Santiago es joven, nacido en el seno de una familia anónima de agricultores, con el mundo como sueño. Un día comienza, en compañía de su rebaño, el viaje deseado, con las pirámides de Egipto como objetivo. Padeciendo adversidades de todo tipo, se interna en el corazon de Africa, superando las dificultades con el convencimiento de seguir siempre hacia delante. Porque la Utopia le sirve, finalmente, para continuar. Y, de esa manera, encontrara el camino, los oasis, el amor, la guerra y los secretos que guardan los alquimistas.

An Inspector Calls, first produced in 1946 when society was undergoing sweeping transformations, has recently enjoyed an enormously successful revival. While holding its audience with the gripping tension of a detective thriller, it is also a philosophical play about social conscience and the crumbling of middle class values. Time and the Conways and I Have Been Here Before belong to Priestley's 'time'plays, in which he explores the idea of precognition and pits fate against free will. The Linden Tree also challenges preconceived ideas of history when Professor Linden comes into conflict with his family about how life should be lived after the war.

La gent que viu al món ens dibuixa un retrat penetrant de la condició humana en el marc estret i ombrívol d'una societat, la nostra, després d'un conflicte bèl·lic: amors trencats, encontres i desenc

Di fronte allo specchio, Sofia non si riconosce piu, e si chiede chi sia quella donna dallo sguardo spento, che sembra aver perso la passione per ogni cosa, persino per la musica. I suoi amici e conoscenti sono convinti che si sia trasferita in Russia per lavoro, in realta Sofia e scappata. È scappata dal matrimonio con Andrea, in cui paradossalmente si sentiva sola; e soprattutto e scappata da Tancredi, l'uomo che aveva messo in crisi tutte le sue certezze per poi deluderla e lasciare solo macerie. Adesso pero Sofia non puo continuare a fuggire, a mettere tra parentesi la sua vita. È tempo di riprendere in mano il proprio destino. E allora torna a casa dal marito, per capire se sia rimasto qualcosa del loro amore, fatto di complicita e sogni. E ricomincia a suonare in pubblico, provando di nuovo il gusto di far volare le dita sulla tastiera del pianoforte. E, una sera, Sofia ritrova anche Tancredi. Non e piu il Tancredi che l'aveva sedotta per capriccio, che non voleva impegnarsi, che non sapeva amare. È un uomo diverso. Un uomo disposto a mettersi in gioco e a costruire una relazione matura e durevole. Ma cosa vuole veramente Sofia? Forse deve ancora scoprirlo, ma di certo questa volta non si fara travolgere dagli eventi e sara lei a scrivere il proprio futuro.

Walt Whitman's verse gave the poetry of America a distinctive national voice. It reflects the unique vitality of the new nation, the vastness of the land and the emergence of a sometimes troubled consciousness, communicated in language and idiom regarded by many at the time as shocking. Whitman's poems are organic and free flowing, fit into no previously defined genre and skilfully combine autobiographical, sociological and religious themes with lyrical sensuality. His verse is a fitting celebration of a new breed of American and includes Song of Myself, Crossing Brooklyn Ferry, the celebratory Passage to India, and his fine elegy for the assassinated President Lincoln, When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom'd.

My love for him felt so total and so annihilating that it was often impossible for me to see him clearly at all. Years ago, Sukie moved in with Nathan because her mother was dead and her father was difficult, and she had nowhere else to go. Now they are on the brink of the inevitable. Sally Rooney is one of the most acclaimed young talents of recent years. With her minute attention to the power dynamics in everyday speech, she builds up sexual tension and throws a deceptively low-key glance at love and death

Aquesta antologia conté quaranta anys de poesia. Hi descobrimun jo molt present, d’una gran lucidesa, un homelliure, intel·ligent i sensible, que s’adreça constantmentals altres—personatges o lectors

Vaig sortir un any amb un home, fins que vaig saber que havia matat la seva dona. Va dir-m'ho ell mateix. Feia deu anys, amb un ganivet, i havia passat per la presó. No vaig poder escoltar-lo més. El vaig acompanyar fins a la porta, li vaig donar la jaqueta i ell va obrir i va marxar. Em vaig ficar al llit vestida. Al matí havia canviat els llençols per ell, la coixinera feia olor de suavitzant i vaig quedar com narcotitzada pel perfum de les flors estampades als llençols, de les flors de la samarreta i els pantalons que no m'havia tret. L'olor de les garlandes a la pantalla del llum de la tauleta, l'olor de les sanefes de les parets, dels rams de flors a les cortines, de les corones de flors al mosaic. Vaig adormir-me en un núvol de pètals, com si la morta fos jo.

En gros, le bilan n’était pas fameux : j’avais quarante-neuf ans, je vivais reclus dans un studio de vingt mètres carrés et passais mes journées à regarder des films en buvant de l’alcool. Bien sûr,

As such, it contains HUGE SPOILERS for the books Mistborn (The Final Empire), The Well of Ascension, and The Hero of Ages. It also contains very minor spoilers for the book The Bands of Mourning.Mistborn: Secret History builds upon the characterization, events, and worldbuilding of the original trilogy. Reading it without that background will be a confusing process at best.In short, this isn''''t the place to start your journey into Mistborn (though if you have read the trilogy - but it has been a while - you should be just fine, so long as you remember the characters and the general plot of the books).Saying anything more here risks revealing too much. Even knowledge of this story''''s existence is, in a way, a spoiler.There''''s always another secret.

«Assez tôt, j'ai compris que je n'allais pas pouvoir faire grand-chose pour changer le monde. Je me suis alors promis de m'installer quelque temps, seul, dans une cabane. Dans les forêts de Sibérie. J'ai acquis une isba de bois, loin de tout, sur les bords du lac Baïkal. La, pendant six mois, a cinq jours de marche du premier village, perdu dans une nature démesurée, j'ai tâché de vivre dans la lenteur et la simplicité. Je crois y être parvenu. Deux chiens, un poêle a bois, une fenêtre ouverte sur un lac suffisent a l'existence. Et si la liberté consistait a posséder le temps ? Et si la richesse revenait a disposer de solitude, d'espace et de silence - toutes choses dont manqueront les générations futures ? Tant qu'il y aura des cabanes au fond des bois, rien ne sera tout a fait perdu.»
