  1. 2. Семейная жизнь весом в 158 фунтов

    Роман рассказывает о двух супружеских парах, которые решают проверить свои представления о браке и сексе через обмен партнёрами и эксперименты с открытыми отношениями; на фоне литературной и творческой среды автор исследует темы желания, ревности, власти и ответственности, показывая, как поиски свободы и новизны приводят к запутанным эмоциональным и моральным последствиям для всех участников.

  2. 4. Preghiera Per Un Amico

    A narrator recalls growing up in a small New England town and his extraordinary friendship with a diminutive, high‑voiced boy who is convinced he has been chosen by God; the boy’s strange certainties, prophetic acts, and ultimate sacrifice profoundly shape the narrator’s coming of age and wrestle with fate, faith, guilt and loss as their lives intersect with larger forces such as the Vietnam War, blending dark humor and tragedy into a meditation on identity, responsibility and belief.
