Our recommendations

The complete Persepolis, by Mariane Satrapi

Discover life in Iran throughout the last 30 years in a touching but ironic and easy reading comic. Also a major movie

An intense, intelligent and complex novel that will allow you to live through life in Budapest throughout the communist era, touchy and surprising


Gomorra, by Saviano

An incredible travel in the life around Naples, to understand that organised crime nowadays is much more widespread and part of everyday life than anybody could ever imagined. the young writer has been sentenced to death since publishing the book, now an oscar candidate movie as well.


Into Thin Air, John Krakauer

A breathtaking true story on top of the world, a dramatic adventure told by one of the survivors of an unforgettable climb to mount Everest.
