Questa storia comincia una sera d’inverno, il 7 gennaio 1978. Davanti a una sede del Movimento sociale italiano nel quartiere Appio Latino, a Roma, vengono uccisi a colpi d’arma da fuoco due attivisti di destra. Da quel momento, i morti di Acca Larentia diventano icone intoccabili del neofascismo. Questa storia ricomincia il 30 aprile 1987, quando viene arrestato Mario Scrocca, un militante di estrema sinistra. Secondo gli inquirenti, Scrocca avrebbe fatto parte del commando che colpì ad Acca Larentia.

To You is an assortment of letters that reminisce what once was and holds dear to everyone left behind. On foreign land, these letters symbolized a home retold. They have no address or name attached, but they are written to you and are for you. Within them is a discovery of hope, of ease, of self-love that would prevail over the loneliness of being far and alone. When there came days when she could not confide in anyone, these pages were her voice, and now they are yours.

Letter writing is more than communication—it’s connection, reflection, and sometimes even transformation. A letter is a piece of yourself, preserved in ink and paper, that says, “I cared enough to take the time.” In a time of auto-corrected feelings and fleeting texts, A Life in Letters is a bold return to what’s real. Award-winning educator and storyteller Ronda Beaman shares the letters she never sent—but needed to write. Honest, heartfelt, and sometimes hilariously raw, these notes of recognition, regret, and release trace a life lived fully and felt deeply.

Tra il 1956 e il 1972, sulle pagine del Mondo, del Corriere della Sera, dell'Europeo, Flaiano ha costruito, articolo dopo articolo, aforisma dopo aforisma, un catalogo implacabile delle illusioni italiane. Il suo sguardo non risparmia nulla, nemmeno sé stesso: ironico fino alla ferocia, malinconico fino alla tenerezza, sempre troppo lucido per l'epoca che lo circondava. L'aforisma si fa racconto. Il frammento si fa tempo. E il tempo rivela ciò che di questi testi è insieme il dono e la condanna: tutto ciò che Flaiano scriveva sessant'anni fa sull'Italia sembra scritto stamattina.

De 1862 à 1865, Edmond et Jules de Goncourt consignent, jour après jour, leurs Mémoires de la vie littéraire. Ce deuxième volume s’ouvre sur un premier janvier endeuillé, où le souvenir des absents glace le cœur, puis nous fait gravir l’escalier jusqu’à la modeste chambre du cinquième d’une vieille cousine, Cornélie, assaillie de visites — dames, collégiens, parents, au point qu’il n’y a plus de sièges.

Men Through the Eyes of a Peon isn’t a self-help audiobook. It’s a survival manual soaked in engine grease, broken trust, and the kind of honesty that gets you kicked out of HR meetings. Told through the scorched voice of Johnny Mathews — a no-bullshit, ink-covered, shop-stained veteran with a pit bull named Angel and a fuse cut three inches too short — this is the story of modern manhood under siege.
