  No One Could Have Guessed the Weather , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 425min

  Sometimes what you want in your 20s isn’t what you want or need in your 40s.... When Lucy Lovett’s husband loses his job, she is forced to give up her posh life in London and move their family to a tiny apartment in Manhattan, where her husband has managed to secure a lowly position. Lucy finds herself living in the center of cool and hip. Across from their apartment is a trendy bar called PDT - whenever Lucy passes by, she thinks, "Please Don’t Tell anyone I’m a middle-aged woman." Homesick and resentful at first, Lucy soon embarks on the love affair of her life - no, not with her husband (though they’re both immensely relieved to discover they do love each other for richer or poorer), but with New York City and the three women who befriend her. There’s Julia, who is basically branded with a Scarlet A when she leaves her husband and kids for a mini nervous breakdown and a room of her own; Christy, a much older man’s trophy wife, who is a bit adrift as only those who live high up in penthouses can be; and disheveled and harried Robyn, constantly compensating for her husband, who can’t seem to make the transition from wunderkind to adult. Spot-on observant, laugh-out-loud funny, yet laced with kindness through and through, No One Could Have Guessed the Weather is a story of what happens when you grow up and realize the middle part of your story might just be your beginning. ungekürzt.

  Witches Be Crazy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 659min

  Real heroes never die. But they do get grouchy in middle age. The beloved King Ik is dead, and there was barely time to check his pulse before the royal throne was supporting the suspiciously shapely backside of an impostor pretending to be Ik's beautiful, long-lost daughter. With the land's heroic hunks busy drooling all over themselves, there's only one man left who can save the kingdom of Jenair. His name is Dungar Loloth, a rural blacksmith turned innkeeper, a surly hermit, and an all-around nobody oozing toward middle age, compensating for a lack of height, looks, charm, and tact with guts and an attitude. Normally politics is the least of his concerns, but after everyone in the neighboring kingdom of Farrawee comes down with a severe case of being dead, Dungar learns that the masquerading princess not only is behind the carnage but also has similar plans for his own hometown. Together with the only person senseless enough to tag along, an eccentric and arguably insane hobo named Jimminy, he journeys out into the world he's so pointedly tried to avoid as the only hope of defeating the most powerful person in it. That is, if he can survive the pirates, cultists, radical Amazonians, and assorted other dangers lying in wait along the way. Logan J. Hunder's hilarious debut blows up the fantasy genre with its wry juxtaposition of the fantastic and the mundane, proving that the best and brightest heroes aren't always the best for the job. ungekürzt.

  For All the Obvious Reasons: And Other Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 526min

  For All the Obvious Reasons is Lynn Stegner's superb collection of nine remarkably distinct tales of passion, clear-eyed wisdom, and honesty honed to a cutting edge. These are stories the listener can't shake: A woman living a marital shadow life realizes that her long compensating heart has begun to ominously decompensate. An affluent New Yorker becomes a hoarder to escape a future he cannot bear to take up. A baby dies in a miasma of sibling resentments, and from that the secrets of culpability unravel. A construction worker and a bereaved young neighbor together find a way to be in a broken world. And in the beautifully moving narrative that closes the volume, a story about the depth of goodness and duty and of the profound love they both define and prevent. From the wild rivers of British Columbia to the cement jungle of Manhattan, Stegner pulls us from our own worlds into her own. With luminous particulars and in richly orchestrated language, these stories sound the vibrant, sometimes anguished music that composes human lives. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for listeners interested in fiction - novels; novellas; political and medical thrillers; comedy; satire; historical fiction; romance; erotic and love stories; mystery; classic literature; folklore and mythology; literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, and Cather; and much more.

  Moonwalking with Einstein: The Art and Science of Remembering Everything , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 571min

