The Story of My Life is the explosive and exhilarating autobiography by the infamous libertine Giacomo Casanova. Intense and scandalous, Casanova's extraordinary adventures take the listener on an incredible voyage across 18th-century Europe - from France to Russia, Poland to Spain and Turkey to Germany, with Venice at their heart. He falls madly in love, has wild flings and delirious orgies, and encounters some of the most brilliant figures of his time, including Catherine the Great, Louis XV and Benjamin Franklin. He holds a verbal dual with Voltaire and finds himself hauled before the court multiple times.

Ezio Greggio ripercorre quasi mezzo secolo di carriera senza un attimo di respiro: retroscena e aneddoti divertenti, scherzi combinati a colleghi e malcapitati, trasferte per serate di cabaret che sembrano episodi di una fiction. E i racconti esclusivi legati a tante amicizie: da Gianfranco D'Angelo a Mel Brooks, da John Landis a Enzo Iacchetti. Vediamo scorrere la storia dello spettacolo dalla nascita delle Tv private, al cinema degli anni '80, fino a Hollywood e Montecarlo. In queste pagine c'è la televisione ma c'è, soprattutto, la vita e l'autentica felicità di una stagione speciale.

Paris, octobre 1945. Pierre Laval est condamné à mort par la Haute Cour de Justice.

Mais il y a l'autre Laval : l'Auvergnat attaché à ses origines, l'avocat socialiste et pacifiste, le maire inamovible d'Aubervilliers, le père oublié des assurances sociales, l'héritier de Briand, le diplomate qui fait face à Hoover, Mussolini, Staline et Hitler.

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Nancy Tuckerman were friends over seven decades. Nancy almost never talked to people writing books about Jackie. She made an exception for me because I was working with her former colleagues. She and I met for the first time at the Red Lion Inn on a cold day in February. She was wearing a plain brown sweater and hiding behind a newspaper. At first she was stiff with me. But at lunch the young waiter poured her a cold cup of coffee. When he stepped away, we both laughed. That was how we began a friendlier and franker conversation that lasted 10 years.
