father's self-destructive battle with depression and his mother's fierce independence and spiritualism. He brings Hemingway through World War I, where he was frustrated by being too far away from the action and glory, despite his being wounded and nursed to health by Agnes Von Kurowsky - the older woman with whom he fell terribly in love.

The 1920s in Paris are the pivotal years in Hemingway's apprenticeship as a writer, whether sitting in cafes or at the feet of Gertrude Stein. These are the heady times of the Nick Adams short stories, Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby, and the writing of The Sun Also Rises. These are also the years of Hemingway's first marriage to Hadley Richardson, the birth of his first son, and his discovery of the bullfights at Pamplona.
