Lì incontra il suo suggeritore, Nikita, che vive in un camerino. I due ricordano gli anni della loro giovinezza e ripercorrono la gloriosa carriera di Svietlovidov, ormai anziano e malato, recitando brani delle opere teatrali che furono i suoi cavalli di battaglia durante una lunga carriera, che volge ormai verso un inesorabile declino.Il canto del cigno è un’audiolibro della collana LibriVivi Palco.

In September 2016, the provocative essay "The Flight 93 Election" galvanized many voters by spotlighting the stakes ahead in November and reproaching complacent elements of the Right. Its author, Michael Anton - writing as "Publius Decius Mus" - addressed the main criticisms of his argument soon afterward in a "Restatement on Flight 93". A new criticism emerged that he had painted a dire scenario to be averted, but no positive vision.  Here, Anton presents the positive ideal that inspired him - a distillation of his thinking on Americanism and the West, refined over decades.

These words can affect us physically, they can engage our emotions and even in their sadness bring a lump to our throat and tears to our eyes. Sometimes the relief can be palpable. Our authors, from Anton Chekhov, Stephen Crane, Willa Cather, Katherine Mansfield and a wealth of others, are well aware of what their talents will evoke. Genius has many names.

In this collection of short stories some of our most popular and well-known authors are grouped together with an unfortunate tag: dead at 44. These authors are not run-of-the-mill or ten a penny; they are literary leviathans who left enduring works of literature and sadly may have left us many more had they lived. We will never know.

In Altötting, dem katholischen Epizentrum Deutschlands, wird Frömmigkeit noch großgeschrieben. Nur für Dr. Spögler gilt das nicht mehr. Denn der Tierarzt liegt tot vor der Brauerei. Spögler wollte mit seinem Bolzenschussgerät den vorhergehenden Abend seiner Stammtischrunde etwas auflockern. Ein anderer hat offenbar die Gunst der Stunde genutzt und ihn damit getötet.

An award-winning audiobook narrator and producer reads Anton Chekhov's "The Beggar", a moral tale in which the arrogant and self-righteous lawyer thinks he has "saved" the beggar by teaching him how to work for a living. In fact, he would have never continued the original task (or even begun it) if it weren't for the example of the lawyer's compassionate cook, who quietly chopped the wood for him without expecting anything in return. It was Olga's example of self-sacrifice, not Skvortsoff's example of "do-goodism" that inspired the man to change his life.
