Publisher's summary
Considerato il più grande romanzo epistolare della letteratura francese, "Le relazioni pericolose" (1782) è ambientato nella Parigi del Settecento, dove la Marchesa de Merteuil, falsa e devota, abbandonata dall'amante, Gercourt, decide di vendicarsi disonorandolo.
A questo scopo conquista la complicità del Visconte di Valmont, suo ex amante e noto seduttore senza scrupoli. Valmont accetta la sfida e decide di sedurre la giovane Cécile, promessa sposa di Gercourt. Inizia così lo scambio epistolare (175 lettere) che mette in scena la rete diabolica elaborata da Valmont e dalla Marchesa di Merteuil, tessuta in cinque mesi di progetti, manovre, sotterfugi, confessioni, elaborate ipocrisie, colpi di scena e complicatissimi intrighi.
Nella rappresentazione dei due protagonisti principali, tutti presi dalla loro volontà di autoaffermazione, Laclos ritrae in modo del tutto originale il quadro realistico di una società moralmente dissoluta e crudele, ormai in discesa libera verso l'autodistruzione nel momento in cui elabora l'idea del massimo potere e del completo piacere, del dominio incontrastato e ottenuto con ogni mezzo, e a ogni prezzo.
"Le relazioni pericolose" è stato oggetto di fortunati adattamenti cinematografici da parte di Roger Vadim, con Jeanne Moreau e Gérard Philippe (1959), Stephen Frears, con Glenn Close e John Malkovich (1988) e Milos Forman, con Annette Bening e Colin Firth (1989).

Eight years ago I fell into a secret summer fling with my best friend’s little sister before our lives went in different directions. Now, I’m the grumpy to Juliet’s sunshine on a popular dating podcast we host, and when a wealthy fan gives us a charming coastal cottage as the biggest thank you ever, we head to the town where I grew up to give it a makeover. And find the house has only one bed. Located under a mirrored ceiling.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,097
Romance can be a little complicated when you get sucked into a wormhole. Just ask high school English teacher June Flint. One little solar flare happens and suddenly you find yourself 85 years in the future. Eighty-five years from your dream job. Your ailing mother whose only companion in this world is you. Your favorite stuffed-crust pizza from DeLucia’s on Sunday nights. But when June’s cell phone inexplicably picks up a signal, she’s able to call back to the present—more specifically, four weeks before she accidentally time traveled.

Iris Nightingale is more than okay. She has her life planned out to a perfect schedule. Work, run, sleep, repeat. She spends her quiet Friday nights sitting alone on a bench in the park, trying to push back the memories that no amount of running can help her escape. But one evening, there’s someone else on her bench - Hunter. Tall, wry and infuriating: everything about him gets under Iris’s skin. Little does she know that he's about to upset more than just her routines...
