About this listen
In quella zona del basso Piemonte dove, anni dopo, sorgerà Alessandria, Baudolino, un piccolo contadino fantasioso e bugiardo, conquista Federico Barbarossa e ne diventa figlio adottivo. Baudolino affabula e inventa ma, quasi per miracolo, tutto quello che immagina, produce Storia. Così, tra le altre cose, costruisce la mitica lettera del Prete Gianni, che prometteva all'Occidente un regno favoloso, nel lontano Oriente, governato da un re cristiano.
Avventura picaresca, romanzo storico in cui emergono in germe i problemi dell'Italia contemporanea, storia di un delitto impossibile, racconto fantastico, teatro di invenzioni linguistiche esilaranti, questo libro celebra la forza del mito e dell'utopia.

Story
Tre redattori editoriali, dopo aver frequentato a lungo autori che si dilettano di scienze occulte, società segrete e complotti cosmici, decidono di inventare, con avventata leggerezza, un Piano. Ma qualcuno li prende sul serio. Affabulatorio, incalzante e coltissimo, è questo un romanzo che spazia furiosamente nel tempo, dove fanno la loro comparsa una sterminata serie di personaggi, di miti, di leggende, dai Templari ai Rosacroce, dai Miti Celtici ai Culti dell'antico Egitto, dal Santo Graal ai Vangeli Apocrifi, da Napoleone a Hitler, a Cagliostro.

Story
Tra le amare baldorie paesane in Piemonte e l'oziosa vita di spiaggia in Liguria, prendono corpo, in questo romanzo pubblicato nel 1942, i temi della narrativa pavesiana: l'amicizia, le radici, le descrizioni di paesaggi indimenticabili. Doro si è sposato, ha lasciato Torino per Genova e da troppo tempo non vede un suo vecchio amico, un professore più che trentenne. Ma in un giorno d'estate, Doro ritorna.

Story
Trent'anni dopo "Il nome della rosa" Umberto Eco torna a narrare un nuovo romanzo di ambientazione storica. Lungo il XIX secolo, tra Torino, Palermo e Parigi, troviamo una satanista isterica, un abate che muore due volte, alcuni cadaveri in una fogna parigina, un garibaldino che si chiamava Ippolito Nievo, il falso bordereau di Dreyfus per l'ambasciata tedesca, la crescita di quella falsificazione nota come "I protocolli dei Savi Anziani di Sion", che ispirerà a Hitler i campi di sterminio, gesuiti che tramano contro i massoni.

Story
"Che cos'è oggi la città per noi? Penso d'aver scritto qualcosa come un ultimo poema d'amore alle città, nel momento in cui diventa sempre più difficile viverle come città."(Da una conferenza di Calvino tenuta a New York nel 1983)
Città reali scomposte e trasformate in chiave onirica, e città diaboliche e surreali che diventano archetipi moderni di un testo narrativo altamente poetico.

Story
Annie has always had high hopes for her future. But the reality of her life just isn’t measuring up. She loves her fiancé, Greg–doesn’t she? She’s going to get her degree and open her own business–won’t she? Then, a strange old woman shows up outside her house, and she seems to know a lot about Annie. An awful lot. Annie could tell the old woman to get lost. Yet there’s something about her Annie just can’t shake. And what she learns could change her life forever–but is it the life she envisioned?

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Story
Who is Audrey Hoedemaker? It's a question her sister Maureen has heard more times than she can count, and she doesn't know what the short answer would be. Little sister, troubled teen, backpacker, musical theatre coach, con artist, childcare worker. Murderer. A tragic, traumatic childhood casts a long shadow on the Hoedemaker sisters. Maureen has worked hard to move beyond the violence of the past and build a good, honest life for herself. Audrey, however, just can't seem to do the same, careening from one state of chaos to another.
