As soon as we sat on the ride I knew something was wrong. I couldn’t relax. I couldn’t hear the theme park music, the giggles of my two other children. I’d left my baby in someone else’s care. And I knew I’d made a mistake... With her two beautiful children and newborn baby Ella, Lily’s life is full of love and laughter. She gave up her job to be a stay-at-home mother, and though she sometimes envies the freedom of best friend Hannah, Lily wouldn’t trade it for anything.

"Dacă Bolintineanu ar fi avut acces la lumea de curăţii geometrice cărora li se închina Ion Barbu? Dacă pe Eminescu l-ar fi mişcat zbuciumul din sufletul unui Manoil? Dacă lui Arghezi i-ar fi venit gustul să rescrie el Ţiganiada? Dacă ar fi presimţit paşoptiştii noştri că se va ivi pe meleagurile române un tiran fără pereche şi porneau să-l ia în tărbacă, aşa cum ştiau ei, cu cântecele comice şi monoloage autodemascatoare?"

A mű középpontjában a barátság, hűség és árulás nagy kérdései állnak. De nem pusztán egyes emberi sorsokról van itt szó, hanem egy másik, talán még nagyobb tragédiáról, arról, hogy a régi rend, társadalom széthullása a hagyományos erkölcsi értékek megrendülését is jelenti. Nagy indulatoktól feszülő, szuggesztív erejű regény ez, Márai stílusművészetének remeke.

"Foucaults pendul" er en usædvanlig underholdende roman, med en spændende handling og et mylder af mærkværdige – men altid troværdige – personer. Som et motto foran i bogen står: "Overtro bringer uheld" og det er netop dette tema Eco i mange variationer gennemspiller i bogen. En af romanens hovedpersoner er Milanostudenten Casaubon, der skriver speciale om middelalderens Tempelriddere. Han kommer i kontakt med de to forlagsredaktører Belbo og Diotallevi.

"La tregua" è il racconto del ritorno di Primo Levi, il seguito di "Se questo è un uomo", che racconta le esperienze dell'autore durante il lungo viaggio attraverso Russia e Europa dell'Est per tornare alla sua Torino. Un viaggio assurdo, fatto di incontri con persone di civiltà e lingue diverse ma tutte vittime della stessa guerra. "Ci sono voluti anni per capire che quello che veniva etichettato come un testimone era uno dei più grandi scrittori del Novecento non soltanto italiano: cioè che era il migliore dei testimoni proprio perché grande scrittore."

La protagonista de Boulder és una dona atreta per la solitud com per un imant. Es guanya la vida fent de cuinera en un buc - la situació perfecta: una cabina, l'oceà, moltes hores per encarar el buit i algun port on conèixer dones. Fins que una la reté, se l'emporta entre les quatre parets d'una casa i l'embarca en la gestació assistida d'una criatura. ¿Què en farà, la maternitat, de l'amant coneguda en un bar? ¿I què farà ella a la gàbia? Dos anys després de Permagel i d'un viatge a través de mitja dotzena de llengües, l'obra de Baltasar torna a atracar entre nosaltres amb una heroïna com només sap crear-les ella.

Ce périple, les trois jeunes gens l'ont entrepris au mépris du danger, au péril de leur vie, et malgré les supplications de leurs fiancées respectives. Ils l'ont fait pour le rayonnement de la France, le progrès de la science et aussi un peu pour passer le temps. Il en résulte un roman d'aventure avec de l'action à l'intérieur et aussi des temps calmes et du passé simple. Ceci est une expérience de lecture immersive. Hormis deux ou trois passages inquiétants, le suspense y est supportable et l'oeuvre reste accessible au public poitrinaire.
