    The Paris Husband: How It Really Was Between Ernest and Hadley Hemingway , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 210min
    Ernest Hemingway was not only one of the most important 20th-century American writers, but also a man whose adventurous and colorful life has become the stuff of legend. War correspondent, ambulance driver, and big-game hunter, he was married four times and his love life was inextricably bound up with his artistic endeavors. His first marriage to Hadley Richardson - with whom he lived in Paris in the early 1920s - has long fascinated readers. Their passionate, complicated, and ultimately “doomed” relationship coincided with Hemingway’s formative years as a member of the so-called Lost Generation, and the failed marriage had a lifelong impact on the man and his writing. In The Paris Husband, author and Hemingway scholar Scott Donaldson deftly separates fact from fiction to present a spellbinding and clear-eyed account of this seminal period in Hemingway’s life. Brilliantly utilizing all essential primary and secondary sources - including the author’s notebooks and drafts - Donaldson breathes new life into this ageless story, providing revelatory insights into Hemingway’s character and exploring the nuances of a magical, yet troubled, love affair. For anyone interested in Hemingway’s development as an artist and why, as an older man, he continued to revisit this transformative and painful episode in his life, The Paris Husband is a lucid, accessible, and compelling narrative that will engage both diehard Hemingway fans, as well as those just discovering this iconic writer. ungekürzt.

    Ten Thousand Saints , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 666min
    Adopted by a pair of diehard hippies, restless, marginal Jude Keffy-Horn spends much of his youth getting high with his best friend, Teddy, in their bucolic and deeply numbing Vermont town. But when Teddy dies of an overdose on the last day of 1987, Jude's relationship with drugs and with his parents devolves to new extremes. Sent to live with his pot-dealing father in New York City's East Village, Jude stumbles upon straight edge, an underground youth culture powered by the paradoxical aggression of hardcore punk and a righteous intolerance for drugs, meat, and sex. With Teddy's half brother, Johnny, and their new friend, Eliza, Jude tries to honor Teddy's memory through his militantly clean lifestyle. But his addiction to straight edge has its own dangerous consequences. While these teenagers battle to discover themselves, their parents struggle with this new generation's radical reinterpretation of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll, and their grown-up awareness of nature and nurture, brotherhood and loss. Moving back and forth between Vermont and New York City, Ten Thousand Saints is an emphatically observed story of a frayed tangle of family members brought painfully together by a death, then carried along in anticipation of a new and unexpected life. With empathy and masterful skill, Eleanor Henderson has conjured a rich portrait of the modern age and the struggles that unite and divide generations. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Empress Dowager Cixi: The Concubine Who Launched Modern China , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1143min
    At the age of 16, in a nationwide selection for royal consorts, Cixi was chosen as one of the emperor’s numerous concubines. When he died, in 1861, their five-year-old son succeeded to the throne. Cixi at once launched a palace coup against the regents appointed by her husband and made herself the real ruler of China - behind the throne, literally, with a silk screen separating her from her officials who were all male. In this groundbreaking biography, Jung Chang vividly describes how Cixi fought against monumental obstacles to change China. Under her the ancient country attained virtually all the attributes of a modern state: industries, railways, electricity, the telegraph, and an army and navy with up-to-date weaponry. It was she who abolished gruesome punishments like “death by a thousand cuts” and put an end to foot-binding. She inaugurated women’s liberation and embarked on the path to introduce parliamentary elections to China. Chang comprehensively overturns the conventional view of Cixi as a diehard conservative and cruel despot. Based on newly available, mostly Chinese, historical documents such as court records, official and private correspondence, diaries, and eyewitness accounts, this biography will revolutionize historical thinking about a crucial period in China’s - and the world’s - history. Packed with drama, fast paced, and gripping, it is both a panoramic depiction of the birth of modern China and an intimate portrait of a woman: as the concubine to a monarch, as the absolute ruler of a third of the world’s population, and as a unique stateswoman. ungekürzt.

    Everything You Need to Know About the Fountainhead , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 105min
    Includes summary and analysis of The Fountainhead's plot, characters, and main themes. Includes a short introduction about the life and political philosophy of Ayn Rand Includes a table of contents "The book is the story of Howard Roark's triumph. It has to show what the man is, what he wants and how he gets it. It has to be a triumphant epic of man's spirit, a hymn glorifying a man's 'I.' It has to show every conceivable hardship and obstacle on his way - and how he triumphs over them, why he has to triumph." (Ayn Rand, The Diaries of Ayn Rand) Few novels have raised the kind of controversy and critical discourse that Ayn Rand's The Fountainhead has. Since its publication in 1943, Rand's book has been admired and exalted just as much as it has been dismissed and ridiculed. It has generated a veritable cult of diehard fans, with the book having sold in excess of six million copies in multiple languages, while others have subjected it to harsh, unyielding criticism. American philosopher Allan Bloom labeled it "hardly literature", while Canadian philosopher Mark Kingwell called it, "Rand's best work, which is not to say it is good." Regardless of the praise and criticism, only a book of importance could have kept the public interest ignited so many years after it first surfaced, lending credence to its influence on international pop culture and politics if not the literary landscape. Moreover, its appeal may have as much to do with its controversial author as does the book itself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Scott Clem.

    Yankee Horses: A Travis Ford Western Featuring Kid Cotton: Travis Ford Western Series , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 287min
    In years to come, Yankee Horses will be thought of as one of the finest post-Civil War stories told. All the hardship and turmoil, the uprooting of families, the complete devastation of the south, and the push west to find a new beginning had the South on the move. It was a time of greedy men from the north feeding off the vanquished, the freed slaves confused and not understanding where they fit in, and the white southerners shamed and humiliated in their loss to a more powerful adversary. Stormy winds blew across the land carrying change, distrust, and suspicion. Kid Cotton is caught up in the change, but not the change he was expecting. He is sentenced to 10 years at hard labor in Louisiana’s notorious Camp 3 for attempted bank robbery. Camp 3 is deep in the Atchafalaya Swamp where no one has ever gotten out alive. After two years under the whip, he escapes with two other convicts and heads for Texas. Their plan is to join up with Travis Ford in Fort Worth and then to Mexico where rumor has it General Shelby has an army of diehard confederate soldiers ready to carry on with the war against the Yankees. Kid’s journey across Louisiana and Texas is jam-packed with danger and hardship. He and his friends take on Union soldiers, carpetbaggers, robbers, thieves, sheriffs, Texas Rangers… there’s trouble at every fork in the road. The ultimate challenge is a renegade Comanche named Black Dog. Kid and Black Dog have a running fight back and forth across Central Texas. A fight where only one will walk away from, or maybe crawl away from. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim Tedder.
