Una nuova carrellata di irresistibili avventure di don Camillo e Peppone, la coppia di amici/nemici più famosi della narrativa italiana, immortalati al cinema da Fernandel e Gino Cervi. Da una parte c'è don Camillo, un prete di un paesino emiliano. Alto e ben piazzato, appassionato di caccia, don Camillo tende a risolvere pragmaticamente e fisicamente questioni ingarbugliate. Dall’altra c’è Peppone, il sindaco comunista del paese, amico d’infanzia di don Camillo e compagno di scorribande giovanili ma ideologicamente l'opposto di don Camillo.

Una serie di nuove imperdibili avventure per Peppone e don Camillo, la coppia di amici-nemici più famosi della letteratura italiana, immortalati al cinema da Gino Cervi e Fernandel. Se da una parte il sindaco comunista deve far fronte alle malelingue che lo accusano di essersi venduto al consumismo per aver aperto un negozio di elettrodomestici, dall'altra don Camillo se la dovrà vedere con le direttive provenienti direttamente dal vescovato di Roma.

To listen to The Little World of Don Camillo is to travel to the valley of the River Po, Italy's widest and most fertile plain, with its unique atmosphere, culture, and natural history. And to do so in the incomparable company of a cast of fictional characters who testify to the exquisite humor and humanity of their creator. Here, eternal forces grapple with the absurd drama of everyday life, and hilarious and unearthly things can happen.

Publisher's summary
La prima folgorante apparizione letteraria di don Camillo e Peppone, la coppia di amici/nemici più famosi della narrativa italiana, immortalati al cinema da Fernandel e Gino Cervi. Da una parte c'è don Camillo, un prete di un paesino emiliano. Alto e ben piazzato, appassionato di caccia, don Camillo tende a risolvere pragmaticamente e fisicamente questioni ingarbugliate. Dall’altra c’è Peppone, il sindaco comunista del paese, amico d’infanzia di don Camillo e compagno di scorribande giovanili ma ideologicamente l'opposto di don Camillo.
Questa raccolta di racconti immerge nelle rocambolesche interazioni tra i due, filosoficamente distanti eppure così mondanamente vicini.
Giovannino Guareschi (1908-1968) è stato uno scrittore e giornalista italiano, noto principalmente per essere l’ideatore di don Camillo e Peppone, la coppia di amici/nemici più famosi della narrativa italiana. Raggiunta la fama nazionale grazie alle avventure dei due personaggi, pubblicate a puntate sulla rivista "Candido" e in seguito raccolte in libri e trasformate in film di successo, Guareschi rimane uno degli autori italiani più venduti di sempre.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 604
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

In the heart of the South Pacific lies Point Nemo, the most desolate and remote place on Earth. At its core is a dead zone, devoid of life, where government agencies crash their obsolete satellites and space stations, confident they won't harm a soul. When the International Space Station suffers a catastrophic failure and plummets through the atmosphere, it's here that Mission Specialist Julie Rohr, an astrobiologist studying living space dust called xylem, finds herself marooned. Julie's only hope for rescue lies in the hands of her estranged father, Dr. Finn Maddern, a renowned mycologist.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

When the call came it seemed like the answer to my prayers. My career as a voice actor had been over for months and me and my little girl Scarlet were living back at my mum’s place. I felt like a failure professionally—and with Scarlet having problems at school, as a parent as well. So, when I was asked to narrate a new book by disappeared novelist Philippa Roberts I jumped at the chance, even if it meant leaving Scarlet with my ex, Hugo, for a few weeks. Hugo, with his perfect new home and his perfect new girlfriend Saskia. But this isn’t a dream come true. It’s a nightmare.
