El banquero anarquista (1922) es un relato de argumentación en el que la trama narrativa casi no existe en favor del juego dialéctico, la contradicción, la paradoja y la sutileza literaria. Todo se centra en dos personajes, de los que muy poco sabremos, sentados frente a frente, en un pequeño drama estático en el que uno de ellos trata de justificar mediante una cabriola lógica, llena de cargas de profundidad, su doble y sincera adscripción al auténtico anarquismo y al capitalismo más feroz.

"إن الولايات المتحدة تنظر بعين العطف إلى اتخاذ ( بابوا غينيا الجديدة ) موطنًا للعرب". كانت هذه هى كلمات جوناثان راينهارت نائب الرئيس الأمريكى، وبعدها بدأ تدفق العرب من الشتات إلى أرض الميعاد. أخيرًا سيكون لنا وطن يجمعنا.. لكن الأمر كان أعقد مما تصوروا.

When an elderly woman walks into a police station carrying a box with her husband's head inside, DC Melanie Cotton knows this is no ordinary case. It's her first murder investigation—and her chance to prove herself. But what begins as a grotesque domestic mystery quickly spirals into something far darker. As Mel digs deeper, she uncovers a web of organised crime, hidden identities, and long-buried secrets stretching back decades. With each step closer to the truth, the danger grows—and so does the body count.

¿Es posible ser a la vez un rico y ladino banquero y un anarquista consumado que lucha por la liberación de la sociedad? Según Pessoa, sí. Es lo que intenta demostrar El banquero anarquista , un sorprendente relato publicado en 1922. La producción literaria pessoana, como violenta suma de excepciones que es, nos enfrenta a menudo a la excepción de la excepción. Es insólita en verso y en prosa. Y lo es hasta el punto de que hay textos cuyo origen parece nescrutable.

Elena Fairchild is a teacher at one of the state’s new elite schools. Her daughters are exactly like her: beautiful, ambitious and perfect. A good thing, since the recent mandate that’s swept the country is all about perfection. Now everyone must undergo routine tests for their quotient, Q, and any children who don’t measure up are placed into new government schools. Instead, teachers can focus on the gifted.

Chi vive a Taranto è stanco di sentir parlare di Ilva, tanto nulla cambierà mai. Mezzo secolo fa la fabbrica ha strappato la città di pescatori alla povertà assicurando lavoro e benessere, e anche oggi la città di uomini pensa di non poter fare a meno della città di acciaio. Così, tutto diventa normale: la polvere nera si spazza via, il divieto di giocare nei parchi appare come una cautela eccessiva, i morti si seppelliscono. Si va avanti. È in questa Taranto malata e impotente che, nell'estate del 2009, fa ritorno Daniela Spera, dopo alcuni anni trascorsi a Parigi.

A Roma, nei dintorni del 1968, la rivoluzione ha il brivido di febbraio, la faccia di Mao e le note di Bandiera rossa eseguita da Claudio Villa. Gli insorti locali hanno intanto conquistato una rinomata trattoria del circondario, "L'Antico Girarrosto", dunque anche Velletri sta per capitolare. Peccato, proprio lì stava per aprirsi il banchetto di nozze di Serena e Canio, ragazzi di quartiere, appassionati di Drupi. Tra gli invitati, accanto a papà Stelvio, anche una maga di "sapienza etnisca" e Athanor, dobermann di provata lede neofascista, amatissimo dalla sposina.

The Committee pits friends against friends and threatens careers and lives in a struggle for the soul of a town, a university, and an ideal. Based on actual historical events and set against the backdrop of political, cultural, and class turmoil, this is a story of love - both licit and hidden - war, friendship, betrayal, compromise, and finally the necessity to stand firm against the encroachments upon freedom by men who believe they are doing God’s and the government’s righteous work.

On a mysterious green planet regenerated by fire, vibrant communities live in harmony with both its strange ecosystem and each other—until the day imperialist forces arrive.

They must forever travel to stay ahead of the walls of fire that approach like clockwork, bringing with them both loss and renewal.
