In sports, not all the long shots who succeed are athletes. In 1984, Tom Hammond, a forty-year-old sportscaster who had primarily worked in Kentucky and the Southeast, got an unlikely opportunity to appear on the NBC Sports telecast of the inaugural Breeders' Cup.

Scott McIntyre has lived the story of Canadian book publishing. Beginning his career at McClelland & Stewart in 1967, he went on to cofound his own publishing house, Douglas & McIntyre, in 1970 and made his mark on the industry amid the country’s exhilarating literary coming-of-age.

In Blitz, Elms reflects on a club night founded by working-class kids, one whose impact reverberated beyond its doors, through the worlds of Art, Literature, Fashion and Music, and into the present day.

A partire dagli episodi della sua vita famigliare, personale e professionale e con lo sguardo attento ai cambiamenti che stano stravolgendo la nostra immagine del mondo, Sallusti mostra in questo libro il punto di vista eretico di un liberal-conservatore abituato a sentirsi minoranza - spesso irrisa - nei salotti buoni della cultura dominante, e tuttavia consapevole di essere in sintonia con la maggioranza delle persone in Europa e in Occidente, come le elezioni si incaricano invariabilmente di dimostrare.

James Bond was born and would go on to become one of the most successful, enduring and lucrative creations in literature.

«Una notte ho sognato un demone che mangiava i libri di casa mia.» E al risveglio, questo sogno diventa per l'autore un rovello: un ipotetico demone come sceglierebbe i titoli da aggredire? E quali sarebbe necessario salvare?

Al principio del ventesimo secolo, a seguito di una crisi di colera che devastò Napoli, la giornalista Matilde Serao volle raccontare al mondo il "ventre" della città, quei quartieri popolari abitati da schiere di poveri costretti all'antica e ingegnosa arte del tirare a campare.
