Story2
Lieutenant Gilbert Maltravers is bored. It is 1912 and he has been promoted as fast as any in his Dartmouth class and is placed in a battleship where he can confidently look forward to promotion to post captain and a battleship of his own by the time he is forty. All he needs to do is keep a smart ship, polish the brass and salute every senior officer, while wearing an expensive uniform that testifies he is one of the right sort. His father is an admiral, so very little can go wrong.

Berlin, 1920s: a beacon of culture and hedonism, but a political mess. The streets are crowded with war veterans, beggars, prostitutes and madmen, desperately chasing any means to secure a few marks or a roof over their heads. Come nighttime, a rag-tag group descends on the Jolly Huntsman pub to dance and drown their cares in all the schnapps they can afford. But in this society on the brink, pleasure all too easily erupts into violence.

Non è una di loro, Mallena. Un giorno di sedici anni prima è arrivata a Norolani insieme con Jubanne, cui è bastato un attimo per innamorarsi e che l'ha sposata per proteggerla da un destino che gravava su di lei come una condanna. Dovrebbero essere rivali, Mallena e Angelica, invece sono le due facce della stessa medaglia, entrambe spinte dal desiderio di libertà e indipendenza, entrambe tradite dalle persone che avrebbero dovuto proteggerle e vittime della quotidiana ingiustizia che il mondo sa riservare soprattutto alle donne.

Story0
Set just before World War I, The Good Soldier is a tragic, psychologically rich novel of love, betrayal and illusion. It is regarded as one of Ford's best works, and has been adapted for theatre, television and radio. Poignant and intricately crafted, The Good Soldier is told through the eyes of John Dowell, an unreliable and often naïve narrator. Through fragmented and non-linear storytelling, Dowell recounts the breakdown of his marriage to Florence, and the deterioration of Edward and Leonora's relationship, his prior friends.

1916. As thousands of Brits are fighting on the Front Line, a new breed of women emerges to hold the Home Front together. Fiercely independent and fiery-spirited, the munitionettes, or ‘canaries’, are easily recognisable with their chemically-stained yellow faces. Among the raucous group of women is Florrie Duncan, who plans to celebrate her birthday in style at the Golden Goose pub. But the celebrations are cut short when all but one are killed in a brutal explosion.
