Raiders: A Novel: The Highliners Trilogy, Book #3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 990min

Here the third story in McCloskey’s thrilling saga of the Alaskan fishermen. Twenty years after his greenhorn days in William McCloskey’s bestselling novel, Highliners, Hank Crawford stands tall as a respected fishing captain in Kodiak, Alaska. Set amongst the tumult of the early 1980s, Raiders follows the struggles of the Alaskan fishermen as they regain control of their fishing grounds from the fleets of foreign companies who have been plundering their bays. But such companies aren’t deterred, and instead they contract American boats to catch the fish for them. In order to keep his family afloat, he swears, Hank signs on with a Japanese firm. Shunned as a traitor by his peers, Hank keeps on fishing. Their disgust and his tainted ethics will all be worth it for the chance to keep on fishing. But when Hank begins to suspect that his new employers are playing a political game - and using him as the pawn - he must confront the possibility that in order to find redemption, he’ll have to sacrifice all he has. In this masterful finale to the Highliners series, McCloskey takes on the all-too-real horrors of the seafaring life: storms that can sink a ship, giant fish that can snap a man’s arm. For anyone in love with the Alaskan backdrop, the feel of hauling in fish, or traveling the ever-changing sea, Raiders is a story to read, cherish, and never forget. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Bourgeois Virtues: Ethics for an Age of Commerce , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1392min

For a century and a half, the artists and intellectuals of Europe have scorned the bourgeoisie. And for a millennium and a half, the philosophers and theologians of Europe have scorned the marketplace. The bourgeois life, capitalism, Mencken's "booboisie", and David Brooks's "bobos" all have been, and still are, framed as being responsible for everything from financial to moral poverty, world wars, and spiritual desuetude. Countering these centuries of assumptions and unexamined thinking is Deirdre McCloskey's The Bourgeois Virtues, a magnum opus that offers a radical view: capitalism is good for us. McCloskey's sweeping, charming, and even humorous survey of ethical thought and economic realities - from Plato to Barbara Ehrenreich - overturns every assumption we have about being bourgeois. Can you be virtuous and bourgeois? Do markets improve ethics? Has capitalism made us better as well as richer? Yes, yes, and yes, argues McCloskey, who takes on centuries of capitalism's critics with her erudition and sheer scope of knowledge. Applying a new tradition of "virtue ethics" to our lives in modern economies, she affirms American capitalism without ignoring its faults and celebrates the bourgeois lives we actually live, without supposing that they must be lives without ethical foundations. High Noon, Kant, Bill Murray, the modern novel, van Gogh, and of course economics and the economy all come into play in an audiobook that can only be described as a monumental project and a life's work. The Bourgeois Virtues is nothing less than a dazzling reinterpretation of Western intellectual history, and a dead-serious reply to the critics of capitalism. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Warriors: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 853min

The long-awaited prequel to the best-selling Highliners saga. William McCloskey is back and better than ever in Warriors, the potent new prequel to Highliners, Breakers, and Raiders. Long before Hank Crawford arrived in the waters of Ketchikan, his partners and compatriots were already in love with its shores. Following the final, crushing moments of World War II, Japanese officer Kiyoshi Tsurifune, Sergeant Jones Henry, and Resistance fighter Swede Scorden struggle to regain normalcy and any contact with the shimmering, fish-filled sea. Lost honor, fallen friends, their cultural identities gone in the wake of a nuclear blast - these fishermen-turned-soldiers have a long way to go till they regain the waters in which they feel most at home. But as each finds his way to the bays of Alaska - Jones as fisherman, Swede eager for work in the cannery, Kiyoshi an ambassador for the Japanese trade - things aren’t as smooth as they had dreamed. A new union calls for a strike during the height of the salmon season, and expensive new engine boats are replacing the sails and oars fishermen like Jones Henry have relied on for years. Plus, unhealed wounds make the looming deal between Alaskan fishermen and Japanese buyers painful for many. Behind every conversation, the question looms: Will these war-torn men ever find their peace again? Sweeping and powerful, like the pull of the ocean, Warriors is a novel that can’t be paused and that can never be forgotten. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Aaron Abano.

The Works of F. Scott Fitzgerald: 45 Short Stories and Novels , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 2711min

Fitzgerald's short stories have themes that not only relate to the problems and culture of the Jazz Age, but also to the promises and despair encountered by the youth, as well as the aging. Love and relationships between two mismatched or unlikely characters are common, such as people who are unlikely to develop a spark of romantic interest between each other. The plots are usually set in the culture of the upper middle class and the elite, with characters either from this social group or aspiring to become part of it. Being inspired by the events that occurred during The Great Depression and the stock market crash, the stories also involve characters who lose wealth, but who are still trying to maintain their opulent lifestyle. However, Fitzgerald's stories will remain relevant no matter which era listeners are born into, as finding true love and happiness, despite the situation, will always be a common part of the human experience. Included in this book: Novels: This Side of Paradise The Beautiful and Damned Short Stories: The Mystery of the Raymond Mortgage Reade, Substitute Right Half A Debt of Honor The Room with the Green Blinds A Luckless Santa Claus Pain and the Scientist The Trail of the Duke Shadow Laurels The Ordeal Little Minnie McCloskey: A Story for Girls The Old Frontiersman: A Story of the Frontier The Diary of a Sophomore The Prince of Pests: A Story of the War Cedric the Stoker The Spire and the Gargoyle Tarquin of Cheapside Babes in the Woods Sentiment - And the Use of Rouge The Pierian Springs and the Last Straw Porcelain and Pink Head and Shoulders Benediction Dalyrimple Goes Wrong Myra Meets His Family Mister Icky The Camel's Back Bernice Bobs Her Hair The Ice Palace The Offshore Pirate The Cut-Glass Bowl The Four Fists The Smilers May Day The Jelly-Bean The Lees of Happiness Jemina O Russet Witch!
