About this listen
La colpa e il desiderio di essere liberi in un romanzo di struggente bellezza.
"Io non lo so se sono favorevole al matrimonio. Per questo in strada vado sempre di corsa: il respiro dei maschi è come il soffio di un mantice che ha mani e può arrivare a toccare le carni".
Dopo "Il treno dei bambini", Viola Ardone torna con un'intensa storia di formazione. Quella di una ragazza che vuole essere libera in un'epoca in cui nascere donna è una condanna. Un personaggio femminile incantevole, che è impossibile non amare. Un rapporto fra padre e figlia osservato con una delicatezza e una profondità che commuovono.

Story
È il 1946 quando Amerigo lascia il suo rione di Napoli e sale su un treno. Assieme a migliaia di altri bambini meridionali attraverserà l'intera penisola e trascorrerà alcuni mesi in una famiglia del Nord; un'iniziativa del Partito comunista per strappare i piccoli alla miseria dopo l'ultimo conflitto. Con lo stupore dei suoi sette anni e il piglio furbo di un bambino dei vicoli, Amerigo ci mostra un'Italia che si rialza dalla guerra come se la vedessimo per la prima volta. E ci affida la storia commovente di una separazione.

Story
Pietro è un ragazzino di città, solitario e un po' scontroso. La madre lavora in un consultorio di periferia, e farsi carico degli altri è il suo talento. Il padre è un chimico, un uomo ombroso e affascinante, che torna a casa ogni sera dal lavoro carico di rabbia. I genitori di Pietro sono uniti da una passione comune, fondativa: in montagna si sono conosciuti, innamorati, si sono addirittura sposati ai piedi delle Tre Cime di Lavaredo.

Story
"Ho fatto male a comperare questo quaderno, malissimo. Ma ormai è troppo tardi per rammaricarmene, il danno è fatto": con queste parole inizia il suo diario Valeria Cossati, la protagonista di questo romanzo, una donna della classe media nell'Italia degli anni Cinquanta. Poco più di quarant'anni, due figli grandi, un marito disattento, un lavoro d'ufficio che svolge senza apparente passione, Valeria è assorbita dal ritmo "naturale" della quotidianità piccolo-borghese, schiacciata, senza quasi rendersene conto, tra i suoi ruoli di moglie, madre, impiegata.

"La paura finisce dove comincia la verità". Maria Cristina Palma ha una vita all’apparenza perfetta, è bella, ricca, famosa, il mondo gira intorno a lei. Poi, un giorno, riceve sul cellulare un video che cambia tutto. Nel suo passato c’è un segreto con cui non ha fatto i conti. Come un moderno alienista Niccolò Ammaniti disseziona la mente di una donna, ne esplora le paure, le ossessioni, i desideri inconfessabili in un romanzo che unisce spericolata fantasia, realismo psicologico, senso del tragico e incanto del paradosso.

Story
Ci sono romanzi che toccano corde così profonde, originarie, che sembrano chiamarci per nome. È quello che accade con "L'Arminuta" fin dalla prima pagina, quando la protagonista, con una valigia in mano e una sacca di scarpe nell'altra, suona a una porta sconosciuta. Ad aprirle, sua sorella Adriana, gli occhi stropicciati, le trecce sfatte: non si sono mai viste prima. Inizia così questa storia dirompente e ammaliatrice: con una ragazzina che da un giorno all'altro perde tutto - una casa confortevole, le amiche più care, l'affetto incondizionato dei genitori.

Story
Il colibrì è tra gli uccelli più piccoli al mondo; ha la capacità di rimanere quasi immobile, a mezz'aria, grazie a un frenetico e rapidissimo battito alare (dai 12 agli 80 battiti al secondo). La sua apparente immobilità è frutto piuttosto di un lavoro vorticoso, che gli consente anche, oltre alla stasi assoluta, prodezze di volo inimmaginabili per altri uccelli come volare all'indietro. Marco Carrera, il protagonista del nuovo romanzo di Sandro Veronesi, è il colibrì.

Il bel viso della bambina Giovanna si è trasformato, sta diventando quello di una brutta adolescente. Ma è proprio così? E in quale specchio bisogna guardare per ritrovarsi e salvarsi? La ricerca di un nuovo volto oscilla tra due Napoli consanguinee che però si temono e si detestano: la Napoli di sopra, che s'è attribuita una maschera fine, e quella di sotto, che si finge smodata, triviale. Giovanna oscilla tra alto e basso, in una città che pare non offrire né risposte né scampo.

"Tra i boschi e le pareti rocciose a strapiombo, giù nell'orrido che conduce al torrente, tra le pozze d'acqua smeraldo che profuma di ghiaccio, qualcosa si nasconde. Me lo dicono le tracce di sangue, me lo dice l'esperienza: è successo, ma potrebbe risuccedere. Questo è solo l'inizio. Qualcosa di sconvolgente è accaduto, tra queste montagne. Qualcosa che richiede tutta la mia abilità investigativa. Sono un commissario di polizia specializzato in profiling e ogni giorno cammino sopra l'inferno."

Story
Lucy Barton is recovering slowly from what should have been a simple operation. Her mother, to whom she hasn’t spoken for many years, comes to see her. Gentle gossip about people from Lucy’s childhood in Amgash, Illinois, seems to reconnect them, but just below the surface lie the tension and longing that have informed every aspect of Lucy’s life: her escape from her troubled family, her desire to become a writer, her marriage, her love for her two daughters. Knitting this powerful narrative together is the brilliant storytelling voice of Lucy herself.

Even through the roar and effervescence of the 1920s, everyone in New York has heard of Benjamin and Helen Rask. He is a legendary Wall Street tycoon; she is the daughter of eccentric aristocrats. Together, they have risen to the very top of a world of seemingly endless wealth—all as a decade of excess and speculation draws to an end. But at what cost have they acquired their immense fortune? This is the mystery at the center of Bonds, a successful 1937 novel that all of New York seems to have read. Yet there are other versions of this tale of privilege and deceit.

Heralded by the New York Times and Time as the couples therapy with the highest rate of success, Emotionally Focused Therapy works because it views the love relationship as an attachment bond. This idea, once controversial, is now supported by science, and has become widely popular among therapists around the world. In Hold Me Tight, Dr. Sue Johnson presents Emotionally Focused Therapy to the general public for the first time. Johnson teaches that the way to save and enrich a relationship is to reestablish safe emotional connection and preserve the attachment bond.

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.

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.
