At the age of 64, legendary athlete Diana Nyad inspired the world when she walked onto the shores of Key West after "crossing the Mt. Everest of the earth's oceans", becoming the first person in history to make the 111-mile swim from Cuba to Florida without the assistance of a shark cage.

Welcome to Travers Corners, a dusty Montana town, where nothing much has happened since Herbert Hoover stopped for gas. Travers Corners, like most small towns, has no newspaper, no radio station; but here, large trout - no better than large trout, fictitious trout - await the angler. And apart from spreading gossip outside the McCraken’s General Store, the residents of Travers Corners love nothing more than fly fishing. Scott Waldie’s delightful cast of characters breathes life into this tiny, out-of-the-way town.

Story0
Charles Willeford was a man of letters in all senses of the word. Poet, essayist, short story writer, novelist, and raconteur, his early paperback novels with their existential/immobilized heroes were the creations (to paraphrase Chandler) of a man not himself immobilized - a man who, instead, with his trademark black-humored prose, doggedly examined the mind-thrumming banalities of our materially sated but intellectually befuddled postwar world, crafting a body of work that is only now, 50-some years after his first appearance in print, beginning to be widely appreciated.

The American Adrenaline Narrative considers the nature of perilous outdoor adventure tales, their gendered biases, and how they simultaneously promote and hinder ecological sustainability. To explore these themes, Kristin J. Jacobson defines and compares adrenaline narratives by a range of American authors published after the first Earth Day in 1970, a time frame selected as a watershed moment for the contemporary American environmental movement.

Most people associate storms and other big weather with death - with the kind of force that makes each of us wonder about life, time, and the nature of our surroundings. Some people go out looking for bad weather or go to places where they're likely to encounter it. Others have the misfortune of being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Still, the stories in Storm have more to say than that.

Questo delizioso racconto lungo di Edmondo De Amicis, ci offre un quadro tutto diverso dall’idea che possiamo esserci fatta dall’autore del libro Cuore. La storia, che si snoda tra personaggi descritti e tratteggiati da un bonario senso umoristico, ci porta nel mondo delle insegnanti e dell’ entusiasmo per la neo materia dell’educazione fisica che si stava diffondendo in quel periodo nella scuola italiana, anch’essa ai primi passi. Cornice musicale di Kevin Mac Leod.

Tom King, un boxeur australien sur le déclin se prépare pour un combat important contre l'étoile montante de la boxe, un jeune homme nommé Sandel. Mais Tom sait qu'il ne s'est pas bien préparé pour ce match. Il n'a pas pu manger à sa faim, ni s'entraîner autant qu'il aurait dû. Il rêve d'un bon bifteck pour lui donner de l'énergie, mais l'argent manque dans son foyer. Quand il était jeune, il se battait pour la gloire et le public hurlait son nom. Désormais, il se bat pour manger à sa faim. Le combat de King contre Sandel, c'est celui de la sagesse et de l'expérience contre la vitalité de la jeunesse.
