Julian Barnes' new book is, among many things, a family memoir, an exchange with his brother (a philosopher), a meditation on morality and the fear of death, a celebration of art, an argument with and about God, and homage to the French writer Jules Renard. Though he warns us that 'this is not my autobiography', the result is a tour of the mind of one of our most brilliant writers.

Alessandro Bozzo è un giornalista calabrese alla soglia dei quarant’anni. Un bivio della vita al quale arriva con un carico di minacce da parte della ’ndrangheta, un lavoro sempre più in bilico e un matrimonio che sta per fallire.

La storia di ogni grande donna è la storia delle sue guerre. Quelle di Coco Chanel sono state almeno quattro: due conflitti mondiali, le battaglie sindacali degli anni Venti e Trenta, e la guerra contro i suoi fantasmi. Questa, la più cruenta di tutte, comincia con l'abbandono da parte del padre, prosegue con l'infanzia lontana dalla famiglia, "esiliata" in un convento di suore – che però, conquistato il benessere, sosterrà economicamente – e poi con la perdita di un grande amore, il più grande, e con la rinuncia a una casa vera e propria per trasferirsi al Ritz.

In this brilliantly listenable autobiography, one of India’s greatest writers shows us the roots of everything he has written. He begins with a dream and a gentle haunting before taking us to an idyllic childhood in Jamnagar by the Arabian Sea and New Delhi in the early 1940s - where he found material for his first short story. A search for companionship and security, undercut by a fierce independence and a tendency for risk-taking, would inform every choice he made for the rest of his life.

In it, she brought the Dove Cottage years to vivid and intimate life. She noted the walks and weather, the friends, country neighbours, and travellers on the roads. She set down accounts of the garden, of Wordsworth's marriage, their concern for Coleridge, and the composition of Wordsworth's poetry.

Sergio Staino è uno dei più importanti vignettisti italiani.
