The Artist





We are particularly honored to announce the publication of The Artist, a Michele Iacono's book (Checkpoint Charlie) originally written in Italian, here translated by the magic keyboard of Giusi Nigro. 
It was a long work in which they participated among others: L.H.Davis, author of The Race, the novel published by Hoffmann & Hoffmann in the recent year 2017 and F. Guzzardi author of the novel in Italian language "26 Days". 

The Artist, is the story of a failed artist painter, who suddenly finds himself, thanks to a series of circumstances, projected into a world made of wealth and sweet living, but also of corruption, greed and perversions at every level.

 
The novel is drawn on the backgrounds of an Italy with numerous artistic and cultural treasures. Suspended between philosophy and raw realism, coexisting with extraordinary lightness, until the drama of existence and its absurd inconsistencies; traveling through the alleys of a sunny and grotesque Naples in a Turin full of youthful memories and to which the author leaks some pearls of memory.
We move from the eternal city to the sweet Tuscany, where the events of the artist painter intertwine with characters on the margins of society and others to the edge of our imagination.


 "What forced the good Samaritan to cede the mantle? He
asked the artist. A top prize is answered, a place close to the
blessed. And the martyrs? An inquisitor, when he tortured
and killed, did not want to affirm goodness, forcing men and
women to deny wickedness and demons? Were they crucified
to assert themselves in their hardened hearts? What greater
gift could make a woman to a man, if you do not have the
goodness to open her thighs to have it put in?"


  The artist can be purchased worldwide at your local bookstore, or in Amazon, Barnes & Nobles, Indigo and in any online bookstore. It can also be ordered directly by the publisher and through "Ingram" distributor for wholesalers and retailers.

Egoists a book of superman

  By F. Guzzardi The new edition of Huneker's book that saw his first appearance in 1909, is wholly devoted to those modern poets, philosophers and prose masters whose writings embody the individualistic idea as opposed to altruistic and socialistic sentiments. Amply discussed are Stendhal, whose cult, recently revived on the Continent, is steadily growing; Maurice Barres, French Academician; Anatole France, blithe pagan and delicious ironist; Max Stimer, the forerunner of Nietzsche; The mystics, Ernest Hello new to American readers and William Blake. Much new historical material can be found in the studies of Charles Baudelaire and Gustave Flaubert. The hitherto unpublished letter of the novelist, along with an original page proof of "Madame Bovary," corrected by his own hand, will prove of interest to his admirers. That brilliant virtuoso of the French language, J. K. Huysmans, forms the subject of a chapter, while certain phases of Nietzsche, in...

Lost For 75 Years: That Boyce Girl

The manuscript, That Boyce Girl , was written by Raymond Harvey Davis in 1938, but was virtually lost for over 75 years. The work eventually found me, Laurance Howard Davis III, Raymond's great-grand son. Raymond died in 1943, so I never knew him, but I did fall in love with his writing. I published That Boyce Girl for Raymond in 2015 but couldn't let it end there. While transcribing the old manuscript, I fell in love with Sally Boyce, as had all the men in the novel. Once a socialite, Sally was cast into the workforce by the Great Depression. Not only did she have to compete with men professionally, the same men chased her socially with an even greater passion. Unafraid to speak her mind, or slap a deserving face, Sally made her mark in the world at a time when few women could. After preparing the work for publication, I couldn't let Sally fade back into the past, so I wrote the sequel, The Race . Merging Sally's resilience and determination with my own experiences...
