View Rights PortalWell-known and experienced sailor Arved Fuchs has witnessed the disastrous developments of climate change first hand. He pointed out the urgency decades ago but politics and society have ignored and trivialized the problem for far too long. In dialogue with energy experts, scientists and local people, best practice examples, perspectives and ideas of individual communities are presented to counteract the powerlessness. The motto of the book remains posivie: "We have a problem, but we can solve it.“ Emotionally, socio-politically, critically differentiated: Fuchs stands for 40 years of Arctic experience and due to its ICE camps and the current "Ocean Change" campaign, also in exchange with the younger generation. In autumn 2019 Fuchs received the "Seadevcon Maritime Award". The prize honours an annual personality, whose "life's work is exemplary for the struggle for a sustainable and respectful use of the oceans". In the context of various lectures and discussions Fuchs will continue to actively accompany the book.
Dio è amore, Dio è carità: ecco il candore da far di nuovo brillare agli occhi del mondo. Queste pagine hanno dunque un solo obiettivo: restituire l’uomo d’oggi – e di sempre? – al dialogo amicale con Dio che lo ama. Gesù è il vero interlocutore di quest’uomo, il Gesù di Nazaret che ci ha perdutamente amato e ci vuole nella sua vita. Dialogo, interpellanza, invito, coinvolgimento che non hanno un filo di violenza pur essendo una corsa impetuosa verso il cuore e la libertà di ciascuno. Non c’è paura, in questa parola, non c’è anticaglia, non c’è impossibile: c’è semplicemente il prevalere di Dio, l’insinuarsi del suo amore dovunque, la forza radiante della sua natura nella nostra, in una parola Gesù che dimora in noi e noi in lui. Bisogna imboccare come nostra, senza tradimenti, la via della misticità.
Per anni, Sergio Bambarén ha girato il mondo in cerca di una serenità all'apparenza irraggiungibile, spinto dal vento irrequieto del suo animo. Poi, proprio quando crede di aver finalmente conquistato l'equilibrio da sempre desiderato, ecco che arriva un figlio a sconvolgere ogni sua certezza. Solo stringendo tra le braccia il piccolo Daniel per la prima volta, Sergio si rende conto di non aver mai nemmeno immaginato le straordinarie implicazioni della paternità. Sopraffatto dalle emozioni, decide di prendere carta e penna per scrivere una lunga lettera al figlio. Una lettera in cui possano trovare sfogo tutte le parole che gli affollano la mente. Così, Sergio si mette completamente a nudo, raccontando pagine della sua esistenza che non ha mai condiviso con nessuno. Parla della sua infanzia in Perù, del primo amore, della passione per il mare. Svela i suoi sogni più intimi, le ambizioni più nascoste, le speranze più segrete. Ma non solo. Con lucidità e onestà, rievoca le paure, gli errori, le debolezze e le lezioni imparate a caro prezzo sulla propria pelle. Rimanendo fedele allo stile semplice e poetico che lo ha reso celebre, l'autore de "Il delfino" parla per la prima volta della meravigliosa esperienza che gli ha cambiato la vita, regalandoci un messaggio d'amore intenso e dolcissimo, che va dritto al cuore.

Tommaso is 16 years old, and hasn’t left the house for 18 months – in fact, he barely leaves his room. He is what psychologists refer to as hikikomori: literally “pulling inward, being confined”. One day, he suddenly abandoned basketball, school, and all his hobbies, and now spends his time watching old NBA matches and playing video games. There is one game in particular which determines the structure of his days, and has become his only means of socialisation. The game is called Us: a multiplayer game where teams of three players carry out 100 challenges per year, one each day. The team that completes the challenge first, while staying united as a group, wins. Tommaso’s avatar, whose head is a skull, is called Logan. His other team members are Rin: a girl who resembles a Japanese manga character, and Hud: a character straight out of a shooter game. These three do not know each other – according to the rules of the game, they are not allowed to discuss their private lives – but they soon become friends. Every day, Us provides them with a “historical” mission. They will fight either for the victims or for the perpetrators – for example, as part of the Colombian FARC, with the German Nazis, or in support of Mandela in South Africa. Every day, they must work out how to reach the end of the mission while surrounded by the horrors of the twentieth century. Every day, they will have someone to save and someone to kill. They will soon discover that history can be brutal, and that it’s not always possible to be the hero.

Così anonimo da non lasciare alcuna traccia di sé, se non un enigmatico biglietto da visita: ‘Professor Jeremy Kalwinsky, psicopatologo della memoria’.
