Hearn Lian Title : Il canto dell'usignolo. La saga degli Otori. Vol. 1
Author: Hearn Lian
Publisher: Ne/oN

In un Giappone medievale mitologico, il giovane Takeo cresce in seno a una comunità pacifica che condanna la violenza ma che sarà massacrata dagli uomini di Iida, il signore del clan dei Tohan. Takeo è salvato dal nobile Shigeru, del clan degli Otori, si troverà al centro delle lotte sanguinarie tra i signori della guerra e dovrà arrendersi al proprio destino. Ma chi è davvero Takeo? Contadino, nobile o assassino? Da dove arrivano i suoi prodigiosi poteri? In un mondo fuori dal tempo, dominato da codici d'onore e da rigidi rituali di una tradizione millenaria, Takeo incontrerà per la prima volta l'amore: dovrà forse scegliere tra quest'amore, la sua devozione al nobile Shigeru e il suo desiderio di vendetta? La sua ricerca lo condurrà fino alla fortezza di Inuyama, a camminare sul "pavimento dell'usignolo". Ma quella notte l'usignolo canterà?

Hearn Lian Title : Lo splendore della luna. La saga degli Otori. Vol. 3
Author: Hearn Lian
Publisher: E/O

Breve è la felicità di Takeo, l'erede degli Otori, e della sua sposa Kaede, signora di Shirakawa e Maruyama. Fujiwara, il nobile di corte che si riteneva fidanzato con lei, non le perdona di avere sposato Takeo. Arai Daiichi, il signore della guerra ormai sovrano dell'intero paese, non sopporta che i due abbiano osato convolare a nozze senza chiedergli il permesso. Inoltre i perfidi zii di Lord Shigeru attendono nell'inespugnabile Hagi la sconfitta di un erede che non riconoscono. "Dovrai combattere cinque battaglie per ottenere la pace: quattro le vincerai, una la perderai" aveva detto la profetessa della montagna a Takeo. E la profezia sembra avverarsi. Terzo e ultimo volume della grande saga ambientata in un Giappone immaginario, "Lo splendore della luna" narra la fase cruciale della leggenda degli Otori in un susseguirsi di battaglie ed emozionanti colpi di scena. Con la consueta sapienza narrativa, che coniuga liriche note paesistiche a crude immagini della follia umana, Lian Hearn conduce il lettore nei meandri più intricati e suggestivi dell'intero ciclo, mostrando come, sotto il chiarore di una luna "che mai chiede a chi appartenga la notte", umili e potenti, eroi e malvagi siano, in fondo, solo "pedine sulla scacchiera del destino".

Hearn Lian Title : Le nevi dell'esilio. La saga degli Otori. Vol. 2
Author: Hearn Lian
Publisher: E/O

Takeo, ormai erede del potente clan degli Otori, si è impegnato a unirsi ai ranghi criminali della Tribù, rinnegando la sua educazione pacifica, abbandonando ciò che gli appartiene di diritto, terre, denaro e potere, e rinunciando persino all'amore per Kaede. Ma la Tribù potrà davvero condurre Takeo verso il proprio destino? Il cammino che sceglierà lo spingerà in un vortice di pericoli, di sfide e di sacrifici, nel cuore delle montagne ghiacciate delle Tre Terre. Kaede, principale pedina nei giochi di potere dei signori della guerra, dovrà fare ricorso alla sua intelligenza, alla sua bellezza e alla sua tenacia per imporsi in un mondo di uomini potenti e per proteggere il suo prezioso segreto. Mentre cadono le prime nevi, Takeo e Kaede cercano di perseguire i loro scopi nel cuore di un Giappone feudale, crudele e magnifico. Riuscirà il loro amore a sopravvivere alla guerra e all'odio, alle alleanze promesse o infrante?

Hearn Lian, Shah Neil (NRT) Title : Emperor of the Eight Islands
Author: Hearn Lian, Shah Neil (NRT)
Publisher: Highbridge Co

In the opening pages of the action-packed Book One of Lian Hearn's epic Tale of Shikanoko series--all of which will be published in 2016--a future lord is dispossessed of his birthright by a scheming uncle, a mountain sorcerer imbues a mask with the spirit of a great stag for a lost young man, a stubborn father forces his son to give up his wife to his older brother, and a powerful priest meddles in the succession to the Lotus Throne, the child who is the rightful heir to the emperor barely escaping the capital in the arms of his sister. And that is just the beginning. As destiny weaves its rich tapestry, a compelling drama plays out against a background of wild forests, elegant castles, hidden temples, and savage battlefields. This is the medieval Japan of Lian Hearn's imagination, where animal spirits clash with warriors and children navigate a landscape as serene as it is deadly.

Bolton Andrew, Galliano John (CON), Geczy Adam (CON), Hearn Maxwell K. (CON), King Homay (CON) Title : China Through the Looking Glass
Author: Bolton Andrew, Galliano John (CON), Geczy Adam (CON), Hearn Maxwell K. (CON), King Homay (CON)
Publisher: Metropolitan Museum of Art

For centuries, China’s export arts—jade, silks, porcelains, and, more recently, cinema—have fueled Western fantasies of an exotic East and served as enduring sources of inspiration for fashion. This stunning publication explores the influence of Chinese aesthetics on designers, including Giorgio Armani, Christian Dior, Jean Paul Gaultier, Karl Lagerfeld, Ralph Lauren, Alexander McQueen, and Yves Saint Laurent. Drawing upon Chinese decorative arts, cinema, and costume—notably imperial court robes, the close-fitting cheongsam, and the unisex Mao suit—their designs are fantastical pastiches of anachronistic motifs. As in the game of “telephone,” the process of cultural translation transforms the source material into ingeniously original fashions that are products solely of the designers’ imaginations.

In a similar way, contemporary Chinese film directors render fanciful, highly stylized evocations of various epochs in China’s history—demonstrating that China’s imagery is equally seductive to artists in the East and further inspiring today’s designers. Juxtaposing modern fashions and film stills with their forebears in fine and decorative arts and historical dress, DisOrient reveals the rich and ongoing creative dialogue between East and West, past and present.

Hearn Lian Title : The Harsh Cry of the Heron
Author: Hearn Lian
Publisher: Riverhead Books

The epic conclusion to the bestselling Tales of the Otori-"one of the most thrilling new series of our time."*

The Harsh Cry of the Heron is the rich and stirring finale to a series whose imaginative vision has enthralled millions of readers worldwide, and an extraordinary novel that stands as a thrilling achievement in its own right.

A dazzling epic of warfare and sacrifice, passionate revenge, treacherous betrayal, and unconquerable love, The Harsh Cry of the Heron takes the storytelling achievement of Hearn's fantastic medieval Japanese world to startling new heights of drama and action. Fifteen years of peace and prosperity under the rule of Lord Otori Takeo and his wife Kaede is threatened by a rogue network of assassins, the resurgence of old rivalries, the arrival of foreigners bearing new weapons and religion, and an unfulfilled prophecy that Lord Takeo will die at the hand of a member of his own family.

The Harsh Cry of the Heron is the ultimate conclusion to the Tales of the Otori series that both completes the characters' lives and brilliantly illuminates unexpected aspects of the entire Otori saga.
