Prigioniero 325, campo Delta - Dai sobborghi di Lione a Guantánamo | Nizar Sassi usato Storia Biografie Diari e Memorie

Lione, giugno 2001. Nizar Sassi è un ragazzo come tanti altri, di una famiglia tunisina ben inserita nel tessuto sociale francese. La politica e la religione, come del resto la scuola, a Nizar non interessano granché e di Al Qaeda o Bin Laden non ha mai sentito parlare. Ma una passione vera il ragazzo ce l'ha: sono le armi. Così, malauguratamente, si lascia convincere da qualcuno a seguire un corso di addestramento e, mentendo alla famiglia, vola verso il Pakistan. L'11 Settembre, e quello che nelle settimane successive si scatena, sorprendono Nizar nel posto sbagliato al momento sbagliato. Il Pakistan chiude le frontiere e Nizar viene venduto alla Cia e spedito a Guantanamo...

The Voice of Pistoletto | Michelangleo Pistoletto, Alain Elkann usato Arte Storia e critica d'arte

The Voice of Pistoletto | Michelangleo Pistoletto, Alain Elkann usato Arte Storia e critica d'arte

A dynamic and far-reaching dialogue with one of Europe's most influential contemporary artists about his vision of unifying art and everyday life. In 2013, at the age of eighty, Michelangelo Pistoletto was the subject of a six-month exhibition at the Louvre in Paris. Here, in an insightful, passionate, and humorous dialogue with his interviewer, Alain Elkann, he reflects on his legacy. Illustrated with more than two hundred photographs of his life and work, The Voice of Pistoletto demystifies the story of the growth of an artist, candidly discussing his inspirations; his relationships with gallerists, critics, and curators of great renown; and the comparisons and critiques of his fellow contemporary masters, from Magritte to Picasso, Koons to Cattelan, Giacometti to Bacon. The result is a conversational collage that illuminates Pistoletto's own creative life and gives readers a privileged view of the history of contemporary art in general.

The complete poems | Randall Jarrell usato Narrativa Lingua Straniera

The complete poems | Randall Jarrell usato Narrativa Lingua Straniera

Poet, novelist, critic, and teacher, Randall Jarrell was a diverse literary talent with a distinctive voice, by turns imaginative, realistic, sensitive, and ironic. His poetry, whether dealing with art, war, memories of childhood, or the loneliness of everyday life, is powerful and moving. A poet of colloquial language, ample generosity, and intimacy, Jarrell wrote beautifully "of the American landscape," as James Atlas noted in American Poetry Review, "[with] a broad humanism that enabled him to give voice to those had been given none of their own."The Complete Poems is the definitive volume of Randall Jarrell's verse, including Selected Poems (1955), with notes by the author; The Woman at the Washington Zoo (1960), which won the National Book Award for Poetry; and The Lost World (1965), "his last and best book," according to Robert Lowell. This volume also brings together several of Jarrell's uncollected or posthumously published poems as well as his Rilke translations.

The divas analyze their roles, both vocally and dramatically, discuss choices in repertoire and reflect on their lives and careers. Matheopoulos interweaves her narrative with insightful and critical commentary, and peppers her profiles with remarks from conductors, directors, voice teachers, coaches and, on occasion, famous colleagues from the past. She also highlights changes in the opera scene, including the appearance in recent years of many talented Russian singers and the prominence of American-born divas during the last decade. Interviews include 14 sopranos, including Barbara Bonney, Renee Fleming, Angela Gheorghiu, Galina Gorchakova, Catherine Malfitano and Carol Vaness, and seven mezzos, including Cecilia Bartoli, Olga Borodina and Jennifer Larmore.

Tra gli sceicchi in batmobile - Un viaggio pop nel Medio Oriente sconosciuto | Richard Poplak usato Narrativa Straniera

Tra gli sceicchi in batmobile - Un viaggio pop nel Medio Oriente sconosciuto | Richard Poplak usato Narrativa Straniera

Due anni di viaggio, sedici nazioni, centinaia di incontri... Una fantastica odissea tra coloro che costruiscono il sogno americano per i figli del deserto: meccanici che creano Batmobili, poeti che adattano film e serie tv, supereroi in salsa turca e wargames in cui si riscrive l'intifada. Purché tutto sia "arabizzato". Ma come si trasforma Homer Simpson in Omar Shamshoon? E con Disney? Come fare con la storia del gobbo di Notre-Dame che si svolge in una chiesa? Nel viaggio si inciampa nelle tracce di Borat tra i kazaki, si scoprono i legami tra Lionel Richie e il Colonnello Gheddafi, si va ai concerti metal sfuggendo al pugno di ferro della polizia e si partecipa al conflitto tra Israele e Palestina a colpi di hip-hop. Dietro gli Osama bin Laden e gli Ahmadinejad, i nuovi mediorientali si sfidano a colpi di playstation, scaricano South Park, ascoltano Rihanna, fanno wrestling e guardano Friends. Omologazione o rivolta ai regimi totalitari? Un mondo di cui i giornali non parlano ma che affascina come un romanzo. Anzi come un film di Hollywood.

Fifth Avenue, 5 a.m. - Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and the Dawn of the Modern Woman | Sam Wasson usato Spettacolo Cinema

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“So smart and entertaining it should come with its own popcorn” – People“A bonbon of a book… As well tailored as the little black dress the movie made famous.” – Janet Maslin, New York TimesFifth Avenue, 5 A.M. by Sam Wasson is the first ever complete account of the making of Breakfast at Tiffany's. With a cast of characters including Truman Capote, Edith Head, director Blake Edwards, and, of course, Hepburn herself, Wasson immerses us in the America of the late fifties, before Woodstock and birth control, when a not-so-virginal girl by the name of Holly Golightly raised eyebrows across the nation, changing fashion, film, and sex, for good. With delicious prose and considerable wit, Wasson delivers us from the penthouses of the Upper East Side to the pools of Beverly Hills presenting Breakfast at Tiffany's as we have never seen it before—through the eyes of those who made it.
