Just an ordinary man

Giovanni Bertini

Sinopse

Cacciato di casa e con il cuore a pezzi, Mario vaga per una Genova che improvvisamente gli appare estranea. Trova rifugio nella stazione, dove l'incontro con due donne, l'enigmatica "Signora" e la provocatoria Cinzia, apre squarci inaspettati su una vita che credeva ormai conclusa.  
 
Tra la nostalgia di un amore perduto e la possibilità di una nuova felicità, Mario affronta il dolore dell'abbandono, la paura del futuro e oscuri segreti che lo trascinano in un vortice di eventi pericolosi. "Solo un uomo ordinario" è un romanzo che esplora con stile asciutto e realistico la complessità dell'animo umano e la fragilità dei rapporti, sullo sfondo di una Genova suggestiva e decadente. Un viaggio nell'intimità di un uomo in cerca di riscatto, tra le luci e le ombre di una città che custodisce i suoi segreti.

Queen of Babble

Meg Cabot

What's an American girl with a big mouth, but an equally big heart, to do?
Lizzie Nichols has a problem, and it isn't that she doesn't have the slightest idea what she's going to do with her life, or that she's blowing what should be her down payment on a cute little Manhattan apartment on a trip to London to visit her long-distance boyfriend, Andrew. What's the point of planning for the future when she's done it again? See, Lizzie can't keep her mouth shut. And it's not just that she can't keep her own secrets, she can't keep anything to herself.
This time when she opens her big mouth, her good intentions get Andrew in major hot water. Now Lizzie's stuck in London with no boyfriend and no place to stay until the departure date written on her non-changeable airline ticket.
Fortunately, Lizzie's best friend and college roommate is spending her summer in the south of France, catering weddings in a chateau. One call and Lizzie's on a train to Paris. Who cares if she speaks only rudimentary French? One glimpse of gorgeous Chateau Mirac -- not to mention gorgeous Luke, Chateau Mirac's owner -- and she's smitten.
But while most caterers can be trusted to keep a secret, Lizzie's the exception. And no sooner has the first cork been popped than Luke hates her, the bride is in tears, and it looks like Chateau Mirac is in danger of becoming a lipo-recovery spa. As if things aren't bad enough, ex-boyfriend Andy shows up looking for ""closure"" (or at least a loan), threatening to ruin everything, especially Lizzie's chance at ever finding real love -- unless she can figure out a way to use that big mouth of hers to save the day.
