Story
As You Like It follows its heroine Rosalind as she flees persecution in her uncle's court, accompanied by her cousin Celia and Touchstone the court jester, to find safety and, eventually, love, in the Forest of Arden. Historically, critical response has varied, with some critics finding the work of lesser quality than other Shakespearean works and some finding the play a work of great merit.

Story
UNA SCRITTRICE FEMMINISTA DEI NOSTRI GIORNI CI MOSTRA, ANCORA UNA VOLTA, LA FORZA IMMORTALE DELLA LETTERATURA, LA SUA CAPACITÀ DI PORTARE CORAGGIO E LIBERTÀ. Essere una bambina, e poi una donna, vuol dire imparare fin da subito cosa si può fare e cosa non si può fare, vuol dire imparare che certe qualità, come il coraggio, l’audacia e l’indipendenza, non sono prettamente femminili, e che reprimere i propri desideri è normale, e consigliabile. Meglio restare ai margini e attendere passivamente un salvatore o, nella più sfortunata delle ipotesi, la provvidenza.

Story
“When Lazarus rose from the grave, after three days and nights in the mysterious thraldom of death, and returned alive to his home, it was a long time before anyone noticed the evil peculiarities in him that were later to make his very name terrible.” One of Andreyev’s best-known short stories, Lazarus follows the Eastern Orthodox tradition that Lazarus never smiled again, and it explores what happened to the biblical figure after his resurrection from the dead. The unsettling coldness that exudes from the man who cheated death cannot be denied by anyone who meets him.

Story
Ignoring the systemic racial inequalities in film is losing the industry $10 billion a year. Yet, parity, diversity, and inclusion are fundamental issues that the Oscar Awards are only just beginning to address. In this book, award-winning writer, broadcaster, model, and fashion designer, Ben Arogundade, provides a manual for deconstructing everything you thought you knew about Hollywood - documenting the stories and struggles of black artists within the movie industry that have so far been left out of the canon.
