A journey in which the love for books, the desire for discovery, the ability to make a healthy cultural critique feed a catalog of thousands of titles. The watchwords of this long history are simple: disclosure and quality at the right price. This is the philosophy that inspired the paperbacks of the seventies, the great economic paperbacks and the very famous 100 pages 1000 lire and which continues to inspire us even today. To the Big Economic Paperbacks, born in 1988 with their bright and colorful covers, and to theMammut , born in 1991 and recognizable today for the valuable caricatures of the great authors, are joined in 2014 by the MiniMammut and in 2015 by the Modern Classics : an ideal library that collects the masterpieces of literature, poetry, essays and theater.

Nonfiction is well represented by two fundamental series. There are characters and events in which the spirit of our time almost seems to embody itself. Telling its history, portraying it often means reviving the face of an era. It is with this philosophy that it was born in 1991 and continues today The faces of history . The Controcorrente series, on the other hand, intends to explore the border territories of current affairs, investigating the thorniest issues, from political ones to debates on religion, from crime reports to reconstructions of controversial events.
