    Oltre la Sagrada Familia, Park Güell, Casa Milà, Montjuïc, il Barrio Gótico, il calciatori del Barça e le architetture di Gaudì – di cui vi sveleremo comunque alcuni segreti – c'è una Barcellona che pochi conoscono, resa unica dall'eccezionale mescolanza tra seny, ragione, e rauxa, caos. La Barcellona dei piccoli e antichi negozi della città vecchia, dove il tempo si è fermato, di un museo delle pipe dentro un vecchio palazzo, di una piccola erboristeria che è ormai parte della storia del cinema.
    Warum heißt die Hälfte aller Bars in Barcelona 'Frankfurt', woher kommt der Boom der Schokolade in der Stadt, und warum schreiben die Bewohner Barcelonas nie ihren Namen aufs Klingelschild? Dieses Buch führt Sie an Orte der katalanischen Hauptstadt, die Sie in herkömmlichen Reiseführern vergeblich suchen.

    SYNOPSIS 
    The Bolivian authorities wanted to cut his head off and send it to Cuba to verify his identity, or just to send a message; after an exhaustive debate, they amputated his hands at the wrist instead and shipped them in a very special container to La Paz, Bolivia; his body was injected with a heavy dose of formalin for preservation, it lay on the autopsy room which was no valhalla; just a squalid room of a school with a military-type stretcher next to a stone sink, perhaps a laundry tub. On October 12th the package arrives and the inspectors of the Argentinian police compare the fingerprints with the ones smudged on Guevara's journals―they match. The hands of the comandante suddenly disappeared and Fidel Castro wants answers; he actually does not believe that his compaňero is dead; the truth was kept secret for over forty years, because the three Argentinian were not authorized to speak. Immediately after the autopsy, the pictures of the cadaver riddled with bullets are published by every newspaper around the globe; the eyes of the comandante are wide open, as they are fixating the sky, his expression is dramatic, his body is statuary, he doesn't look dead at all, just deep in his thoughts, contemplating his next revolution.

    Firenze è una città talmente bella che a volte, presi dall'ammirazione per i monumenti, ci scappano i suoi mille preziosi dettagli, dall'antica buchetta per la mescita del vino alla lanterna all'angolo di piazza della Signoria di un fabbro geniale che vendeva cipolle. Secoli di storia ci riportano episodi curiosi e divertenti, come lo scalpellino del duomo che si beffa del sarto cornuto, l'orologio con le lancette che girano al contrario o la più recente Madonna del puzzo che si tura il naso per i cattivi odori. Per scoprire questa Firenze più segreta, basta lasciarsi guidare dai palloncini rossi di un romantico street writer e, se si viene colti da una smania più "turistica", si può salire alla terrazza della biblioteca delle Oblate per godersi da vicino la cupola del Brunelleschi, senza pagare un centesimo. E sarebbe un vero peccato perdersi alcune rare eccellenze, come la casa dello 007 dell'arte Rodolfo Siviero o l'archivio dei fratelli Alinari, con le foto di piazza della Signoria quando c'era ancora il David di Michelangelo originale. Florenz ist bekannt für seine imposanten Bauten und Kunstwerke. Aber kennen Sie auch die versteckten Orte und spannenden Details? Die Geschichte brachte jahrhundertelang kuriose Episoden, deren Spuren es zu entdecken gilt. Kennen Sie die Uhr, deren Zeiger verkehrt herum laufen? Oder die Madonna, die ihre Nase in die Richtung dreht, aus der üble Gerüche kommen? Genießen Sie den Blick auf Brunelleschis Kuppel von der nahen Terrasse einer Bibliothek aus – ohne einen Cent Eintritt zu bezahlen! Erkunden Sie diese faszinierende Stadt abseits der bekannten Pfade.

    Please Note: This audiobook is in Italian. This subliminal program is for learners of Italian and contains binaural beats, pink noise, and sounds of nature. Hear, learn and speak Italian with confidence. Research shows that with the right technology and deep meditation, you can speed up your learning and retain what you have learned. Positive attitude, willpower, and good mental state are indispensable for success in any endeavor; learning a foreign language is hard work and the main obstacle is retention. This program, which features binaural beats (hearing sensations), takes you step by step where you listen to the native speaker, relax with sounds of nature, and retain the material. The technology of auditory beats and isochronic pulses is not new: if well applied by following the simple tips provided, it can give you an edge in remembering more in less time. This is a subliminal program you use before bed with good quality headphones, preferably over-the-ear with noise-canceling; you shall repeat until your subconscious takes care of the rest. You must do absolutely nothing before you fall asleep. Day after day you will gradually remember the lessons. On a separate session, during day time, review the written material (the eBook is available at major retailers). Use the recording twice a day, at night and early in the morning for at least 30 days.
