**NUOVA EDIZIONE AGGIORNATA** La chiamano la Terra del Ghiaccio e del Fuoco: una tundra avvolta dal gelo e punteggiata dai vulcani. È il Paese delle aurore boreali, delle pulcinelle di mare, degli iceberg e dei geyser. Comunemente, l'Islanda è tutto questo. Ma per conoscere veramente quest'isola, per scoprire la sua anima, non basta fermarsi alle prime impressioni. Perché ghiacciai e spiagge nere non sono solo meraviglie della natura, ma anche silenziosi testimoni di sbarchi di pirati e cacce agli stregoni. Perché sotto le luci del Nord vive un popolo con una cultura straordinaria, in parte molto diversa dalla nostra, ricca di capolavori letterari e tradizioni affascinanti. Perché l'architettura moderna, talvolta poco attraente, racchiude profumi ed esperienze sorprendenti. Questa Islanda ce la racconta Roberto Luigi Pagani, fondatore del celebre blog Un italiano in Islanda. L'autore, che dal 2014 vive a Reykjavík, ci prende per mano e ci porta alla scoperta dell'isola attraverso ventuno tappe fondamentali: parte dal promontorio di Ingólfshöfði, dove ha avuto inizio la storia d'Islanda, e passa da luoghi come Hörgsland e le sue leggende elfiche. Dalle case di torba di Glaumbær all'isola di Flatey, che dà il nome al più prezioso manoscritto islandese. Dalle vie trafficate e dai bar profumati di cannella della capitale ai solitari altipiani. Questo libro, in edizione aggiornata con un nuovo capitolo, è una guida in cui si fondono mito, magia, storia, costume, geologia. Ma non solo: scopriamo l'Islanda anche dal punto di vista dell'autore che, con voce appassionata, ci racconta senza censure le difficoltà e la bellezza del vivere in un luogo così remoto, scardina pregiudizi e preconcetti, svela le differenze tra le nostre culture e ci narra la sua meravigliosa storia d'amore con l'isola di ghiaccio. Un italiano in Islanda è un libro per scoprire un mondo sconosciuto e fantastico, una guida emozionale per chi ama viaggiare, anche solo con il cuore.

Nobel laureate Halldór Laxness’s Under the Glacier is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, a wryly provocative novel at once earthy and otherworldly. At its outset, the Bishop of Iceland dispatches a young emissary to investigate certain charges against the pastor at Snæfells Glacier, who, among other things, appears to have given up burying the dead. But once he arrives, the emissary finds that this dereliction counts only as a mild eccentricity in a community that regards itself as the center of the world and where Creation itself is a work in progress. What is the emissary to make, for example, of the boarded-up church? What about the mysterious building that has sprung up alongside it? Or the fact that Pastor Primus spends most of his time shoeing horses? Or that his wife, Ua (pronounced “ooh-a,” which is what men invariably sputter upon seeing her), is rumored never to have bathed, eaten, or slept? Piling improbability on top of improbability, Under the Glacier overflows with comedy both wild and deadpan as it conjures a phantasmagoria as beguiling as it is profound.

A Guardian 'Top 10 Nature Memoirs' pick 'Poetic and heartful' Guardian Icelandic author and activist Andri Snær Magnason's 'Letter to the Future', an extraordinary and moving eulogy for the lost Okjökull glacier, made global news and was shared by millions. Now he attempts to come to terms with the issues we all face in his new book On Time and Water. Magnason writes of the melting glaciers, the rising seas and acidity changes that haven't been seen for 50 million years. These are changes that will affect all life on earth. Taking a path to climate science through ancient myths about sacred cows, stories of ancestors and relatives and interviews with the Dalai Lama, Magnason allows himself to be both personal and scientific. The result is an absorbing mixture of travel, history, science and philosophy.

After coming through the blizzard that almost cost them everything, Jens and the boy are far from home, in a fishing community at the edge of the world. Taken in by the village doctor, the boy once again has the sense of being brought back from the grave. But this is a strange place, with otherworldly inhabitants, including flame-haired Álfheiður, who makes him wonder whether it is possible to love two women at once; he had believed his heart was lost to Ragnheiður, the daughter of the wealthy merchant in the village to which he must now inexorably return. Set in the awe-inspiring wilderness of the extreme north, The Heart of Man is a profound exploration of life, love and desire, written with a sublime simplicity. In this conclusion to an audacious trilogy, Stefánsson brings a poet's eye and a philosopher's insight to a tale worthy of the sagasmiths of old.

A USA TODAY BESTSELLER In this thrilling sequel to the New York Times bestselling novella by Stephen King and award-winning author Richard Chizmar, an adult Gwendy is summoned back to Castle Rock after the mysterious reappearance of the button box. Something evil has swept into the small Maine town of Castle Rock on the heels of the latest winter storm. Sheriff Norris Ridgewick and his team are desperately searching for two missing girls, but time is running out. In Washington, DC, thirty-seven-year-old Gwendy Peterson couldn’t be more different from the self-conscious teenaged girl who once spent a summer running up Castle Rock’s Suicide Stairs. That same summer, she had been entrusted—or some might say cursed—with the extraordinary button box by Richard Farris, the mysterious stranger in the black suit. The seductive and powerful box offered Gwendy small gifts in exchange for its care and feeding until Farris eventually returned, promising the young girl she’d never see the box again. One day, though, the button box suddenly reappears but this time, without Richard Farris to explain why, or what she’s supposed to do with it. Between this and the troubling disappearances back in Castle Rock, Gwendy decides to return home. She just might be able to help rescue the missing girls and stop a dangerous madman before he does something ghastly. With breathtaking and lyrical prose, Gwendy’s Magic Feather explores whether our lives are controlled by fate or the choices we make and what price we sometimes have to pay. Prepare to return again to Stephen King’s Castle Rock, the sleepy little town built on a bedrock of deep, dark secrets, just as it’s about to awaken from its quiet slumber once more.
