MY NAME IS PETE MALLORY and I used to play smart gun for a big-time operator named Macy Barr. But I quit. Now Macy's empire was crumbling and he needed me. I wanted no part of Macy. He knew it, too. But he also knew the reason I wouldn't say no. It was locked in his safe. I figured if I did this one last job for him we could make a deal. But the minute we got to his place I saw something I didn't figure on. She was small and blonde and there was a light in her eyes that made my blood run hot and cold. I backed off as if she breathed fire. If that dame ever got her hooks into me I'd never get ...

Il titolo ha diversi significati, in primo luogo indica la vita giovanile. A questo si aggiunge però il significato più profondo di una vita rinnovata dalla presenza miracolosa di Beatrice e dell'amore. Né si può escludere che Dante abbia voluto alludere alla novità e all'originalità dell'opera. Di recente, dopo la nuova edizione a cura di Guglielmo Gorni, che riproponeva la valenza del titolo "vita rinnovata dall'amore", è stato segnalato da Alberto Casadei[6] che "vita nova" è sintagma presente in Agostino, Tommaso e altri padri della Chiesa, e l'espressione "incipit vita nova" può ...

Io sono il dottore di cui in questa novella si parla talvolta con parole poco lusinghiere. Chi di psico-analisi s’intende, sa dove piazzare l’antipatia che il paziente mi dedica. Di psico-analisi non parlerò perché qui entro se ne parla già a sufficienza. Debbo scusarmi di aver indotto il mio paziente a scrivere la sua autobiografia; gli studiosi di psico-analisi arricceranno il naso a tanta novità. Ma egli era vecchio ed io sperai che in tale rievocazione il suo passato si rinverdisse, che l’autobiografia fosse un buon preludio alla psico-analisi.Gli audiolibri tratti da ...
