Sono molte le strade che compongono la vita di Gaia van der Esch: ci sono le strade di campagna di Anguillara Sabazia, dove ha vissuto la sua infanzia con il fratello, il padre olandese e la madre lombarda; quelle lastricate di sampietrini del liceo e dell’università a Roma; le autostrade verso casa dei nonni nell’hinterland milanese. E poi ci sono le strade che l’hanno portata per dodici anni lontano dall’Italia, tra studio e missioni internazionali, in Germania, Francia, Belgio, Tanzania, Giordania, Iraq, Svizzera e Stati Uniti.

Cuando me gradué, me prometí a mí misma escribir un libro cuando ya tenga algo interesante que contar.

Первая часть Кодекс чести русского офицера. В русской армии офицерское звание всегда определяло принадлежность не к социальной группе, но к касте, которая жила по своим неписаным законам - по кодексу чести. В том случае, если уложения армейских уставов вступали в конфликт с положениями кодекса, выбор офицера был очевиден - в пользу кодекса чести. Офицерский суд чести был авторитетней военного трибунала, "ибо лучше быть сосланным, разжалованным, чем утратить достоинство".

Being born in poverty with all odds against him—poor, Black, and male—made Che' fair game to the savagery of what was deemed the worst ghetto in America: 1970s The Bronx, NY, home to the infamously corrupt Fort Apache police department. But if surviving that concrete jungle as a child is not inspiring enough, consider his fight against being branded as an "offender", stripped of all credibility, flogged, fired, and humiliated by being listed on the most villainous of public registries, congruent with being dragged through the one of the most scandalous criminal justice systems in America!

Every family has a story. Like my father Robert Lawrence Lamp Sr. used to say, "we are no better, but different." My sisters and I, our children and grandchildren have all been impacted by the legacy of love our parents gave us. How does a family insure that future generations understand and adopt core values that will make their lives better and different?

BOOK THE THIRD: THE HEART OF POLITICS: I have been planning and replanning, writing and rewriting, this next portion of my book for many days. I perceive I must leave it raw edged and ill joined. I have learnt something of the impossibility of History.

Sisson tem um ponto de vista singular sobre os biografados – o de um contemporâneo deles! Esse frescor, por si só, justifica sua leitura nos dias de hoje dessas biografias. De "Barão de Mauá", destaca-se a vertiginosa ascensão como empresário, cujo exemplo atualíssimo é ter fundando o Banco do Brasil. De "Eusébio de Queirós", é de se notar seu vigoroso combate ao crime num Rio de Janeiro assolado por ladrões e falsários.

Gaia ha già diverse vite alle spalle. Nata a Bogotà e adottata a pochi mesi da una famiglia italiana, è cresciuta a Genova, animata dal costante desiderio di muoversi, viaggiare, esplorare. Per conoscere nuovi luoghi e persone, o forse per trovare un posto da chiamare "casa" nel senso più pieno del termine, un'identità in cui riconoscersi fino in fondo. Oppure, più semplicemente, per andare alla ricerca di quella felicità che tutti noi rincorriamo.

Si può crescere nella stessa città, camminare per le stesse strade, incontrare le stesse persone, ma vivere storie così lontane da sentirsi abitanti di due mondi diversi. Quella di Mohamed è la storia di un bambino che impara troppo presto a conoscere sulla propria pelle l'ostilità dettata dall'ignoranza, la cattiveria del branco e l'ipocrisia degli adulti. Un bambino dagli occhi grandi, pieni di sogni, che desidera provare quel senso di appartenenza e calore che ci fa sentire "a casa" e costruire un futuro migliore per sé e per la sua famiglia.
