George Orwell transforma una simple historia de animales en una advertencia eterna.

Fedele ai versi di Jorge Luis Borges, Nuccio Ordine ci invita a sperimentare la stessa umile fierezza suggerendoci di leggere (e rileggere) alcune delle più belle pagine della letteratura mondiale. Dopo "L'utilità dell'inutile", tradotto in 26 paesi, Ordine prosegue la sua battaglia per i classici, nella convinzione che un breve testo (illuminante e fuori dai sentieri battuti) possa suscitare la curiosità dei lettori e incoraggiarli a immergersi nell'intera opera.

A tender love story, a serpentine villainess, a glittering setting in London society, and a showering of Wildean witticism are only a few of the reasons why this play has enjoyed hugely successful revivals in London, in New York, and on the silver screen. This 1895 drama is eerily prescient, as it examines the plight of a promising politician, desperate to hide a secret in his past. With empathy and wit, Oscar Wilde explores the pitfalls of holding public figures to higher standards than the rest of us.

No conto "O ideal da condessa", uma fina ironia move Valentim Magalhães na caracterização da condessa, constituída sobre a própria narrativa – nada mais do que a substituição de um amante por outro, sem que nenhum lhe satisfaça. Já em "Objeto de amor", o leitor encontra um daqueles exemplos crus de textos realistas – praticamente uma pintura escrita, a expor a tormenta do personagem Eduardo.
