Thursday, 8:00 a.m.:Mocha moments, breakfast club! Every week, these words appear in the calendars of four women.

Clare has just been through a devastating and unexpected divorce. She’s driven by anger and revenge - until she learns something about her ex-husband that forces her to question her own actions. Forces her to look deep inside for the forgiveness she’s rejected…and the person she used to be. Elizabeth is a widow, in her late fifties, a successful professional. A woman who’s determined not to waste another second of her life. And if that life should include romantic possibilities - well, why not?

Except that her parents think she should be more like her sister, the very conventional Victoria! Julia is turning forty this year.

No Man's Land , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1395min
No Man's Land is Simon Tolkien's first literary novel - it's a picture of early 20th-century England torn apart by the First World War, as seen through the eyes of a working-class boy whose turbulent life is finally coming together when he is posted to the Somme in 1916. Adam Raine was raised in the slums of Islington by his working-class mother and father. When his mother is killed in a workers' protest march, his father, unable to cope, puts him in the workhouse. He's rescued by a job offer for his father in the coal mining town of Scarsdale, but the local boys prove difficult to befriend, and he never quite fits in. A colliery disaster changes Adam's fate again when he is adopted into the rich mine owner's family. Unfortunately the man's son, Bryce Scarsdale, refuses to accept him and subjects him to years of cruelty. In his 18th year, Adam escapes by enrolling in Oxford, but his studies are interrupted by the outbreak of war. It isn't long before Adam is forced to leave his new fiancée, the Parson's beautiful daughter, and is sent to the battlefields of the Somme, accompanied by the boys he grew up with. Within this brotherhood Adam finally finds the family he's always longed for, but the war threatens to tear them apart. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Steven Crossley.
