Titres dans Satire

Il Marchese Del Grillo, altri dicono Duca Del Grillo, fu un gentiluomo romano, nato fra il 1730 e il 1740 e morto verso il 1800, cioè più di ottant’anni fa. Quantunque non mi sia riuscito di apprendere, per quante ricerche abbia fatto, il nome con cui egli fu battezzato, nè la data precisa della sua nascita, ho potuto verificare, dalle affermazioni recise dei suoi discendenti, che egli è un personaggio storico, vero, realmente esistito e che molte delle bizzarre avventure...

For adults. This is a silly little book for Halloweenie times. It’s kitschy, fun and weird humor. Of course, there is gore and violence. For me, it is a satire of our favorite Halloween slasher movies where the villain is a crazy, stalking, relentless, weirdo-killer, dangerous, a little silly and strange. And just won’t die!

The impressions show that needs no introduction - with bonus End of Year specials Radio 4’s award-winning and hugely popular comedy show is back with yet another helping of political-vituperation, media-mauling and celebrity-savaging. Sit back and treat your ears to a bumper edition of superb...

From the bestselling author of Fight Club comes a “dark satire about the inhuman condition” (The Toronto Star) about a string of mysterious high school disappearances, the seedy underbellies of billionaires, and the tough choices we make in the face of an uncertain future. In Shock Induction...

In Leonce und Lena flieht der gelangweilte Prinz Leonce seiner arrangierten Hochzeit und landet ausgerechnet in Italien – nur um dort auf die ebenfalls entwischte Lena zu treffen und sich unversehens zu verlieben. Büchners einziges Lustspiel zählt zu den schönsten und scharfsinnigsten deutschen Komödien – mit Witz, Ironie und Gesellschaftssatire. Sven Görtz verleiht der ungekürzten Lesung eine lebendige, humorvolle Interpretation, die den spritzigen Dialogen gerecht wird.

Die Herausforderungen werden diverser. Wem kann man noch trauen? Den Topkadern entgleitet die Kontrolle.

In the year 6969, a city corrupted by misogyny and fascism... A genetic experiment teams with a woman bred to be the perfect waitress... Will they become heroes? Will they become BFFS? Maybe they can become both!

Paranoid, wilful, lazy, the young Adolf Hitler turns up in Liverpool to stay with his brother Alois and sister-in-law Bridget. Hailed by Alois as a student and an artist, Adolf soon irritates his family beyond measure by his constant sponging and his tendency to get into serious trouble with the English. Surely this is a young man who will never amount to anything.

Es ist dunkel in Leipzig. Alles schläft. Alles? Nein. Ein Kind leistet erbittert Widerstand. Der Vater, dem Autor nicht ganz unähnlich, zieht das letzte Register: eine Spazierfahrt mit dem Buggy. Mit ungewissem Ausgang und nicht vorhersehbarer Dauer. Wie die Odyssee. In klein. Und ohne Schiff. Dafür mit Sirenen. Ein Hörbuch für alle, die Kinder haben. Oder auf keinen Fall welche wollen.

Spreadsheets are spells. Dragons are unionized. Nachos are a sacrament. Buckle up. When actuary Ptolemy “Tolly” Blackthorne inherits his grandmother’s scarf—a knitted, contraband probability anchor—he also inherits her secret: a multi-dimensional dragon-racing circuit that runs on risk, wit, and a frankly alarming amount of nacho cheese. Tolly’s talent for modeling disaster was supposed to keep him safe; instead it drafts him into a portal-hopping season where vertical Niagara roars upward, magma judges enforce “Fun is mandatory,” and Mars rovers form a picket line for better dental.

In a realm ruled by idiots, their only hope is the Fool. You’d think an army of zombie trolls and undead ogres would catch the nobility’s attention. You’d be wrong. The rulers of Halfsock are deeply in denial. Besides, they have taxes to avoid, neighbors to plunder, and relatives to backstab. With war looming, a goblin latrine slave named Shelly resolves to save Castle Halfsock from itself. He must take on many roles… jester, detective, spy, and political fixer.

Una breve parodia omaggio a Marco Malvaldi e al mondo delle sue narrazioni.

“Banned by 1000 Churches!” And yes, Kingdom's Con Men would indeed be banned if some people had their way. But it's nothing to be afraid of, confused about, angry or offended over. Kingdom’s Con Men strives to be thought-provoking, that’s all. Beyond being a mere crime novel, it takes its time to explore why its two scammers--one an Atheist, the other an ordained minister--decide to take to the road to conduct their cons, specifically targeting corrupt megachurch ministers. In the process, it offers a satirical overview of the current evangelical landscape.

How Did It All Happen? follows a tiny celestial ops team in a glass room above Earth. Flo manages the rollout, Callisto guards her conscience, Anthrax spins the brand, and Dave lives inside the dashboard. Their job is simple in theory, optimize belief. Their result is two thousand years of miracles, memos, schisms, and fix-it patches, while a stubbornly human Jesus keeps choosing mercy over metrics.

A-list actor Peter Compton and producing partner Marci Levy exist in the rarefied air of Hollywood’s elite. Their status as a married power couple is unmatched, their presence in any room transformative and god-like. But as their private jet lands in Atlanta to begin production on a tentpole superhero movie, even their privileged position will come under threat by the massive pressures of such an undertaking.
