Escrita en 1954, cinco años después de la publicación de El segundo sexo, Las inseparables narra la amistad apasionada que une a Sylvie y a Andrée -alter ego de la propia Simone de Beauvoir y de Élisabeth Lacoin (Zaza)- desde que con nueve años se conocen en la escuela. Andrée es alegre, inteligente y atrevida, y Sylvie, una niña formal que se siente irremediablemente atraída por su personalidad arrolladora. Juntas aprenderán a librarse de las convenciones y las expectativas asfixiantes de su entorno, ignorantes del trágico precio que tienen la libertad y la ambición intelectual y existencial.

Questa è una storia che se non sei di queste parti, mica la conosci, successa sopra a una terra in cui, se non hai parenti o amici, mica ci vieni.

Primavera del 1944, Italia centrale: dopo lo sfondamento da parte degli Alleati della linea di Montecassino, ultimo baluardo tedesco, la guerra è apparentemente finita e l'Italia è libera, ma per le popolazioni delle campagne tra Lazio e Abruzzo cominciano i giorni più terribili.

Un audiolibro ricco di inediti che accompagnerà i suoi ascoltatori giorno dopo giorno, stagione dopo stagione, regalando una quotidiana pillola di ironica saggezza. 365 lampi di genio e dolcezza (366, contando il 29 febbraio) per riconciliarsi con il mondo ogni volta che ci sentiamo fuori posto.

L'amore è avventura. Parole che diventano baci e morsi feroci. Musica ascoltata in loop, di notte. Ed è filosofia, il genere di filosofia in atto che, da Socrate in poi, insegna l'amore nell'unico modo possibile: trasformandosi in una vera e propria dichiarazione. Ma l'amore inteso in questo modo è in pericolo nella nostra epoca, dominata dal piacere e dal narcisismo dell'io che vuole addomesticare ogni passione eccessiva. Come ritornare alla verità dell'amore nell'epoca della sua fine? È ciò che spiega Simone Regazzoni in questo libro.

Che ci fanno Emmanuel Lévinas e Slavoj Žižek, maestri del pensiero contemporaneo, accanto a Rocco Siffredi e Moana Pozzi, protagonisti di ben altre imprese? Che cosa rende il pop porno, e quindi l'osceno, lo scandaloso, degno oggetto di riflessione filosofica? Cos'è, in una parola, la pornosofia? Dopo aver sgombrato il campo dalla critica politicamente ed eticamente corretta della pornografia, l'autore indaga il nesso fra corpo, amore, perversione, democrazia e, infine, ricerca filosofica.

"Comment la femme fait-elle l'apprentissage de sa condition, comment l'éprouve-t-elle, dans quel univers se trouve-t-elle enfermée, quelles évasions lui sont permises, voilà ce que je chercherai à décrire. Alors seulement nous pourrons comprendre quels problèmes se posent aux femmes qui, héritant d'un lourd passé, s'efforcent de forger un avenir nouveau."

"Nous commencerons par discuter les points de vue pris sur la femme par la biologie, la psychanalyse, le matérialisme historique. Nous essaierons de montrer ensuite positivement comment la "réalité féminine" s'est constituée, pourquoi la femme a été définie comme l'Autre et quelles en ont été les conséquences du point de vue des hommes."

Can you pray for money? For abundance and wealth? Of course you can! In fact, you can ask God for "convenient, useful, and necessary things for our present and above all future life" as San Giovanni Damasceno suggests. Or as St. Augustine teaches: "It is lawful to ask in prayer what is to be desired." In this audiobook are many prayers for wealth and well-being.
