Abstract: L’irresistibile racconto The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, da cui è stato tratto l’omonimo film del 2008, risulta ancora oggi attuale e ricco di spunti di riflessione. Anticipando il genere Fantasy, l’autore trascina il lettore nelle incredibili vicende di un uomo che nasce settuagenario e va ringiovanendo fino a raggiungere lo stadio dei primi giorni di vita. Le fasi vissute dal protagonista sono un alternarsi di momenti umoristici e amari, ma anche dolci e poetici. Il protagonista, nonostante l’assurdità del suo percorso di vita a ritroso, affronta tutte le esperienze proprie di un uomo: la scuola, l’università, l’amore, il matrimonio, la paternità, la guerra, gli affari.

Abstract: Welcome to 1984, the world of Big Brother! A world where the laws of nature obey the laws of the Party, where love is a crime and history is pure fi ction. You will never be alone here, not even with your own thoughts, as the telescreen keeps a vigilant eye on you. This is a world where choosing friends and trusting your family can be a choice between life and death. Winston Smith lives alone and works in the Ministry of Truth rewriting the past. But he writes the real truth in his diary hidden away from the telescreen. When he falls in love with Julia, he becomes a danger to the Party and soon learns what it means to be different. This book speaks to us today more than ever.

Abstract: These five famous O'Henry stories deal with the lives of ordinary people in a constantly changing New York City. Romance and humour abound in the lives of 'ordinary' folk. O. Henry has created characters that reveal in one way or another a true sense of dignity as they face their personal dramas. Love, forgiveness and tolerance flow through the heart of these stories and in the end there is always to be found poetic justice in the world. What has come to be known by readers worldwide as the 'feel good' factor. O. Henry's original style and irresistible humour together with his sympathetic portraits of the lost and the loved make him a joy to read.. (hoepli.it)
