Cubbyhole Kid , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 140min
Cubbyhole Kid tells a harrowing survival story of a young four-year-old boy as he recounts his days being raised in a strict Irish Catholic family. He expresses his gratitude and love for two incredible women who saved his life: his protective 14-year-old sister, who was also his godmother, and his beautiful, religious mother. Together, along with his other siblings, his brothers, they painfully navigated their abusive, alcoholic, ex-military father through the mid-1960s Los Angeles. While dealing with a severe childhood anxiety, suicidal depression, and physical and learning disabilities at such a young age, the boy traveled inside the cubbyhole, a small, two-by-four middle section of the family station wagon, unexpectedly experiencing his World War II veteran father’s life-threatening road rage. With the fear of death always looming, the boy witnessed his father’s all too familiar, unpredictable violence, explosive temperament, and heavy drinking during our country’s escalating involvement in the Vietnam War, the hippie cultural movement, riots in the streets, and arguably, the heyday of rock-and-roll music. The story describes the boy’s fond memories and relationship with his older sister, who bravely kept him shielded from their father’s harsh punishments and became like a second mother to him. He experienced the beauty of life outside the home during his sister’s “coming of age” teenage years, along with her friends who were part of the youth cultural shift that seemingly took place overnight. The nightly demonstration of violence and abuse coupled with his father’s unwillingness to accept the generational changes taking place with the society’s youth and his mother’s unexpected illness would seem too much and test the young boy’s faith. ungekürzt.

The Four-Window Girl or, How to Make More Money Than Men , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 270min
There are two kinds of women who work, says Shepherd Mead, author of How to Succeed in Business without Really Trying and How to Get Rich in TV without Really Trying. One is the Working Girl, the handmaiden of business: She does what men tell her to do - she types, totes coffee, gripes in her cubicle. The other kind is the Career Girl: She thinks like a man, acts like a woman, and can soon end up in a four-window office making more money than anybody. Marie Frale, new employee at American Household Products, hadn't put many carbons in backward before she got the point. No drone, she. It wasn't long before Marie was conniving and psychologizing her way up, up, up. This book tells the story of her dazzling rise from cubbyhole to conference room. Reading it may make you laugh, but some men will find it a sobering if not actually unnerving experience. Here is a new type of femme fatale. It isn't just her figure that gets her to the top, but the way she figures - and her way makes Machiavelli look like Whistler's mother. Though Shepherd Mead's new novel may seem at first glance to be all for fun, women will at once perceive its down-to-earth usefulness. To the more innocent male executive we say: Read it instantly and be warned. This book is the definitive work on the Four-Window Girl. It also has some definitive things to say about love. Marie is not above losing her heart to a three-window man. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Melanie Haynes. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/001749/bk_acx0_001749_sample.mp3.
