<![CDATA[1Q84. Libro 1 e 2: aprile-settembre]]> 13006140 Intanto Aomame (che pure non è certo una ragazza qualsiasi: nella borsetta ha un affilatissimo rompighiaccio con cui deve uccidere un uomo) osserva perplessa il mondo che la circonda: sembra quello di sempre, eppure piccoli, sinistri particolari divergono da quello a cui era abituata. Finché un giorno non vede comparire in cielo una seconda luna e sospetta di essere l'unica persona in grado di attraversare la sottile barriera che divide il 1984 dal 1Q84.
Ma capisce anche un'altra cosa: che quella barriera sta per infrangersi.

"1Q84" è stato accolto, alla sua uscita in Giappone, come il capolavoro di Murakami Haruki e immediatamente elevato a oggetto di un autentico culto, tanto che sono comparsi libri e riviste che provano a indagare i misteri e rispondere agli interrogativi che solleva questo romanzo fluviale, ricco di storie (e storie dentro storie), personaggi, idee.
Un Murakami al suo meglio che riesce come non mai a centrifugare le suggestioni più diverse (dal folklore giapponese all'immaginario manga, dalla fantascienza occidentale alla tradizione letteraria orientale) e a esplorare le nostre ossessioni per dare vita a un mondo del tutto personale, onirico e malinconico, in cui nessuna realtà parallela ripaga per la nostalgia di un'amicizia d'infanzia, per un amore mancato.]]>

Katabasis 210223811 Two graduate students must set aside their rivalry and journey to Hell to save their professor’s soul, perhaps at the cost of their own.

Alice Law has only ever had one goal: to become one of the brightest minds in the field of Magick. She has sacrificed everything to make that a reality—her pride, her health, her love life, and most definitely her sanity. All to work with Professor Jacob Grimes at Cambridge, the greatest magician in the world—that is, until he dies in a magical accident that could possibly be her fault.

Grimes is now in Hell, and she’s going in after him. Because his recommendation could hold her very future in his now incorporeal hands, and even death is not going to stop the pursuit of her dreams. Nor will the fact that her rival, Peter Murdoch, has come to the same conclusion.]]>

Yellowface 62047984
So what if June edits Athena’s novel and sends it to her agent as her own work? So what if she lets her new publisher rebrand her as Juniper Song—complete with an ambiguously ethnic author photo? This piece of history deserve to be told, whoever the teller. That is what June believes, and The New York Times bestseller list agrees.

But June cannot escape Athena’s shadow, and emerging evidence threatens her stolen success. As she races to protect her secret she discovers exactly how far she will go to keep what she thinks she deserves.]]>

<![CDATA[Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow]]> 58784475 In this exhilarating novel, two friends—often in love, but never lovers—come together as creative partners in the world of video game design, where success brings them fame, joy, tragedy, duplicity, and, ultimately, a kind of immortality.

On a bitter-cold day, in the December of his junior year at Harvard, Sam Masur exits a subway car and sees, amid the hordes of people waiting on the platform, Sadie Green. He calls her name. For a moment, she pretends she hasn't heard him, but then, she turns, and a game begins: a legendary collaboration that will launch them to stardom. These friends, intimates since childhood, borrow money, beg favors, and, before even graduating college, they have created their first blockbuster, Ichigo. Overnight, the world is theirs. Not even twenty-five years old, Sam and Sadie are brilliant, successful, and rich, but these qualities won't protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of their hearts.

Spanning thirty years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, California, and lands in between and far beyond, Gabrielle Zevin's Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is a dazzling and intricately imagined novel that examines the multifarious nature of identity, disability, failure, the redemptive possibilities in play, and above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love. Yes, it is a love story, but it is not one you have read before.]]>

Everything I Know About Love 46041465
When it comes to the trials and triumphs of becoming an adult, journalist and former Sunday Times columnist Dolly Alderton has seen and tried it all. In her memoir, she vividly recounts falling in love, finding a job, getting drunk, getting dumped, realizing that Ivan from the corner shop might just be the only reliable man in her life, and that absolutely no one can ever compare to her best girlfriends. Everything I Know About Love is about bad dates, good friends and—above all else— realizing that you are enough.

