Story
At the age of 38, Danish scientist Rikke Schmidt Kjærgaard is struck down by an acute bout of bacterial meningitis. Weeks later, she wakes from a coma in intensive care to find herself “locked in,” unable to show she is conscious except by blinking her eyes. Despite a mere 5 percent chance of survival, she makes a miraculous recovery and returns to the world - painfully learning how to breathe, move, eat, and speak again, even resume her work as a scientist.

Story
Australia es mucho más que un enorme país. Y mucho más que la isla más grande del mundo. Es un universo aparte. Árida, con una climatología extrema y una fauna atípica (y en muchos casos muy peligrosa), Australia también tiene gentes hospitalarias, ciudades muy modernas y otros muchos secretos por descubrir. ¿Cómo no enamorarse de un lugar fascinante que no se parece a ningún otro?

Story
L'autore di "Breve storia di (quasi) tutto" ci accompagna nel viaggio più affascinante: quello dentro di noi. Bill Bryson è un insostituibile compagno di viaggio, qualunque siano la meta e il percorso. Questa volta ci guida in una interessante passeggiata all'interno del corpo umano, dalla testa ai piedi. Molti di noi, infatti, non hanno un'idea precisa di come il corpo funzioni in tutte le sue parti e di cosa succeda al suo interno, della sua capacità di difendersi dalle malattie e di guarire, ma anche dei numerosi modi in cui qualcosa può andare storto.

Story
La infancia de un chico estadounidense que creció en la década de 1950. Después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Estados Unidos entró en una época de bonanza como no se había visto antes. El estilo de vida americano se desplegó envuelto en un aura de felicidad e ingenuidad: se podían comprar hasta cien marcas de helados, la mayoría de los hogares disponían de televisores para ver a Roy Rogers, el vaquero cantarín, y la gente creía que tomarse dos o tres cócteles antes de cenar era saludable.

Story
L'Appalachian Trail, che dalla Georgia al Maine taglia quattordici stati americani snodandosi per oltre 3400 chilometri, è il capostipite di tutti i sentieri a lunga percorrenza e dimora di una delle più grandiose foreste della zona temperata del globo. All'età di quarantaquattro anni Bill Bryson, in compagnia dell'amico Stephen Katz, decisamente sovrappeso e fuori forma, si cimenta nell'impresa di percorrere il leggendario sentiero. Nessuno di loro ha la minima cognizione delle norme elementari di sopravvivenza nella natura selvaggia.

Story
Some say that the first hint that Bill Bryson was not of Planet Earth came when his mother sent him to school in lime-green Capri pants. Others think it all started with his discovery, at the age of six, of a woollen jersey of rare fineness. Across the moth-holed chest was a golden thunderbolt. It may have looked like an old college football sweater, but young Bryson knew better.

Uno dei più amati autori di libri di viaggio alle prese con un itinerario a dir poco insolito: l’esplorazione della sua dimora inglese, un’ex canonica vittoriana situata in uno sperduto villaggio del Norfolk. La sfida, condotta con divertita maestria, è quella di posare su quanto ci circonda - ambienti, pezzi d’arredamento, utensili e dettagli all’apparenza insignificanti - uno sguardo diverso, attento e capace di svelarci la loro più intima natura di stratificati e misteriosi depositi di Storia.

Dette gør den formidable videnskabsformidler Bill Bryson, forfatter til bl.a. bestselleren "En kort historie om næsten alt", noget ved. I "Kroppen - en guide for indehavere" tager han os med på en dybt fascinerende rejse fra top til tå og anskueliggør det vidunder, vores legeme er.

So etwas gelingt nur Bill Bryson: Ein Spaziergang durch sein Haus führt ihn zur Geschichte der Menschheit. Er wandelt von Zimmer zu Zimmer und stößt dabei auf die Geschichte des Essens, Schlafens, Sexes und der Hygiene und macht auch vor Wanzen, Skorbut, sogar der Leichenräuberei nicht halt. Eben ein Abriss dessen, was der Menschheit alles passiert ist, seit sie sesshaft wurde fundiert, anschaulich und humorvoll, wie wir Bill Bryson kennen.

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.

King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.
