The 2006 World Cup final between Italy and France was a down-and-dirty game, marred by French superstar Zidane's head-butting of Italian defender Materazzi. But viewers were also exposed to the poetry, force, and excellence of the Italian game; as operatic as Verdi and as cunning as Machiavelli, it seemed to open a window into the Italian soul. John Foot's epic history shows what makes Italian soccer so unique. Mixing serious analysis and comic storytelling, Foot describes its humble origins in northern Italy in the 1890s to its present day incarnation where soccer is the national civic religion. A story that is reminiscent of Gangs of New York and A Clockwork Orange, Foot shows how the Italian game -- like its political culture -- has been overshadowed by big business, violence, conspiracy, and tragedy, how demagogues like Benito Mussolini and Silvio Berlusconi have used the game to further their own political ambitions. But Winning at All Costs also celebrates the sweet moments -- the four World Cup victories, the success of Juventus, Inter Milan, AC Milan, the role soccer played in the resistance to Nazism, and the great managers and players who show that Italian soccer is as irresistible as Italy itself.

Qualcuno se n'è dimenticato: eppure quello fu l'inizio della riscossa. Nel 2003 l'Inter torna tra le prime quattro squadre d'Europa, alla guida di Hector Cuper, il gaucho senza sorrisi, tecnico generoso e letterario. Ma il destino, a quei tempi, amava metterci alla prova. Dopo aver regalato lo scudetto alla Juventus nel maggio 2002, ogni interista di buon senso — può sembrare incredibile, ma ce ne sono — pensava: cosa può esserci di più doloroso? Un anno dopo l'abbiamo scoperto: consegnare un altro scudetto alla Juve e la Champions League al Milan, dopo essere usciti in semifinale senza perdere.Qualunque altra tifoseria si sarebbe abbattuta. Noi, no. La nostra filosofia, in quella stagione emozionante e tormentata, era semplice: bisogna provare a provare, senza paura. Le cose cambieranno, basta crederci. E quando succederà, sarà bellissimo. Di una cosa, oltretutto, eravamo sicuri. Con l'Inter non ci annoia mai. Anche la scalata a quella semifinale di Champions, giocata tutta a San Siro, è stata piena di avventure. L'Inter, ai tempi, sapeva essere crudele, ma non faceva mancare le emozioni. Bobo Vieri ce l'avevamo solo noi; per prevedere Recoba occorreva un cartomante; e Cuper, prima d'essere un allenatore, era un enigma avvolto in un mistero. "Scegliere l'Inter — scriveva allora Beppe Severgnini — è come entrare in un labirinto. Un favoloso dedalo neroazzurro, pieno di sorprese a ogni svolta. Al centro c'è il premio, il tesoro, la gioia che attendiamo. Il problema è: come arrivarci?" Altri interismi non s'illude di suggerire la risposta. Il tifoso con le soluzioni in tasca è una delle figure più patetiche del calcio (non l'unica, per la verità). Ma queste pagine dimostrano perché noi interisti siamo speciali: sappiamo sorridere quando altri saprebbero solo deprimersi, siamo capaci di vedere la luce in fondo al tunnel.

L'amore per una squadra è una cosa totalmente illogica. Cambiano i giocatori, cambiano gli allenatori, cambiano i presidenti. Restano due colori, ricordi intensi, serate sospese davanti a un televisore, lunghi pomeriggi allo stadio, ritorni a casa silenziosi, gioie fulminanti. E cento anni di Inter da festeggiare, in questa edizione speciale. Tornano Interismi, Altri interismi e Tripli interismi!, con una nuova introduzione, ''La lunga marcia neroazzurra'', e un'appendice, ''100 piccoli interismi''. Insomma, un secolo di eroismi, follie, curiosità; e scivoloni, miraggi, tentazioni di mollare tutto. Ma non abbiamo mollato.

