    Beat Me Sweetly, Heavy Jesus , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 330min
    In direct response to the lasting negative effects of the Bush administration, Beat Me Sweetly, Heavy Jesus portrays a United States misrun by a series of Bush clones, each more degraded than the last, anchoring a destructive and self-fellating government which more closely resembles a monarchy. Cast into dismal times are Joe and Sam, men who struggle to survive within the new economy of the reign of President Bush VIII. Led to the unhealthy spotlight of government notice by an unfortunate series of events, they find themselves faced with being both needed and despised by the Bush regime. This striking and controversial work presents a glimpse into the imaginary future of an administration which many including former president Jimmy Carter have called "the worst in history". Read by the author 10 years after writing it, this audiobook presents a multi-faceted look at the way society has numbed itself in adapting to wavering political constructs and decreasing moral capability.

    Test My Pen: Poems (Mes Vers Vers l'Univers) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 28min
    Being conscious of my unique genre, I believe it’s my duty to share my verses to my peers and to the world. I learn from nature to write, I am inspired by my environment to describe and glean from other sources to be taught. As someone who is passionate about arts, I have decided to publish my first English poems into a book title: Test My Pen.My poetry is a symphony of love mixed with nostalgia, joy, and melancholy. Some of my poems portray me as a fragile lover, wavering, sometimes cheerful, sometimes sad. In addition to Haitian Creole and French, I also want to write some poems in English so that English listeners can have a taste of my writing. I define itiahism, the literary doctrine that I am the leader, and I also add some poems that my girlfriends dedicate to me, in which they are very natural and romantic.My book is a repertoire of music, patriotism, love, and eroticism. Please, stand with me to help to promote our youth, inclusion and social cohesion. I need your encouragement, and I am opened for critiques to integrate myself into the American literature. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Clare Radix.
