Lacná kniha Il Cavaliere e la Morte (-25%)
Mentre l'azione si dipana, mutandosi in un potente apologo, il Vice - il commissario di polizia protagonista di questo romanzo - tiene sempre nella mente l'incisione di Dürer intitolata Il cavaliere, la morte e il diavolo", che lo ha accompagnato sulle pareti di tante stanze, nelle sue peregrinazioni da un ufficio all'altro, come se in quell'immagine si celasse il segreto di ci che avviene intorno a lui. Solo che il mondo, ormai, sembra poter fare a meno del Diavolo. Forse perché "il Diavolo era talmente stanco da lasciar tutto agli uomini, che sapevano fare meglio di lui"."

Manga Mania - How to Draw Japanese Comics

The author covers both the young and more mature styles of Manga art and includes artwork from some of the top-rated Manga artists working in this field.
The Ballad of the Sad Cafe
Few writers have expressed loneliness, the need for human understanding and the search for love with such power and poetic sensibility as the American writer Carson McCullers, and The Ballad of the Sad Cafe collects her best-loved novella together with six short stories, published in Penguin Modern Classics. Miss Amelia Evans, tall, strong and nobody's fool, runs a small-town store. Except for a disastrous marriage that lasted just ten days, she has always lived alone. Then Cousin Lymon appears from nowhere, a strutting hunchback who steals Miss Amelia's heart. Together they transform the store into a lively, popular cafe where the locals come to drink and gossip. But when her rejected and dangerous ex-husband Marvin Macy returns, the result is a bizarre love triangle that brings with it violence, hatred and betrayal. Among other fine works, the collection also includes 'Wunderkind', McCullers's first published story written when she was only seventeen, about a musical prodigy who suddenly realizes she will not go on to become a great pianist. Carson McCullers (1917-1967) was the critically acclaimed author of several popular novels in the 1940s and '50s, including The Member of the Wedding (1946), adapted for the stage in the 1950s and filmed in 1952 and 1997. Her novels frequently depicted life in small towns of the southeastern United States and were marked by themes of loneliness and spiritual isolation. Other films based on her books are Reflections in a Golden Eye (1967, with Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando), The Heart is a Lonely Hunter (1968, starring Alan Arkin) and The Ballad of the Sad Cafe (1991, starring Vanessa Redgrave). If you enjoyed The Ballad of the Sad Cafe, you might like McCullers' The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, also available in Penguin Modern Classics. 'Unexpectedly moving, grimly amusing, intensely atmospheric' The Times 'The work she has accomplished is note eclipsed by time but further illuminated' Tennessee Williams.
Atomised
Half-brothers Michel and Bruno have a mother in common but little else. Michel is a molecular biologist, a thinker and idealist, a man with no erotic life to speak of and little in the way of human society. Bruno, by contrast, is a libertine, though more in theory than in practice, his endless lust is all too rarely reciprocated. Both are symptomatic members of our atomised society, where religion has given way to shallow 'new age' philosophies and love to meaningless sexual connections. Atomised (Les Particules elementaires) tells the stories of the two brothers, but the real subject of the novel is the dismantling of contemporary society and its assumptions, its political incorrectness, and its caustic and penetrating asides on everything from anthropology to the problem pages of girls' magazines. A dissection of modern lives and loves. By turns funny, acid, infuriating, didactic, touching and visceral.
Sushi for Beginners
Marian Keyes' Sushi for Beginners is the blissfully funny, smart tale of three women who discover that the line between success and failure, happiness and sadness, sanity and madness is finer than they ever thought . . .
'Dammit,' she realized. 'I think I'm having a nervous breakdown.'
Hot-shot magazine editor Lisa Edwards' career is destined for high-rise New York, when suddenly she's blown off-course into the delights of low-rise Dublin. But what on earth can she do about it?
Ashling Kennedy, Lisa's super-organized assistant, is good at worrying. Too good. She's even terrified of a little bit of raw fish . . .
Clodagh Kelly is Ashling's best friend and has done everything right: beautiful kids and a husband come prince - everything in fact that Ashling has ever wanted. She should be - yet, she's not - happy.
Three women on the verge of happiness and even closer to a complete breakdown. Which way will they fall?
'Keyes has given romantic comedy a much-needed face-lift. Chatty and warmhearted, Keyes's talent is to tell it how it is' Independent
'Laden with plots twists, jokey asides and nicely turned bits of zeitgeisty observational humour ... her energetic, well-constructed prose delivers life and people in satisfyingly various shades of grey' Guardian

