NOW AN EMMY-NOMINATED HULU ORIGINAL SERIES • NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • LONGLISTED FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE • “A stunning novel about the transformative power of relationships” (People) from the author of Conversations with Friends, “a master of the literary page-turner” (J. Courtney Sullivan). “[A] novel that demands to be read compulsively, in one sitting.”—The Washington Post ONE OF ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY’S TEN BEST NOVELS OF THE DECADE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR: People, Slate, The New York Public Library, Harvard Crimson Connell and Marianne grew up in the same small town, but the similarities end there. At school, Connell is popular and well liked, while Marianne is a loner. But when the two strike up a conversation—awkward but electrifying—something life changing begins. A year later, they’re both studying at Trinity College in Dublin. Marianne has found her feet in a new social world while Connell hangs at the sidelines, shy and uncertain. Throughout their years at university, Marianne and Connell circle one another, straying toward other people and possibilities but always magnetically, irresistibly drawn back together. And as she veers into self-destruction and he begins to search for meaning elsewhere, each must confront how far they are willing to go to save the other. Normal People is the story of mutual fascination, friendship, and love. It takes us from that first conversation to the years beyond, in the company of two people who try to stay apart but find that they can’t.

Lolita
Vladimir Nabokov · 1989
Awe and exhiliration--along with heartbreak and mordant wit--abound in <b>Lolita</b>, Nabokov's most famous and controversial novel, which tells the story of the aging Humbert Humbert's obsessive, devouring, and doomed passion for the nymphet Dolores Haze. <b>Lolita</b> is also the story of a hypercivilized European colliding with the cheerful barbarism of postwar America. Most of all, it is a meditation on love--love as outrage and hallucination, madness and transformation.

The Metamorphosis
Franz Kafka · 2018
The Metamorphosis is a novella by Franz Kafka, first published in 1915. It has been cited as one of the seminal works of fiction of the 20th century and is studied in colleges and universities across the Western world. The story begins with a traveling salesman, Gregor Samsa, waking to find himself transformed (metamorphosed) into a large, monstrous insect-like creature. The cause of Samsa's transformation is never revealed, and Kafka himself never gave an explanation. The rest of Kafka's novella deals with Gregor's attempts to adjust to his new condition as he deals with being burdensome to his parents and sister, who are repulsed by the horrible, verminous creature Gregor has become.

My Year of Rest and Relaxation: A Novel
Ottessa Moshfegh · 2019
Named a Best Book of the Year by The Washington Post, Time, NPR, Vice, Bustle, The New York Times, The Guardian, Kirkus Reviews, Entertainment Weekly, The AV Club, & Audible A New York Times Bestseller • New York Times Readers Pick: 100 Best Books of the 21st Century “One of the most compelling protagonists modern fiction has offered in years: a loopy, quietly furious pillhead whose Ambien ramblings and Xanaxed b*tcheries somehow wend their way through sad and funny and strange toward something genuinely profound.” — Entertainment Weekly “Darkly hilarious . . . [Moshfegh’s] the kind of provocateur who makes you laugh out loud while drawing blood.” —Vogue From one of our boldest, most celebrated new literary voices, a novel about a young woman's efforts to duck the ills of the world by embarking on an extended hibernation with the help of one of the worst psychiatrists in the annals of literature and the battery of medicines she prescribes. Our narrator should be happy, shouldn't she? She's young, thin, pretty, a recent Columbia graduate, works an easy job at a hip art gallery, lives in an apartment on the Upper East Side of Manhattan paid for, like the rest of her needs, by her inheritance. But there is a dark and vacuous hole in her heart, and it isn't just the loss of her parents, or the way her Wall Street boyfriend treats her, or her sadomasochistic relationship with her best friend, Reva. It's the year 2000 in a city aglitter with wealth and possibility; what could be so terribly wrong? My Year of Rest and Relaxation is a powerful answer to that question. Through the story of a year spent under the influence of a truly mad combination of drugs designed to heal our heroine from her alienation from this world, Moshfegh shows us how reasonable, even necessary, alienation can be. Both tender and blackly funny, merciless and compassionate, it is a showcase for the gifts of one of our major writers working at the height of her powers.
Ensayo sobre la ceguera
José Saramago • 1995
Un hombre parado ante un semáforo en rojo se queda ciego súbitamente. Es el primer caso de una «ceguera blanca» que luego se propaga de manera fulminante. Internados en cuarentena o perdidos en la ciudad, los ciegos tendrán que enfrentarse a lo más primitivo de la naturaleza humana: la voluntad de sobrevivir a toda costa.<br/><br/>Con esas premisas, José Saramago traza una imagen aterradora y conmovedora de los tiempos de crisis. También, en el cruce de la literatura y la sabiduría, nos exhorta a los lectores a cerrar los ojos y ver más allá de las evidencias. Recuperar la lucidez y rescatar el afecto son dos propuestas fundamentales de una novela que es, además, una reflexión sobre la ética del amor y la solidaridad.
Un Mundo Feliz
Aldous Huxley • 1932
1984
George Orwell • 2021
Edizione originale in lingua inglese, con nota introduttiva in italiano<br/><br/>”Il potere non è un mezzo, è un fine. Non si stabilisce una dittatura nell’intento di salvaguardare una rivoluzione; ma si fa una rivoluzione nell’intento di stabilire una dittatura. Il fine della persecuzione è la persecuzione. Il fine della tortura è la tortura. Il fine del potere è il potere.”<br/><br/>Il romanzo, pubblicato pochi anni dopo la conclusione del secondo conflitto mondiale, è una spietata e profetica riflessione sul potere. È considerato una delle più lucide rappresentazioni del totalitarismo e anche uno dei primi e più importanti esempi di romanzo distopico. L’azione si svolge infatti in un futuro prossimo del mondo (l’anno 1984) in cui il potere si concentra in tre immensi superstati: Oceania (con capitale Londra), Eurasia ed Estasia. Al vertice del potere politico in Oceania c’è il Grande Fratello (“Big Brother”), onnisciente e infallibile, che nessuno ha visto di persona ma di cui ovunque sono visibili grandi manifesti. Il Ministero della Verità, nel quale lavora il protagonista Smith, ha il compito di censurare libri e giornali non in linea con la politica ufficiale, di alterare la storia e di ridurre le possibilità espressive della lingua. Per quanto sia tenuto sotto controllo da telecamere, Smith comincia però a condurre un'esistenza “sovversiva”.<br/><br/>“Big Brother is watching you”: con questo slogan l’autore britannico ha mostrato la propria lungimiranza, ponendo l’accento su uno dei temi più caldi al giorno d’oggi: il controllo del potere sull’opinione pubblica perpetrato mediante i mezzi di comunicazione. Pietra miliare della letteratura inglese, 1984 è uno dei romanzi più conosciuti e forse più controversi del secolo scorso. Un romanzo in grado di smuovere le coscienze e di portare il lettore a riflettere sul passato, sul presente e soprattutto sul futuro.<br/><br/>George Orwell è lo pseudonimo di Eric Arthur Blair, nato in India da una famiglia scozzese nel 1903 e morto a Londra nel 1950. Giornalista culturale, saggista, critico letterario, Orwell è oggi considerato uno dei maggiori autori di lingua inglese del Novecento.<br/><br/>Con nota introduttiva.<br/>Collana Il Disoriente - Luoghi della lettura
