«Made in Italy» is a worldwide label for fashion and luxury brands. It suggests top quality as well as a sense of distinction and it is closely linked to famous brand names as well as entrepreneurs like Giorgio Armani, Miuccia Prada, Gianni Versace. Nevertheless, behind the sparkling names, made in Italy hides a set of entrepreneurial forms that are at the heart of peculiar Italian savoir-faire for fashion and luxury goods and that were, indeed, at the heart of the economic development of the country. Design, production and distribution of fashion and luxury goods in Italy have solid foundations in a diffuse network of independent enterprises that ensured economic and cultural development and innovation. The free, yet coordinated, initiative of small entrepreneurs, firmly rooted in the traditional structure of the Italian society, constitute the economic and social fabric behind the success of some of the well known large groups of the high end of the fashion and luxury system. This fabric of diffuse entrepreneurship is also actually ensuring the necessary variety of initiatives and countermeasures to face the crisis of this sector and to invent new solutions against the de-manufacturing and the fierce concurrence of the developing countries.

"The Tell-Tale Heart" is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe first published in 1843. It is told by an unnamed narrator who endeavors to convince the reader of his sanity, while describing a murder he committed. (The victim was an old man with a filmy "vulture-eye", as the narrator calls it.) The murder is carefully calculated, and the murderer hides the body by dismembering it and hiding it under the floorboards. Ultimately the narrator's guilt manifests itself in the form of the sound – possibly hallucinatory – of the old man's heart still beating under the floorboards.

Новый роман современного русскоязычного украинского писателя, местами игровой, местами пугающе пророческий, удачно комбинирует сюжетную увлекательность беллетристики и метафорику высокой литературы. Действие происходит в конце 1980-х годов в Киеве, точнее, в одном из его районов, Парке «Победа». Где-то далеко идет афганская война, коррумпированная власть уже не справляется с управлением, страна скоро рассыплется, но пока каштаны цветут, жители южной столицы шутят и влюбляются, празднуют дни рождения и проводы в армию, устраивают жизнь и достают по блату то, чего, как им кажется, не хватает для счастья. Роман еще в рукописи попал в лонг-лист премии «Национальный бестселлер» и в финал Русской премии.
