Story
Nate come testi per un ciclo di conferenze da tenere ad Harvard queste lezioni costituiscono l'ultimo insegnamento di un grande maestro: una severa disciplina della mente, temperata dall'ironia e dalla consapevolezza di non poter giungere ad una conoscenza assoluta. Presentazione di Esther Calvino e postfazione di Giorgio Manganelli.

Story
"Gli amori difficili: definizione ironica, certo, perché dove d'amore - o di amori - si tratta, le difficoltà restano molto relative. O almeno, ciò che sta alla base di molte di queste storie è una difficoltà di comunicazione, una zona di silenzio al fondo dei rapporti umani. Se queste sono, per la più parte, storie di come una coppia non s'incontra, nel loro non incontrarsi l'autore sembra far consistere non solo una ragione di disperazione ma pure un elemento fondamentale - se non addirittura l'essenza stessa - del rapporto amoroso" (Italo Calvino).

Story
"Il racconto fantastico è una delle produzioni più caratteristiche della narrativa dell'Ottocento, e una delle più significative per noi. Alla nostra sensibilità d'oggi l'elemento soprannaturale al centro di questi intrecci appare sempre carico di senso, come l'insorgere dell'inconscio, del represso, del dimenticato, dell'allontanato dalla nostra attenzione razionale. In ciò va vista la modernità del fantastico, la ragione del suo ritorno di fortuna nella nostra epoca."

Story
Nella guerra tra Austria e Turchia del 1716, il visconte Medardo di Terralba viene colpito da una cannonata turca in pieno petto e torna a casa dimezzato. Questo truculento inizio dà l'avvio a una fiaba cadenzata come un balletto, nella quale attorno al mezzo-visconte si muovono e s'affannano sudditi più dimezzati di lui. È una fantasia paga del fuoco di fila delle sue trovate, questa di Calvino, o una pensosa allegoria della condizione dell'uomo contemporaneo sempre "alienato", mutilato, impossibilitato a raggiungere l'integrità, la completezza?

Story
Written between 1943 and 1984 and masterfully translated by Tim Parks, the fictions in Numbers in the Dark display all of Calvino's dazzling gifts: whimsy and horror, exuberance of style, and a cheerful grasp of the absurdities of the human condition. Here are speculative stories on life in the digital age, genre-bending wonders, and “impossible interviews” with the likes of Montezuma and a Neanderthal.

Story
"Il protagonista di questo libro si chiama Qfwfq. Altro non si sa, non è nemmeno detto che sia un uomo... Quanti anni ha? Dato che non c'è avvenimento di milioni o miliardi di anni fa cui non abbia assistito, si deve calcolare che ha più o meno l'età dell'universo. Basta che il discorso tocchi di sfuggita l'accensione delle galassie o l'estinzione dei dinosauri, la formazione del sistema solare o i cataclismi geologici, ed eccolo saltar su a raccontare che c'era anche lui."

Story
"Le donne, i cavallier, l'arme, gli amori" cantati da Italo Calvino, con la sua lettura chiara, appassionata e lucida di un classico della nostra letteratura. Calvino propone una ricca scelta di strofe non rispettando la divisione in canti, ma seguendo le vicende dei singoli personaggi. Si alternano perciò parti di commento, narrazione, quasi di anticipazione, a versi del testo originale, in un vero "racconto" in cui sembra quasi di sentire la voce.

"La nuvola di smog" è un racconto continuamente tentato di diventare qualcos'altro: saggio sociologico o diario intimo. Immagine e ideogramma del mondo cui ci troviamo a far fronte è lo smog. La nebbia fumosa è carica di detriti chimici delle città industriali. Questo volume comprende anche un racconto di qualche anno prima e molto diverso, "La formica argentina", che l'autore ha voluto affiancare a "La nuvola di smog" per un'affinità strutturale e morale. Qui il male di vivere viene dalla natura: le formiche che infestano la riviera.

Story
In five elegant autobiographical meditations Calvino delves into his past, remembering awkward childhood walks with his father, a lifelong obsession with the cinema, and fighting in the Italian Resistance against the Fascists. He also muses on the social contracts, language, and sensations associated with emptying the kitchen rubbish and the shape he would, if asked, consider the world. These reflections on the nature of memory itself are engaging, witty, and lit through with Calvino's alchemical brilliance.

Story
Italo Calvino was only 23 when he first published this bold and imaginative novel. It tells the story of Pin, a cobbler's apprentice in a town on the Ligurian coast during World War II. He lives with his sister, a prostitute, and spends as much time as he can at a seedy bar where he amuses the adult patrons. After a mishap with a Nazi soldier, Pin becomes involved with a band of partisans. Calvino's portrayal of these characters, seen through the eyes of a child, is not only a revealing commentary on the Italian resistance but an insightful coming-of-age story.

His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history, but this was only the most recent of the global epidemics in which Dr. Fauci played a major role. His crucial role in researching HIV and bringing AIDS into sympathetic public view and his leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS, West Nile, and anthrax crises, make him truly an American hero.
