Rocks, wind, sea, and sky frame a house on the Sardinian coast, and the house frames a family’s life and art, suspended in memory. How does a house shape experience? How does architecture establish a practice of living? Architect Sebastiano Brandolini invites readers on a meditative tour of his family’s house on the Sardinian coast, describing everything from the geology of the rocks beneath, to the history of the surrounding villages, to the way the shifting light measures the day. More than the story of a single summer home written by an accomplished architect, this is a study of how place, the built environment, and daily practice make up our lives, at the most minute level of detail. Recalling the essays of Walter Benjamin, Bill Bryson, Rebecca Solnit, and Lawrence Weschler, Brandolini’s writing weaves literature, art history, and the transformation of Sardinia since the 1960s into a single fabric. The House at Capo d’Orso is not only a study of architecture and life in the built environment, but of family life, and the way the Brandolini family adapted themselves to the house they built. For Sebastiano Brandolini’s parents, this meant letting their house influence their work in poetry and visual art, and this book attends carefully to the way houses can guide the creative process. The wind and water of Sardinia change more than the rocks and trees; they invite the imagination itself to form new shapes. “Certain places—or perhaps objects—in the interior of Sardinia have left such a deep impression on my mind that I cannot rid myself them, becoming obsessions that give me pleasure and prompt reflections. For us obligatory positivists of the twenty-first century, there is something enigmatic and incomprehensible about these objects. They oscillate between architecture, archeology, geology, and landscape, but do not belong to any of these categories; as soon as we think we’ve found a plausible classification, we are assailed by doubts and qualifications.”—from The House at Capo d’Orso

Ancient Greek sailors used to say that "what land divides, the sea unites." This small collection of compelling fishermen's tails and stories will guide you through the waves and shores of various destinations around our globe to fill you with the emotions of those who have sailed across the oceans in search of unknown adventures. A feeling of love, hate, fear, belonging and abandonment will accompany you through the pages of these six extracts to make you reflect on the various values that forge our human nature. Whether vagabonds of the sea with no specific destination or goal in mind, or sedentary figures of the mainland areas, we all ultimately must inevitably face the course of our own destiny and the consequences of our decisions. So get ready to set sail around the world and to enjoy the calmness of the rustling wind, the saltiness of the whitest shores and the termoil of the most unexpected events.

In this revised edition of A Life Song Between Two Worlds, Dr. Francis Boni expands his original book of poetry, updating his thoughts on society, government, and philosophy. He seeks to enlighten others on points of views that would be otherwise unconsidered and encourages them to think beyond the words on the page and their own personal experiences. His verses reflect the emotional rhythm of the meaning of life and its baffling paradoxes, which are hard to resolve or to accept. He considers the violence in our society currently-still crying for a real tentative or effective solution-in an effort to reclaim the calm of years long past. Boni's work is poetry of ideas, purpose-poetry with a message-a dynamic blend of ideas expressed in a dialectical relationship in a symbolically and intensely passionate way. A Hero's Life There are no great men But only great challenges That "authentic" spirits must meet To overcome Not only personal fears But also the dreads Of that unknown and unconscious reality Which manifests those challenges Through which they become villains or heroes.
