In Every Moment We Are Still Alive , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 563min
Chosen by El País as one of this past decade's nine best novels about life and death. The prize-winning, best-selling tale of love, loss, family and the lives we live moment by moment, from a stunning new voice in European fiction. Tom's heavily pregnant girlfriend, Karin, is rushed to hospital with severe flu. While the doctors are able to save the baby, they are helpless in the face of what transpires to be acute leukemia, and in a moment as fleeting as it is cruel Tom gains a daughter but loses his soul mate. In Every Moment is the story of a year that changes everything, as Tom must reconcile the fury of bereavement with the overwhelming responsibility of raising his daughter, Livia, alone. By turns tragic and redemptive, meditative and breathless, achingly poignant and darkly funny, this heavily autobiographical novel has been described in its native Sweden as 'hypnotic', 'impossible to resist' and 'one of the most powerful books about grief ever written'. ungekürzt.

Shamela: An Apology for the Life of Mrs. Shamela Andrews , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 90min
Shamela is a bawdy, spirited, and hilarious response to Samuel Richardson's hugely popular 1740 novel, Pamela. In this pointed satire, Shamela (which transpires to be the real name of Richardson's Pamela) reveals the ulterior motives behind the events that took place in Pamela. Shamela is unlike the virtuous young lady portrayed in Richardson's novel and she takes command of her master, Squire Booby. Our heroine has planned it all out from the start and she is determined to entrap her master into marriage. Fielding, most famous as the author of Tom Jones and Joseph Andrews, equated morality with expediency, and he takes advantage of the comic form to provide a multi-layered satire of contemporary politics and values. He lampoons political figures, the clergy, and contemporary writers with criticisms that, most importantly, contribute to a comic tour-de-force unlike any other. PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your My Library section along with the audio. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Full of Love but a Little Bit Rough , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 61min, (USK 18)
My new girlfriend is about to unleash a side of myself that's wilder than I've ever before seen. I'm just a little bit late to the party when it comes to my sexuality. Growing up, I was what you might call a closeted lesbian, and it took entering into college to break me out of my shell as far as that was concerned. I suppose I should be considered a fully grown adult now, but my squeamishness when it comes to sexual matters has remained largely intact for some time now. I'm dating a girl named Melanie, an absolute bombshell with whom I slightly believe myself to be in love. I'm nervous, however, upon hearing that Melanie has a reputation for being rough when it comes to matters of the bedroom. It's our third date now, and when talk of hitting the sheets at last transpires, I confess my fear of rough play in the bedroom. Melanie agrees to take things easy with me and go to a level that's comfortable for me until the two of us are in sync on things. Little do I know how very, very far the night is about to devolve into sheer, splendid carnal depravity. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Linda Shej.