Glittering with wit and insight, heart and humor, Dolly Alderton’s unforgettable debut weaves together personal stories, satirical observations, a series of lists, recipes, and other vignettes that will strike a chord of recognition with women of every age—making you want to pick up the phone and tell your best friends all about it. Like Bridget Jones’ Diary but all true, Everything I Know About Love is about the struggles of early adulthood in all its terrifying and hopeful uncertainty.]]>

<![CDATA[Art Matters: Because Your Imagination Can Change the World]]> 40090596
"The world always seems brighter when you've just made something that wasn't there before". (Neil Gaiman)

Drawn from Gaiman's trove of published speeches, poems and creative manifestos, 'ART MATTERS' is an embodiment of this remarkable multimedia artist's vision - an exploration of how reading, imagining, and creating can transform the world and our lives.

'ART MATTERS' brings together four of Gaiman's most beloved writings on creativity and artistry:

?1?
"CREDO", his remarkably concise and relevant manifesto on free expression, first delivered in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo shootings

?2?
"MAKE GOOD ART", his famous 2012 commencement address delivered at the Philadelphia University of the Arts

?3?
"MAKING A CHAIR", a poem about the joys of creating something, even when the words won't come

?4?
"ON LIBRARIES", an impassioned argument for libraries that illuminates their importance to our future and celebrates how they foster readers and daydreamers.

'ART MATTERS' is a stirring testament to the freedom of ideas that inspire us to make art in the face of adversity and dares us to choose to be bold.

Niente di vero 60162498 Fleabag al Lamento di Portnoy, aggiungete l’uso spietato che Annie Ernaux fa dei ricordi: avrete la voce di una scrittrice che in Italia ancora non c’era. Veronica Raimo sabota dall’interno il romanzo di formazione. Il suo racconto procede in modo libero, seminando sassolini indimenticabili sulla strada. All’origine ci sono una madre onnipresente che riconosce come unico principio morale la propria ansia; un padre pieno di ossessioni igieniche e architettoniche che condanna i figli a fare presto i conti con la noia; un fratello genio precoce, centro di tutte le attenzioni. Circondata da questa congrega di famigliari difettosi, Veronica scopre l’impostura per inventare se stessa. Se la memoria è una sabotatrice sopraffina e la scrittura, come il ricordo, rischia di falsare allegramente la tua identità, allora il comico è una precisa scelta letteraria, il grimaldello per aprire all’indicibile. In questa storia all’apparenza intima, c’è il racconto precisissimo di certi cortocircuiti emotivi, di quell’energia paralizzante che può essere la famiglia, dell’impresa sempre incerta che è il diventare donna. Con una prosa nervosa, pungente, dall’intelligenza sempre inquieta, Veronica Raimo ci regala un monologo ustionante.]]> 176 Veronica Raimo 8806251899 Sara 4 3.59 2022 Niente di vero

The Future 24544627 Non-Places, the prevailing idea of “the Future” rests on our present fears of the contemporary world. It is to the future that we look for redemption and progress; but it is also where we project our personal and apocalyptic anxieties. By questioning notions of certainty, truth, and totality, Augé finds ways to separate the future from our eternal, terrified present and liberates the mind to allow it to conceptualize our possible futures afresh.

<![CDATA[Retromania: Pop Culture's Addiction to Its Own Past]]> 9854239
We live in a pop age gone loco for retro and crazy for commemoration. Band re-formations and reunion tours, expanded reissues of classic albums and outtake-crammed box sets, remakes and sequels, tribute albums and mash-ups . . . But what happens when we run out of past? Are we heading toward a sort of culturalecological catastrophe where the archival stream of pop history has been exhausted?

Simon Reynolds, one of the finest music writers of his generation, argues that we have indeed reached a tipping point, and that although earlier eras had their own obsessions with antiquity―the Renaissance with its admiration for Roman and Greek classicism, the Gothic movement's invocations of medievalism―never has there been a society so obsessed with the cultural artifacts of its own immediate past. Retromania is the first book to examine the retro industry and ask the Is this retromania a death knell for any originality and distinctiveness of our own?]]>

Dopo due anni e sette mesi passati a mordere il freno su Anima, la sua arca, per Ofelia è finalmente arrivato il momento di agire, sfruttare quanto ha scoperto nel Libro di Faruk e saputo dai frammenti di informazioni divulgate da Dio. Con una falsa identità si reca su Babel, arca cosmopolita e gioiello di modernità. Basterà il suo talento di lettrice a sventare le trappole di avversari sempre più temibili? Ha ancora una minima possibilità di ritrovare le tracce di Thorn?]]>

