Un romanzo intenso, carico di emozioni forti, dal ritmo cadenzato.Una storia di violenza domestica, di abusi psicologici che vi afferreranno allo stomaco.Misia, una giovane donna, e la sua vita monocromatica che passo dopo passo si tingera sempre piu di nero, un nero che sa di tristezza, di paura, di lutto.E in una escalation di violenza, quando la situazione sembrera divenire irreparabile, impossibile da sopportare, la soluzione sembrera essere solo unaMa la vita a volte riesce a sorprendere, e seppure questo non rappresentera unequa ricompensa dei mali subiti, forse con il tempo riuscira a mitigare i ricordi smorzando spigoli vivi ed aprendo un isperato spiraglio di luce.Ognuna di noi merita una vita a colori, merita di essere finalmente artefice del proprio destino, senza soccombere piu, per essere finalmente libera di amare, di amarsi.

In un mondo immaginario, ma perfettamente realistico e credibile, due Civilta si scontrano in un turbinio di eroi e guerra. Lottima descrizione delle battaglie e laccurata ricostruzione geografica ed antropologica compensano ampiamente lassenza di elementi fantasy. Ne "I due Imperi" la geopolitica diventa avventura.

First performed in 1877, "The Pillars of Society" was Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsens first successful realist drama.Karsten Bernick is the dominant businessman in a small coastal town in Norway, with interests in shipping and shipbuilding in a long-established family firm. Now he is planning his most ambitious project yet, backing a railway which will connect the town to the main line and open a fertile valley which he has been secretly buying up. Suddenly his past explodes on him with the arrival of Lona Hessel, the woman he once jilted, and Johan Tonnesen, who left town in disgrace fifteen years earlier...

"The Merry Wives of Windsor" is a comedy by William Shakespeare first published in 1602, though believed to have been written in or before 1597. The Windsor of the plays title is a reference to the town of Windsor, also the location of Windsor Castle, in Berkshire, England. "The Merry Wives of Windsor" contains two important plotlines. The plays funniest plotline is the conflict between Sir John Falstaff and the two merry wives (Mistress Ford and Mistress Page). The storys other major plotline deals with three suitors (Slender, Doctor Caius and Fenton), all of whom wish to win Anne Pages hand in marriage.Of all Shakespeares comedies, "The Merry Wives of Windsor" is the one that most resembles a modern sitcom. The play focuses on mostly middle-class characters, none of the characters are ever in mortal danger, it is written almost entirely in prose and it employs a great deal of low comedy. Low comedy is the stuff of slapstick, pratfalls, outrageous accents, sight gags and Three Stooges-style physicality. "The Merry Wives of Windsor" has lots of this. In fact, most of the action that drives the plot of this play is based on "Mistress Ford and Mistress Page" concocting various schemes toward the purpose of embarrassing Sir John Falstaff.

"Pericles, Prince of Tyre" is a late romantic comedy by William Shakespeare. Written around 1606, the play follows Pericles, Prince of Tyre, on his journey to be reunited with his family after a storm at sea separates everyone. The play did not appear in Shakespeares First Folio, suggesting the editors did not believe he wrote the whole play. It is now generally accepted that Shakespeare wrote most of it, but he received help from other playwrights. Widely credited for helping to create the romantic comedy genre, many of Shakespeares plays have been adapted into TV and film.Each act in "Pericles, Prince of Tyre" is introduced by the ghost of John Gower, an English poet. An offstage narrator delivering prologues and additional information was a common theatrical device at the time.

"The Warriors Barrow" (or, "The Burial Mound") was Henrik Ibsens second play and his first play to be performed. Written in 1850 when Ibsen was 22 years old, the play was first performed at the Christiania Theater on 26 September 1850, under Ibsens pseudonym Brynjolf Bjarme."The Warriors Barrow" is a one-act dramatic poem that portrays an incident from the heroic age of Norse conquest.Landing on an island off the coast of Sicily, Gandalf, a young pagan chieftain who personifies the rough Viking tradition, confronts the tempering Mediterranean influence of Christianity in young, innocent Blanka. Sworn to avenge his fathers death, Gandalf learns Blanka has in fact saved his life, and he subsequently returns to Norway with her so that her faith may be "transplanted in the north."Henrik Johan Ibsen was a major 19th-century Norwegian playwright, theatre director, and poet. He is often referred to as "the father of realism" and is one of the founders of Modernism in theatre.

Originally titled Vildanden in Norwegian, "The Wild Duck" is an 1884 play by Norwegian author Henrik Ibsen. This work is by many considered Ibsens finest work, and it is certainly the most complex. "The Wild Duck" had its debut in Norway in 1885, and its first production in English opened on Broadway at New York Citys Plymouth Theatre in 1918."The Wild Duck" tells the story of Gregers Werle, a young man who has a compulsion to tell the truth at all costs and reveals to the Ekdal family certain unasked-for information about each family members past. The knowledge destroys their illusions and their family life...Ibsen is considered to be the father of realism and was a major force in bringing modernism to the theatre. His most famous play, "A Dolls House", was the most performed play worldwide by the start of the twentieth century.
