Quando il sole muore, una scelta evocativa che richiama la fine della giornata passata a sopportare, subire, nascondere, giustificare, fingere. Ma con un sole che muore pu arrivare la riflessione, la consapevolezza, la reazione e l'incapacit di sopportare ancora. Con un sole che muore ci sar un nuovo giorno con un sole che sorge, l'arrivo della luce, con la possibilit di cambiare, migliorare, modificare una vita sofferente. Questa raccolta di racconti non vuole insegnare, bacchettare, portare ad esempio ma solo raccontare qualcosa, con le nostre esperienze, quelle sentite, quelle immaginate, quelle immagazzinate dai tanti notiziari sentiti negli anni. Ma non abbiamo ancora del tutto perso la speranza eh no Qui fra noi donzelle c' un signor uomo, il caro Osvaldo, che con la sua sensibilit ci ha stregato con i suoi libri precedenti. Lo accogliamo fra noi "femmine" con gioia e siamo liete di vedere che per il genere maschile c' ancora speranza. Il quartetto di racconti ordinato per argomento, iniziando con: Maria Antonietta Azara con il suo "Un avvocato di troppo", che tratta il difficile tema del lavoro per una donna.Annalisa Seveso con "Briciole di cuore", ci coinvolge nel delicato mondo delle quattro mura domestiche fatte di violenza.Maria Thea Chiodino con "Assemblea di condominio" che con una storia politamente "incorretta" ci mostra cosa pu succedere quando la rabbia viene repressa.E per ultimo, ma non perch uomo, Osvaldo Rossoni con "Murder in pink", racconto che racchiude in s gli elementi principali degli altri tre.
Since the historic joint announcement by U.S. President Barack Obama and Cuban President Ra l Castro on December 17, 2014 initiating a renewal of diplomatic relations between the two countries, after half a century of Cold War era strife, the world's attention has increasingly been focused on Cuba's people, immediate future and history. In this book, A Window Into Cuba's Soul, Amaria Rebiai takes her readers through an uncommonly personal journey into the lives of fifteen Cuban people as they navigate this impending momentous shift in their nation's history. Recounted through captivating photography and eye-opening stories, the poignancy of this photojournalistic work is enhanced by the fact that each of these fifteen individuals are connected in some way. They are family members, long-time friends, and close neighbors. The stories of their lives reveal the true history and current realities of Cuba in an incredibly intimate way. Ofelia, for instance, recalls an episode when the revolutionary figure Che Guevara came into her family's home in Santa Clara after being wounded in battle to seek treatment.

In this elegantly written study, Alfante explores the work of select nineteenth-century writers, intellectuals, journalists, politicians, and clergy who responded to cultural and spiritual shifts caused by the movement toward secularization in Spain. Focusing on the social experience, this book probes the tensions between traditionalism and liberalism that influenced public opinion of the clergy, sacred buildings, and religious orders. The writings of Cecilia Böhl de Faber (Fernán Caballero), Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer, Benito Pérez Galdós, and José María de Pereda addressed conflicts between modernizing forces and the Catholic Church about the place of religion and its signifiers in Spanish society. Foregrounding expropriation (government confiscation of civil and ecclesiastical property) and exclaustration (the expulsion of religious communities), and drawing on archival research, the history of disentailment, cultural theory, memory studies, and sociology, Alfante demonstrates how Spain’s liberalizing movement profoundly influenced class mobility and faith among the populace.
