I dannati attribuiscono alle mogli la causa della loro perdizione. Una scusa o la verità? Per scoprirlo, all'inferno si decide di mandare sulla terra un diavolo. Il malcapitato scelto per sperimentare la condizione del matrimonio è Belfagor arcidiavolo, che scoprirà le gioie e soprattutto i dolori dell'amore... L'argomento di questa divertente favola, che salda il tema misogino con quello della furbizia contadina, è tutt'altro che originale. Ma se Machiavelli si pone alla fine di un lungo percorso, con il suo genio demoniaco egli riesce a portare anche questo soggetto lungamente esplorato nei suoi territori, mostrandoci un Plutone principe saggio degli Inferi e ribaltando, ancora una volta, i valori della morale e della politica astrattamente concepite. In appendice si pubblica una storia di possessione demoniaca finora pressoché sconosciuta: Storia di uno spirito in una fanciulla.

Da tutto il Giappone vi convogliano ogni anno migliaia di persone che hanno perduto qualcuno, che alzano la cornetta per parlare con chi è nell'aldilà. Quando su quella zona si abbatte un uragano di immane violenza, da lontano accorre una donna, pronta a proteggere il giardino a costo della sua vita. Si chiama Yui, ha trent'anni e una data separa quella che era da quella che è: 11 marzo 2011. Quel giorno lo tsunami le sottrasse la gioia di essere al mondo. Ma quando a Bell Gardia Yui incontra Takeshi, la sua vita prende un corso inaspettato. Per rimarginare le ferite di un'esistenza servono coraggio, fortuna e un luogo comune in cui dipanare il racconto di sé. Perché quando nessuno si attende il miracolo, il miracolo avviene.

Venezia, fine del Cinquecento: una città tentacolare e spietata in cui anche i muri hanno gli occhi, il doge usa il pugno di ferro e il Sant'Uffizio sospetta di tutti e non ci pensa due volte a mandare a chiamare un poveraccio e a dargli due tratti di corda. La Serenissima osserva, ascolta e condanna. Anche ingiustamente. Ed è proprio per sfuggire a un'accusa infondata che Michele, giovane muratore, è costretto a imbarcarsi su una galera lasciando tutto e senza nemmeno il tempo per salutare la sua bella moglie Bianca, appena diciassettenne. Bandito da Venezia, rematore su una nave che vaga per il Mediterraneo carica di zecchini e di spezie e senza speranza di ritornare a breve, Michele vivrà straordinarie avventure tra le onde, sulle isole e nei porti del mare nostrum, fino ad approdare nelle terre del Sultano. Per sopravvivere, con il pensiero sempre rivolto a Bianca, da ragazzo ignaro e inesperto dovrà farsi uomo astuto, coraggioso e forte. Nel frattempo, Bianca rimane completamente sola in città, tra i palazzi dei signori e il ghetto. Il suo temperamento tenace e orgoglioso dovrà scontrarsi con prove se possibile più dure di quelle toccate a Michele, e incontri non meno terribili e importanti l'attendono nel dedalo di vicoli e calli, tra i profumi intensi delle botteghe di speziali, quello del pane cotto nel forno di quartiere, il torso dell'acqua gelida in cui lavare i panni e i pagliericci pidocchiosi che sono il solo giaciglio per la povera gente.

George R. R. Martin's superb fantasy epic continues in consummate style as bloodshed and alchemy lay waste the Seven Kingdoms in the second volume of A Song of Ice and Fire. The Iron Throne once united the Sunset Lands, but King Robert is dead, his widow is a traitor to his memory, and his surviving brothers are set on a path of war amongst themselves. At King's Landing, the head of Lord Eddard Stark rots on a spike for all to see. His daughter Sansa is betrothed still to his killer's son Joffrey -- Queen Cersei's son, though not the son of her late husband Robert. Even so, Joffrey is now a boy-king, Cersei is his regent, and war is inevitable. In Dragonstone, Robert's brother Stanišićnis has declared himself king, while his other brother Renly proclaims himself king at Storm's End -- and Eddard Stark's fifteen year old son Robb wears the crown of the north at Winterfell. A comet in the night sky, red and malevolent, the colour of blood and flame, can only be an omen of murder and war. Stanišićnis's child Princess Shireen dreams of dragons waking from stone. And a white raven has brought word from the Citadel itself, foretelling summer's end. It has been the longest summer in living memory, lasting ten years, and the smallfolk say it means an even longer winter to come... The first rule of war is never give the enemy his wish. But winter will be the biggest enemy. From beyond the Wall the undead and Others clamour for freedom, and from beyond the sea the long-dead Dragon King's daughter hatches her revenge. Robb Stark will be exceedingly lucky to reach adulthood.
