There can be no last word on Sanjay Dutt. Ever. Even as he walks a free man after more than three decades of prison terms and controversies, Dutt remains a classic case study in all that defines the ‘star’ system in Bollywood - an industry known for its deep-rooted sense of entitlement. However, there is one question that dominates: who is the real Sanjay Dutt?

A Pure Solar World: Sun Ra and the Birth of Afrofuturism offers a spirited introduction to the life and work of this legendary but underappreciated musician, composer, and poet. Paul Youngquist explores and assesses Sun Ra’s wide-ranging creative output - music, public preaching, graphic design, film and stage performance, and poetry - and connects his diverse undertakings to the culture and politics of his times, including the space race, the rise of technocracy, the civil rights movement, and even space-age bachelor-pad music.

"Che Diva sei? È la domanda per 'indossare' la propria maschera, e in ogni sembianza, sotto ogni copertura, ridisegnare i generi o fluttuarvi delicatamente da un lato all'altro. Dive e Divine insegnano a smantellare i 'tipi' di donne (e di uomini), divise in categorie, classificate a seconda del fascino e della bellezza, ma come scrive Francis Scott Fitzgerald: 'Lui voleva fare di me una Dea, invece io voglio essere Mickey Mouse'."

David Morrell is best known for his acclaimed thrillers, including The Brotherhood of the Rose, Creepers, Murder as a Fine Art, and his debut novel, First Blood, in which Rambo first appeared. But Morrell is also a master of nonfiction. Twenty of his essays about iconic writers, actors, and singers are collected in Stars in My Eyes: My Love Affair with Books, Movies, and Music.

Ayn Rand’s complicated notoriety as popular writer, leader of a political and philosophical cult, reviled intellectual, and ostentatious public figure endured beyond her death in 1982. In the 21st century, she has been resurrected as a serious reference point for mainstream figures, especially those on the political right, from Paul Ryan to Donald Trump. Mean Girl follows Rand’s trail through the 20th century from the Russian Revolution to the Cold War and traces her posthumous appeal and the influence of her novels via her cruel, surly, sexy heroes.

Alfredo Bini è l'uomo che ha reso possibile il cinema di Pier Paolo Pasolini. Questa autobiografia è la storia di uno dei più grandi produttori cinematografici italiani e il romanzo di una vita vissuta a perdifiato, dall'infanzia sulle colline toscane alla guerra in Grecia e Albania, dalle luci della ribalta dei festival a un oblio inspiegabile e amaro. È un album fotografico in cui si incontrano i volti di Claudia Cardinale e Anna Magnani, di Gina Lollobrigida e Marcello Mastroianni, di Totò e Federico Fellini.

This hilarious, whip-smart collection of essays from a top writer and producer of Six Feet Under crisscrosses from the highly personal (conflating her own loss of virginity and the Kobe Bryant accusations), to the political (what she has in common with Monica and Chandra), to the outrageously Los Angelean (why women wear huge diamonds and what they must do to get them). Tiny Ladies in Shiny Pants is a genre-defying combination of personal essay and memoir, or a hilarious, unruly and unapologetic evaluation of society, religion, sex, love, and - best of all - Jill Soloway.

In John Prine, Eddie Huffman traces the long arc of Prine’s musical career, beginning with his early, seemingly effortless successes, which led paradoxically not to stardom but to a rich and varied career writing songs that other people have made famous. He recounts the stories, many of them humorous, behind Prine’s best-known songs and discusses all of Prine’s albums as he explores the brilliant records and the ill-advised side trips, the underappreciated gems and the hard-earned comebacks that led Prine to found his own successful record label, Oh Boy Records.

Nancy K. Miller describes her friendships with three well-known scholars and literary critics: Carolyn Heilbrun, Diane Middlebrook, and Naomi Schor. Their relationships were simultaneously intimate and professional, emotional and intellectual, animated by the ferment of the women’s movement. Friendships like these sustained the generation of women whose entrance into male-dominated professions is still reshaping American society. The stories of their intertwined lives and books embody feminism’s belief in the political importance of personal experience.

Madhubala - the very name conjures up vivid images of a love goddess possessing bewitching beauty, dazzling radiance, subtle sensuality and, above all, a tantalizing screen presence. Her ‘reel life’ histrionic performances held (and continue to hold) audiences/viewers entranced. Her talent was phenomenal, and she could literally glide through a movie, whatever be the role. She could convey an impressive array of emotions with her eloquent eyes and facial expressions without resorting to melodramatic contortions.

A passionate advocate for preserving wilderness and fighting the bureaucratic and business forces that would destroy it, Edward Abbey (1927-1989) wrote fierce, polemical books such as Desert Solitaire and The Monkey Wrench Gang that continue to inspire environmental activists.

Nel novembre 1838 da una cella della certosa abbandonata di Valldemossa, fra le montagne che circondano Palma di Maiorca, si diffondono le note di un "pianino". Non sono note qualsiasi: sono quelle che completeranno i ventiquattro "Preludi" di Frédéric Chopin, opera cardine del Romanticismo. Non è stato possibile trovare uno strumento migliore sull'isola, ma quel piccolo pianoforte, costruito da un artigiano locale, fatto di legno dolce, ferro, rame, feltro e avorio, avrà una grande vita.

Un giro del disco durava più di un secondo: dal boccaporto del grammofono usciva la melodia, il canto. Restavo a guardare la puntina capace di leggere il solco e pure la polvere. C'entrava l'elettricità e la finestra chiusa per tenere fuori l'ammuina. E dentro la stanza avveniva lo spazio e il silenzio per farla suonare. Le canzoni come gli odori, e più della vista, affilano i ricordi.

Il pianista Ramin Bahrami trova un modo originale e moderno di far rivivere Mozart, Beethoven e Bach come nostri contemporanei. In queste pagine, il genio di Mozart è il protagonista e Bahrami si chiede, quasi a sfidarlo: cosa direbbe Mozart, questo maestro ribelle e giovanile, della cultura del ventunesimo secolo, dove sembra che la bellezza, pura e semplice, sia qualcosa da bandire? Come concilierebbe la sua arte con il tempo moderno? Saprebbe ancora comunciare con noi attraverso la musica?

Beethoven è il più emblematico, il più citato, il più leggendario musicista della storia. Qui rivive, nella biografia non convenzionale scritta dal pianista Ramin Bahrami, con la sua genialità intatta e con tutta la sua carica eversiva. Messo di fronte, virtualmente, a quanto avviene nel mondo contemporaneo - scuole, università, teatri chiusi, musicisti retribuiti in maniera scandalosa, format televisivi destinati a far perdere ai giovani ogni spirito di lotta costruttiva - la biografia di questo grande artista prova a dialogare tra passato e presente con i giovani a cui si rivolge.

Janis Ian was catapulted into the spotlight in 1966 at the age of 15, when her soul-wrenching song "Society's Child" became a hit. But this was only the beginning of a long and illustrious career.
