Edizioni E/O and Europa Editions are two independent publishers of quality fiction. The companies were founded respectively in 1979 and 2005 by Sandro Ferri and Sandra Ozzola Ferri. The idea behind Edizioni E/O and Europa is one of cultural exchange rooted in bringing high quality translated fiction into Italian bookshops, but also bringing the best Italian contemporary literature can offer to the American and British market - and the world in general. Our catalog is eclectic, reflecting the founders’ belief that dialogue between nations and cultures is of vital importance and that this exchange is facilitated by literature chosen not only for its ability to entertain and fascinate but also to inform and enlighten. Notable successes at E/O and Europa include: Muriel Barbery’s The Elegance of the Hedgehog, which spent almost a year on the New York Times Bestseller list and the IndieBound bestseller list; Elena Ferrante's Neapolitan novels, including My Brilliant Friend, a New York Times bestseller; Massimo Carlotto's Mediterranean noir series, soon to be a tv show for the Italian network RAI; Ahmet Altan's Ottoman quartet, powerful critique of an authoritarian regime with echoes of contemporary Turkey. Never tired of research, Edizioni E/O is building a list of fresh, strong, experimental new voices in Italian contemporary literature, with an attention to novels with a strong sense of place, sophisticated plots and attentive character development: the works of Sacha Naspini, Fabio Bartolomei, Massimo Cuomo are already known internationally as a new wave of what made Edizioni E/O and Europa Editions one of the most adventurous and succesful publishers of the last ten years.

THE POWER OF SYMBOLS Sacred Images for Meditation and Divination by Stefano Fusi Artwork by Stefano Fusi Product Details 41 cards + 68-page guidebook+gold extra thin point marker Guide book size: 85 x 130 mm Card size: 85 x 130 mm ISBN: 978-1-955680-03-5 Imprint: Edizioni LAlbero All our oracles are designed and printed in Italy using only 100% ecofriendly material and non toxic inks and varnishes. Symbols are the signs that reveal and perpetuate the unlimited universe in our world and in our common life. They reveal meanings beyond those obvious to the senses and to our rational sphere. They exist before we can imagine or think about them: like genes and DNA on the physical plane, symbols pre-exist us, they carry with them the original instructions of life. They exist in nature and we have then encoded them to express in perceptible and comprehensible forms the essential forces that structure existence since the beginning. They are a synthetic map of the motions of what we call energy.The Power of Symbols is a deck of 41 Oracles with guide book.

The White Lily of Stalingrad is the first volume of a new series dedicated to the Great Air Battles of the past, but above all to the pilots who took part in them, their courage and self-sacrifice. The human tribute of the pilots of the various nations at war was very high. Also for this reason many of them were young, often barely twenty years old and with very little flying experience that they necessarily acquired while fighting. The White Lily of Stalingrad is centred on the exploits of a girl, barely twenty years old, ace of the Soviet Aviation and pilot of a fighter plane, the Yakovlev Yak-1. A volume not to be missed, of pure Adventure, in the style of Edizioni Segni d'Autore!
An extraordinary debut, the story of a woman who fights through life like a gladiator in post-WWII Rome. It’s 1943—families are crowded and hungry. Tullia and her brothers are raised as slaves by their violent, furiously unhappy mother. Every evening she counts the money they were able to raise from the streets, and if it’s not enough, she beats them. Tullia is forced to grow up pretty fast, to work with her head down. But the way she sees the world is brave, curious, full of life. Her desperate will to survive, to make something different out of the misery of her life, is so powerful it’s impossible not to remain in awe of her strength, her dignity, and her relentless resilience. She leaves behind her abusive mother, but her majestic figure, her beauty, her clear intelligence, torment her as she becomes a woman and a mother, without ever learning how to be a daughter. She is lonely, but she’s not alone: fascinating, dirty, loud, hopeful, eternal Rome is a mother and a friend to Tullia who grows in its warm yet unforgiving embrace. Laura Mancini’s writing is transparent and imaginative, atmospheric. Reading Niente per lei is like watching history go by outside a window: it’s impossible not to see in it a blurred reflection of ourselves.

In a society lacking shared anniversaries, what is the true meaning of Holocaust Remembrance Day? On January 27th every year we celebrate it to remember Shoah, such a tragic event that changed and shaped humanity's history. But, year after year, the risk is to turn it into an abstract and overused tribute. Ugo Volli analyzes the meanings of this special day, enhancing its misinterpretations, hypocrisies, banalisations as far as negationism. Remembering can be freeing and meaningful if it is about seeing, rebuilding and commemorating the detailed mechanism of a story.
