Story
Gemma, la donna di cui Dante non scrisse mai. Che tempra deve aver avuto, questa fiorentina che nessuno ricorda? Sposa, per amore, un uomo sconsigliabile: non ricco, privo di potere politico e per di più poeta. Non si lascia sgomentare quando lui si trova sul fronte sbagliato, in una Firenze in cui la lotta aspra tra fazioni distrugge vite e patrimoni.

Story
Teresa non si sarebbe mai aspettata di innamorarsi di Alessandro Manzoni ancora prima di incontrarlo di persona. Eppure, non è tipo da perdere la testa facilmente: è una giovane vedova benestante con un figlio, una posizione sociale, una cultura che le permette di brillare nei salotti della Milano ottocentesca. Così quando anche lui rimane vedovo della prima moglie Enrichetta, stroncata dall’ennesima gravidanza, un amico devoto combina un incontro galeotto durante una prima della Scala.

Story
Il primo incontro con Fellini avviene sul set di 8½, dove la madre di Marina, Caterina Boratto, è stata presa per interpretare la Signora Misteriosa, ruolo che segna il suo ritorno alle scene dopo un lungo periodo di assenza. Subito tra la sedicenne Marina e il regista scatta un’affinità. Benché sia per natura diffidente con gli altri, e ancor più verso una personalità istrionica e sfuggente come quella di Fellini, Marina si lascia affascinare dal mondo del cinema e prende a frequentare il Teatro 5 di Cinecittà.

C’è davvero un tesoro nascosto sull’isola?

Story
Nata in un giorno di pioggia e di presagi, Virdimura porta il nome del muschio che affiora tenace dalle mura di Catania e della sua nascita non sa quasi nulla. A crescerla è suo padre, il maestro Urìa, medico ed ebreo, "il più alto dei giudei, il più forte, il più santo". Un uomo che conosce i segreti delle spezie e i progressi delle scienze, che parla molte lingue, che sa che da tutto bisogna imparare: dalla natura, dalla strada, dalla poesia. A Virdimura insegna a guarire sia i corpi sia le anime, senza distinguere tra musulmani, cristiani o ebrei.

Story
"Il Muto di Gallura" è un personaggio a dir poco leggendario, probabilmente il più famoso dei "banditi vendicatori" dell'Ottocento sardo. Sebastiano Tansu Addis, questo il vero nome del "muto", era popolarissimo già in vita e venne reso immortale dal romanzo storico di Enrico Costa, un bestseller di fine '800. Una storia pazzesca, quella del Muto, tanto che fece sorgere vere e proprie leggende. Oggi, finalmente, questa incredibile vicenda è diventata anche un audiolibro, grazie all'adattamento e alla messa in voce magistrale di Gaetano Marino.

In questo discorso in forma di racconto (che, come è noto, fu redatto tra il 1886-1888 e il 1891, anno della morte dell'autore, e uscì nella prima edizione soltanto nel 1924) infatti Billy dà vita alla figura angelicata di colui che sempre e comunque subisce e subirà il torto, l'ingiustizia, la prepotenza, l'illegalità (per dirla melvillianamente, le mire del maligno su questa terra).
