Rossella Casini e una giovane studentessa di Psicologia dellUniversita di Firenze, figlia unica cresciuta in una famiglia semplice e rispettabile. La madre, una piccola commerciante, e il padre, ormai in pensione, le hanno garantito una vita tranquilla fatta di studio ed esperienze giovanili. Tutto cambia nel novembre del 1977 quando Rossella conosce Francesco Frisina, un ragazzo calabrese originario della Piana di Gioia Tauro. Francesco e un giovane affascinante, deciso e sincero, e tra i due nasce subito una forte intesa. Lestate successiva Rossella decide di seguirlo a Palmi, in Calabria, per conoscere la sua famiglia. Laccoglienza dei Frisina sembra calorosa, ma dietro quellapparente normalita si nasconde una realta ben diversa: i Frisina sono legati alla potente cosca dei Gallico, in guerra aperta con i Condello. Nonostante il pericolo crescente, Rossella decide di restare accanto a Francesco, convinta, addirittura, che il loro amore possa mettere fine al ciclo di violenza. La sua speranza si trasforma pero in una tragica illusione: il 22 febbraio 1981 Rossella sparisce nel nulla dopo aver annunciato telefonicamente al padre lintenzione di tornare a casa. Da quel momento, nessuno la rivedra mai piu.

WINNER OF WATERSTONES BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 SHORTLISTED FOR THE BRITISH BOOK AWARDS DEBUT NOVEL OF THE YEAR 2025 THE NUMBER 1 SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER A BBC BETWEEN THE COVERS BOOK CLUB PICK A full-fat, Michelin-starred treat THE SUNDAY TIMES ''I have been glued to Asako Yuzuki''s new novel Butter NIGEL SLATER The cult Japanese bestseller about a female gourmet cook and serial killer and the journalist intent on cracking her case, inspired by a true story, and translated by Polly Barton. There are two things that I can simply not tolerate: feminists and margarine. Gourmet cook Manako Kajii sits in Tokyo Detention Centre convicted of the serial murders of lonely businessmen, who she is said to have seduced with her delicious home cooking. The case has captured the nations imagination but Kajii refuses to speak with the press, entertaining no visitors. That is, until journalist Rika Machida writes a letter asking for her recipe for beef stew and Kajii cant resist writing back. Rika, the only woman in her news office, works late each night, rarely cooking more than ramen. As the visits unfold between her and the steely Kajii, they are closer to a masterclass in food than journalistic research. Rika hopes this gastronomic exchange will help her soften Kajii but it seems that she might be the one changing. With each meal she eats, something is awakening in her body, might she and Kaji have more in common than she once thought? Inspired by the real case of the convicted con woman and serial killer, "The Konkatsu Killer", Asako Yuzukis Butter is a vivid, unsettling exploration of misogyny, obsession, romance and the transgressive pleasures of food in Japan.

The Thought Police, Doublethink, Newspeak, Big Brother 1984 itself: these terms and concepts have moved from the world of fiction into our everyday lives. They are central to our thinking about freedom and its suppression; yet they were newly created by George Orwell in 1949 as he conjured his dystopian vision of a world where totalitarian power is absolute. In this novel, continuously popular since its first publication, readers can explore the dark and extraordinary world he brought so fully to life. The principal characters who lead us through that world are ordinary human beings like ourselves: Winston Smith and Julia, whose falling in love is also an act of rebellion against the Party. Opposing them are the massed powers of the state, which watches its citizens on all sides through technology now only too familiar to us. No-one is free from surveillance; the past is constantly altered, so that there is no truth except the most recent version; and Big Brother, both loved and feared, controls all. Even the simple act of keeping a diary as Winston does is punishable by death. In Winstons battle to keep his freedom of thought, he has a powerful adversary in OBrien, who uses fear and pain to enter his very thought processes. Does 2+2 = 4? Or is it 5? We find out in Room 101. Nineteen Eighty-Four was Orwells last novel; but the world he created is always with us, as successive generations of readers find within it a mirror for their own times and a warning for the future.
