Story2
Award-winning historian and best-selling author Paul L. Maier has created a compelling style of documentary fiction. He uses what is historically known of Pilate's life, adds in the known political climate of first-century Judea, and unveils the colorful, untold story that changed history. Filling in the details of Pilate's early career in Rome, Maier captures the drama of imperial Rome under Tiberius Caesar, the plotting of his political allies and enemies, and his relationship with his beloved but ambitious wife, Procula.

Story1
Bo ha ottantanove anni ed è arrabbiato con il suo corpo che non obbedisce più, con le sue braccia un tempo forti che ora non riescono a fare più nulla. Ma, soprattutto, Bo è arrabbiato con Hans che vuole portargli via Sixten, il suo cane, perché si è convinto che un quasi novantenne non sia in grado di prendersene cura. Delicato e potente, questo ritratto dell'ultima età della vita, protagonista invisibile della ma nostra epoca, è un romanzo sovversivo che ci riguarda tutti.

Peint à Vienne en 1910, le tableau de Gustav Klimt Portrait d’une dame est acheté par un collectionneur anonyme en 1916, retouché par le maître un an plus tard, puis volé en 1997, avant de réapparaître en 2019 dans les jardins d’un musée d’art moderne en Italie. Aucun expert en art, aucun conservateur de musée, aucun enquêteur de police ne sait qui était la jeune femme représentée sur le tableau, ni quels mystères entourent l’histoire mouvementée de son portrait.

Whether working at the laboratory she adored in Paris or toiling at a university in London, she feels closest to the science, those unchanging laws of physics and chemistry that guide her experiments. When she is assigned to work on DNA, she believes she can unearth its secrets.
