Title : The Florio - Volume 1 - The Lions of Sicily - Stefania Auci - book Summary : The novel that inspired the Disney+ series. “The real good surprise of this literary season.” The Stampa “I devoured it!” Gerard Collard, The Health Magazine 1799. Paolo and Ignazio Florio leave their native Calabria to settle in Palermo. Passionate, ambitious but poor and of modest origin, the two brothers and their family aspire to only one thing: to rise among the powerful of the city. This is without taking into account the contempt of the Palermitans who look askance at these foreigners whose "blood stinks of sweat." Through stubbornness and willpower, the Florios, by launching into the spice trade, forge a path that, perhaps one day, will give them an empire. But Their success does not protect them from more intimate dramas , because Paolo and Ignazio, although united like the five fingers of a hand, love the same woman... A phenomenal success in Italy, it was soon adapted for the screen by the producers of My Brilliant Friend . The Lions of Sicily opens a passionate and tormented fresco, in the image of this Southern Italy which constitutes its setting. “A legendary family... A fascinating mosaic of public, private, and historical stories.” Vanity Fair “One of the must-read novels of the summer. ” Booksellers' Page EAN : 9782226442024 Used book Book in good condition The book matches the photo

Title : Moonflowers - Jetta Carleton - book Summary : During the first half of the 20th century, Matthew and Callie Soames created a world of their own on their Missouri farm and raised their four daughters, all different but with strong personalities. Jessica broke their hearts by running away at the age of eighteen. Leonie fell in love with the wrong man. Mary Jo broke away from the family cocoon to pursue a career in New York. And the fate of Mathy, the wild child, ended in the most terrible tragedy the family would ever experience. Throughout the years, the Soames family will love, disappoint, console, deceive, forgive, and sometimes try to escape. But ultimately, they will come to fiercely preserve the bonds of love that hold their family together. With this romantic chronicle of unexpected twists and turns, imbued with the smells, flavors, and colors of the American heartland, we suddenly discover a little-known masterpiece of contemporary literature. Born in 1913 in a Missouri village, Jetta Carleton was successively a teacher, an advertising copywriter, and a publishing house director. This exceptional family chronicle, however, constitutes the only literary legacy of this professional writer, who died in 1999 in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Title : The Flames of Liberty - Georges Coulonges - book Summary In occupied France, the Resistance has organized itself. Dédé Lassale and his friends are part of it.
