Titoli in Commedia e umorismo

One of the most famous of all literary dogs, Flush was the golden cocker spaniel belonging to Elizabeth Barrett. In this charming and heartfelt biography, Viginia Woolf tells his story: his early days as Miss Mitford's puppy running across the fields in wild abandon and fathering another, then the years spent in his invalid mistress' bedroom in Wimpole Street.

Aneddoti, curiosità, segreti e retroscena di una delle commedie più famose, rappresentative e ironicamente dissacranti del cinema italiano. Con la prefazione di Max Tortora. La voce narrante è quella di Giorgio Gobbi, l'immortale "Ricciotto", l'aiutante del "sor marchese" nell'orchestrare scherzi e tiri mancini nella Roma ottocentesca insidiata dall'avanzare delle truppe napoleoniche. Ed è una voce ironica, a volte velata di malinconia, quella che racconta la genesi, i dietro le quinte, le vicissitudini che caratterizzarono il set de "Il marchese del Grillo".

At Blandings Castle trouble, as is often the case, rears its bothersome head to disturb the cosy peace. This is a collection of 12 stories for Wodehouse fans.

Italia, oggi. Una città morente avvolta dalla nebbia. Una bottega di erboristeria che si chiama Opus Magica in cui si vendono gli articoli più bizzarri e pericolosi del pianeta. Dietro il banco un uomo strambo e disilluso accoglie una composita clientela di altrettanta eccentricità: maghi, esorcisti, scrittori folli, forse anche fantasmi. Mentre le vie del centro sono sempre più invase dalla terrificante progenie dei Fratelli dell'Ombra. Una discesa negli incubi condivisi della provincia italiana che strappa la risata e non lesina sui brividi da elargire.

In Pigs Have Wings, affably potty Lord Emsworth is embroiled in a fierce pig-rearing battle with his obese neighbour, Sir Gregory Parsloe-Parsloe. Tossed in for good measure: romantic entanglements, some dubious detective work and a fearful dieting product called 'Slimmo'.

Emma (Pilar Fogliati) non cerca l’amore, anzi, è sicura di non meritarselo ed è per questo che finisce a letto con uomini improponibili, a cui nessuna darebbe neanche il numero. Ma in questo raffinato meccanismo di auto sabotaggio sentimentale qualcosa si rompe quando Emma incontra Matteo, un ragazzo così giusto per lei, da farla scappare a gambe levate. Perché se c'è una cosa da cui Emma vuole tenersi alla larga a tutti i costi è la felicità.

When Sam’s wife first tells him about Vitek, a twenty-first-century fertility lab, he sees it as the natural next step in trying to help their future child get a “leg up” in a competitive world. But the more Sam considers the lives that his child could lead, the more he begins to question his own relationships and the choices he has made in his life.

Master wit Mark Twain selected these 27 stories himself by 15 of his favorite 19th-century authors. The order follows that which Twain placed them in in the original anthology, published in 1888. He indulged his comic fancy rather than making a textbook in which all themes or authors are placed together, saying that "This way you will have to peruse the whole thing before discovering that one of your favorites is not included." Among others, you'll find: Artemus Ward, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Francis Lee Pratt, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Frederick W. Cozzens, and Twain himself.

As Wodehouse himself once noted, "Blandings has impostors like other houses have mice." On this particular occasion, there are two imposters, both intent on a dangerous enterprise. Lord Emsworth's secretary, the Efficient Baxter, is on the alert and determined to discover what is afoot - despite the distractions caused by the Honorable Freddie Threepwood's hapless affair of the heart.

Kevin Pace is working on a painting that he won't allow anyone to see: not his children, not his best friend, Richard, not even his wife, Linda. The painting is a canvas of 12 feet by 21 feet (and three inches) that is covered entirely in shades of blue. It may be his masterpiece or it may not; he doesn't know or, more accurately, doesn't care. What Kevin does care about are the events of the past.

Mr Stink, from Children's author David Walliams. "Mr Stink stank. He also stunk. And if it was correct English to say he stinked, then he stinked as well…” It all starts when Chloe makes friends with Mr Stink, the local tramp. Yes, he smells a bit. But when it looks like he might be driven...

Master storyteller and satirist Kurt Vonnegut was one of the most in-demand commencement speakers of his time. For each occasion, Vonnegut’s words were unfailingly unique, insightful, and witty, and they stayed with audience members long after graduation. As edited by Dan Wakefield, this book reads like a narrative in the unique voice that made Vonnegut a hero to readers and listeners of all ages. At times hilarious, razor-sharp, freewheeling, and deeply serious, these reflections are ideal for anyone undergoing what Vonnegut would call their "long-delayed puberty ceremony".

Perché un paladino in copertina? Certamente perché il racconto, intrigante e pieno di atmosfera, è ambientato in Sicilia - ma tranquilli, di dialetto ce n'è poco. Quanto basta, "come il sale", secondo una lettrice di Parma. Ma c'è un secondo motivo. In tutti i racconti tratti da "Pilipintò - Racconti da bagno per Siciliani e non", come in questo che state per ascoltare dalla mia voce, troverete trame e capovolgimenti di prospettiva.
