Story0
Sotto le luci miserabili e iperboliche di Hollywood, Arturo Bandini sogna il successo di scrittore mentre con la mano sinistra scrive pessime sceneggiature che non vedranno mai la luce. Potrebbe essere la premessa di una tragedia, ma come sempre, in bocca a Bandini, tutte le tragedie finiscono in commedia. Anche in quest'ultimo capolavoro colpisce l'inconfondibile voce fantiana, quell'impasto di humour, candore e cattiveria che ne ha fatto uno degli scrittori piú amati dei nostri anni.

Immigrato, attaccabrighe, ribelle, megalomane, sprezzante e perennemente in lite con tutti: Arturo Gabriel Bandini, l'eroe di Chiedi alla polvere, ossessionato dall'idea di scrivere un libro e animato dalla rabbia che si prova a diciott'anni, quando facciamo una vita che non ci piace e sogniamo le rivoluzioni che cambieranno il mondo. Un romanzo sfrontato, un inno alla spregiudicatezza amatissimo dai piú giovani, che vedono in John Fante il prototipo di tutti gli sbandati-sognatori che popolano la letteratura.

Arturo ha quattordici anni, abita in America, in uno sperduto paesino sulle montagne, possiede una slitta. Per il resto avrebbe preferito chiamarsi John, e di cognome, invece che Bandini, Jones. La madre e il padre sono italiani immigrati, ma lui avrebbe preferito essere americano. Poi c'è nonna Toscana, che considera il genero Svevo, padre di Arturo, un fallito, e la figlia Maria una povera pazza perché l'ha sposato.

Al centro della vicenda è il percorso di Bandini verso la realizzazione delle sue ambizioni artistiche e la sua educazione sentimentale dopo l'incontro con la bella e strana Camilla Lopez. L'ironia sarcastica e irriverente, la comicità di Arturo Bandini si uniscono alla sua natura di sognatore sbandato, che ne fa il prototipo di tutti i sognatori sbandati che hanno popolato la letteratura dopo di lui.

Story0
È la storia, allegra e toccante, di un bambino e del suo asinello coraggioso. E di una formidabile alleanza che permetterà di ricondurre al suo recinto un meraviglioso toro da combattimento e redimere un padre alla deriva. Ambientata in un Messico da favola, bonario e festevole, trafelato e pittoresco e, in fondo, anche un po' "italiano", in origine avrebbe dovuto servire da base per un episodio di It's All True, il grande progetto cinematografico interrotto di Orson Welles, e fu scritta da Fante in collaborazione con lo sceneggiatore Rudolph Borchert.

Story320
Louis-Ferdinand Celine's revulsion and anger at what he considered the idiocy and hypocrisy of society explodes from nearly every minute of this novel. Filled with slang and obscenities and written in raw, colloquial language, Journey to the End of the Night is a literary symphony of violence, cruelty, and obscene nihilism. This book shocked most critics when it was first published in France in 1932, but quickly became a success with the public in Europe, and later in America.

In the void that remains stands his widow, Jane, surrounded by questions destined to go unanswered...unless she does what all the grief, fear, confusion, and fury inside of her demand: find the truth, no matter what.

Growing up in London and Melbourne, music was always part of John Farnham's world. But the young John never dreamed of what was to come. Pop stardom in the 1960s. The release of Whispering Jack, the critically acclaimed and highest-selling Australian album of all time. A decades-long touring career. Twenty-one ARIA awards. Australian of the Year. The list of accolades and achievements is long - so, at first glance, the John Farnham story is one filled with remarkable highs.

Un énorme chien à tête d'ours, obsédé et très mal élevé, débarque un soir dans la vie d'Henry J. Molise, auteur quinquagénaire raté et désabusé qui n'a qu'une envie : tout plaquer et s'envoler loin de sa famille qui le rend fou. Malgré l'affection d'Henry pour la bête, sa femme Harriet et ses quatre enfants restent méfiants à l'égard de ce canidé indomptable. Dans la coquette banlieue californienne de Point Dume, au bord du Pacifique, ce monstre attachant s'apprête à semer un innommable chaos. Un joyau d'humour loufoque et de provocation ravageuse.

Published in rapid succession in the middle 1930s, these two books shocked European literature and world consciousness. Nominally fiction but more rightly called "creative confessions," they told of the author's childhood in excoriating Paris slums, of service in the mud wastes of World War I and African jungles. Mixing unmitigated despair with Gargantuan comedy, they also created a new style, in which invective and obscenity were laced with phrases of unforgettable poetry. Celine's influence revolutionized the contemporary approach to fiction.

When first published in 1759, Candide became an instant best seller and is now regarded as one of the key texts of the Enlightenment. Voltaire’s preoccupations with evil and with various kinds of human folly and intolerance found a perfect vehicle in this philosophical tale. A master storyteller, he combined often wildly entertaining action with profoundly serious sense, parodying the traditional chivalric and oriental tales with which his public was more familiar.

Published in rapid succession in the middle 1930s, these two books shocked European literature and world consciousness. Nominally fiction but more rightly called "creative confessions," they told of the author's childhood in excoriating Paris slums, of service in the mud wastes of World War I and African jungles. Mixing unmitigated despair with Gargantuan comedy, they also created a new style, in which invective and obscenity were laced with phrases of unforgettable poetry. Celine's influence revolutionized the contemporary approach to fiction.

When first published in 1759, Candide became an instant best seller and is now regarded as one of the key texts of the Enlightenment. Voltaire’s preoccupations with evil and with various kinds of human folly and intolerance found a perfect vehicle in this philosophical tale. A master storyteller, he combined often wildly entertaining action with profoundly serious sense, parodying the traditional chivalric and oriental tales with which his public was more familiar.

Henderson's awesome feats of strength and his unbridled passion for life win him the admiration of the tribe - but it is his gift for making rain that turns him from mere hero into messiah. A hilarious, often ribald story, Henderson the Rain King is also a profound look at the forces that drive a man through life.

Since its publication in 1842, Dead Souls has been celebrated as a supremely realistic portrait of provincial Russian life and as a splendidly exaggerated tale; as a paean to the Russian spirit and as a remorseless satire of imperial Russian venality, vulgarity, and pomp. As Gogol's wily antihero, Chichikov, combs the back country wheeling and dealing for "dead souls"—deceased serfs who still represent money to anyone sharp enough to trade in them—we are introduced to a Dickensian cast of peasants, landowners, and conniving petty officials.

Part I of the work outlines a pact Faust makes with the devil, Mephistopheles, and encompasses the tragedy of Gretchen, whom Faust seduces.

Piranesi lives in the House. Perhaps he always has. In his notebooks, day after day, he makes a clear and careful record of its wonders: the labyrinth of halls, the thousands upon thousands of statues, the tides that thunder up staircases, the clouds that move in slow procession through the upper halls. On Tuesdays and Fridays Piranesi sees his friend, the Other. At other times he brings tributes of food to the Dead. But mostly, he is alone.
