"Se scrivo ciò che sento è perché così facendo abbasso la febbre di sentire". "Soares va scrivendo minuziosamente, con la maniacale puntigliosità del contabile, il suo diario: grandioso zibaldone fatto di journal intime, di riflessioni, di appunti, di impressioni, di meditazioni, di vaneggiamenti e di slanci lirici che egli chiama Libro e che noi potremmo chiamare romanzo" (dall’Introduzione di Antonio Tabucchi).

Dear Grumpy Horrible Boss, You suck as a lawyer. I don't even know how you passed the bar. Or how you sleep at night taking clients like Jack Whittington. Just in case you didn't know, you can't fire me just because I have a part-time job working bachelor parties. What I do on the weekend is none of your business and not a part of my employment contract. If I want to go back to wearing coconut bikinis and popping out of cakes, I can. As soon as I get my big break as an actress, I will be leaving your employ. I am literally counting down the days.

They say you can never go back… ‘Course, I never wanted to return. It took me years to age out. Once I made it, I took off and never turned around. Trust me, there were only three reasons I managed to survive there as long as I did and they abandoned me as soon as they were able. I’d like to say I didn’t blame them, but that would be a lie. I had zero desire to return. Yet here I was, on the road to Northland chasing a story cause my editor told me kids were disappearing… again.

Hudson Ashford, a former Navy SEAL turned private security expert, has sworn off romance—especially when it comes to his best friend’s sister.

The word 'angel' means 'messenger' and the title poem of this book, 'Angels Everywhere,' presents the idea that what I often glimpse is a flicker of glancing light, as if a heavenly being is darting in and out of my viewing, allowing me entry into a realm beyond my physical, experiential world—brief revelatory messages from somewhere beyond. I'm hoping that as you read these poems, (more than once, aloud if possible) something like Wordsworth's 'intimations of immortality' will enliven your own perceptions of the world as you experience it. Maybe your own fleet of angels will show up!

The Supreme Court and our Constitution are much in the news today, and with good reason. Progressives are deeply disturbed as a new conservative majority on the Supreme Court moves to reverse long-standing progressive precedents like Roe v. Wade, while conservatives remain keenly aware that their recent gains could easily be wiped away by a shift in political fortunes. This all raises a deeper issue - why is the Supreme Court deciding so many momentous issues? Regardless of your political persuasion, how you would vote on the following proposition:

Il commissario Carlo De Vincenzi, detto "il poeta del crimine", non ha mai amato la velocità: all'ossessione della sua epoca per i ritmi forsennati ha sempre preferito le placide camminate a piedi e la lettura di un buon libro. Forse per via di un incidente a cui ha assistito da ragazzo o forse perché, con il tempo, ha imparato che la pazienza è fondamentale per risolvere i casi più intricati. A volte servono anni per mettere in re-lazione eventi apparentemente distanti. Ma ne vale la pena.

Wenn die erste Begegnung mit Handschellen endete, dann war das kein gutes Zeichen. Schon gar nicht, wenn dir diese ein Cop anlegte. Mir war schon beim ersten Wort klar, dass Zane Black und ich nichts gemeinsam hatten. Er war ein Schnösel mit gutem Job, guter Familie und einem gefestigten Leben. Und ich? Nun ja. Ich war all das nicht. Aber dann brach um mich herum die Hölle los, und er war der Einzige, der mir helfen konnte ... Wenn Frauen Naturgewalten wären, dann wäre Lil Reynolds ein Wildfeuer. Rotglühend, faszinierend und wunderschön. Bei unserer ersten Begegnung machte ich alles falsch.
