Let me be the first...

Written by John Boyne in 2006, it tells the story of Bruno, a nine-year-old boy, son of a Nazi Commandant, from his own point of view, during the World War II. Although this is a sadly well known topic, the way in which Boyne describes under Bruno's vision those terrible times, provokes on the reader a new sensation, even stronger than other stories, as you can become, in a few pages, Bruno or Shmuel at Auschwitz. I strongly recommend you this book.

And now, what about a good film? Let me think... One of my favourites (difficult choice because I've got many) is Grease

As you may know, this is a musical set in the last 1950's. Directed by Randal Kleiser, the main protagonists are John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. This is a great version of the Romeo-and-Juliet-story, happy ending included, full of astonishing music and unforgettable moments. Here you have one. Enjoy it!!!

And, do you like music? One of my favourite things... Again, I find it very difficult to decide. I like so many types, bands and singers, that I don't know how to start. OK... Pearl Jam. This is, in my opinion, one of the best rock-grunge bands ever!

This band was formed in Seattle in 1990 (more or less), and became one of the leading bands inside the grunge movement during the 1990s. Their first album was Ten and since then, the have released 10 albums, including their Greatest Hits. I'd like to share with you one of my favourite songs. Why don't you try to understand the lyrics? By the way, it is based on a real story...