Sulla gelida arca del Polo, dove Ofelia è stata sbattuta dalle Decane perché sposi suo malgrado il nobile Thorn, il caldo è soffocante. Ma è soltanto una delle illusioni provocate dalla casta dominante dell’arca, i Miraggi, in grado di produrre giungle sospese in aria, mari sconfinati all’interno di palazzi e vestiti di farfalle svolazzanti. A Città-cielo, capitale del Polo, Ofelia viene presentata al sire Faruk, il gigantesco spirito di famiglia bianco come la neve e completamente privo di memoria, che spera nelle doti di lettrice di Ofelia per svelare i misteri contenuti nel Libro, un documento enigmatico che nei secoli ha causato la pazzia o la morte degli incauti che si sono cimentati a decifrarlo. Per Ofelia è l’inizio di una serie di avventure e disavventure in cui, con il solo aiuto di una guardia del corpo invisibile, dovrà difendersi dagli attacchi a tradimento dei decaduti e dalle trappole mortali dei Miraggi. ? la prima a stupirsi quando si rende conto che sta rischiando la pelle e investendo tutte le sue energie nell’indagine solo per amore di Thorn, l’uomo che credeva di odiare più di chiunque al mondo. Sennonché Thorn è scomparso...]]>

The bestselling LGBTQ+ graphic novel about life, love, and everything that happens in between: this is the fourth volume of HEARTSTOPPER, for fans of The Art of Being Normal, Holly Bourne and Love, Simon.

Charlie didn't think Nick could ever like him back, but now they're officially boyfriends. Charlie's beginning to feel ready to say those three little words: I love you.

As summer turns to autumn and a new school year begins, Charlie and Nick are about to learn a lot about what love means.

Heartstopper is about love, friendship, loyalty and mental illness. It encompasses all the small stories of Nick and Charlie's lives that together make up something larger, which speaks to all of us.

This is the fourth volume of Heartstopper, which has now been optioned for television by See-Saw Films.]]>

<![CDATA[Only Connect. Art and the Spectator in the Italian Renaissance]]> 2155374
Only Connect constructs a history of Renaissance paintings and sculptures that are by design completed outside themselves by the spectator, that draw the spectator into their narrative plot or aesthetic functioning, and that reposition the spectator imaginatively or in time and space. John Shearman’s concern is mostly with anterior relationships with the viewer―that is, relationships conceived and constructed as part of a work’s design, making, and positioning. He proposes unconventional ways in which works of art may be distinguished from one another, and in which spectators may be distinguished as well, and enlarges the accepted field of artistic invention.

Only Connect challenges us to recognize the presuppositions of Renaissance artists about their viewers, shining a light on the process of discovery by some of the most inventive and intellectual artists of the period.]]>

Radical museology 19235122 В ответ на жесткое сокращение государственного финансирования несколько музеев современного искусства разработало убедительные альтернативы мантре ?чем больше, тем лучше и богаче?. В ?Радикальной музеологии? Клэр Бишоп говорит о новом понимании современного в современном искусстве, приводя в пример постоянные экспозиции собраний Музея Ван Аббе в Эйндховене, Музея королевы Софии в Мадриде и Музея современного искусства Metelkova в Любляне.
?Радикальная музеология? – страстный манифест в защиту понимания современности как метода, а не как периодизации, в защиту важности политизированной репрезентации истории в музеях современного искусства.

Клэр Бишоп – профессор программы докторантуры по истории искусства в Городском Университете Нью-Йорка (CUNY). Дан Пержовски – художник из Бухареста.]]>

Babel 57945316 From award-winning author R. F. Kuang comes Babel, a historical fantasy epic that grapples with student revolutions, colonial resistance, and the use of language and translation as the dominating tool of the British Empire

Traduttore, traditore: An act of translation is always an act of betrayal.

1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. The tower and its students are the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver-working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as the arcane craft serves the Empire's quest for colonization.

For Robin, Oxford is a utopia dedicated to the pursuit of knowledge. But knowledge obeys power, and as a Chinese boy raised in Britain, Robin realizes serving Babel means betraying his motherland. As his studies progress, Robin finds himself caught between Babel and the shadowy Hermes Society, an organization dedicated to stopping imperial expansion. When Britain pursues an unjust war with China over silver and opium, Robin must decide . . .

