L'un des écrivains les plus influents de toute l'histoire des comics nous offre un ouvrage « merveilleux, brillant et souvent émouvant » (Neil Gaiman), qui nous emmène dans l'envers occulte et fantastique de la réalité. Avec son tout premier recueil de nouvelles, couvrant quarante années d'activité, Alan Moore nous présente une palette de personnages aussi variés qu'inoubliables qui découvrent - et dans certains cas, font et défont - la trame diverse et encore largement inexplorée de l'existence. Dans la première des nouvelles, la relation intime entre deux spécialistes de l'amour sorcier connaît de tragiques ramifications.

El mundo de los negocios está cambiando. La búsqueda exclusiva de "ganancias a cualquier precio" está siendo reemplazada por el deseo de construir empresas con propósito, que creen un futuro mejor y sean comercialmente exitosas. Tras años de investigación sobre algunas de las empresas más pioneras y progresistas del mundo, y a través de las conversaciones que ha tenido con sus fundadores, Moore descubre que es posible liderar con generosidad, tener una cadena de suministro transparente, diseñar productos y servicios bellos y respetuosos, y crear una cultura empresarial en la que las personas prosperen.

Y sin embargo, estos son los momentos en los que nuestro espíritu se eleva. El diseñador Alan Moore nos invita a reflexionar no solo sobre lo que producimos -un sitio web, una silla o un negocio-, sino también sobre el cómo y el porqué. Y nos anima a aportar valor, utilidad y belleza en aquello que hagamos.

Dalla fantascienza all’horror, passando per il fantastico e la satira pungente, Alan Moore si destreggia sapientemente tra generi, stili e registri diversi, per dipingere quadri rischiarati da illuminazioni folgoranti, squarci di una realtà solo apparentemente inverosimile, che spesso riesce a superare anche le fantasie più sfrenate. Così due amanti improbabili si innamorano con conseguenze terribili in un lupanare frequentato da stregoni; il racconto dell’origine dell’universo rivela un esito catastrofico; gli spiriti esigono vendetta.

Londres, 1949. Jeune homme désargenté, Dennis Knuckleyard vit et travaille dans une librairie d’occasion. Bien qu’aspirant écrivain, il mène une existence passablement ordinaire.

Dennis comprend que l’un des livres n’existe pas : il s’agit d’un texte imaginaire figurant dans un roman, lui, bien réel. Il provient de l’autre Londres, le Grand Quand, une version de la ville située au-delà du Temps où tous les aspects de son histoire, depuis ses origines jusqu’à sa disparition, se manifestent.
