De dagen van Glas
De dagen van Glas is het woest meeslepende verhaal van twee bewogen vrouwenlevens, wier paden elkaar kruisen gedurende drie noodlottige dagen ten tijde van het Italiaanse fascisme en het partizanenverzet. Redenta wordt geboren in armoede in 1924, op de dag die het tijdperk van Mussolini inluidt. In haar dorp wordt gefluisterd dat ze het ‘onheil over zich heeft’. Ze beleeft korte momenten van geluk met haar beste vriend Bruno, totdat hij op een dag spoorloos verdwijnt. Op achttienjarige leeftijd wordt ze door haar ouders uitgehuwelijkt aan de eenogige officier ‘Glas’, een sadistische fascist. Ondertussen groeit Iris op in een naburig dorp in betere omstandigheden. Ze vertrekt naar de stad en wordt hopeloos verliefd op de partizaan Diaz, bij wiens verzetsgroep ze zich aansluit. Wanneer ze hoort dat de fascisten haar familie op gruwelijke wijze hebben omgebracht, zint ze op wraak.

Presenze. Dark tales. La serie gotica della British Library
Quando la luna bagna i canali di una Venezia languida e tetra, un musicista insegue un canto misterioso, ignaro del potere omicida celato dietro quelle note malinconiche. Una dama rinascimentale, assassina di cinque mariti, torna in vita grazie alle letture di un giovane studioso, reso folle dalla sua bellezza crudele. Esiste seduzione senza possessione? Un viaggio oscuro tra i dedali della psiche, dove l'ossessione di un passato misterioso si trasforma in un'angoscia senza fine.

Ossessioni
Nelle otto storie raccolte in questo volume, qui offerte in una nuova traduzione, l'autrice si muove con vera maestria sul labile confine tra la narrativa fantastica e l'indagine psicologica, scavando nella mente e nelle emozioni anche violente dei protagonisti per creare situazioni che si sposano con strane forze ed elementi fuori dall'ordinario. A questo si aggiungono il notevole gusto per le ambientazioni e il suo modo particolare di tratteggiare le figure femminili - in special modo l'archetipo della femme fatale - e di guardare al passato e ai pericoli che comporta, tutti elementi che caratterizzano la sua scrittura e le hanno fatto guadagnare di diritto un posto speciale nel panorama della letteratura di genere, ma non solo, a cavallo tra il diciannovesimo e il ventesimo secolo. I fantasmi esistono, sono tra di noi, ma si manifestano solo quando vengono evocati dalle ossessioni, dalle passioni (e perché no, dall'odio) che provano i vivi.

Hauntings
Vernon Lee (1856-1935) was the pen name of Violet Paget, a British author of supernatural fiction. Born in France to British expatriate parents, Paget spent most of her life in continental Europe. A committed feminist and pacifist, she joined the Union of Democratic Control during the First World War to express her opposition to British militarism. A lesbian, Paget had relationships with Mary Robinson, Amy Levy, and Clementina Anstruther-Thomson throughout her life. Paget, a dedicated follower of Walter Pater’s Aesthetic movement, lived for many years in Florence, where she gained a reputation as a leading scholar of the Italian Renaissance. In addition to her work in art history, Paget was a leading writer of short fiction featuring supernatural figures and themes. Among her best known works are Hauntings (1890), a collection of four chilling tales, and “Prince Alberic and the Snake Lady,” a story which appeared in an 1895 issue of The Yellow Book, a controversial periodical that featured the works of Aubrey Beardsley, George Gissing, Henry James, and William Butler Yeats. Although Paget was largely forgotten by the mid-twentieth century, feminist scholars have rekindled attention in her pioneering work as a leading proponent of Aestheticism.
