Story
Life has its ups and downs. From the author of The Universe Versus Alex Woods comes a dark, painful, and witty novel about a woman whose life is spiralling out of control. You're going to find some of my actions frustrating. I'm hard to live with, maddening, uneven - I get that. But I can't stand around listing my faults, or we'll be here for ever. All I ask right now is that you indulge me. For as long as it lasts, this is going to be one hell of a ride.

Story
Der furiose Abschluss der Großen Freiheit-Trilogie von Schriftsteller-, Schauspieler- und Musikerlegende Rocko Schamoni. Sommer ‘86, ein junger Mann fährt nach Hamburg, um dabei zu sein. Er ist 19 und will Musik machen, die Jugend feiern, Künstler sein. Es zieht ihn nach St. Pauli, auf den Fixstern der Verrückten. Er will hinein in den Abgrund, »wo Feuchtigkeit und dunkle Wärme merkwürdige Organismen zum Tanzen bringen«. Er trifft die Zitronen, die Ärzte, die Hosen, die Neubauten – und sucht seinen eigenen Platz in dieser Welt.

Story
A razor-sharp portrait of a morally bankrupt and gleefully wicked modern man, Worst. Person. Ever. is Douglas Coupland's gloriously filthy, side-splittingly funny and unforgettable novel. Meet Raymond Gunt. A decent chap who tries to do the right thing. Or, to put it another way, the worst person ever: a foul-mouthed, misanthropic cameraman, trailing creditors, ex-wives and unhappy homeless people in his wake. Men dislike him, women flee from him.

Story
Oliva ha trent’anni, una passione segreta per gli snack orientali e l’abitudine di imitare Rossella O’Hara quando è certa di non essere vista. Di lei gli altri sanno solo che ha un lavoro precario, abita con i genitori e sta per sposare Bernardo, il sogno di ogni madre. Nessuno immagina che soffra di insonnia e di tachicardia, e che a volte senta dentro un vuoto incolmabile. Fa parte della vita, le assicura la psicologa, e d’altronde la vita è come il mare: basta imparare a tenersi in equilibrio sulla tavola da surf. Ma ecco arrivare l’onda anomala che rischia di travolgerla.
