Story
Just after World War II, a young orphan living in Naples comes under the protection of Don Gaetano, the superintendent of an apartment building. He is a generous man and is very attached to the boy, telling him about the war and the liberation of the city by the Neapolitans. He teaches him to play cards, shows him how to do odd jobs for the tenants, and even initiates him into the world of sex by sending him one evening to a widow who lives in the building. But Don Gaetano possesses another gift as well: he knows how to read people’s thoughts.

Story
On part en montagne pour éprouver la solitude, pour se sentir minuscule face à l’immensité de la nature. Nombreux sont les imprévus qui peuvent se présenter, d’une rencontre avec un cerf au franchissement d’une forêt déracinée par le vent. Sur un sentier escarpé des Dolomites, un homme chute dans le vide. Derrière lui, un autre homme donne l’alerte. Or, ce ne sont pas des inconnus. Compagnons du même groupe révolutionnaire quarante ans plus tôt, le premier avait livré le second et tous ses anciens camarades à la police.

Story
Napoli, estate del '43, il cielo non appartiene più alla città, ma ai bombardieri alleati. A luglio il fascismo collassa; in agosto le truppe alleate si avvicinano e a Napoli s'incattivisce l'occupazione tedesca; a settembre la resa dell'esercito italiano, rastrellamenti e deportazioni di uomini: la città sta nella tenaglia di due eserciti, uno dentro e uno fuori. Qui si svolge la vita di nove persone in quell'estate. Età, mestieri e storie differenti, compresse in un assedio, rompono le distanze tra loro e vanno insieme, prima al passo, poi fino al galoppo.

Story
Partito da ragazzo per amore in Argentina, si butta nella furiosa lotta clandestina contro la dittatura quando gli ammazzano la sposa. Scende in fondo all'America per salvarsi la vita e impara il rovescio geografico del mondo: quello toccato non è il fondo delle ultime terre, ma il culmine delle prime. Il sud è il cappello, non le scarpe, del mondo. Molti anni e molta fortuna dopo, una donna in Italia gli rinnova in corpo l'amore e l'Argentina insanguinata. Fa il giardiniere, capisce gli alberi e la solitudine.

Story
Un quartiere di vicoli a Napoli: Montedidio. Un ragazzo di tredici anni va a bottega da Mast'Errico, il falegname. È l'inizio della sua vita nuova, la vita che a sera, a casa, in una casa vuota per l'assenza del padre e per la malattia della madre, il ragazzo va scrivendo su una bobina di carta avuta in regalo dal tipografo di Montedidio. Ha anche un altro regalo, che porta sempre con sé, un "bùmeran", un legno nato per volare che il padre ebbe a sua volta da un marinaio di passaggio. Così passano i giorni: Mast'Errico gli insegna il mestiere e Don Rafaniello, uno scarparo che Mast'Errico tiene ospite a bottega, gli insegna a pensare sugli uomini e sulle cose.

Story
"C'è un'estate brusca nell'età giovane in cui si impara il mondo di corsa. In un'isola del Tirreno, alla metà degli anni Cinquanta, un pescatore che ha conosciuto la guerra e una giovane donna dal nome difficile, senza intenzione trasmettono a un ragazzo la febbre del rispondere. Qui si racconta una risposta, un eccomi, decisivo come un luogo di nascita. 'Tu, mio' è un racconto di superamento della cosiddetta 'linea d'ombra', centrato sul passaggio dai privilegi dell'adolescenza alla ruvidezza della maturità.

D'une taille et d'une puissance exceptionnelles, l'animal pressent pourtant que sa dernière saison en tant que roi est arrivée, sa suprématie est désormais menacée par les plus jeunes. En face de lui, un braconnier revenu vivre en haute montagne, ses espoirs en la Révolution déçus, sait lui aussi que le temps joue contre lui.

Story
Storie viste dal marciapiede, dal basso di chi nei luoghi sta. Cartoline, brevi lettere, trenta racconti scritti come si fa quando si parte per davvero e si racconta una storia a qualcuno che si ama. Con lo stesso titolo era già uscito un altro racconto di Erri De Luca, alla fine degli anni Novanta. In quell'edizione c'erano le storie dei suoi viaggi nella Bosnia in guerra, nel pieno della Guerra civile jugoslava. In questo altro Pianoterra quelle storie non ci sono quasi più. Resta però identica la prospettiva di chi guarda. Perché questo audiolibro è un "atto di residenza".

Story
De Luca ci presenta le sue riflessioni sul Vecchio Testamento sotto forma di piccoli racconti. Si tratta, come lui stesso afferma, di un "tentativo di essere lettore di Bibbia in un'epoca fredda". Un lettore che ha studiato per anni, da sé, la lingua ebraica. Ne risultano una lettura e una traduzione del testo sacro assai sorprendenti.

Story
"Questo breve e intenso primo libro di Erri De Luca porta già impressi in ogni frase - mi sembra - i segni di un vero scrittore: un tono di voce che appena si coglie diventa inconfondibile, e la integrità di uno sguardo che sa mettere nel giusto fuoco i pensieri e i sentimenti. Qui la memoria non è consolazione, ma è un dramma, e il tempo gioca un suo gioco crudele stabilendo distanze insormontabili tra chi narra e la materia del proprio racconto. Una luce bianca e densa come quella che filtra da nuvole alte bagna queste pagine.

"Noi ci stiamo difendendo da voi, voi da noi: così le aule diventeranno campi di battaglia, vincerà il più forte, ma la scuola sarà finita." Quella che voleva essere una semplice bravata sollecita le parole di un professore dalle mani e dal cuore di gigante buono. Il pannello svitato di una cattedra nel 1967 si tramuterà nella prima ribellione. Avrà la meglio la nuova, fragile, coesione della classe o qualcuno cederà al timore della punizione?

Story
Un libro che affianca a 36 racconti di Erri De Luca altrettanti disegni (in bianco e nero e a colori) dell'artista Alessandro Mendini. Un duetto che rimanda a una nostra tradizione forte - basti pensare al connubio fra Rodari e Munari - e che qui comincia sempre con un'illustrazione, da cui poi il racconto prende liberamente l'abbrivio. "Quello che scrivo," dice De Luca, "dipende dal riflesso di uno che è preso alla sprovvista."

Vista, udito, tatto, gusto, olfatto. La fisicità della divinità deve essere presa alla lettera. Erri De Luca e Gennaro Matino vanno dritti alla sostanza della lingua sacra. Perché le scritture per parlarci devono adottare vie di comunicazione a noi familiari. Gli apostoli vedono Dio, lo toccano, sentono la sua voce, ne percepiscono il profumo, condividono il pane nell'ultima cena.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

For decades we've been told that positive thinking is the key to a happy, rich life. "F*ck positivity," Mark Manson says. "Let's be honest, shit is f*cked, and we have to live with it." In his wildly popular Internet blog, Manson doesn't sugarcoat or equivocate. He tells it like it is - a dose of raw, refreshing, honest truth that is sorely lacking today. The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck is his antidote to the coddling, let's-all-feel-good mind-set that has infected modern society and spoiled a generation, rewarding them with gold medals just for showing up.
