Das neue Hörbuch von Katja Eichinger über den Sehnsuchtsort Côte d'Azur. Ultramarinblaues Meer, weiße Strandpromenaden, Palmen, Mimosen und ein einzigartiges Licht: die Côte d'Azur. Nirgends sonst ist die Dichte der Geschichten und der Künstlerinnen und Künstler, die sie verewigt haben, höher. Nietzsche war hier, Coco Chanel, Marlene Dietrich, Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, James Baldwin und die Rolling Stones. Ein Ort, an dem Extreme und Exzess, die Yachten und Bauten der Superreichen, die Glitterati und Easyjet-Touristen vor der unbeeindruckt bezaubernden Natur aufeinandertreffen.

In Bucharest, Romania's capital, Kaplan discovered that few Westerners were reporting on the country - one of the darkest corners of Europe during the Cold War. In an intense and cinematic travelogue, Kaplan explores the history and culture of the only country in the West where the leading intellectuals have been right-wing rather than left-wing; a country that gave rise to the dictator Ion Antonescu, Hitler's chief foreign accomplice during WWII; a country where the Latin West mixes with the Greek East, producing a fascinating fusion of cultures.

In prose as crystalline as his view to the Pyrenees on a clear day, Allman animates Lauzerte and its surrounding communities—Cahors, Moissac, Montauban—all ever in thrall to the magnetic impulse of Paris. Witness to so many dramas over the centuries, his house comes alive as a historical protagonist in its own right, from its wine-cellar cave to the roof where he wages futile battle with pigeons, to the life lessons it conveys. “The onward march of history, my House keeps demonstrating, never takes a rest,” he observes, pulling us vividly into his world.

"Non basta essere competenti storici dell'arte per descrivere i luoghi in cui Paolo Sorrentino ha ambientato le splendide scene del suo film 'La Grande Bellezza'. Bisogna conoscere la città in profondità e aver esplorato alcuni tra i suoi angoli più segreti e privati, che spesso non appaiono neanche sui libri." Costantino D'Orazio ha investigato per anni la sua città, ne ha scandagliato i luoghi magici e sconosciuti, ne ha scrutato l'anima invisibile ai turisti.

There are many ways to visit a city, and Florence, owing to its artistic richness, can be visited in many alternative tours. But surely one of the most interesting is represented by a stroll which, following Dante’s steps, leads us to see those religious and civic buildings, those private and public houses that form his city - the Florence that he so much loved and hated. What could be more fascinating than strolling in the ancient streets following the steps of its most famous citizen?
