    Tales from the Perilous Realm: Four BBC Radio 4 Full-Cast Dramatisations, Hörbuch, Digital, 288min
    Four BBC radio dramatisations starring Michael Hordern as Tolkien - plus a special archive compilation exploring Tolkien's life and work. The tales in this collection all reflect an aspect of what Tolkien himself called 'the perilous realm of Faerie'. Adapted for radio by Brian Sibley, co-writer of the acclaimed BBC radio production of The Lord of the Rings, they are rich in myth, magic and adventure. Among the supporting cast are Brian Blessed, Nigel Planer, Sorcha Cusack, Paul Copley and James Grout. In 'Farmer Giles of Ham', having accidentally shot a giant, Farmer Giles' brave reputation is tested by Chrysophylax the dragon. In 'Smith of Wootton Major', a young boy eats a piece of cake containing a silver star, and is granted access to the magical land of Fäerie. 'Leaf by Niggle' is a thought-provoking allegory of the creative process, and 'The Adventures of Tom Bombadil' features Tom and the Hobbits in scenes from The Lord of the Rings which were not included in the BBC Radio 4 dramatisation. Also included is 'J R R Tolkien: An Audio Portrait', in which Brian Sibley draws together interviews from radio and television programmes featuring the author himself, his original publisher Rayner Unwin, his biographer Humphrey Carpenter and many others, to relate the story of both Tolkien the man and the worlds he created. Language: English. Narrator: full cast. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/rhuk/003001/bk_rhuk_003001_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Tod am Strand (MP3-Download)
    Glamourös, klug und unabhängig, eine moderne Frau und eine gewitzte Detektivin - das ist Phryne Fisher. Die wohlhabende englische Aristokratin lässt sich in den wilden 1920er Jahren in Melbourne nieder und lebt mit ihren beiden Adoptivtöchtern in St. Kilda, wo sie ihr Single-Dasein in vollen Zügen genießt - und nebenbei einen Mordfall nach dem anderen löst. Nicht immer zur Freude der örtlichen Polizei. Das kleine Städtchen St. Kilda steht kopf: Der Zirkus ist in der Stadt, und in wenigen Tagen wird die große Blumenparade stattfinden. Und natürlich wird die allseits beliebte Phryne Fisher die "Queen of Flowers" sein. Mitten in den turbulenten Vorbereitungen wird plötzlich eines der Blumenmädchen halbtot am Strand aufgefunden, kurz darauf ist auch Phrynes Adoptivtochter Ruth wie vom Erdboden verschluckt. Nun ist Phryne Fishers Spürsinn gefragt. Unerschrocken, mit Charme und Chuzpe ermittelt sie zwischen Tee und Tango, unter Puppenspielern und Halunken und schreckt weder vor ehemaligen Liebhabern noch vor Elefanten zurück ... Die Originalausgabe erschien 2004 unter dem Titel "Queen of the Flowers " bei Allen & Unwin, Crows Nest, Australia. © Kerry Greenwood 2004 © der deutschen Ausgabe Insel Verlag Berlin 2019

    Das europäische Geschichtsbuch
    Fünfzehn Historiker aus dreizehn Ländern Europas legen das erste grenzüberschreitende Geschichtsbuch von europäischem Format vor. In ihrem herausragenden Werk verortet sich das alte und neue Europa historisch und entwirft seine Leitlinien für das 21. Jahrhundert.Schon immer war Europa einem Prozess ständigen Wandels unterworfen - von den ersten Besiedlungen, der griechischen und römischen Antike über die Renaissance, die Reformation und die Aufklärung bis hin zur Moderne. Die fünfzehn Autoren widmen sich der europäischen Geschichte in ihrer gesamten Breite aus ganz unterschiedlichen Blickwinkeln. Sie alle schreiben mit an der Geschichte des Anderen, des Nachbarn, sei er geographisch nah oder fern, sei er ein früherer Feind oder ein gelegentlich schwieriger Freund. Damit wird dem Leser ein einzigartiges Panorama vor Augen geführt, das sich im Geiste der europäischen Toleranz entfaltet. Die AutorenJacques Aldebert (Frankreich)Johan Bender (Dänemark)M.

    Ever After (eBook, ePUB)
    FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF LAST ORDERS AND MOTHERING SUNDAY, reissued for the first time in Scribner Bill Unwin, an academic of dubious status, has never recovered from the death of his famous actress wife and is now convalescing from a recent brush with his own mortality. He has two tales to tell. One, spanning post-war Paris, 1950s Soho and contemporary sexual and scholarly entanglements, surveys the muddle of his own life. The other, drawn from the notebooks of a Victorian ancestor, is the very different story of Matthew Pearce, a serious-minded man whose happiness is destroyed by his compulsive search for truth. Bill's recollections of his beautiful wife, his wayward mother and his philandering stepfather, his wry reflections on his present plight and his unexpected bond with the forgotten Matthew combine to form a potent and moving mental quest. Embracing two centuries and a host of subjects-from ballet dancers and prehistoric beasts to the bewildering persistence of love-it asks nothing less than the eternal question: 'Why should things matter?' 'A perfect piece of literary art' The Spectator 'Masterfully done' Washington Post

    The Hobbit Facsimile First Edition
    This sumptuous gift set includes a replica of the very rare first edition of The Hobbit, the only edition where one can now read the original version of the story before Tolkien re-edited it to become the one enjoyed by readers since 1951.The Hobbit was published on 21 September 1937, with a print run of 1,500 copies. With a beautiful cover design, nearly a dozen black & white illustrations and two black & red maps by the author himself, the book proved to be popular and was reprinted shortly afterwards. History was already being made.The scarcity of the first edition has resulted in copies commanding huge prices, way beyond the reach of most Tolkien fans. In addition, subsequent changes to the text - particularly those to chapter 5, when Tolkien decided in 1947 to revise the text to bring it better into accord with events as they were developing in its 'sequel', The Lord of the Rings - mean that the opportunity to read the book in its original form and format has become quite difficult.This special printing reprints the first edition, so that readers of all ages - not just 'children between the ages of 5 and 9', as Rayner Unwin famously declared in his report on the original submission - can finally enjoy Tolkien's story as it originally appeared.
