Îşi poate pierde un psihiatru minţile? Poate fi el păcălit, sedus, manipulat chiar în timpul şedinţelor în care ar trebui să deţină controlul asupra pacienţilor? Da, dacă o femeie dornică de răzbunare hotărăşte să joace rolul de pacientă neajutorată. Plin de revelaţii surprinzătoare, întocmai ca duelul unui psihanalist cu mintea omenească, romanul lui Yalom ne dezvăluie cât de vulnerabili suntem, fără excepţie, în faţa singurătăţii şi nevoii de iubire. Încrezător în propriile forţe, tânărul psihanalist Ernest Lash nu ia în seamă sfaturile mentorului său, Marshal Streider, ci re-curge, în timpul şedinţelor de terapie, la tehnici experimentale. Însă, în ciuda infa-tuării psihiatrilor, mintea omenească este un teritoriu încă necartografiat şi plin de primejdii: stabilind o relaţie sinceră - crede el - cu o nouă pacientă, Carolyne Leftman, Ernest îşi deschide tainiţele sufletului şi devine vulnerabil, neavând habar că femeia pe care îşi închipuie că o tra-tează doreşte de fapt să-l manipuleze şi să-l distrugă. Prins într-o paradoxală relaţie terapeutică, în care figura autoritară a medicului a cedat tentaţiei confesiunii şi i se supune pacientului dominator, Ernest va descoperi nebănuite adevăruri incomode despre sine şi despre natura umană, ale cărei taine credea că le cunoaşte.

Mihail Drumes – un caz? Fara indoiala ca da. Citit pe nerasuflate de largi categorii de public, de-a lungul a circa sapte decenii, Drumes nu s-a bucurat pana acum de o reala receptare critica. Una, se intelege, care sa tina cont ca majoritatea creatiilor sale apartin de drept paradigmei literaturii de consum si, prin urmare, nu pot fi judecate cu instrumente estetice. In interiorul acestui gen, Drumes e un autor respectabil, un profesionist cu bune intuitii si un scriitor caruia nu-i este interzis un anume fel de maiestrie. Formula sa este inimitabila, dupa cum o dovedeste si faptul ca, in plina economie libera, in care scriitorii de consum occidentali cunosc, in traducere romaneasca, succese remarcabile, intarzie sa apara un nou autor roman de profil, care sa domine scena literaturii populare scrise cu autoritatea cu care a facut-o Mihail Drumes.

Chiamarsi Luce non è affatto semplice, specie se di carattere non sei sempre solare.Peggio ancora se di cognome fai Di Notte, uno dei tanti scherzi di quello scombinato di tuo padre, scappato di casa senza un perché.Se poi abiti a Napoli nei Quartieri Spagnoli e ogni giorno andare al lavoro in Vespa è un terno al lotto, se sei un avvocato con laurea a pieni voti ma in ufficio ti affidano solo scartoffie e se hai un rottame di famiglia, ci sta che ogni tanto ti arraggi un po’.Capelli corti alla maschiaccio, jeans e anfibi, Luce è una giovane onesta e combattiva, rimasta bloccata in una realtà composta da una madre bigotta e infelice, da un fratello fuggito al Nord, da un amore per un bastardo Peter Pan e da un lavoro insoddisfacente.Come conforto, solo le passeggiate con Alleria, il suo Cane Superiore, unico vero confidente, e le chiacchiere con l’anziano vicino don Vittorio, un musicista filosofo in sedia a rotelle.Finché, un giorno, a Luce viene assegnata una causa per l’affidamento di un minore. All’improvviso, nella sua vita entrano un bambino saggio e molto speciale, un artista di strada giramondo e una rondine che non ha nessuna intenzione di migrare.La causa di affidamento nasconde molte ombre, ma è forse l’occasione per sciogliere nodi del passato e mettere ordine nella capatosta di Luce. Risolvendo un dubbio: andarsene, come hanno fatto il padre, il fratello e chiunque abbia seguito l’impulso di prendere il volo, o magari restare, trovando la felicità nel suo piccolo pezzettino di mondo?Dopo l’esordio folgorante con La tentazione di essere felici e La tristezza ha il sonno leggero, la nuova, straordinaria prova narrativa di Lorenzo Marone.Con una piccola, grande femmena del Sud che proprio non ci sta a farsi mettere i piedi in testa.

Cesare is a seventy-seven-year-old widower and cynical troublemaker. He has lived his whole life by his own rules and has no intention of changing now. Aside from an intermittent fling with a nurse called Rossana, he spends his days avoiding the old cat lady next door and screening calls from his children.But when the enigmatic Emma moves in next door with her strange and sinister husband, Cesare suspects there is more to their relationship than meets the eye. He enlists the other residents to help him investigate and soon discovers a new and unexpected sense of purpose that leads him to risk everything for a future he had never thought possible.

Per un ipocondriaco che vuole smettere di tormentare chi gli sta accanto con le proprie ossessioni, trovare una valvola di sfogo è una questione vitale. Ma come si impara ad affrontare la paura da soli? Forse raccontandosi. È quello che fa Lorenzo Marone, senza timore di mostrarsi vulnerabile, con una voce che all’ansia preferisce lo stupore e il divertimento. Scorrendo l’inventario delle sue fobie ognuno può incontrare un pezzo di sé e partecipare all’affannosa, autoironica ricerca di una via di fuga in discipline e pratiche disparate: dalla medicina alla fisica all’astronomia, dalla psicologia alla religione, dai tarocchi all’astrologia. Alla fine, se esorcizzare del tutto l’angoscia resta un miraggio, possiamo comunque reagire alla fragilità ammettendola. E magari accogliere, con un po’ di leggerezza, le imperfezioni che ci rendono unici.«Quel che vale per l’umanità, non vale per l’ipocondriaco. La prima chiara e lampante norma che costui deve seguire, un principio sul quale, bene o male, le varie forme di psicoterapia concordano, è questa: se vuoi mettere a tacere l’ossessione, non devi appoggiarti ad altri, non devi sviscerare le tue paure, non devi, diciamola tutta, rompere i coglioni di continuo a chi ti è accanto».
