    The Zoya Factor , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 821min
    When the younger players in India's cricket team find out that advertising executive Zoya Singh Solanki was born at the very moment India won the World Cup back in 1983, they are intrigued. When having breakfast with her is followed by victories on the field, they are impressed. And when not eating with her results in defeat, they decide she's a lucky charm. The nation goes a step further. Amazed at the ragtag team's sudden spurt of victories, it declares her a goddess. So when the eccentric IBCC president and his mesmeric, always exquisitely attired Swamiji invite Zoya to accompany the team to the tenth ICC World Cup, she has no choice but to agree. Pursued by international cricket boards on the one hand, wooed by cola majors on the other, Zoya struggles to stay grounded in the thick of the world cup action. And it doesn't help that she keeps clashing with the erratically brilliant new skipper who tells her flatly that he doesn't believe in luck.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Meetu Chilana.

    Nazis and Nudists , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 310min
    Is history repeating itself? Like many baby boomers, David Haldane got swept into the turbulence of the late 1960s and early '70s, first as a radical activist and later a writer for the Berkeley BARB, then one of America's premier underground newspapers. Eventually, after self-imposed exiles in Europe and Mexico, he married, started a family and graduated to the Los Angeles Times from which he chronicled many of the events that shaped an era. But Haldane always longed for something more, a "green leafy space" in which he could feel at peace. Finally, after a painful divorce, he found it in an unconventional way; with a dark-haired woman met on the Internet and wooed on the exotic islands of the Philippines. Nazis and Nudists is an award-winning series of poignant - and sometimes humorous - essays recounting that long journey. It is a story of love lost and love found. More importantly, it is about the lifelong spiritual quest for a place to call home. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: David Haldane.
