The King in Yellow is a collection of stories interwoven loosely by the elements of the play, including the central figure himself.

"Io non vivo senza te" una frase intesa spesso come il segno di un legame intenso, un modo di dire usato per rappresentare una storia romantica. In troppi casi è invece l'espressione di una vera e propria dipendenza, di una relazione malata che rende infelici molte persone, più di frequente donne. La dipendenza affettiva è un disturbo ancora poco conosciuto, dal quale è difficile liberarsi perché ha radici profonde nel cuore della famiglia d'origine, dove sperimentiamo le prime forme di attaccamento e impariamo, quando va tutto bene, l'amore per noi stessi.

However, the Third Regimental Combat Team—a.k.a. the Eridani Light Horse—leaves one flagpole bare, as a reminder of the death of the Star League, and the other pole flies the Light Horse’s unit and regimental flags at half-mast.

"Il leggere per la prima volta un grande libro in età matura è un piacere straordinario: diverso rispetto a quello d'averlo letto in gioventù. La gioventù comunica alla lettura come a ogni altra esperienza un particolare sapore e una particolare importanza; mentre in maturità si apprezzano molti dettagli e livelli e significati in più. Ci dovrebbe essere un tempo nella vita adulta dedicato a rivisitare le letture più importanti della gioventù. Se i libri sono rimasti gli stessi noi siamo certamente cambiati, e l'incontro è un avvenimento del tutto nuovo." (L'autore).

In her moving and insightful new book, Joan Didion reassesses parts of her life, her work, her history and ours. A native Californian, Didion applies her scalpel-like intelligence to the state’s ethic of ruthless self-sufficiency in order to examine that ethic’s often tenuous relationship to reality. Combining history and reportage, memoir and literary criticism, Where I Was From explores California’s romances with land and water; its unacknowledged debts to railroads, aerospace, and big government; the disjunction between its code of individualism and its fetish for prisons.
