The most simple definition of manipulation might be this one: manipulating is handling people at will to achieve our goals. The manipulator is an artist of language and appearance; their words and their actions are apparently true, honest and generous, but their intentions are others and they remain hidden. The victim debates between reality and the fiction that their manipulator has created for them. Learning the different modus operandi that the manipulator uses to control their victims, will protect you so you don't fall into the hands of these kinds of individuals again. Do you intend ...

Giovanni's Ring is the story of "Giovanni Rocco," a New Jersey police officer, known undercover as "Giovanni Gatto," who was the mysterious agent at the epicenter of Operation Charlie Horse, a federal undercover operation that ultimately brought down ten members and associates of New Jersey's DeCavalcante Mafia family, the criminal organization known as "the real Sopranos." The book is not simply a chronicle of Giovanni Rocco's adventures in the murky and dangerous Mafia world he inhabited, but also a fascinating window into the psychological struggles that such a life entails.

A brilliant skeptic, Jose Saramago envisions the life of Jesus Christ and the story of his Passion as things of this earth: A child crying, the caress of a woman half asleep, the bleat of a goat, a prayer uttered in the grayish morning light.

Composed in the early 1350s, in the wake of the Black Death, The Decameron comprises 100 short stories from all over the world, reset by Boccaccio among the flourishing merchant classes of Renaissance Italy.

Monty Python star and medieval historian Terry Jones presents ten BBC Radio dramatisations of tales from Giovanni Boccaccio's humane and comic masterpiece

Serve coraggio quando si parte, ma a volte ne serve ancora di più quando si torna. È il luglio del 1940, l’Italia è in guerra. Ricciardi – preoccupato per la figlia Marta e per i suoceri, in grave pericolo a causa delle origini ebraiche – ha ormai trasferito la famiglia a Fortino, il paese dove è nato. Lì, nei luoghi dell’infanzia, sperava di avere un po’ di quiete. Invece, mentre in città il fido brigadiere Maione cerca di salvare un comune amico da morte certa, tra le montagne del Cilento il commissario è messo faccia a faccia con un passato che avrebbe voluto scordare.

Together with his indefatigable partner, Brigadier Maione, Commissario Ricciardi, a man driven into solitude by his paranormal "gift" of seeing the final seconds in the lives of victims of violent deaths - a talent that also makes him a highly effective investigator - is conducting an investigation into the death of the beautiful and mysterious duchess of Camparino. The duchess' connections to Neapolitan privileged social circles and the local Fascist elite make the case a powder keg waiting to blow.

As Naples prepares for its holiday celebrations, behind the facade of order and happiness imposed by the fascist regime lurks terrible poverty and blinding desperation. In a luxurious apartment on the Mergellina beach, the bodies of a fascist militia officer and his wife have been found. The woman's throat has been cut while the man has been stabbed over 60 times. Seemingly, the hands of two separate killers have been at work.
