Their travels together lead them from Wichita to Europe, but trailing them is some unwanted baggage: his new lady love's unstable, criminal ex-boyfriend.

    The Price of Inequality: How Today's Divided Society Endangers Our Future , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 784min
    The top 1 percent of Americans control 40 percent of the nation's wealth. And, as Joseph E. Stiglitz explains, while those at the top enjoy the best health care, education, and benefits of wealth, they fail to realize that "their fate is bound up with how the other 99 percent live." Stiglitz draws on his deep understanding of economics to show that growing inequality is not inevitable: moneyed interests compound their wealth by stifling true, dynamic capitalism. They have made America the most unequal advanced industrial country while crippling growth, trampling on the rule of law, and undermining democracy. The result: a divided society that cannot tackle its most pressing problems. With characteristic insight, Stiglitz examines our current state, then teases out its implications for democracy, for monetary and budgetary policy, and for globalization. He closes with a plan for a more just and prosperous future. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Boehmer. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/tant/002556/bk_tant_002556_sample.mp3.

    Shadow Box: An Amateur in the Ring , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 782min
    George Plimpton makes his riskiest foray into participatory journalism - stepping into the ring against a champion boxer - in Shadow Box, now including never-before-heard content from the Plimpton archives. Stepping into the ring against light-heavyweight champion Archie Moore, George Plimpton pauses to wonder what ever induced him to become a participatory journalist. Bloodied but unbowed, he holds his own in the bout - and lives to tell in this timeless book on boxing and its devotees, among them Ali, Joe Frazier, Ernest Hemingway, and Norman Mailer. Shadow Box is one of Plimpton's most engaging studies of professional sport, told through the eyes of an inquisitive and astute amateur. From the gym, from the locker room, ringside, and even in the harsh glare of the ring itself, Plimpton documents what it is like to be a boxer, an artist of mayhem.

    Eiskalt: Die dunklen Fälle des Harry Dresden 14, Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1106min
    Kaum von den Toten wiederauferstanden, sehnt er sich schon wieder nach dem Tod. Er ist nicht länger Harry Dresden, Chicagos einziger professioneller Magier, sondern Harry Dresden, Winterritter Mabs, der Königin von Luft und Finsternis. Harry hatte keine andere Wahl, als Mab die Treue zu schwören, und sie lässt sich nicht von so etwas Belanglosem wie dem Tod abhalten, um zu bekommen, was sie begehrt. Nun ist ihr Wort Harrys Befehl, egal was sie von ihm verlangt, wohin sie ihn entsendet oder wen er für sie töten soll. Wie aber lautet wohl Mabs erster Befehl? Natürlich ist es kein gewöhnlicher Mordauftrag. Sie fordert von ihrem neuen Untergebenen nicht weniger als das Unmögliche: Er soll eine Unsterbliche töten. Kein Problem, oder? Um es noch ein wenig schlimmer zu machen, wächst die Bedrohung durch eine unerklärliche neue Form der Magie, die Harry die Sorte Ärger einhandeln könnte, die den Tod wie Urlaub wirken lässt. Umgeben von alten und neuen Freunden und Feinden muss Harry unzählige Unschuldige vor dem Tod bewahren und dabei einen Weg finden, um der ewigen Knechtschaft zu entrinnen, bevor seine neuerworbenen Kräfte das Einzige von ihm fordern, was noch ihm gehört... seine Seele.

    Masters of Enterprise: American Business History and the People Who Made it , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 501min
    Since the formation of the American Republic the principles of free enterprise and equal opportunity have been at the very core of economic philosophy. During the revolution, colonists fought not only for intangibles like "liberty" and "justice," but also for the promises of a free market that provided everyone with the opportunity to pursue economic advancement regardless of social position and unsubjugated to a crown. America quickly became a society in which an individual's success would be measured not by birthright, but rather by determination. In this atmosphere, men and women have sought fortune limited only by their own abilities, their willingness to work hard, and their courage in the face of unknown dangers. In this course, we'll examine the lives and careers of successful men and women who seized the opportunities offered by the vibrant and open economy that has ensued. We'll examine how each of these individuals found the necessary resources - both economic and personal - to achieve greatness in the business arena. In doing so, we hope not only to arrive at a better understanding of American business history in general, but also to commune with its greatest visionaries - its Masters of Enterprise. ungekürzt.

    One Summer Day in Rome: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 456min
    New York, Paris, London - every grand metropolis - has its own irresistible attraction, but Rome so swirls with stories of saints and sinners...lovers and fighters, that she compels you towards her, like gravity.... No one leaves her unaltered. Part of you always loves her. This is the place where passions are aroused, senses inflamed, and lovers fall into each other's arms. It all appears to unfold like magic, but I will tell you what really happens.... Come with me, if you will, and observe my labors. Mark Lamprell's One Summer Day in Rome is an enchanting audiobook about three couples drawn irresistibly to Rome, narrated by the city itself. Alice, an art student in New York City, has come to Rome in search of adventure and inspiration before settling down with her steady, safe fiancé. Meg and Alec, busy parents and successful businesspeople from LA, are on a mission to find the holy grail, a certain blue tile that will make their home renovation complete - but soon it becomes clear that their marriage needs a makeover as well. Connie and Lizzie are women of a certain age - "Sometimes I look at my laughter lines and wonder what on earth could have been that funny" - who come from London to scatter the ashes of their beloved husband and brother. Both women are seemingly done with romance, but Rome has other ideas. Brimming with wit and charm (and gelato), One Summer Day in Rome is the most delicious audiobook you will listen to this summer. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steve West.
