Story
This classic memoir of the First World War is now a major motion picture starring Alicia Vikander and Kit Harington. In 1914 Vera Brittain was 20, and as war was declared she was preparing to study at Oxford. Four years later her life - and the lives of her whole generation - had changed in a way that would have been unimaginable in the tranquil prewar era.

Story
A story of courage, unconventionality and lust for life. Vera Wasowski was just seven years old when German soldiers marched her family into the Lvov Jewish ghetto in Poland. She watched her father take his own life and her mother accede to sexual blackmail in order to ensure her and Vera’s survival. With unsparing honesty and the blackest humour, she recalls a world where the desire to survive was everything.

Story
Vlad Tepes, l'impalatore, nel XV secolo fu il principe della Valacchia, regione situata nel cuore dell'Europa Orientale. Personaggio leggendario per la sua ferocia e crudeltà, ben presto venne chiamato "Dracula", e cioè drago o demonio. Ma chi è stato veramente l'uomo che la cultura popolare prima e la letteratura gotica poi hanno reso immortale con il nome di Conte Dracula? Un paladino della sua nazione e della fede cristiana, oppure un pazzo sadico e feroce, un bestiale e sanguinario torturatore?

Story
Giulia Farnese, una donna che attraversa il tempo per trovare, in questo romanzo, il suo riscatto. La sua vera storia racconta di una donna che va molto oltre la figura di Sponsa Christi con cui è conosciuta in tutto il mondo. L'autrice tratteggia il profilo di una donna forte che, libera dalle pastoie di una famiglia che l'ha allevata all'ubbidienza, rinasce dalle sue ceneri e dalla damnatio memoriæ per divenire la mater e la domina del feudo di Carbognano.

Story
"L'ora segnata dal destino: Ricordi di un "volontario" universitario" è il resoconto dell'esperienza della seconda guerra mondiale, vissuta da un giovane diciannovenne, nutrito di studi classici e di ideali umanitari e libertari. La narrazione di una guerra "improvvisata", vissuta all'interno delle caserme, senza il filtro della retorica ufficiale del regime, è la testimonianza dell'assurdità, per certi versi anche tragicomica, di ogni conflitto. Al dramma delle vicende storiche si intreccia l'odissea di Gaspare, il protagonista, novello Ulisse.

Story
¿Quién fue realmente la Malinche? ¿Por qué ocupa un lugar tan importante en la historia, la identidad y la idiosincrasia de los mexicanos? La Malinche es una de las figuras fundacionales de la historia de México, pero su historia siempre ha sido objeto de polémicas y contradicciones. Intérprete y compañera de Hernán Cortés, ha sido deificada por algunos y satanizada por otros, ha inspirado tragedias, dramas románticos, crónicas, poemas y hasta caricaturas.
