Avete mai sognato di partecipare al Campionato Mondiale di pallastrada, organizzato dal Grande Bastardo, protettore degli orfani di tutto il mondo?

Subito don Biffero, il priore Zopilote, don Bracco e il giornalista Fimicoli, in coppia con il fotografo Rosalino, si lanciano all'inseguimento. Tutto intorno, una folla di personaggi bizzarri, stravaganti e coloratissimi nella tradizione del miglior Benni.

Story
Una tranquilla notte di regime, che assomiglia a un febbricitante sabato notte delle nostre città popolato da allegre brigate di gerarchetti clarkopodi e clarette che ridono in posa, "come un set di spot di brut". Uno strano personaggio, un po' Marlowe un po' mago, titolare di una delle più antiche magie del mondo, passa le notti tra nostalgie e sbronze colossali al bar Apocalypso.

Story
Uno sceneggiatore di Tangeri che soffre gravemente di insonnia scopre che per poter finalmente dormire deve uccidere qualcuno. Incomincia da sua madre. Sembra assurdo, anzi è assurdo - è sempre stato un uomo onesto, rispettoso, gentile - ma solo uccidendo, come in un gioco surreale, guadagna dei punti-sonno. Per minimizzare il problema, decide di limitarsi a persone già in fin di vita; la sfida è riuscire a essere lì, al loro capezzale, un attimo prima che spirino da sé. Il protagonista dà così il via a imprese rocambolesche per infilarsi nelle camere di ospedale.

C'era una volta un uomo fatto di salsicce. E c'era una volta una ragazza vegetariana. L'uomo fatto di salsicce aggredisce la ragazza vegetariana. La ragazza vegetariana torna a casa col sangue che cola lungo le cosce, sutura la ferita con ago e filo e prova a fare come se niente fosse. Ma fare come se niente fosse è difficile, perché l'uomo fatto di salsicce non smette di perseguitarla: spiandola dal bosco vicino a scuola, affacciandosi a una finestra, spuntando da un lampione.

Story
"'Io non so com'è la gente!' soleva ripetere don Marchino per lo meno una ventina di volte al giorno, insaccandosi nelle spalle e aprendo le mani a ventaglio davanti al petto, con gli angoli della bocca contratti in giù: 'Io non so com'è la gente!'".
"Benedizione" inizia così, con le parole di Don Marchino, parroco di campagna che sembra vivere in un mondo tutto suo, completamente indifferente a tutto quello che lo circonda. Ancora una volta Pirandello ci regala un piccolo grande gioiello, una novella che che ci mette di fronte all'assurdità della vita e della morte.

Story
"Sylvie e Bruno", pubblicato nel 1889, è il terzo e ultimo romanzo di Lewis Carroll, ben più famoso come autore di "Alice nel paese delle meraviglie". Il romanzo è piuttosto eterogeneo, e parti decisamente adatte ai ragazzi con semplici storie e filastrocche, si alternano con discussioni di tipo filosofico e religioso, o dialoghi che si svolgono sulla vena dell'assurdo, tipici dell'autore, per cui si situa decisamente tra romanzi per adulti (che abbiano vivo, in sé, il loro bambino interiore).

Anthony Fauci is arguably the most famous – and most revered – doctor in the world today. His role guiding America sanely and calmly through Covid (and through the torrents of Trump) earned him the trust of millions during one of the most terrifying periods in modern American history, but this was only the most recent of the global epidemics in which Dr. Fauci played a major role. His crucial role in researching HIV and bringing AIDS into sympathetic public view and his leadership in navigating the Ebola, SARS, West Nile, and anthrax crises, make him truly an American hero.