Join the bestselling author of Ciao, America! on a lively tour of modern Italy that takes you behind the seductive face it puts on for visitors—la bella figura—and highlights its maddening, paradoxical true self You won’t need luggage for this hypothetical and hilarious trip into the hearts and minds of Beppe Severgnini’s fellow Italians. In fact, Beppe would prefer if you left behind the baggage his crafty and elegant countrymen have smuggled into your subconscious. To get to his Italia, you’ll need to forget about your idealized notions of Italy. Although La Bella Figura will take you to legendary cities and scenic regions, your real destinations are the places where Italians are at their best, worst, and most authentic: The highway: in America, a red light has only one possible interpretation—Stop! An Italian red light doesn’t warn or order you as much as provide an invitation for reflection. The airport: where Italians prove that one of their virtues (an appreciation for beauty) is really a vice. Who cares if the beautiful girls hawking cell phones in airport kiosks stick you with an outdated model? That’s the price of gazing upon perfection. The small town: which demonstrates the Italian genius for pleasant living: “a congenial barber . . . a well-stocked newsstand . . . professionally made coffee and a proper pizza; bell towers we can recognize in the distance, and people with a kind word and a smile for everyone.” The chaos of the roads, the anarchy of the office, the theatrical spirit of the hypermarkets, and garrulous train journeys; the sensory reassurance of a church and the importance of the beach; the solitude of the soccer stadium and the crowded Italian bedroom; the vertical fixations of the apartment building and the horizontal democracy of the eat-in kitchen. As you venture to these and many other locations rooted in the Italian psyche, you realize that Beppe has become your Dante and shown you a country that “has too much style to be hell” but is “too disorderly to be heaven.” Ten days, thirty places. From north to south. From food to politics. From saintliness to sexuality. This ironic, methodical, and sentimental examination will help you understand why Italy—as Beppe says—“can have you fuming and then purring in the space of a hundred meters or ten minutes.”

In the wry but affectionate tradition of Bill Bryson, Ciao, America! is a delightful look at America through the eyes of a fiercely funny guest—one of Italy’s favorite authors who spent a year in Washington, D.C. When Beppe Severgnini and his wife rented a creaky house in Georgetown they were determined to see if they could adapt to a full four seasons in a country obsessed with ice cubes, air-conditioning, recliner chairs, and, of all things, after-dinner cappuccinos. From their first encounters with cryptic rental listings to their back-to-Europe yard sale twelve months later, Beppe explores this foreign land with the self-described patience of a mildly inappropriate beachcomber, holding up a mirror to America’s signature manners and mores. Succumbing to his surroundings day by day, he and his wife find themselves developing a taste for Klondike bars and Samuel Adams beer, and even that most peculiar of American institutions—the pancake house. The realtor who waves a perfect bye-bye, the overzealous mattress salesman who bounces from bed to bed, and the plumber named Marx who deals in illegally powerful showerheads are just a few of the better-than-fiction characters the Severgninis encounter while foraging for clues to the real America. A trip to the computer store proves just as revealing as D.C.’s Fourth of July celebration, as do boisterous waiters angling for tips and no-parking signs crammed with a dozen lines of fine print. By the end of his visit, Severgnini has come to grips with life in these United States—and written a charming, laugh-out-loud tribute.

What is it in the operatic Italian psyche that allows-indeed, forgives, even applauds-Italy’s premier for conducting a lifestyle as decadent as a Fellini extravaganza, while organizing an ongoing string of questionable behaviors and politically incorrect gaffes not seen since the days of Nero? All this, and yet Mr. Berlusconi remains completely “understood” by so many of his countrymen-some of whom keep coming back for more! Best-selling writer Beppe Severgnini, who by explaining America to Italians humorously immortalized American behavior in his book Ciao, America!, now trains his sights on his own countrymen. Through witty yet substantive anecdotes touching on Italy’s current political and economic climate, Severgnini decodes the Italian premier’s style and appeal, exploring his rise to power and creating a compulsively readable portrait of Italy today.

In this witty and entertaining collection of travel tales, an acclaimed journalist explores his obsession with trains--and what his rail journeys have taught him about culture and identity. "I've gone around the world in installments. Every trip has been a revelation. I've watched regions, nations, and continents change moods and I've met more people on trains than in forty years of airplane flights. Every train trip has been a spectacle. Trains are stages, cafés, bazaars. The only talk show that will never go off the air..." Beppe Severgnini has spent his life traveling the world, and not just because he's a journalist; he's a passionate, unflagging train buff. Off the Rails recounts some of his favorite trips across Europe, Australia, Asia, and the United States, each journey bringing readers not only to a different place but to a different time, from his honeymoon on the Trans-Siberian Express (in a four-person compartment!), to a winding journey from Russia to Turkey during the last summer of communism, to a recent coast-to-coast trip with his son from Washington, D.C., to Washington State. Off the Rails is the perfect getaway for anyone with a touch of wanderlust, who dreams of escape or just likes to laugh. Filled with memorable characters and perceptive observations, it demonstrates--hilariously--what unites us. With the world in chaos and life in perpetual fast-forward, it's always the right time to hop on board with Beppe Severgnini and meet your charming, hapless, quarrelsome, romantic, shifty, quirky, endearing neighbors.