Sabbath's Theater
Winner of the National Book Award for Fiction
Sabbath's Theater is a comic creation of epic proportions, and Mickey Sabbath is its gargantuan hero. At sixty-four Sabbath is still defiantly antagonistic and exceedingly libidinous; sex is an obsession and a principle, an instrument of perpetual misrule in his daily existence. But after the death of his long-time mistress - an erotic free spirit whose great taste for the impermissible matches his own - Sabbath embarks on a turbulent journey into his past. Bereft and grieving, tormented by the ghosts of those who loved and hated him, he contrives a succession of farcical disasters that take him to the brink of madness and extinction.
The Decay of the Angel
The dramatic climax of The Sea of Fertility tetraology takes place in the late 1960s. Honda, now an aged and wealthy man, discovers and adopts a sixteen-year-old orphan, Toru, as his heir, identifying him with the tragic protagonists of the three previous novels, each of whom died at the age of twenty. Honda raises and educates the boy, yet watches him, waiting.
Music for Chameleons
At the centre of Music for Chameleons is Handcarved Coffins, a 'nonfiction novel' based on the brutal crimes of a real-life murderer.Taking place in a small Midwestern town in America, it offers chilling insights into the mind of a killer and the obsession of the man bringing him to justice. Also in this volume are six short stories and seven 'conversational portraits' including a touching one of Marilyn Monroe, the 'beautiful child' and a hilarious one of a dope-smoking cleaning lady doing her rounds in New York.

Let it Come Down
"Let It Come Down", with its title from Macbeth, tells the story of Dyar, a New York bank clerk who throws up his secure, humdrum job to find a reality abroad with which to identify himself, and his macabre experiences in the inferno of Tangiers as he gives in to his darkest impulses. Rich in descriptions of the corruption and decadence of the International Zone in the last days before Moroccan independence, Bowles' second novel is an alternately comic and horrific account of a descent into nihilism.
Notes from Underground
A collection of powerful stories by one of the masters of Russian literature, illustrating Fyodor Dostoyevsky's thoughts on political philosophy, religion and above all, humanity. From the primitive peasant who kills without understanding that he is destroying a human life, to the anxious antihero of Notes From Underground--a man who both craves and despises affection--this volume and its often-tormented characters showcase Dostoyevsky's evolving outlook on man's fate. The compelling works presented here were written at distinct periods in the author's life, at decisive moments in his groping for a political philosophy and a religious answer. Thomas Mann described Dostoyevsky as "an author whose Christian sympathy is ordinarily devoted to human misery, sin, vice, the depths of lust and crime, rather than to nobility of body and soul"--and Notes From Underground as "an awe-and-terror-inspiring example of this sympathy." Translated and with an Afterword by Andrew R. MacAndrew

Lacná kniha Furie (-50%)
Vous êtes professeur d'anglais, à la retraite, plutôt célèbre grâce à la télévision, et puis une nuit vous vous retrouvez, un couteau à la main, dans la chambre de votre femme, où dort paisiblement votre garçon. En furie. En pleine transe rageuse. Prêt à commettre l'irréparable. Inquiétant, non ? De quoi filer à l'anglaise, dare-dare, abandonnant femme et enfant, pour gagner les États-Unis. C'est ce qui arrive à Malik Solenka, Londonien d'origine indienne, "irascible créateur de poupées naguère historien des idées". Mais voilà. À New York, le refuge qui se voudrait un moment de répit, de méditation, de quête d'une sérénité perdue, la furie poursuit son œuvre démentielle. Elle prend d'abord la forme de meurtres de jeunes filles puis de rencontres amoureuses, de jeux érotiques qui tournent au cauchemar… Pour son dernier roman, Salman Rushdie n'a pas fait dans la petite dentelle, le point de Bruges ou d'Alençon, ni lésiné sur les moyens de lancer et relancer son abracadabrant récit. Il cite Woody Allen et Proust, commente un match de foot de l'Euro 2000, parle d'Alain Ducasse et d'Excalibur… Il convoque genres policier et psychologique, la tragédie et la drôlerie, l'érotisme et l'humour distant (so british), use des suspensions, des interrogations, rebondit dans l'exclamation, oscillant entre rêve et réalité. Un livre plein et entier. --Céline Darner
