![]() ![]() Author: Miles Jonathan Publisher: Minimum Fax Talmadge e Micah abitano abusivamente in un appartamento di Manhattan, vivendo serenamente degli avanzi che trovano nei cassonetti, ma il loro equilibrio subisce una scossa quando devono ospitare un vecchio compagno universitario. Elwin, un linguista di mezza età lasciato dalla moglie, deve fare i conti con un padre malato che va perdendo la memoria. Sara, un'avvenente vedova dell'11 settembre, vede sgretolarsi il rapporto con la figlia adolescente e con il secondo marito, Dave, un uomo che ha costruito la sua fortuna riscuotendo debiti scaduti. A partire dai detriti, reali e metaforici, delle loro esistenze, Jonathan Miles costruisce un romanzo corale dagli incastri perfetti, tenuto insieme da una prosa impeccabile (e a tratti esilarante) e da una profonda riflessione etica sul concetto di spreco e di consumo, per giungere alla conclusione che tutto, ma proprio tutto, può essere salvato. € 19,00

Elwin, un linguista di mezza età lasciato dalla moglie, deve fare i conti con un padre malato che va perdendo la memoria. Sara, un'avvenente vedova dell'11 settembre, vede sgretolarsi il rapporto con la figlia adolescente e con il secondo marito, Dave, un uomo che ha costruito la sua fortuna riscuotendo debiti scaduti. E mentre i personaggi seguono i loro percorsi tra epifanie e rese dei conti, vecchi debiti da pagare e tentativi di comunicare con le generazioni future - le storie si muovono verso una convergenza ineluttabile e un epilogo che per il lettore sarà difficile dimenticare. A partire dai detriti, reali e metaforici, delle loro esistenze, Jonathan Miles costruisce un romanzo corale dagli incastri perfetti, tenuto insieme da una prosa impeccabile (e a tratti esilarante) e da una profonda riflessione etica sul concetto di spreco di consumo, per giungere alla conclusione che tutto, ma proprio tutto, può essere salvato. € 18,00

![]() ![]() Author: Miles Jonathan Publisher: Mariner Books Want Not is a highly inventive and corrosively funny story of our times, a three-pronged tale of human excess that sifts through the detritus of several disparate lives, all conjoined in their come-hell-or-high-water search for fulfillment. As the novel opens on Thanksgiving Day, readers are telescoped into the worlds of a freegan couple living off the grid in Manhattan, a once-prominent linguist struggling with midlife, and a New Jersey debt-collection magnate with a second chance at getting things right. Want and desire propel each one forward on their paths toward something, anything more, but when their worlds collide, briefly, randomly, yet irrevocably, the weight of that wanting ultimately undoes each of them, leaving them to pick up the pieces from what’s left behind. € 13,40

![]() ![]() Author: Miles Jonathan Publisher: Nutrimenti Nel luglio del 1816 la fregata francese 'Medusa' naufraga al largo delle coste del Senegal. Centoquarantasette disperati cercano la salvezza su una zattera che viene abbandonata in mare con pochissimi viveri. Per dodici giorni i superstiti si dilaniano, si uccidono, si cibano gli uni degli altri. All'alba del 17 luglio, ne vengono tratti in salvo appena quindici, sopravvissuti a quella terribile carneficina originata dalla disorganizzazione, dall'insipienza dei comandanti e alimentata dalla folle disperazione dei naufraghi. Théodore Géricault decide di usare quel crudo episodio di cronaca per un quadro che cambierà l'idea di pittura. Anch'egli naufrago dell'esistenza, con alle spalle una disperata e sfortunatissima storia d'amore, per nove mesi si chiude nel suo studio e lavora all'enorme tela di cinque metri per sette. Ma il dipinto, che descrive anche la tragedia della Restaurazione, la disillusione dell'età napoleonica, il mesto ripiegarsi degli entusiasmi rivoluzionari, si scontra con la banalità del pensare comune, con l'orrore per lo scandalo e porta il suo autore a una precoce fine. Storia emblematica di comandanti meschini, vittime sacrificali e artisti eroici, la vicenda della 'Zattera della Medusa' sembra trovare negli anni che stiamo vivendo un parallelismo perfetto che la porta a esser letta non come il resoconto di una cronaca del diciannovesimo secolo ma come la feroce e visionaria anticipazione del nostro presente. € 19,00

![]() ![]() Author: Miles Jonathan Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Bennie Ford, a fifty-three-year-old failed poet turned translator, is traveling to his estranged daughter’s wedding when his flight is canceled. Stuck with thousands of fuming passengers in the purgatory of O’Hare International Airport, he watches the clock tick and realizes that he will miss the ceremony. Frustrated, irate, and helpless, Bennie does the only thing he can: he starts to write a letter. But what begins as a hilariously excoriating demand for a refund soon becomes a lament for a life gone awry, for years misspent, talent wasted, and happiness lost. Bennie’s writing is infused with a sense of remorse for the actions of a lifetime—and made all the more urgent by the fading hope that if he can just make it to the wedding, he might have a chance to do something right. A margarita blend of outrage, humor, vulnerability, intelligence, and regret, Dear American Airlines gives new meaning to the term "airport novel" and announces the emergence of a major new talent in American fiction. € 13,10

![]() ![]() Author: Miles Jonathan Publisher: Grove Pr The Wreck of the Medusa is Jonathan Miles's spellbinding account of the most famous shipwreck before the Titanic. Drawing on contemporaneously published accounts and journals of survivors, Miles brilliantly reconstructs the ill-fated voyage and the events that inspired Theodore Gericault's magnificent painting The Raft of the Medusa. In July of 1816, the French frigate Medusa, bound for the Senegalese port colony of Saint Louis under the command of an incompetent royalist captain, hit a famously treacherous reef. In the chaos that ensued, the commander and a privileged few claimed the lifeboats. The rest were herded onto a makeshift raft and set adrift. Without a compass or many provisions, hit by a vicious storm the first night and exposed to sweltering heat during the following days, the group set upon each other: mayhem, mutiny, and murder ensued. When rescue arrived thirteen days later, only fifteen were alive. Two survivors' written account of the tragedy became an international best seller that exposed far-reaching corruption in Restoration France. The scandal inspired a young artist, Theodore Gericault, whose iconic depiction of suffering and hope won first prize at the Salon of 1819 and captivated viewers in the Louvre for centuries to come. € 14,30
