Hallmark meets Hitchens - A Rom Com For Nonbelievers
When a fire-and-brimstone presidential candidate declares the Rapture is just weeks away, America loses its collective mind in a blaze of holy hysteria. Enter Dr. Helen Hand—a razor-sharp freethinker from Los Angeles—who’s forced to infiltrate a Bible-thumping college in Kansas. Her goals? Enlighten young minds and thwart the End Times, but she falls in love. Immaculate Deception is a wickedly funny romantic comedy for nonbelievers. A “Rom Com Non.”
Equal parts wickedly smart and laugh-out-loud funny, this sharp satire skewers apocalyptic panic, evangelical fervor, and America’s addiction to certainty—while serving up a deeply human love story. Dr. Helen Hand is the heroine for our irrational age: brilliant, bristling, and armed with wit to hold her own in the heart of Kansas fundamentalism. - Bob Ingersoll Jr.
The Enlightenment Had a Leading Lady - It Wasn’t Voltaire”
A dazzling reimagining of Enlightenment history, Émilie du Châtelet Without Voltaire reclaims the legacy of a brilliant physicist, mathematician, and philosopher who dared to outthink her era—and did so while history tried to write her off as someone’s mistress. This is the story of genius, ambition, and a woman stepping out of a man’s shadow to illuminate the world on her own terms. Erudite, witty, and quietly defiant, this book restores Émilie’s rightful place—not as Voltaire’s companion, but as the intellectual force he could never quite match.
“At once incisive, exhilarating, and overdue, Émilie du Châtelet Without Voltaire rewrites the Enlightenment with the clarity and conviction du Châtelet herself would have applauded. This is not a footnote to Voltaire—it’s a brilliant act of historical correction. Every philosopher, scientist, and feminist should read it.” —Dr. Margot Bellamy, Chair of Enlightenment Studies, Cambridge Institute for Intellectual History
Broken by Waves, Bound by Love
The Lone Pine is set during the 2011 tsunami in Japan. This multi-generational, coming-of-age saga follows three Matsuoka women—eleven-year-old Michiko, her mother Shizuko, and grandmother Azumi—each confronting grief and generational tensions. When Michiko is swept into the disaster while visiting her grandparents, the family faces not only destruction but deep emotional reckoning. Relocating to America, they navigate cultural dislocation, buried secrets, and patriarchal control. Inspired by personal experience, the novel explores identity, resilience, and transformation. Water—both creator and destroyer—fractures their past and reshapes their future. Michiko becomes the catalyst for breaking a legacy of silence, survival, and generational pain.
When Reason Meets Desire: Spinoza Falls Hard
Spinoza in Love is a playful, provocative novel that imagines the great rationalist philosopher—excommunicated, misunderstood, and famously solitary—falling head over heels. Set in a delightfully anachronistic world where logic flirts with lust and metaphysics meets messy emotion, the book explores what happens when a man devoted to reason collides with the irrationality of desire. As Spinoza wrestles with temptation, doubt, and Dutch pastries, Spinoza in Love becomes a hilarious, tender meditation on passion, freedom, and what it means to truly connect. Philosophy has never been sexier—or more sincere. Ideal for fans of clever fiction, bold ideas, and beautifully flawed thinkers.
“
“Spinoza in Love is a luminous, unsettling meditation on passion, reason, and the unbearable lightness of intellectual intimacy. With rare elegance, the author imagines what it means for a man devoted to logic to be undone by longing. A brilliant work of speculative philosophy, as emotionally precise as it is historically playful.” —Dr. Celeste Anwar, PhD, Professor of Philosophy, St. John’s College
He Lost Everything Until Love Found Him
After losing his wife, his career, and his will to try, Art Benedetti drifts through life like a ghost in his own skin. Haunted by silence and shadow, he retreats to a crumbling seaside town where the air tastes like salt and memory. There, in a bookstore barely clinging to its roof, he meets Luna—a woman who collects broken clocks and speaks in riddles. What begins as cautious small talk grows into something fragile and real. As Art rebuilds his life, piece by trembling piece, he discovers that even in ruin, love can bloom—and sometimes, starting over means becoming who you were always meant to be.
“A luminous triumph. Benedetti’s journey is nothing short of a resurrection, and this novel—aching, elegant, unforgettable—reminds us that love is not the reward for surviving, but the reason we do. I haven’t wept like this since I first read The Remains of the Day.” —Elena Marchesi, former Literary Editor of La Repubblica and Chair of the International Council of Humanist Letters
Quando l’IA si eleva, Cosa Resta di Noi?
In un mondo sempre più plasmato da algoritmi e automazione, cosa significa davvero essere umani? Il significato della vita nell’era dell’intelligenza artificiale esplora il nostro dilemma esistenziale mentre le macchine imparano a imitare il pensiero, le emozioni e perfino la creatività. Unendo filosofia, neuroscienze e critica culturale, il libro analizza come amore, scopo e mortalità si trasformino in un’epoca in cui la coscienza potrebbe non appartenere più solo alla carne. Dall’intimità digitale all’etica algoritmica, pone una domanda essenziale: se le macchine possono fare tutto ciò che facciamo noi—più velocemente, meglio—cosa resta a noi? La risposta, sorprendentemente, comincia e finisce con l’anima.
“Un’opera straordinaria, lucida e profondamente umana. In un’epoca dominata dal silicio, questo libro ci restituisce il cuore pulsante dell’esistenza. Un testo destinato a diventare un classico del pensiero contemporaneo.” —Prof.ssa Beatrice Santoro, Direttrice della Cattedra di Filosofia Digitale presso l’Università di Roma e Presidente Onoraria del Premio Calvino
He Chased Butterflies and Found Joy
The Goal is a luminous, genre-blurring fable about butterflies, happiness, and the quiet art of becoming. When Theo, a disillusioned entomologist, abandons his career in search of something “real,” he finds himself in a remote valley where butterflies are said to whisper truths to those who listen. There, guided by a reclusive gardener and a swarm of elusive blue morphos, Theo embarks on an unexpected journey—not toward success or fame, but toward joy. The Goal asks: What if happiness isn’t something to chase, but something that lands softly, like a butterfly, when you finally stop running?
“A tender, transformative masterpiece. The Goal reminds us that love—like happiness—can’t be hunted, only welcomed. This book flutters straight into the heart.”—Dr. Celeste Morelli, author of The Anatomy of Love and Chair of the Institute for Emotional Intelligence, Florence
Corruption. Cynicism. Espresso. Copenhagen. Redemption.
In Rude City is niets heilig en zegt niemand nog “alsjeblieft.” Wanneer voormalig journalist Elias Ravn terugkeert naar Kopenhagen na tien jaar in het buitenland, vindt hij zijn geboortestad kouder, luidruchtiger en veel genadelozer dan hij zich herinnerde. Verstrikt in een schimmig netwerk van politieke schandalen, datalekken en met espresso doordrenkte verraad, moet Elias zich een weg banen door een stad waar fatsoen is gestorven en waarheid een prijs heeft. Hoe dieper hij graaft, hoe duidelijker het wordt: dit is niet alleen corruptie, maar een samenleving die is gestopt met doen alsof ze geeft om iets. Rude City is een scherpe, stijlvolle thriller voor het tijdperk van permanente verontwaardiging.
“Meeslepend, vlijmscherp en duister geestig—Rude City legt met chirurgische precisie de botheid van onze tijd bloot. Een absolute aanrader.” —Sofie van Dijk, hoofdredacteur Litera Nederland Magazine
