Ginevra o L’Orfana della Nunziata
Al lettore L'autore dichiara che, come non ha inteso di ritrarre in questo libro i costumi della Nunziata in particolare, ma, tolta quindi l'occasione, quelli di tutta la città di Napoli in generale, così non ha inteso né anche di ritrarvi nessun uomo in atto, ma molte nature d'uomini in idea. E però, di chiunque fosse, cui paresse di raffigurarsi in qualcuno dei ritratti che quivi s'incontrano, egli direbbe, a uso di Fedro: Stulte nudabit animi conscientiam. Notizia intorno alla Ginevra Non si appartiene a me di giudicare questo libro. Il supremo giudice dei libri, è il tempo. Un libro può essere tre cose: una cosa nulla, una cosa rea, una cosa buona.

Jephte's Daughter
The pampered daughter of a wealthy Hasidic businessman, Batsheva Ha-Levi grows up in the affluent suburbs of Los Angeles. But everything changes when she turns eighteen and finds that her loving father has made a secret vow which will shatter her life, forcing her to marry a man she hardly knows and sending her to the exotic, golden city of Jerusalem. On her wedding day, she enters a strange and foreign world steeped in tradition and surrounded by myth. Shackled by ancient rules, she soon understands that to survive she will have no choice but to fight for her freedom, to reconcile her own need to live in the modern world with her ancestral obligations, and to choose between the three men who vie for her body, her soul, and her love. Now a classic listed among the one hundred most important Jewish books of all time*, Jephte's Daughter is bestselling author Naomi Ragen's beloved first novel. With poignancy and insight, it takes readers on a groundbreaking and unforgettable journey inside the hidden world of women in the ultra-Orthodox Jewish community. *100 Essential Books For Jewish Readers, Rabbi Daniel B.

The King of China
When Keith Stapperpfennig and his family give their grandfather the trip of a lifetime--an all expenses paid holiday to any destination in the world--the eccentric old man arbitrarily chooses China, and he asks Keith to accompany him. But when Keith loses all the money for the journey at a casino, he goes into hiding--mostly under his desk--and his grandfather--equally uninterested in actually traveling to China--heads down the road to engage in a similar subterfuge. And it is here that the novel opens, two men in hiding, mere miles apart. But when his grandfather dies unexpectedly, Keith is left to continue the farce alone. With the aid of a guidebook, Keith writes a series of letters home to his brothers and sisters, detailing their imaginary travels and the bizarre sights they see. These start off harmlessly, but before long he starts adding invented details: non-stop dental hygiene shows on television, dog vaccinations at the post office--and the letters get longer and longer. Engaging, strange, and ultimately moving, this hilarious novel from Tilman Rammstedt won him the prestigious Ingeborg Bachmann Prize in 2008 and confirmed him as one of Germany's most compelling writers.
