Story20
"If war spares me," wrote Vera Brittain to her brother, Edward, in 1916, "it will be my one aim to immortalise in a book the story of us four." Seventeen years later, Vera was to achieve her aim with the acclaimed Testament of Youth. This series of letters was the inspiration behind Testament. Written between Vera; her brother; her fiancé, Roland Leighton; and their two best friends, Victor Richardson and Geoffrey Thurlow, they give a unique perspective on the most horrifying conflict the world has ever seen.

Story2
A story of courage, unconventionality and lust for life. Vera Wasowski was just seven years old when German soldiers marched her family into the Lvov Jewish ghetto in Poland. She watched her father take his own life and her mother accede to sexual blackmail in order to ensure her and Vera’s survival. With unsparing honesty and the blackest humour, she recalls a world where the desire to survive was everything.

Trentacinque anni non sono bastati per far luce sul caso Moro. Inchieste giudiziarie e parlamentari, saggi, articoli e film non sono serviti a illuminare tutte le zone d'ombra del delitto che - forse più di ogni altro nella nostra storia repubblicana - ha colpito la coscienza del Paese e incrinato il rapporto tra società civile e mondo politico. Ecco perché vale ancora la pena di analizzare la dinamica dei 55 giorni di prigionia di Aldo Moro, nel tentativo finalmente di dare delle risposte diverse dalla versione ufficiale dei fatti.

In 1931, the tensions of the Great Depression took hold of Detroit at every level—even spilling over into the investigation of a mysterious murder at the Delray boardinghouse. Amid accusations of witchcraft, Hungarian immigrant Rose Veres and her son Bill were convicted of the brutal killing and suspected in a dozen more. Their cries of innocence went unheeded—until one lawyer, determined to seek justice, took on the case.

Vera Atkins is one of the many unsung heroes and heroines of World War II. She carried out her life with great care and due diligence, quietly becoming the perfect spy when no one was watching. Beneath her polished exterior was a mind built for strategy, secrecy, and survival. But Vera wasn’t just a spy—she was a Spymistress. That’s what her operatives in Britain’s military intelligence unit, the Special Operations Executive, called her.

Themes of unspoiled paradise tamed by progress can be seen in stories about pioneer history across the US, especially in Florida. Selling Vero Beach explores how settlers from northern states created myths about the Indian River area on Florida's Atlantic Coast, importing ideas about the region's Indigenous peoples and marketing the land as an idyllic, fertile place of possibilities.

«I bambini affamati erano tanti. Cominciava il tempo umido e freddo e non c’era carbone. I casi pietosi erano molti, moltissimi. Bambini che dormivano in casse di segatura per avere meno freddo, senza lenzuola e senza coperte. Bambini rimasti soli o con parenti anziani che non avevano la forza e i mezzi per curarsi di loro.» Così scrisse Teresa Noce, dirigente dell’Udi, Unione donne italiane, che fu l’anima del grande sforzo collettivo avviato all’indomani della Seconda guerra mondiale per salvare i piccoli del Sud condannati dalla povertà.

La realtà non ha bisogno di essere plausibile. Quando Jerry Siegel, nel 1933, scrisse la prima avventura di Superman, chiarì subito che il marmocchio spedito sulla Terra da un altro pianeta aveva super poteri. Da quel momento in poi nessuno si meravigliò vedendo nei fumetti il giovanotto col mantello rosso volare alla velocità della luce e sorreggere un aereo con le mani. Si chiama “sospensione dell’incredulità”: nelle opere di fantasia il lettore accetta come possibili, cose che non potrebbero mai accadere nella realtà. Fantasiosamente vero, al contrario, è una serie che racconta...

Nelle valli dietro Torino, a Prali, esiste un solido caseggiato in pietra. È stato costruito subito dopo la Seconda Guerra Mondiale, grazie al lavoro volontario di ragazze e ragazzi provenienti da ogni parte del mondo. A Riesi, in Sicilia, c’è un vivace villaggio che da mezzo secolo anima il territorio, permettendo a centinaia di bambini e di giovani di crescere, confrontarsi, informarsi. Questi progetti si devono a un uomo visionario che ha vissuto, sognato e agito nel secolo scorso: Tullio Vinay.

La vera storia della banda della Magliana. Quali misteri avvolgono ancora la banda della Magliana? Perché, pur macchiatosi di innumerevoli delitti, Enrico De Pedis, il boss della frangia più pericolosa della banda, è stato sepolto nella cripta della basilica vaticana di Sant'Apollinare, tra monsignori e cardinali e con il benestare del Vicario del Papa? Proprio lì vicino il 22 giugno del 1983 scomparve la quindicenne Emanuela Orlandi, e gli inquirenti sono ormai convinti che la banda della Magliana sia coinvolta nel rapimento.
