Abafi
Witness the story of Abafi, a Hungarian knight who transforms from a selfish and unscrupulous man to a kind and noble individual who prioritizes the well-being of others. Follow him as he makes difficult life decisions and searches for his true love. Experience the tale that profoundly influenced Nikola Tesla, as he recounts in his autobiography, "My Inventions." Tesla states that reading this book "somehow awakened my dormant powers of will, and I began to practice self-control. At first, my resolutions faded like snow in April, but eventually, I conquered my weakness and felt a pleasure I had never known before—the pleasure of doing as I willed." For the first time, this influential book is available to the English-speaking community in a complete and comprehensive translation. Newly updated with a fresh cover and meticulously edited to eliminate spelling and grammar mistakes, this edition brings Abafi's transformative journey to a broader audience.
Intermezzo
The stories in this collection center on moments of change, of crossing the threshold, of going through the gate. Some characters experience the fragmentation of making a home in a foreign land, speaking new languages, of falling into or out of love, or of growing up. The parallel text itself is a reminder that there’s always another way to see the world and to tell a story. I racconti presenti in questa raccolta sono incentrati su momenti di cambiamento, del valicare una soglia, passare oltre un cancello. Alcuni personaggi sperimentano la frammentazione che creare una casa in terra straniera comporta. Alcuni si innamorano o si disamorano. Altri crescono. Il testo a fronte ci ricorda che c’è sempre un altro modo per vedere il mondo e di raccontare una storia.
Essence of Sunyoga
The technique of looking with open eyes towards the sun as a form of meditation has long been a mystery, kept in secret, so the strong energies we can harness would not be abused. For a long time there have been rumors and eyewitness accounts of many high saints and initiates living in seclusion in remote places, such as the Himalayas, who have practiced some form of Sun Meditation. Great men like Socrates, Ramakrishna, and Jesus are all believed to have benefited from this practice. We have now crossed a point where the common man is also trusted with this powerful technique. Essence of Sunyoga is a manual dedicated to all humans. Sunyoga is much more than just looking towards the Sun, as i...
My Big Halloween Party
“The sun was setting in Wolverhampton, turning the crowded streets red. Riding his bright green bicycle, Greybones, a very specific skeleton, pedalled with so much enthusiasm that it seemed he had the devil on his tail (in fact, he did still owe him some money).” In the charming town of Wolverhampton, England, one daring entrepreneur had a bold and spinechilling vision: to create a Park of Horrors. This twisted idea came from none other than Sir Desrius, infamously known as the “Warlock.” Ruthless and cunning, he captured monsters and magical beings from every corner of the globe to fill his eerie park. For years, these creatures have endured cruelty and mistreatment. But lately, whispers of rebellion are stirring… My Big Halloween Party is a modern fairy tale for anyone who’s ever felt judged. It will make you laugh, cry, sympathize, and march alongside the courageous protagonists in their fight for freedom.
La Ballata del Vecchio Marinaio
Dopo l'uccisione di un albatro da parte di uno sprovveduto marinaio, una terribile maledizione si abbatte su una nave e il suo equipaggio che si troverà così ad affrontare un mare tenebroso e irto di insidie...

The Memory of Odin
It is the third and final year of Fimbulvetr, the long and cold winter that precedes the end of the Nine Worlds. Midgard lies asleep under a thick layer of ice and snow. The city of men have fallen prey to ravenous wolf packs and bloodthirsty marauders. Gods, trolls and giants ready their weapons and magics for the last battle between Order and Chaos. All prepare for Ragnarok, the ultimate clash of the gods. All except Valhalla, whose tall walls are beset by deafening silence ... No singing or clash of swords can be heard. Sitting on his crumbling throne, Odin sleeps a long and dreamless sleep, waiting for the return of his memory from the inscrutable ocean of the universe and with it his strength to stand up to the Nine World and foster the flourishing of a new beginning. The book includes an essay on Norse mythology.

Love among the Castelli Romani: A Midlife Crisis for Two
