Dieci storie di delitto e indagine: sono raccolti qui dieci eccellenti esempi del classico meccanismo "giallo" che mette in campo un misterioso sfuggente colpevole e, contro di lui, un investigatore che pazientemente raccoglie indizi e intelligentemente li collega per risolvere l'enigma. Mentre la suspense del duello tiene avvinto il lettore fino alla sorpresa finale. Dall'esemplare fondatore Arthur Conan Doyle all'attualissimo Stefano Benni, attraverso i grandi Agatha Christie e Dashiell Hammett, il geniale Gilbert K. Chesterton e il brillante Ellery Queen, le voci narrative sono tra le più felici del genere. I racconti sono stati scelti a misura dei giovani lettori, per dar loro, con il divertimento e il piacere del brivido, un'esperienza culturale veramente significativa.

Sedici disegni autografi di Roberto Bazlen - il diario della sua terapia psicoanalitica dell'immaginazione attiva fatta con Ernst Bernhard - sono il filo conduttore di Bazleniana, una raccolta di scritti a più mani che si propone come una passeggiata letteraria nei terreni cari al più portentoso e immaginifico talent-scout della letteratura novecentesca in Italia e come omaggio alla sua figura. Abbiamo dato a ogni autore un disegno, diverse voci del mondo che ruota intorno alla figura di Bazlen lo usano come spunto per esplorare la sua ricerca con il taglio della narrazione. Per raccontare la traccia che ha lasciato nella letteratura e nella loro vita, per tornare sui nodi che lui aveva individuato e portato allo scoperto, per completare uno dei tanti racconti evocati, suscitati o ripescati da Bazlen. Bazleniana è una raccolta di testimonianze letterarie: suggestioni e rimandi che vanno oltre i sentieri della filologia e tentano l’azzardo di trovare nuovi punti di accesso al caleidoscopio bazleniano: miti, racconti e storie che ci dicono anzitutto chi siamo.

& This is the 2003 edition of the venerable general interest and general readership encyclopedia that has been around since 1829 (!) and is cited in Books for College Libraries, 3d ed. and Guide to Reference Books ; since 1935, it's been revised annually, and the 2004 edition is due in March 2004.
