Josef Wissarionowitsch Stalin, Erbe der Mission Lenins und väterlicher Führer des Sowjetvolkes, erleidet am 2. März 1953 einen Schlaganfall. Zwei Tage später wird er für tot erklärt. In diesen zwei Tagen liefern sich die Mitglieder des kommunistischen Zentralkomitees hinter den Kulissen einen erbitterten Kampf um seine Nachfolge und die Machthabe in der UdSSR, in dem die volle Absurdität des totalitären Regimes ans Licht kommt. Fabien Nury ("Es war einmal in Frankreich") spinnt eine bitterböse Politsatire um den Tod Stalins und das anschließende groteske Gerangel machtgieriger Funktionäre.

Rachel, szpitalną weterankę z wrodzoną wadą serca, intryguje chłopiec, który ze złamaną ręką trafia na pogotowie zupełnie sam. Dziewczynka zaczyna z nim rozmowę i opowiada mu bajkę.

Circle: "God is a circle whose center is everywhere but whose circumference is nowhere." Circle means perfection, cyclicity, superiority of the divinity, but also instability and movement. In nature soap bubbles are spherical and internal trees' rings are circular; the legend tells that Giotto drew a perfect O, while perfection is tangible on Michelangelo's Tondo Doni and Botticelli's Vergine col Bambino. King Arthur's knights were pairs around a round table, and nowadays people sit in circle to make a decision or watch a show. Bruno Munari selects and describes in this little, extraordinary encyclopedia, several uses of this fascinating and mysterious form, unstable and hieratic at the same time. Square: Square has much importance in man's life: a lot of churches, monuments, games (like chess), and fonts are square-based. But man seems not to realise it... one more time Bruno Munari amazes us with an historical, anthropological, scientific square bo...

Using the literary device of an "as told to" autobiography, Yehuda Berg explains the true nature of The Adversary, or Ego. We learn that Satan is not really a devil, but the an opposing force that resides within all of us, manifesting as a recurrent voice of uncertainty and negativity, wreaking havoc throughout the world. As "Satan" tells us in this book, he is also our "stunt double," whose job it is to take on our pain, if only we'd let him. That requires defeating him in the contests he instigates--and now that he is giving away his secrets, we finally can. In an engaging, conversational style, Yehuda Berg describes these familiar battles that Satan wages against us, and he gives us Kabbalah's tools for winning--because, as the book reveals, Satan is really on our side and wants us to win. By understanding Satan's modus operandi, and doing the spiritual work, we can banish doubt and evil influences from our lives, and ultimately eliminat...
