Story69
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Story0
In Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, Tim McLoughlin draws upon his three-decade career in the criminal justice system with his characteristic wit and his fascination with misfits and malfeasance. A lifetime immersed in New York City feeds short stories that evoke a landscape of characters rife with personal arrogance and misjudgment; and nonfiction essays about toeing the line when the line keeps disappearing.

Perché un paladino in copertina? Certamente perché il racconto, intrigante e pieno di atmosfera, è ambientato in Sicilia - ma tranquilli, di dialetto ce n'è poco. Quanto basta, "come il sale", secondo una lettrice di Parma. Ma c'è un secondo motivo. In tutti i racconti tratti da "Pilipintò - Racconti da bagno per Siciliani e non", come in questo che state per ascoltare dalla mia voce, troverete trame e capovolgimenti di prospettiva.

In this series we listen to short stories that are NOT by perhaps the most well-known author of this type. But the many other rich talents in the volume may have treated the subject matter a little differently, or were perhaps just overlooked in the stampede to applaud the winner, but these authors are of equal merit.

If there's one thing the characters in Jennifer Makumbi's stories know, it's how to field an uncomfortable question. But perhaps the most difficult question of all is the one they ask themselves: 'You mean this is England?' Told with empathy, humour and compassion, these vibrant, kaleidoscopic stories re-imagine the journey of Ugandans who choose to make England their home. Weaving between Manchester and Kampala, this dazzling collection will captivate anyone who has ever wondered what it means to truly belong.

Scott Fitzgerald schrieb diese Kurzgeschichten in den letzten Monaten vor seinem Tod. Sie sind eine faszinierende Selbstsatire, die seine Hollywood-Jahre zum Leben erwecken. Der Schauplatz: Ein großes Filmstudio; die Figur: Pat Hobby, ein abgehalfterter Drehbuchautor, der ständig versucht, wieder ins Showgeschäft einzusteigen, aber mehr Glück empfindet, wenn er in den einschlägigen Bars in der näheren Umgebung herumhängen kann. Die siebzehn Pat-Hobby-Geschichten wurden zwischen 1940 und 1941 veröffentlicht, als F. Scott Fitzgerald für die Universal Studios arbeitete.

Questa famosa raccolta di racconti vuole offrire uno spaccato dell’esperienza dublinese di Joyce. I quindici racconti restano sospesi nella nebbia della città, cogliendo delle istantanee nella vita dei suoi personaggi, offerte così, senza un inizio o una fine nel senso stretto della parola. Dal racconto più lungo, I morti, è stato tratto un film.

"Al mattino la superficie del fiume splende come se migliaia di fogli d'oro stropicciati scorressero sull'acqua." Sei bozzoli di preziosa seta esistenziale. Sei fili tesi dal destino. Sei racconti intorno al tempo, alla guarigione, al fato. Sei racconti tessuti in una Tokyo sfolgorante di luci notturne e pulsante di vita. Tutti feriti, chi da un trauma infantile, chi da un abbandono, chi da una storia d'amore tormentata, i protagonisti si sono chiusi in un guscio che li protegge ma insieme li separa dal mondo.

Stefan Zweig was born on the 28th November 1881 in Vienna, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and into a wealthy Jewish family with interests in banking and textiles. Zweig first published in 1900 and two decades later was a popular and highly regarded author in many parts of the world, although not in England. He was also the librettist with Richard Strauss of two operas and a keen collector of autographed musical manuscripts. His collection of over two hundred pieces was later donated to the British Library.

Story0
Storie viste dal marciapiede, dal basso di chi nei luoghi sta. Cartoline, brevi lettere, trenta racconti scritti come si fa quando si parte per davvero e si racconta una storia a qualcuno che si ama. Con lo stesso titolo era già uscito un altro racconto di Erri De Luca, alla fine degli anni Novanta. In quell'edizione c'erano le storie dei suoi viaggi nella Bosnia in guerra, nel pieno della Guerra civile jugoslava. In questo altro Pianoterra quelle storie non ci sono quasi più. Resta però identica la prospettiva di chi guarda. Perché questo audiolibro è un "atto di residenza".
