Che c'è di più importante che costruirsi un impero, investendo le proprie energie? Pazienza se poi la vitalità investita nel perseguimento del proprio obiettivo, lascerà un nullo margine per altre risorse e l'aridità più completa governerà la vita di Stefano. Tuttavia la madre non ci sta. La donna, la cui vita si è evoluta nell'amore, non può permettere che il suo unico, amato figlio, rinunci a ciò che di essenziale per la propria completezza esiste a questo mondo; l'amore. E quando porrà il suo incontestabile ultimatum, Stefano dovrà decidere se assecondare la sua iniziativa o interrompere ogni contatto con lei, privandosi dell'unica forma d'amore a lui conosciuta. La scelta sarà ardua, l'inevitabile resa, difficile da accettare, e Stefano opporrà la propria ferrea ostinazione per non essere trascinato nel vortice, fino allo scontato epilogo. Un romanzo frizzante come pregiato champagne, energico e divertente, che cattura il lettore con la disinvolta, moderna appagante e godevole, orditura descrittiva.

Several restaurant workers are murdered by a robber, whose brother is killed by police during the chaotic event. As everyone struggles to heal after the incident, the gunman is determined to kill everyone involved in his brother's death.
In the half-century following Pavese's death, much that was written about him sought principally to understand and define his complex character, and to determine his place within the twentieth-century Italian literary canon. Latterly, there appears to have been a significant shift in focus towards a closer reading of individual works or aspects or periods of his writing, the better to analyse and reveal the subtleties and depth of his vision. This present collection of ten essays conforms broadly with this tendency. It is organised chronologically with regard to Pavese's life and works so as to convey a sense of the development of a writer, over and above the particular concerns of any given essay. The book features contributions from many leading experts on Pavese.

St. Sabas (439-532 CE), was one of the principal leaders of Palestinian monasticism, that had flourished in the sixth century in the desert of Jerusalem. As an abbot he was the first in Palestine to formulate a monastic rule in writing, and his activity as an ecclesiastical leader bore upon the life of the entire Christian community in the Holy land. He and his monks were active in the theological disputes that affected the fate of the Christian Church of Palestine, and shaped it as a stronghold of Orthodoxy. But his activity has transcended his place and time. His largest monastery - the Great Laura (Mar saba), functioned from the sixth to the ninth century as the intellectual centre of the...
