A "classic," essential for fully understanding the artistic dichotomy that characterizes all of Young's career, namely the division between a subdued folk rock and a wild, electrified rock. (cit. wiki)

Completed by Neil Young himself, with a track-by-track description of each song, Decade is a representative collection of almost every album released during his career up to 1977, except for "Four Way Street," a live album released with Crosby, Stills & Nash.

    In truth, this beautiful collection is entirely lacking in pieces taken from "Time Fades Away," the unjustly unloved '73 album by Neil.

Considered "garage rock," its name is a play on words based on the producer Daniel Lanois, who stated in an interview: "We recorded a couple of acoustic solo tracks, but the rest is very electric" and "there's no band, but I heavily contributed to the sound."

There is a huge difference between side A of the record and side B: the first side is much more traditional and musically conservative than the second, it celebrates the countryside over the city and family values and roles (even if with a certain irony not always grasped by country enthusiasts), work, attachment to one’s country; on the second side, more difficult themes are tackled, such as drugs, racism, depression, and aging. (source: wiki)

To say that I loved this record is an understatement; with it, I learned to chew through English a little less poorly, but let’s leave the rest where it is, otherwise I'll start shedding big tears down my rough cheeks...

All the songs were written by Neil Young.

I give this album a 10

The world is turnin',

The title of the album can be understood both as the abbreviation of the name of the Aztec emperor Montezuma and as the name of the California beach near Neil's house. (Source: wiki)

The album was heavily criticized at the time of its release, but as often happens with Neil Young, it would be strongly reassessed in the years to come.

Here also plays my all-time favorite bluesman, J.J. Cale, on electric guitar.

The story is set in the scorching summer of 1978 in the countryside of an unidentified region in Southern Italy, yet evoked with rare descriptive power. In this landscape dominated by the contrast between the blinding sunlight and the darkness of night, Ammaniti skillfully alternates between comedy, the world of childhood relationships, the language and the quirky wisdom of children, their tenacity, the strength of friendship, and the drama of betrayal. And at the same time, he outlines an unforgettable array of adults. (cit. Einaudi)

The great charge of eleven unrestrained, intemperate, splatter-format knights of the Apocalypse in the aisles full of every good thing of supermarket Italia.

A barber wakes up early, gets out of bed, breaks the freshly baked bread, and sees inside "something whitish": a nose.
Thus begins one of the most famous tales in all of literature, alongside in this collection four other stories, no less significant and renowned: The Portrait, where a painting carries with it, over the years, all the evil that was in the soul of the character represented; The Perspective, a tale of encounters and fatal or fleeting passions against the ever-changing, sometimes unsettling backdrop of Nevsky Prospekt; The Diary of a Madman, the diary of a lonely man spiraling into madness; The Cloak, a drama of a poor clerk who suffers the theft of his new coat, having accustomed an already miserable life to further, pathetic restrictions. (from Adelphi)

Nikolaj Gogol’: Le anime morte

- It was originally published under the title The Adventures of Chichikov, with the subtitle Poem imposed by the Tsarist censors. It comically recounts the misadventures of a small-time con artist from the provinces of the Russian Empire in the 1820s; the novel is also a fervent denunciation of human mediocrity.
- The initial idea for the book was suggested to Gogol' by Pushkin and is based on a news item.
- This novel is a watershed in Russian literature, which until that moment seemed oblivious to certain realities...

- It is a satirical play, considered one of the masterpieces of the Russian writer. The characters are corrupt, opportunists, businessmen, exploiters that Gogol' sculpts with ironic involvement as exaggerated, grotesque, duplicitous, ready for anything.
- We are in a small town lost in the vast expanse of Russia, suddenly awakened from its everyday routine of normal and dishonest prevarication by the news of the arrival, from St. Petersburg, of a general inspector, an auditor, sent there to inspect the local notables. Everyone is in turmoil and afraid. Imagine when they believe that the general inspector, in disguise, has already arrived in town. In reality, it is a broke young man who immediately understands the benefits he can gain from the situation. (from wiki)

The reader will find a selection from "The Collection of Stones and Sand" by Muju, a Japanese master of the thirteenth century, and other classic Zen texts, up to the end of the nineteenth century.

“Zen is not a sect but an experience.”
From this experience, which centers around the notion of satori, "enlightenment," an immense literature has emerged, with numerous branches, starting from the sixth century in China (under the name of Ch’an) and from the twelfth century to the present day in Japan (under the name of Zen). - quote from Adelphi -
