Sinopse

In "The Little Match Man," Luigi Barzini crafts a poignant tale that intertwines the themes of poverty, longing, and the interplay of human emotion against the harsh realities of urban life. With a lyrical prose style that balances simplicity and depth, Barzini employs a vivid narrative that captures the struggles of an impoverished street vendor. Set against the backdrop of a bustling city, the novel delves into the psyche of its characters, revealing the profound connections formed in the midst of despair, all while maintaining a critical lens on societal neglect. Barzini's background in journalism furthers the authenticity of his observations and enriches his exploration of the human condition. Luigi Barzini, an Italian writer and journalist, was deeply influenced by the socio-economic challenges of his time. His experiences in the tumultuous early 20th century, combined with his keen eye for the intricacies of human behavior, informed his literary pursuits. Barzini's previous works often examined the dichotomy between wealth and poverty, making "The Little Match Man" a natural extension of his ongoing dialogue with societal issues, inviting readers to reflect on their own moral responsibilities. Readers seeking a thought-provoking exploration of humanity's plight will find "The Little Match Man" an essential addition to their literary repertoire. With its rich character development and evocative storytelling, Barzini's novel not only illuminates the struggles of its central characters but also resonates with universal themes of resilience and hope, making it a timeless read that encourages empathy and understanding.

    My ex-wife is the only one that can save me. Guess I shouldn't have eaten her favorite Girl Scout cookies . . . 
     
     
     
    You know you've still got it bad when you haven't taken the wedding ring off a year after the divorce. Andy has always been the only one for me. The brawn to my brains. The hot fudge to my vanilla ice cream. The . . . well you get the idea. 
     
     
     
    But this isn't the reunion I would've hoped for. With feral Orcs and a psychopath bent on world domination hunting us, it doesn't exactly leave a lot of time to show her how 'great' I'm doing without her. Or to ask her why she left me without an explanation. 
     
     
     
    Between the fights about who actually left socks all over the apartment (totally her) and who was the biggest workaholic (maybe a tie), we start to realize that the past isn't going to stay buried. All it takes is one illicit moment on the back of a motorcycle for us to reignite the passion that used to burn so hot between us. 
     
     
     
    Returning to a love that broke both our hearts isn't going to help us survive. In fact it might just kill us. Problem is, we were never good at resisting one another. 
     
     
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Information about the first heresy is secreted out of Jerusalem after its fall in AD 70. It reaches the last great pagan philosopher, Hypatia of Alexandria, and is smuggled out of Egypt by her slave-companion on the day of her murder. Centuries later, clues to the First Heresy are revealed in Ireland to a Norman youth and retired Templar Knight. Meanwhile, in Paris, a scholar of Persian descent, and connected to the Knights Templar, is drawn into the events that unfold. The First Heresy is so stunning that it could destroy the foundation of the Roman Church and the secular power-structures of Europe. It sets in motion a medieval hunt across France and Ireland as a small group, led by scholar, is closely pursued by the forces of the French King. They are confronted with the truth about the Christ and the nature of man, while the Order itself is attacked by the Iron King, convinced he is an agent of God.  The First Heresy, the debut novel from financial commentator and TV presenter Eddie Hobbs, combines historical research with fiction and mysticism to create a unique, fast-paced thriller which will have you on the edge of your seat.