Can powerful institutions be changed from within, or does revolution always require violence?]]>

<![CDATA[Middlegame (Alchemical Journeys, #1)]]> 35965482 New York Times bestselling and Alex, Nebula, and Hugo-Award-winning author Seanan McGuire introduces readers to a world of amoral alchemy, shadowy organizations, and impossible cities in this standalone fantasy.

Meet Roger. Skilled with words, languages come easily to him. He instinctively understands how the world works through the power of story.

Meet Dodger, his twin. Numbers are her world, her obsession, her everything. All she understands, she does so through the power of math.

Roger and Dodger aren’t exactly human, though they don’t realise it. They aren’t exactly gods, either. Not entirely. Not yet.

Meet Reed, skilled in the alchemical arts like his progenitor before him. Reed created Dodger and her brother. He’s not their father. Not quite. But he has a plan: to raise the twins to the highest power, to ascend with them and claim their authority as his own.

Godhood is attainable. Pray it isn’t attained.

But when the casting changes, and the secondary characters usurp the stars, the plays spill dangerously over into life, and one of them is found dead. The rest face their greatest acting challenge yet: convincing the police, and themselves, that they are blameless.]]>

Stupeur et tremblements 71458 This is an alternate cover edition for isbn13: 9782253150718

Au début des années 90, la narratrice est embauchée par Yumimoto, une puissante firme japonaise. Elle va découvrir à ses dépens l'implacable rigeur de l'autorité d'entreprise, en même temps qu les codes de conduite, incompréhensibles au profane, qui gouvernent la vie sociale au pays du Soleil levant.

D'erreurs en maladresses et en échecs, commence alors pour elle, comme dans un mauvais rêve, la descente inexorable dans les degrés de la hiérarchie, jusqu'au rang de surveillante des toilettes, celui de l'humiliation dernière. Une course absurde vers l'ab?me - image de la vie -, où l'humour percutant d'Amélie Nothomb fait mouche à chaque ligne.

Entre le rire et l'angoisse, cette satire des nouveaux despotismes aux échos kafka?ens a conquis un immense public et valu à l'auteur d'Hygiène de l'assassin le Grand Prix du roman de l'Académie fran?aise en 1999.]]>

<![CDATA[The Poppy War (The Poppy War, #1)]]> 35068705
When Rin aced the Keju—the Empire-wide test to find the most talented youth to learn at the Academies—it was a shock to everyone: to the test officials, who couldn’t believe a war orphan from Rooster Province could pass without cheating; to Rin’s guardians, who believed they’d finally be able to marry her off and further their criminal enterprise; and to Rin herself, who realized she was finally free of the servitude and despair that had made up her daily existence. That she got into Sinegard—the most elite military school in Nikan—was even more surprising.

But surprises aren’t always good.

Because being a dark-skinned peasant girl from the south is not an easy thing at Sinegard. Targeted from the outset by rival classmates for her color, poverty, and gender, Rin discovers she possesses a lethal, unearthly power—an aptitude for the nearly-mythical art of shamanism. Exploring the depths of her gift with the help of a seemingly insane teacher and psychoactive substances, Rin learns that gods long thought dead are very much alive—and that mastering control over those powers could mean more than just surviving school.

For while the Nikara Empire is at peace, the Federation of Mugen still lurks across a narrow sea. The militarily advanced Federation occupied Nikan for decades after the First Poppy War, and only barely lost the continent in the Second. And while most of the people are complacent to go about their lives, a few are aware that a Third Poppy War is just a spark away . . .

Rin’s shamanic powers may be the only way to save her people. But as she finds out more about the god that has chosen her, the vengeful Phoenix, she fears that winning the war may cost her humanity . . . and that it may already be too late.]]>

Fate e folletti popolano il mondo fantastico di questa commedia di Shakespeare, lieve e raffinata, in cui amori e tradimenti si susseguono con comicità e grazia incantevole. Dalla bellissima Titania, regina delle fate, innamorata perdutamente di un uomo dalla testa d'asino, al comico e irresistibile Bottom fino al capriccioso folletto Puck, i cui errori nel somministrare i filtri d'amore muovono le sottili trame della vicenda.
Una commedia lieve e briosa, ricca di improvvisazioni e colpi di scena, che inaugura un nuovo tipo di rappresentazione nel panorama shakespeariano.]]>
