Ten gay men gather for a dinner party, but the conversation leaves a lot unsaid. Into the gaps, the author weaves the untold stories of the guests—Gavin's trip to Ireland to find the place where Colin died, and how Nicholas' ad in the classifieds led him to the hairiest body in Edinburgh.

Il Decameron di Boccaccio narra di un gruppo di ragazzi che decide di ritirarsi in una villa di campagna per sfuggire alla peste e di raccontare ogni giorno, a turno, una storia per sfuggire alla noia. Oggi, in un’epoca segnata dalla pandemia, da un recente passato di confinamenti e restrizioni e da una guerra in atto alle porte dell'Europa, è stato chiesto a dieci autori di prendere il posto di quei dieci ragazzi. Il risultato è questa raccolta LGBT. Flavio Mazzini ripercorre i suoi anni giovanili nell’ambiente gay romano degli anni ‘90, tra ironia e nostalgia. Lisa Arsani ci racconta la storia d’amore tra due giovani ragazzi, collocando sullo sfondo una Bologna pittoresca. E poi ancora, un gioco di seduzione ispirato da un antico poeta romano (Gianni Antonio Palumbo), un incontro al buio tra un escort e il suo cliente (Roberto Mauri), la relazione tra due adolescenti nella Napoli dei sobborghi (Carlo Lanna), i dubbi e le lotte interiori dei genitori di una ragazza transgender (Manuela Chiarottino), la giovinezza di un omosessuale degli anni ‘80 raccontata a ritroso attraverso una lettera al fratello (Christiano Cerasola), l’infatuazione proibita di un nuotatore pederasta (Gianluca Pirozzi), il coming out durante la leva militare (Davide Steccanella) e, infine, due anime smarrite che uniscono le proprie solitudini nell’improbabile ambiente di una comunità terapeutica (Lily Carpenetti). Dieci autori prendono le mosse dal Decameron, reinterpretandolo in chiave LGBT e moderna con la massima libertà, mostrando inevitabilmente l’eterna attualità dell’opera originaria.

The Edinburgh Companion to Contemporary Scottish Literature examines the ways in which the cultural and political role of Scottish writing has changed since the country's successful referendum on national self-rule in 1997. In doing so, it makes a convincing case for a distinctive post-devolution Scottish criticism. Introducing over forty original essays under four main headings - 'Contexts', 'Genres', 'Authors' and 'Topics' - the volume covers the entire spectrum of current interests and topical concerns in the field of Scottish studies and heralds a new era in Scottish writing, literary criticism and cultural theory. It records and critically outlines prominent literary trends and developments, the specific political circumstances and aesthetic agendas that propel them, as well as literature's capacity for envisioning new and alternative futures. Issues under discussion include class, sexuality and gender, nationhood and globalisation, the New Europe and cosmopolitan citizenship, postcoloniality,

From Treasure Island to Trainspotting, Scotland's rich literary tradition has influenced writing across centuries and cultures far beyond its borders. Here, for the first time, is a single volume presenting the glories of fifteen centuries of Scottish literature. In Scotland's Books the much loved poet Robert Crawford tells the story of Scottish imaginative writing and its relationship to the country's history. Stretching from the medieval masterpieces of St. Columba's Iona - the earliest surviving Scottish work - to the energetic world of twenty-first-century writing by authors such as Ali Smith and James Kelman, this outstanding account traces the development of literature in Scotland and explores the cultural, linguistic and literary heritage of the nation. It includes extracts from the writing discussed to give a flavor of the original work, and its new research ranges from specially made translations of ancient poems to previously unpublished material from the Scottish Enlightenment and interviews with living writers. Informative and readable, this is the definitive single-volume guide to the marvelous legacy of Scottish literature.
