    Biology 101 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 69min, (USK 18)
    Biology was Emily’s most painful class - not because the subject was difficult, but because she was sitting next to Avery, the sexiest woman alive!Avery, with her long blonde hair and panty-flashing skirts, was Emily’s fantasy in the flesh. Emily, nicknamed Mouse in high school, couldn’t hope to be noticed by the dream girl in the next seat.Except, Avery was throwing out a lot of signals. Inviting Emily for a hike, brushing up against her, murmuring her name in a voice that sent bolts of desire pulsing through Emily’s core. Was she imagining it, or could Avery possibly be interested?“If you were the last girl alive I wouldn’t have you!”A cruel voice from the past echoed in Emily’s ears, causing a surge of humiliation and shame. She had vowed never to look at another girl, and to let her guard down with Avery was too dangerous.Then, fate intervenes. Emily and Avery are assigned to partner on a presentation about primate sexuality. One hot study session at Avery’s apartment leads the partners into some deep research that goes far beyond frisky monkeys! Emily is prepared to let go of the past, until one sexy suggestion reignites her crippling insecurity.What will it take for Emily to rid herself of those crushing memories and start to trust again? How can Avery prove herself to her skittish lover? Her answer - and this lesson in love - will take your breath away. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Louise Flame.

    George Frideric Handel: A Life with Friends , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 777min
    An intimate portrait of Handel’s life and inner circle, modeled after one of the composer’s favorite forms: the fugue. During his lifetime, the sounds of Handel’s music reached from court to theater, echoed in cathedrals, and filled crowded taverns, but the man himself - known to most as the composer of Messiah - is a bit of a mystery. Though he took meticulous care of his musical manuscripts and even provided for their preservation on his death, very little of an intimate nature survives. One document - Handel’s will - offers us a narrow window into his personal life. In it, he remembers not only family and close colleagues but also neighborhood friends. In search of the private man behind the public figure, Ellen T. Harris has spent years tracking down the letters, diaries, personal accounts, legal cases, and other documents connected to these bequests. The result is a tightly woven tapestry of London in the first half of the 18th century, one that interlaces vibrant descriptions of Handel’s music with stories of loyalty, cunning, and betrayal. With this wholly new approach, Harris has achieved something greater than biography. Layering the interconnecting stories of Handel’s friends like the subjects and countersubjects of a fugue, Harris introduces us to an ambitious, shrewd, generous, brilliant, and flawed man, hiding in full view behind his public persona.

    St. Augustine: Life, Eloquence and Theology, Hörbuch, Digital, 360min
    Enjoy this lively course on one of Christianity's greatest figures. St. Augustine of Hippo (354-430) is unquestionably one of the most influential figures in Western civilization. According to his rival and contemporary, St. Jerome, Augustine "established anew the ancient faith". A preeminent doctor of the church, saint, and patron of the Augustinian religious order, he had an indelible influence on Christianity, and his words continue to speak to us today. This audio course will provide you with a comprehensive portrait of St. Augustine. Much of the course is drawn from Augustine's own words, which have echoed throughout the centuries. You will encounter segments devoted to each of his timeless masterpieces (Confessions and City of God) and to each of his best-known controversies (against the Manichees, Donatists, and Pelagians). You will also examine overlooked sides of his career, such as his everyday work as a bishop, a preacher, and an interpreter of the Bible. You will move through the vast corpus of his writings, tuning your ears to the melodies of Augustine's speech and the power of his mind. As you do, you will discover his uncanny ability to speak across the centuries, heart to heart, his heart to ours. Intended for listeners from all walks of life, these lectures bring together state-of-the-art scholarship and lucid translations. You will find a mesmerizing portrait of Augustine as his contemporaries knew him: a theologian of masterful eloquence. Language: English. Narrator: William Harmless.

    Bridges Across Every Divide , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 461min
    Public policy attempts to break the stranglehold of multigenerational poverty have largely failed. Partisan efforts to build personal, family, and community resources and a strong middle class haven’t worked either. One successful approach, based on the Bridges Out of Poverty methodology, focuses on bringing people from all classes, races, and sectors together to reduce poverty and build a sense of community. It’s a promise echoed in the findings of Alexis de Tocqueville, famed observer of American society.Communities using the Bridges model report that political and social agendas and narratives melt away when people focus on overcoming barriers to economic stability.Successful change requires all voices and voters at the table to be heard and valued. The Bridges Out of Poverty model is an antidote to current divisiveness, facilitates dialogue and respect among stakeholders, and offers policy-level direction for elected officials. The authors’ goal is to provide a road map for coming together as individuals, institutions, and communities to help people get out of poverty and create communities, states, and indeed a country where everyone can live well.The Bridges model offers:A table at which all voices are heard and valuedA common language to address the complex issues of povertyProven skills, strategies, and innovations for communities across the USPractical advice for individuals who are new to the world of policy makingAction steps for community members, public officials, and decision makersMethods to create human services policies to reduce generational poverty ungekürzt.

    Heart of Darkness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 268min
    Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness is an exploration of the nature of evil and how far a man can go towards it when released from the constraints of what can be called civilisation. Before beginning his life as a writer at the age of 36, Conrad spent 16 years as a merchant seaman. In 1889 he became captain of a steamboat in the Congo Free State, and the atrocities he witnessed there, perpetrated by the representatives of the Belgian colonial powers, led him to write what he called his Congo Diary. The repulsion Conrad felt for his time in the Congo was compounded by his infection whilst there with malaria, which left him with a malarial gout in the wrist of his writing hand, the pain of which would stay with him for the rest of his life. When Heart of Darkness was published in 1899, it echoed much of Conrad's horrific experience. The journey up the infested Congo River taken by his character Marlow is much like Conrad's own, but the ultimate antihero, Kurtz, with his compulsively magnetic madness, tinkering with the edges of pure evil, is a phenomenal literary creation, one which has excited imitations ever since, most famously in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1979 film Apocalypse Now. It is a terrifying and exhilarating journey, with Conrad taking you to the very depths of human nature and, in Marlow’s case, leaving him there. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Toby Stephens.

    The Rock: The History of Alcatraz Island and America's Most Famous Prison , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 92min
    Alcatraz Island has been home to a lighthouse, a military fort, a national park, and gatherings of Native American protesters, but say the name Alcatraz to any American and they will immediately associate it with prison. This is somewhat ironic since the island, just a mile and a half away from San Francisco in the Bay, was a federal prison for only three decades, but in that time, "The Rock" became notorious for being the most secure prison in the nation. In that time, 3 dozen prisoners tried to escape, which led to the "Battle of Alcatraz" and some of the most complex plots ever made to bust out, but nobody ever successfully escaped The Rock, and several died trying. As one commenter poignantly put it, "You break the rules, you go to prison. You break the prison rules, you go to Alcatraz Prison." Another writer echoed this sentiment, calling Alcatraz "the great garbage can of San Francisco Bay, into which every federal prison dumped its most rotten apples." In a sense, it was fitting that Alcatraz became the most famous prison in American history, because hundreds of years before the penitentiary was located there, it was being used by Native Americans to banish members. Thanks to the strong currents near it and the cold, inhospitable terrain of the small island, Native Americans only used it sparingly, and unruly members were often sent there as punishment. ungekürzt.
