Tutto comincia quando Oriana viene spedita a casa dell'uomo del secolo: Christian Dior. Lei lo aveva già intervistato nel 1949 dopo averlo braccato nella hall di un albergo fiorentino. Dieci anni dopo è a Parigi pronta a non cedere: «Quando gli chiedo perché sia ancora scapolo, mi risponde con voce finalmente decisa: "Mademoiselle, dedico alle donne quattro quinti della mia vita. Quando entro in casa, non voglio più vederle né sentirne parlare". Infatti non ho visto che camerieri». La cultura pop che si fa largo nel mondo risorto dal dopoguerra scopre anche gli stilisti.

Come nasce Oriana Fallaci, giornalista e scrittrice? Pubblicati sul «Mattino dell'Italia centrale» di Firenze tra il 1947 e il 1953, gli articoli raccolti da Giuseppe Fedi e Piero Meucci documentano la nascita dello stile e della potenza narrativa che presto avrebbero imposto al mondo la figura di Oriana. Apprendista, Fallaci è inviata in situazioni di ogni tipo: processi, eventi mondani con ospiti illustri come Dior o Gable. Ma è nei suoi reportage sulla condizione femminile che vediamo nascere la determinazione e il talento di una delle firme più importanti del Novecento.

Herodotus, the fifth-century chronicler, scarcely figured in the curriculum when famed Polish writer and traveler Ryszard Kapuscinski attended university in the 1950s. Ryszard became a foreign correspondent who hoped to go abroad, perhaps to Czechoslovakia. Instead, he was sent to India—the first stop on a decades-long tour of the world. His only companion on his travels was a volume of Herodotus. In his journey across continents, Kapuscinski discovers his life's work: to understand and describe the non-Western world, in all its variety, through his still-virginal Western eyes.

Best known for his hysterically funny and often scathing restaurant reviews for the London Sunday Times, journalist Adrian Gill writes about his near-fatal alcoholism in this extraordinary lucid memoir. By his early 20s, at London's prestigious Saint Martin's art school, Gill was entrenched in his addiction. He writes from the handful of memories that remain, of drunken conquests with anonymous women, of waking to morbid hallucinations, of emptying jacket pockets that "were like tiny crime scenes".

En la que sin duda es su crónica más emocionante, Juan Villoro cuenta cómo estuvo en condiciones de comparar la intensidad de dos de los terremotos más terribles que ha sufrido América Latina: el de 1985 en la ciudad de México y el de 2010 en Santiago de Chile. Convencido de que estos desastres deben contarse con las más representativas de las voces implicadas, Villoro tomó los relatos de sus compañeros de temblor y construyó un concierto de impresiones en el que no faltan el suspenso o el absurdo.

Catherine et Jean-Pierre ont vécu au cœur de la Soule, l'une des sept provinces du Pays Basque (trois en France, quatre en Espagne), dans un village baptisé Viodos, à côté de la ville de Mauléon, 5000 habitants, connue depuis longtemps pour sa production de sandales, et fameuse naguère pour son équipe de rugby, opiniâtre et courageuse. Ils ne sont jamais sortis de ce petit territoire et il me semble qu'ils y ont été heureux. En tout cas, à leur façon, ils ont été tous les deux de formidables soldats de Mai 68. Catherine était ma maman. Jean-Pierre était mon papa.
