Dall'Apocalissi festosa de L'ultimo capodanno dell'umanità alle peripezie del picciotto Albertino protagonista di Fango , i racconti di Niccolò Ammaniti mettono in scena i nuovi eroi di un'umanità borderline e metropolitana, capace di passare con leggerezza da una modesta aspirazione a un efferato delitto. Sono racconti che mescolano tutti i generi, dall'horror alla commedia all'italiana, trovando infine in una grottesca vena comica il vero elemento comune.

La politica è fare i conti con le cose come sono davvero: cioè spesso non belle e non pulite. Bisogna entrare nel fango, a volte, per aiutare gli altri a uscirne. Ma tenendo sempre lo sguardo verso l'orizzonte delle regole, dei valori, delle buone ragioni. Un dialogo appassionato e appassionante. Un prontuario per l'esercizio del pensiero critico, per sottrarsi alle manipolazioni, per riaffermare - contro ogni fanatismo - il valore laico ed emozionante della verità e dell'impegno politico. Perché l'avvenire appartiene ai non disillusi.

È in una di queste giornate che un uomo, Giugiù Nicotra, viene trovato morto in un cantiere, mezzo nudo, colpito da un proiettile alle spalle.

My name's Lyra Ridley, and I run headlong into supernatural danger for a living. When a criminal has magic too dangerous to merely lock up, we send them to a blackout prison. Hell would've been a better destination for this guy. As a lowly cop in the LVMPD's Rapid Response unit, I'm used to dealing with all kinds of dumpster-fire scenarios, from drunk salamanders on a building-melting bender and angry manticore landlords threatening to eat tenants' gallbladders in lieu of payment to human summoners calling up monsters from the deep to impress their girlfriends to name a few.

Perché tante stragi e delitti in Italia rimangono impuniti? La ricerca della verità è un percorso a ostacoli e in troppi casi, prima ancora di cercare i colpevoli, si è messa in dubbio la credibilità di chi accusava. È accaduto a Giovanni Falcone quando si disse che la bomba dell'Addaura l'aveva piazzata lui stesso e a Paolo Borsellino la cui agenda rossa, misteriosamente scomparsa, sarebbe stata un «parasole». Don Diana? «Era un camorrista.» Peppino Impastato? «Un terrorista.» La lista dei nomi infangati per distrarre l'attenzione dai delitti è lunga.

Jack London’s White Fang is an impactful examination of the harsh realities of nature and the damage humans can cause, but also of the will to survive that is common between humans and wild animals alike. The story follows White Fang, a feisty wolf pup that becomes a vicious wolf due to his interactions with harsh human masters. He is shuffled between masters throughout his life and taught to be destructive but is eventually shown love and compassion by a human and learns gentleness as an adult wolf.

White Fang is a novel by American author Jack London (1876-1916) - and the name of the book's eponymous character, a wild wolfdog. First serialized in Outing magazine, it was published in 1906. The story details White Fang's journey to domestication in Yukon Territory and the Northwest Territories during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush. It is a companion novel (and a thematic mirror) to London's best-known work, The Call of the Wild, which is about a kidnapped, domesticated dog embracing his wild ancestry to survive and thrive in the wild.
