Il vero rompicazzi se ne infischia delle etichette ideologiche, all’occorrenza fa il voltagabbana, è cangiante e contraddittorio, con i suoi repentini ripensamenti e cambi di direzione fa saltare le topografie intellettuali correnti. Solo un secolo feroce come il Novecento, drammatico e al contempo geniale e creativo, poteva essere così ricco di figure ambivalenti, di uomini e donne fuori dagli schemi che hanno chiuso da un momento all’altro con la loro vita precedente e ne hanno costruita una diversa. Con penna immaginifica e caustica, Giampiero Mughini rilegge le vite di formidabili campioni del non compromesso storico che hanno plasmato lo scenario letterario, giornalistico, politico e musicale, facendo luce su episodi rimossi e vicende trascurate di «una ridda di eroi che diventano bastardi e viceversa». Svelando passioni divoranti, gesti impertinenti e battaglie interiori combattute senza esclusione di colpi, l’autore chiarisce l’itinerario umano, intellettuale e artistico di personalità mutevoli e inafferrabili, funamboli che passano con leggiadria da un punto di vista all’altro, in precario equilibrio sul filo della storia. Tra amicizie indissolubili, tradimenti e aspirazioni represse, la memoria collettiva del «secolo breve» si intreccia ai ricordi privati di uno fra i più noti polemisti del nostro paese e racconta un’epoca «irregolare», fatta di esistenze in bilico tra la fine di un mondo e l’inizio di uno nuovo.

Stieg Larsson is best known—all over the world now—as the author of the Millennium trilogy, but during his career as a journalist he was a critical protagonist in the battle against racism and for democracy in Sweden and Europe, and one of the founders of the anti-fascist magazine Expo. Kurdo Baksi first met Larsson in 1992; it was the beginning of an intense friendship, and a fruitful but challenging work relationship. Now, six years after Larsson's death, Baksi has written about his close friend. This is a candid and rounded memoir in which Baksi answers the questions a multitude of Larsson's readers and admirers have already asked: about his upbringing; the recurring death threats from neo-Nazi groups; his insomnia; his prodigious capacity for work on causes about which he was passionate; his feminism—so evident in his novels—and his dogmatism. But Baksi also reveals concern about Stieg's well-being, and his uncompromising side, which sometimes got him into trouble. What was he like as a colleague? Who provided the inspiration for his now-immortal characters (Baksi is one of the few who appears as himself)? Who was Lisbeth Salander? Stieg Larsson, My Friendis an eloquent and troubling insight into the life of a man who has rapidly become one of the world's bestselling authors.

**The dazzling new novel from the prize-winning, bestselling author of Middle England** In the heady summer of 1977, a naïve young woman called Calista sets out from Athens to venture into the wider world. On a Greek island that has been turned into a film set, she finds herself working for the famed Hollywood director Billy Wilder, about whom she knows almost nothing. But the time she spends in this glamorous, unfamiliar new life will change her for good. While Calista is thrilled with her new adventure, Wilder himself is living with the realisation that his star may be on the wane. Rebuffed by Hollywood, he has financed his new film with German money, and when Calista follows him to Munich for the shooting of further scenes, she finds herself joining him on a journey of memory into the dark heart of his family history. In a novel that is at once a tender coming-of-age story and an intimate portrait of one of cinema's most intriguing figures, Jonathan Coe turns his gaze on the nature of time and fame, of family and the treacherous lure of nostalgia. When the world is catapulting towards change, do you hold on for dear life or decide it's time to let go? _______________________________________________________ Praise for Jonathan Coe 'Coe is a writer of uncommon decency' Observer 'Brilliantly funny' Economist 'Superb' Times 'Very, very funny' Stylist
