(W) Lise Lunge-Larsen (A) Gareth Hinds Did you know that 'museums' were initially temples built to worship the nine muses, the goddesses of the arts? That 'Janus' was the god of the doorways and hallways, and after him we have named our janitors? Where did these words - and other words, such as chaos, genius, nemesis, panic, echo, and narcissus - come from? From the ancient stories of the Greeks, stories that rang so true and wise that the names of the characters have survived for centuries as words we use every day. The brief stories here not only impart the subtle wisdom of these ancient tales, but make us understand the words, and our own world, more deeply. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

For seventy years Antoine de Saint-Exupéry's The Little Prince, a whimsical story with a fairy tale touch, has captured the hearts and minds of its readers. Joann Sfar has endeavored to recreate this beloved story, both honoring the original and stretching it to new heights. All the Little Prince cares about is being useful to the flower he's left behind on his very small planet, with only a few thorns to protect him from the world. Sfar's comic-book illustrations of the wide-eyed boy prince and disheveled pilot he encounters in the African desert are edgier than the original watercolors, and his style and humor work modern magic.
