In the fall of 1639, Roger Ludlow, a founder of the colony of Connecticut, led a small group of men and a large herd of cattle to the shore of Long Island Sound, where they established a settlement that became known as Fairfield. With this exciting new photographic history, the members of the Fairfield Historical Society have created a unique look back in time. More than 200 rare photographs in this book document the dramatic changes that have occurred in Fairfield's landscape and population during the last 130 years of its 350-year history. Agriculture dominated Fairfield's economy from its founding to the mid-nineteenth century. With the rise of neighboring Bridgeport as an industrial center in the 1860s to 1920s, laborers and business owners moved to Fairfield, and the once-rural landscape was transformed into suburban home lots. Today the town's population is a vibrant mix of commuters, local business people, and young families.

Elizabeth Bennet è carina, brillante, una perfetta ragazza da marito. Ma, a differenza delle sorelle e in barba ai consigli della madre, non smania per darsi in sposa al primo pretendente. Ha un sogno: vuole innamorarsi e - una vera eresia per i suoi tempi - sposare l'uomo che ama. Non sembra cosa facile, ma quando si presenta alla porta di casa Bennet un nuovo interessante vicino, il giovane Mr Darcy, il più appare fatto. Lui è bello, intelligente, pieno di fascino, eppure le cose tra i due non riescono a ingranare e tra fraintendimenti, pettegolezzi, reciproche incomprensioni sembra proprio che Lizzy e Darcy non vogliano rassegnarsi ad ammettere quello che i loro cuori hanno già perfettamente capito.

In the Atlantic Ocean, hurricane Helena is gathering strength, becoming the most powerful storm in recorded history. As Helena bears down on Bermuda, Donovan Nash, along with other members of the scientific research organization Eco-Watch, are called to fly in and extract key government people who have been studying Helena. For Donovan Nash, the routine mission turns deadly when an attempt is made on the life of the lead scientist. A woman from the past, Dr. Lauren McKenna, is suddenly thrust back into his life. With 300 mph winds and waves over 90 feet, Helena marches relentlessly for the vulnerable east coast of the United States. In a bold attempt to diffuse the power of the hurricane, Eco-Watch is called upon to conduct a final flight above the massive fury, where the jet suffers a catastrophic engine failure. Now the only option is to maneuver the crippled airplane into the calm of Helena's eye.

Scritti tra il 1843 e il 1848, i Racconti di Natale di Dickens costituiscono uno straordinario spettacolo narrativo metafisico e magico. Con queste storie animate da fantasmi, folletti e fate, l’autore affida alla scrittura il compito di rappresentare la qualità mutevole e fluttuante del reale, dimostrando la labilità del confine tra vero e apparente, la difficoltà di definire ciò che gli occhi vedono, di comprendere ciò che le parole dicono. Come nei suoi romanzi, anche qui Dickens svela l’altra faccia del mito del progresso, ritraendo l’Inghilterra della disoccupazione e del malessere sociale, Londra con le sue case fatiscenti e le sue strade degradate; la vita raffigurata non è però mai talmente cupa e disperata da non consentire spazi al sorriso o alla risata liberatoria, e attraverso personaggi e situazioni Dickens non perde occasione per scandagliare le possibilità del comico e del grottesco. Contro la realtà gretta e meschina, Dickens progetta le sue utopie natalizie, facendo ravvedere gli indifferenti e i malvagi, e, grazie all’intervento di spiriti benevoli, agli umili è consentito il lieto fine, in stanze rallegrate dall’agrifoglio, davanti a tavole stracolme di cibo.

Freshly graduated Master Physician Narsi Lif-Tahm has left his home in Anacleto and journeyed to the imposing royal capitol of Cieloalta intent upon keeping the youthful oath he made to a troubled writer. But in the decade since Narsi gave his pledge, Atreau Vediya, has grown from an anonymous delinquent to a man renowned for penning bawdy operas and engaging in scandalous affairs.

A physician is exactly what he needs. But with a relentless assassin hunting the city and ancient magic waking, Atreau fears that his actions could cost more than his own honor.

„Als Gregor Samsa eines Morgens aus unruhigen Träumen erwachte, fand er sich in seinem Bett zu einem ungeheueren Ungeziefer verwandelt. Er lag auf seinem panzerartig harten Rücken und sah, wenn er den Kopf ein wenig hob, seinen gewölbten, braunen, von bogenförmigen Versteifungen geteilten Bauch, auf dessen Höhe sich die Bettdecke, zum gänzlichen Niedergleiten bereit, kaum noch erhalten konnte. Seine vielen, im Vergleich zu seinem sonstigen Umfang kläglich dünnen Beine flimmerten ihm hilflos vor den Augen.“ In diese Ausgabe der berühmten Kafka-Erzählung wurde auch die Rückverwandlung des Gregor Samsa, die im Prager Tagblatt erschienene Fortsetzung der Erzählung aus der Feder des früh an Kehlkopftuberkulose verstorbenen Karl Brand (1895–1917), eines Bekannten Kafkas, mitabgedruckt.

Un classico americano, questo romanzo luminoso e inquietante segue Janie Crawford, una donna nera del sud negli anni '30, mentre si trasforma da ragazza libera e spensierata in una donna di indipendenza e sostanza. Questa storia d'amore poetica, radicata nelle tradizioni popolari nere e intrisa di realismo mitico, celebra audacemente la cultura e l'eredità afroamericana. La narrazione rende omaggio a una donna nera che, nonostante le restrizioni sociali, ha preteso di essere ascoltata. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1937, il libro ha ricevuto un'accoglienza critica mista ed è stato in parte dimenticato dopo la morte di Zora Neale Hurston. Tuttavia, è stato riscoperto da autori neri alla fine degli anni '60 e all'inizio degli anni '70, con il saggio di Alice Walker del 1972 "In Search of Zora Neale Hurston" che ha svolto un ruolo fondamentale nel reintrodurla a un pubblico più ampio. Oggi, è considerato un'opera fondamentale nella narrativa americana.
