Based on thousands of pages of typed and handwritten notes, journal entries, letters, and story sketches, The Exegesis of Philip K. Dick is the magnificent and imaginative final work of an author who dedicated his life to questioning the nature of reality and perception, the malleability of space and time, and the relationship between the human and the divine. Edited and introduced by Pamela Jackson and Jonathan Lethem, this is the definitive presentation of Dick’s brilliant, and epic, work.

“Canal dói?” “O que é que eles fazem no Japão?” “Os Menudos são legais?” Stella Estrela não se dedica a responder nenhum desses questionamentos, mas a apresentar a autora dessa lista tão peculiar de perguntas.

Pubblicato nel 1920, questo primo romanzo di Ada Negri è la storia della sua vita fino all'età matura, e si conclude con la profonda scoperta dell'altra, una sé più profonda, quella che, senza mai abbandonarla, darà voce alle sue intuizioni, ai suoi contatti con l'Eterno.

Vent’anni fa ci lasciava Indro Montanelli, il giornalista che ha attraversato tutto il Novecento e lo ha raccontato a lungo con la sua verve e il suo piglio controcorrente. Nato a Fucecchio nel 1909, cominciò la sua carriera «dentro alla cronaca» nella guerra d’Abissinia. Da allora, tutti i grandi eventi storici lo videro in prima linea: era nella Spagna della guerra civile, in Polonia quando i panzer tedeschi scatenarono il secondo conflitto mondiale, nei Paesi baltici e nella Finlandia calpestati dai carri armati sovietici.

Ruskin Bond emerges again, with a delightful set of sketches set in and on the way to his beloved Mussoorie. With an endearing affection and nostalgia for his home of over 40 years, Mr Bond describes his journeys to and from Mussoorie over the years, and then delves into the daily scandals surrounding his life and friends in the (not so) sleepy hill town. The pieces in this collection are characterised by an incorrigible sense of humour and an eye for ordinary - and most often unnoticed - details that are so essential to the geographic, social and cultural fabric of a place.

Shahan Mufti’s family history, which he can trace back 1,400 years to the inner circle of the prophet Muhammad, offers an enlightened perspective on the mystifying history of Pakistan.

Tony does one, and then Grisham asks for another and another and another.
