A bold, timely novel about speaking up and coming out as parents lobby to ban a beloved book from the middle school curriculum from New York Times-bestselling author David Levithan. When Donovan left his copy of The Adventurers on the kitchen counter, he didn't think his mom would read it-much less have a problem with it. It's just an adventure novel about two characters trying to stop an evil genius...right? But soon the entire town is freaking out about whether the book's main characters are gay, Donovan's mom is trying to get the book removed from the school curriculum, and Donovan is caught in the middle. Donovan doesn't really know if the two boys fall in love at the end or not-but he does know this: even if they do, it shouldn't matter. The book shouldn't be banned from school. Interweaving three connected storylines, David Levithan delivers a bold, fun, and timely story about taking action (whether it's against book censors of killing aligators...), being brave, and standing up for what's right.- Shop: buecher

Fire in the Belly: The Life and Times of David Wojnarowicz , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1526min
David Wojnarowicz was an abused child, a teen runaway who barely finished high school, but he emerged as one of the most important voices of his generation. He found his tribe in New York’s East Village, a neighborhood noted in the 1970s and ’80s for drugs, blight, and a burgeoning art scene. His creativity spilled out in paintings, photographs, films, texts, installations, and in his life and its recounting - creating a sort of mythos around himself. His circle of East Village artists moved into the national spotlight just as the AIDS plague began its devastating advance, and as right-wing culture warriors reared their heads. As Wojnarowicz’s reputation as an artist grew, so did his reputation as an agitator - because he dealt so openly with his homosexuality, so angrily with his circumstances as a Person With AIDS, and so fiercely with his would-be censors. Fire in the Belly is the untold story of a polarizing figure at a pivotal moment in American culture - and one of the most highly acclaimed biographies of the year. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Greta is currently the video buyer at Blowfish.com, Susie's favorite sex toys Web site.

In Bed with Susie Bright 572: Military Rape, Chinese Porn Censors, and Scholars who Study Money Shots, Hörbuch, Digital, 28min, (USK 18)
China is well-known for its bootleg DVD sales. Not only are the latest Hollywood blockbusters available, but so are the hottest porn movies. But porn is illegal, so the need to censor the offending entertainment creates jobs for teams of men watching porn. Susie is all over this bizarre news story about the sad workers who become numb after years of viewing graphic scenes. Sounds like a pretty hard job! Next, more porn. This time we look into scholarly interest in pornography at Rutger's University. A new international, peer-reviewed journal, Porn Studies, will debut in 2014. Susie sees this as a logical step, since porn is an important part of global culture and industry. This forthcoming journal will advance research and debate on the diverse world of pornography. Then, it's the "Try This at Home" mailbag. A listener is seriously troubled: "My little sister is joining the army, and all I can think is that she's going to be raped. What in the world can I do to help her?" Have a question? You can call Susie's hotline at 831-480-5110. And you can send your confidential questions - plus requests for free samples and blog banners! - to susie@susiebright.com [Episode 572, May 31, 2013] Explicit Language Warning: You must be 18 years or older to purchase this program.

The Big Picture: The Fight for the Future of Movies , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 584min
The stunning metamorphosis of twenty-first-century Hollywood and what lies ahead for the art and commerce of filmIn the past decade, Hollywood has endured a cataclysm on a par with the end of silent film and the demise of the studio system. Stars and directors have seen their power dwindle, while writers and producers lift their best techniques from TV, comic books, and the toy biz. The future of Hollywood is being written by powerful corporate brands like Marvel, Amazon, Netflix, and Lego, as well as censors in China.Ben Fritz chronicles this dramatic shakeup with unmatched skill, bringing equal fluency to both the financial and entertainment aspects of Hollywood. He dives deeply into the fruits of the Sony hack to show how the previous model, long a creative and commercial success, lost its way. And he looks ahead through interviews with dozens of key players at Disney, Marvel, Netflix, Amazon, Imax, and others to discover how they have reinvented the business. He shows us, for instance, how Marvel replaced stars with “universes”, and how Disney remade itself in Apple’s image and reaped enormous profits.But despite the destruction of the studios’ traditional playbook, Fritz argues that these seismic shifts signal the dawn of a new heyday for film. The Big Picture shows the first glimmers of this new golden age through the eyes of the creative mavericks who are defining what our movies will look like in the new era. ungekürzt.

United States of Japan , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 593min
United States of Japan is set in a gripping alternate history where the Japanese Empire rules over America with huge robots. Is resistance possible in the form of subversive video games? Decades ago, Japan won the Second World War. Americans worship their infallible emperor, and nobody believes that Japan's conduct in the war was anything but exemplary. Nobody, that is, except the George Washingtons, a group of rebels fighting for freedom. Their latest terrorist tactic is to distribute an illegal video game that asks players to imagine what the world might be like if the United States had won the war instead. Captain Beniko Ishimura's job is to censor video games, and he is tasked with getting to the bottom of this disturbing new development. But Ishimura's hiding something...kind of. He's slowly been discovering that the case of the George Washingtons is more complicated than it seems, and the subversive video game's origins are even more controversial and dangerous than the censors originally suspected. A spiritual sequel to Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High Castle, United States of Japan carries on the legacy of Dick's famous alternate history, focusing on how Americans and Japanese deal with their guilt and troubled relationship to the past. Peter Tieryas is a character artist who has worked on films like Guardians of the Galaxy, Alice in Wonderland and Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2. His novel, Bald New World, was listed as one of Buzzfeed's 15 Highly Anticipated Books as well as Publishers Weekly's Best Science Fiction Books of Summer 2014. ungekürzt. Language: English.
