Vortici di gloria di Irving Stone
Per chi ama l'impressionismo e la vita francese della metà dell'ottocento. Una biografia leggera della vita di Camille Pissarro che non può mancare.
Nel 1832 Il giovane Darwin vince il concorso per il ruolo di naturalista sul 'Beagle' un brigantino della Royal Navy che avrebbe compiuto un lungo viaggio intorno al mondo per eseguire delle ricerche scientifiche. Il libro di Stone ripercorre tutte le tappe di questo viaggio in un romanzo che è anche una biografia del noto scienziato per celebrare il bicentenario della sua nascita.
