Every garden possesses its own unique beauty, just as every place holds a mysterious equilibrium within it. This is the premise advanced by Anna Scaravella, a renowned expert in landscape architecture who views every project as a new opportunity to explore the alchemy of plant culture and design. Scaravella’s unerring instincts and aesthetic rigor bring her to the nexus of garden and landscape, resulting in the creation of places that are not only marvelous but also energy-conscious and environmentally sustainable.
This splendid volume of photography takes us on a journey through ten gardens from northern to southern Italy: from the garden of Villa Albera in Lombardy to the hills of Piacenza with Villa Bellaria, on to Bagno Vignoni in Tuscany, and then even further south, to marvelous Ostuni. Scaravella has crafted magnificent oases of peace and beauty and invited us to visit and admire them by her side.
New York Admirals captain Scott Hunter takes his pregame rituals very seriously. When a particular smoothie precedes Scott's breaking his on-ice slump, he’s desperate to recreate the magic…and to get to know the sexy, funny guy behind the counter.
Kip Grady knew there was more to Scott’s frequent visits than blended fruit, but he never let himself imagine being invited back to Scott’s penthouse. Or kissed with reckless abandon—and more. What goes on between them is hot, incredible and frequent…but also only on Scott’s terms and always behind his closed apartment doors.
Scott needs Kip in his life, but with playoff season approaching, the spotlight on him is suddenly brighter than ever. He can’t afford to do anything that might derail his career or the public’s image of what a hockey captain should be. Kip is ready to go all in with Scott—but how much longer will he have to remain a secret?
Nos enseñaron que la felicidad estaba al final de ciertos caminos y que sería feliz una vez alcanzado el éxito, obtenido reconocimiento, conseguido ciertas metas... Yo seguí estos caminos, y logré muchas cosas, pero también caí, y después de todo eso, todavía quería más. Sin embargo, cuanto más avanzaba, más vacío me sentía.
Gafas rotas es el libro en el que me muestro sin máscaras, enseño mis heridas más profundas, cuento mis derrotas y revelo mis miedos, pero no para dar lecciones, sino para que te veas a ti mismo como en un espejo. Porque tú también puedes crear una vida extraordinaria, basándote no en lo que te enseñaron a ser, sino en lo que verdaderamente eres: luz, verdad, autenticidad.
