    Seducing Stephen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 348min
    Visiting a wealthy friend during university holiday, Stephen wakes to find his bed invaded by a late arriving, drunken houseguest stumbling into the wrong room. From this dubious beginning, a romance slowly develops. At first Lord Peter Northrup is only interested in the young man as a lusty diversion. He tutors him in secret pleasures shared by men like them, intending to keep their special liaison brief, light, and temporary. But after Northrup leaves, he can't forget the young man who managed to touch his jaded heart. During their time apart, Peter and Stephen change, and when they meet again, their affair flames hotter than ever. Can a peer of the realm and a middle-class young man bearing heavy responsibilities maintain a lasting relationship? Will Peter accept the possibility of true love in his shallow life, and will Stephen risk everything and trust a man who's already hurt him once? ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Genial Gene: Deconstructing Darwinian Selfishness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 505min
    Are selfishness and individuality - rather than kindness and cooperation - basic to biological nature? Does a "selfish gene" create universial sexual conflict? In The Genial Gene, Joan Roughgarden forcefully rejects these and other ideas that have come to dominate the study of animal evolution. Building on her brilliant and innovative book Evolution's Rainbow, in which she challenged accepted wisdom about gender identity and sexual orientation, Roughgarden upends the notion of the selfish gene and the theory of sexual selection and develops a compelling and controversial alternative theory called social selection. This scientifically rigorous, model-based challenge to an important tenet of new-Darwinian theory emphasizes cooperation, elucidates the factors that contribute to evolutionary success in a gene pool or animal social system, and vigorously demonstrates that to identify Darwinism with selfishness and individuality misrepresents the facts of life as we now know them.This book is published by University of California Press. ungekürzt.

    My Heart Belongs To...: A Novel of Age Play , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 372min, (USK 18)
    Her heart belonged to master and so did her body! What starts out as a friendly and kinky online chat explodes into an intense lust-at-first-site hookup after Kay and Jon get together when she travels from California to New York on business. Over the course of six age-play novelettes, now combined into this wonderfully erotic novel, their relationship develops via racy video chats, emails, phone calls, and texts, plus visits to the San Francisco Bay Area by Jon. Despite fully embracing her submissiveness to the dominant Jon, Kay has a little domme in her, which she indulges with local male and female playmates, and even on occasion with Jon. Theirs is a flexible D/s relationship that in no way resembles lifestyle BDSM, though equally kinky - heavy into erotic pleasure-pain sex. Includes: "The Master's Little Girl", "The Master's Little Miss", "The Master's Little Toy", "The Master's Little Mess", "The Master's Little Jewel", and "The Master's Little Angel". ungekürzt.

    From critically acclaimed writer Elaine Neil Orr, a Southern coming-of-age novel that sets three very different young people against the tumultuous years of the American Civil Rights movement.

Kate, a recent college graduate, is still reeling from the deaths of her beloved parents when the discovery of hidden letters forces her to re-examine everything she knew about her family. Tacker, a young engineering student and all-around boy-hero, has returned from a West African odyssey where he fell in love with the local culture but was sent home in shame. Kate's and Tacker's stories come together when, on the same day and in different moments, they encounter a young African American man named Gaines. The relationship that develops between the three is complicated, as each one searches for love, freedom, and new beginnings. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cassandra Campbell.

    The Bostonians , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1019min
    From Boston's social underworld emerges Verena Tarrant, a girl with extraordinary oratorical gifts, which she deploys in tawdry meeting-houses on behalf of "the sisterhood of women". She acquires two admirers of a very different stamp: Olive Chancellor, devotee of radical causes, and marked out for tragedy; and Basil Ransom, veteran of the Civil War, with rigid views concerning society and women's place therein. Is the lovely, lighthearted Verena made for public movements or private passions? A struggle to possess her, body and soul, develops between Olive and Basil. The exploitation of Verena's unregenerate innocence reflects a society whose moral and cultural values are failing to survive the new dawn of liberalism and democracy. The Bostonians (1886) was not welcomed by James's fellow countrymen, who failed to appreciate its delicacy and wit; but a century later, this book is widely regarded as James's finest American fiction, and perhaps his comic masterpiece. ungekürzt.

    The Essence of Budo: A Practitioner's Guide to Understanding the Japanese Martial Ways , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 380min
    The study of budo, or the Japanese martial arts for self-cultivation, is a lifelong path toward perfection of character. Here, Dave Lowry, a sword master who has practiced and taught budo for over 40 years, addresses the myriad issues, vagaries, and inconsistencies that arise for students of karate-do, judo, kendo, kenjutsu, aikido, and iaido as their training develops. He examines such questions as: What is the relationship between the student and teacher, and what should one expect from the other? What does rank really mean? How do you correctly and sensitively practice with someone less experienced than you? What does practice look like as one ages? Why do budo arts put such an emphasis on etiquette? And many others Lowry also gives practical advice for beginning and advanced students on improving structural integrity in posture and movement, focusing under stress, stances and preparatory actions before engaging with an opponent, and recognizing a good teacher from a bad one. ungekürzt.