  Foer's unlikely journey from chronically forgetful science journalist to U.S. Memory Champion frames a revelatory exploration of the vast, hidden impact of memory on every aspect of our lives. On average, people squander 40 days annually compensating for things they've forgotten. Joshua Foer used to be one of those people. But after a year of memory training, he found himself in the finals of the U.S. Memory Championship. Even more important, Foer found a vital truth we too often forget: In every way that matters, we are the sum of our memories. Moonwalking with Einstein draws on cutting-edge research, a surprising cultural history of memory, and venerable tricks of the mentalist's trade to transform our understanding of human remembering. Under the tutelage of top "mental athletes", he learns ancient techniques once employed by Cicero to memorize his speeches and by Medieval scholars to memorize entire books. Using methods that have been largely forgotten, Foer discovers that we can all dramatically improve our memories. Immersing himself obsessively in a quirky subculture of competitive memorizers, Foer learns to apply techniques that call on imagination as much as determination - showing that memorization can be anything but rote. From the PAO system, which converts numbers into lurid images, to the memory palace, in which memories are stored in the rooms of imaginary structures, Foer's experience shows that the World Memory Championships are less a test of memory than of perseverance and creativity. At a time when electronic devices have all but rendered our individual memories obsolete, Foer's bid to resurrect the forgotten art of remembering becomes an urgent quest. Moonwalking with Einstein brings Joshua Foer to the apex of the U.S. Memory Championship and readers to a profound appreciation of a gift we all possess but that too often slips our minds. ungekürzt.

  The Haunting of Bleak House: Rise of the Plague Doctor , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 165min

  A new longer length story from Clarice Black How do the worlds of a greedy London doctor, who had refused to treat the poor and destitute plague sufferers, and the millennial journalism student from Leeds intercept? Jennie, the millennial college student, with a disregarding mother and an over-compensating father, chooses to pause her studies to experience the realities of life. She accepts a position as au-pair to Mr. and Mrs. Walker and their seven-year old daughter at their newly acquired Bleak House on the outskirts of London. Martin is the perfect employer with many problems on his personal and professional fronts. His wife becomes inexplicably disabled, having reached a pinnacle in the journalistic world and attaining unimagined wealth. He loses his lucrative and satisfying job and takes up a demanding position in its stead which keeps him from home for long hours. Their daughter, Abigail, is uncharacteristically obedient and compliant and spends most of her school holidays in the company of her plush toys and dolls in her new bedroom. New in the house, and rebutted by Mary Walker at every opportunity, Jennie experiences odd sounds and sightings in Abigail's room, and Abigail's constant preoccupation with the 'imaginary' birdman. Then there's the omnipresent stench of death seemingly emanating from the very ground beneath the house. The Walkers fob off her concerns and Jennie is left to solve the mysteries of the Bleak House alone and in a strange place. Will she dig up the long forgotten from a long time past, or will the truth be closer to home? "She can see in the dark corner of her bedroom, a blood-red figure draped in shrouds, his face masked with a beak and goggled, tinted eyes. She calls him the birdman. Jennie can see it too. In the days that follow, Jennie begins to uncover- not by her choice- the dreary dark past that's clung to the Bleak House." ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Bridget Thomas.

  Sex Position, Sex Talk, and Fetishes: How to Transform Your Sex Life Through Kama Sutra, Tantric Sex and Maximizing Orgasm. Master the Art of Sex , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 221min, (USK 18)

  When you realize that the vast majority of the Kama Sutra isn't generally sex, it turns out to be much more bizarre once you think a 2,000-year-old content keeps on having this impact on your sexual minds. The first Kama Sutra, as opposed to numerous hot and substantial sex manuals, is a philosophical book that gives experiences into a compensating life and fructuosity. It comes chiefly due to the idea of sex (and intriguing sex positions) as an ordinary and solid piece of life, to the extent sex is a handbook. This is a sex. (While queer sex and non-regularizing sex personalities are in the book, it is a very informative supposition that the peruser's essential sexual relationship is hetero) yet some place down the line (with something other than a little orientalism), the non-sexual parts of the Kama Sutra have been neglected, that is a very hetero-regulating book. Believe it or not, it's not primarily a sex manual. The Kama Sutra, accepted to be composed during the second or third century C.E. by the Hindu Vedic scholar Vatsyayana, is a guide for temperate living, loaded up with aphorisms on the idea of love and the significance of family life. It recounts finding a real existence accomplice and making an agreeable relationship, exploring the difficulties of extramarital connections, adjusting family and obligation and the need to bring home the bacon - just as an assortment of positions for sex. "Sutra" in Sanskrit implies treatise; "Kama" alludes to want, delight or sex. In this way: Treatise on want/pleasure/sex. For Vatsyayana, be that as it may, want/delight/sex holds an unexpected significance in comparison to for us world-weary moderns excessively acquainted with commoditized sex. Want, delight and sex in the Kama Sutra are contextualized, seen as a major aspect of a perspective wherein people move together in human expressions of affection and in families and in bigger systems o ungekürzt.
