    Seduction of Colette , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 372min, (USK 18)
    The year is 1658. Colette, daughter of a drunken and impoverished nobleman, has just been ‘lost’ in a wager, given to the dashing Lord Philippe de Valon, as payment for gambling debts. Against a backdrop of the lavish and decadent Court at Versailles, Colette is exposed to the delicious but dangerous attentions of a man used to taking what he wants. When Philippe is called away on King’s business, Colette is left in the hands of his sour old aunt, who regards Colette with suspicion and disdain. On their trip to Philippe’s castle in the north of France, Colette and her handmaid are abducted by a gang of ruffians. Will Philippe be able to rescue Colette before her innocence is lost at the hands of her tormentors? Or will she become the debased sex slave of hardened criminals?   Seduction of Colette is a story of sexual awakening, of courage and virtue in the face of depravity, and ultimately, of true love.  Caution: This book contains scenes of forced submission which some listeners may find offensive. ungekürzt.

    The Handmaid's Tale
    #1 New York Times bestseller An instant classic and eerily prescient cultural phenomenon, from "the patron saint of feminist dystopian fiction" (New York Times). Now an award-winning Hulu series starring Elizabeth Moss. Look for The Testaments, the sequel to The Handmaid's Tale, available now. In Margaret Atwood's dystopian future, environmental disasters and declining birthrates have led to a Second American Civil War. The result is the rise of the Republic of Gilead, a totalitarian regime that enforces rigid social roles and enslaves the few remaining fertile women. Offred is one of these, a Handmaid bound to produce children for one of Gilead's commanders. Deprived of her husband, her child, her freedom, and even her own name, Offred clings to her memories and her will to survive. At once a scathing satire, an ominous warning, and a tour de force of narrative suspense, The Handmaid's Tale is a modern classic. Includes an introduction by Margaret Atwood
