Una de las obras capitales de Jack Kerouac, el escritor paradigmático de la Generación Beat. Ambientada en California, expone su descubrimiento del budismo y su primera ley, "la vida es sufrimiento", durante la época en que se sentía un fracasado al no encontrar editor para sus libros. Pero además de un modo filosófico de encarar el fracaso y de la búsqueda del auténtico significado –el Dharma– por parte de unos jóvenes desharrapados y febriles, Los Vagabundos del Dharma expresa la comunión con la naturaleza en la cima de altas montañas, la fraternidad y la poesía.

Story
Questa è la storia di Cosima e dell'anno più memorabile della sua vita, quello in cui compie diciott'anni e le succedono "tantissime cose per la prima o per l'ultima volta". Cosima è una sognatrice, fin da quando è piccola vive dentro i libri, anzi letterarizza tutto ciò che la circonda, e così anche le cose più squallide ai suoi occhi diventano poetiche e affascinanti. E lo stesso fa suo padre, un inguaribile idealista che affronta la povertà con allegria, mentre la madre lavora per mantenere tutta la famiglia e si dispera perché in paese si mormora che sono gente da poco, gentixedda.

Story
W tej opowieści nikt nie zginął, nikt nie został zamordowany, nikt się nie zakochał i nie zmarniał z tęsknoty. To opowieść o tym, że warto żyć i cieszyć się każdą chwilą, którą możemy spędzić z kimś bliskim. Cieszyć się tym, co mamy i tym, co możemy przeżywać. Łapać każdą chwilę i rozkoszować się nią zanim zniknie. I chociaż postacie bohaterek nie do końca są prawdziwe, trochę wyimaginowane i trochę przekoloryzowane, to jednak podobne do każdego z nas, kto chciałby spróbować czasem czegoś innego, czegoś nowego. Czy to potrawy, czy podróży, czy rozmowy z drugim człowiekiem.

Story
Young, brazen, beautiful, and unapologetically brilliant, Margaret Fuller accepts an invitation from Ralph Waldo Emerson, the celebrated Sage of Concord, to meet his coterie of enlightened friends. There she becomes “the radiant genius and fiery heart” of the Transcendentalists, a role model to a young Louisa May Alcott, an inspiration for Nathaniel Hawthorne’s Hester Prynne and the scandalous Scarlet Letter, a friend to Henry David Thoreau as he ventures out to Walden Pond . . . and a muse to Emerson. But Margaret craves more than poetry and interpersonal drama.

Story
Лоуренс начал писать Флейту Аарона в начале 1918 года, но отказался от работы после первых одиннадцати глав. Завершена книга была лишь тремя годами позже. Написанный сразу после Первой мировой войны, роман ставит под сомнение многие признанные социальные и политические институты того времени. Главный герой – флейтист Аарон, бежит из Англии в Италию, пытаясь понять природу политических и религиозных идеологий, сформировавших западную цивилизацию и найти свое место в жизни.
