Hip Pain Herpes Outbreak

The Librarian wishes you Merry Xmas!


... filled with the Xmas-Books! Just as these.

Charles Dickens, A Christmas Carol . The book of Chistmas. Not a year goes by that I do not want to read it is ... never able to figure out if I like the most Scrooge appeased or the old one!

John Grisham, Christmas with the Kranks . Hilarious! Surely the funniest book on the subject of my library. Highly recommended for those holidays are a bit 'tight ...

Crimes Christmas (Polillo) and Yellow Christmas (Cairo publisher) are two collections of short stories on the theme, topped by a lot 'of thriller. Because even in this time of death will not go on holiday ... indeed!

always told, but of a different kind, in two other collections: The fourth king
magus (Marsilio), setting to one where are the Natali O. Henry, Pier Vittorio Tondelli and Pier Paolo Pasolini, and Christmas stories (Einaudi paperback), translated by the great Nico Orengo, where you'll be spoiled for choice Collodi, Alcott, Dostoevsky, D'Annunzio , Calvin, Maupassant, Nabokov ... In short, a feast for all tastes.

Last but not least, the last purchase of a few days ago: The death follows the Magi by Hans Tuzzi. A headline in the middle atmosphere, even if not a book for Christmas. It will surely be another entertaining reading by this author (actually a pseudonym) which I very much loved, whose protagonist is a commissioner in the Milan of the eighties, the first investigation took place right in the world of bibliophiles ... In short, definitely my kind!

I wish you a wonderful, funny, bookish Christmas. E. .. good reading, of course under the tree!
