" Et puis, qu'est-ce que ça veut dire, différents ? C'est de la foutaise, ton histoire de torchons et de serviettes. Ce qui empêche les gens de vivre ensemble, c'est leur connerie, pas leurs différences. " Camille dessine. Dessinais plutôt, maintenant elle fait des ménages, la nuit. Philibert, aristo pur jus, héberge Franck, cuisinier de son état, dont l'existence tourne autour des filles, de la moto et de Paulette, sa grand-mère. Paulette vit seule, tombe beaucoup et cache ses bleus, paniquée à l'idée de mourir loin de son jardin. Ces quatre là n'auraient jamais dû se rencontrer. Trop perdus, trop seuls, trop cabossés. Et pourtant, le destin, ou bien la vie, le hasard, l'amour -appelez ça comme vous voulez -, va se charger de les bousculer un peu. Leur histoire, c'est la théorie des dominos, mais à l'envers. Au lieu de se faire tomber, ils s'aident à se relever.

Drug lord Miguel Angel Barrera is head of the Mexican drug federación, responsible for millions of dollars worth of cocaine traffic into the US and the torture of those who stand in its way. His nephew, Adan Barrera, is his worthy successor. Art Keller is a US government operative, so determined to obtain revenge for a murdered colleague that his pursuit of the cartel veers dangerously towards an obsession outside the law. This is a world characterised by its brutality, yet all Winslow''s incredibly varied cast - including a high class prostitute, an Irish hitman and a charismatic Catholic priest - are all in their own ways searching for salvation. Don Winslow''s masterpiece is not only a page-turning thriller but also a rich and compelling novel in the league of an Ellroy or Delillo.

Primo, clamoroso caso di "bestseller" della letteratura, in oltre sei secoli il Decameron ha influenzato scrittori, pittori, musicisti, coreografi, registi. Scritto, non a caso, "nel mezzo del cammin" della sua vita, corona con il sigillo del capolavoro l'esperienza giovanile di Boccaccio, racchiudendo in un'opera vasta e unitaria tutto il fascino della materia amorosa e dell'avventura umana che caratterizza i primi scritti. Nel rielaborare retoricamente una vasta tradizione di racconti e nel dare loro la lingua raffinata di una prosa che sara per secoli esemplare, Boccaccio costruisce la godibilissima epopea di un'Italia percorsa e dominata dall'audacia mercantile della borghesia ma non dimentica dei valori cavallereschi: il poema dell'autunno del Medioevo, scintillante come non mai dei fulgori di uno splendido tramonto.
