A resident of Delhi, Udai is an engineer and holds a master’s degree in international business. Shruti is from Patna, and she holds a degree in international business and public relations. An artist at heart, she began her first creative expression when she started painting funky T-shirts for her brother to wear during his graduation years. Not only did she find herself being extremely fond of what she was doing, but she also came to realize that her brother and a lot of his friends seemed to love her designs. As destiny had schemed, she crossed paths with Udai at his birthday party, where they were introduced by Udai’s best friend. What could have been any other normal encounter turned into a magical connection where art, love, and life transcended between the two souls, and thus began the story of Shruti and Udai.

Beyond Poetry: Celebrating Nature and Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 56min
Beyond Poetry became the first time I managed to completely and truly get out of my own way to allow the words to flow through me 100 percent from my higher self or source. Originally conceived as simply a follow-up to my 2015 poetry collection A Healing for Gaia, the message of Beyond Poetry both added to and then quite naturally totally transcended my collection of two years previously.Writing this celebration of nature and life has been a thoroughly enjoyable experience for your friendly poet. Inspiration came from the land, ancient legends and folklore, and the stories of ordinary people from pre-history right through to contemporary lives in the 21st century.My intention, right from the beginning, had been to create a collection of exquisitely beautiful poems. I wanted these poetic tales to stand the test of time, to be relevant, and appreciated a hundred or thousand years from now.Beyond Poetry surprised me with the way it came to be. I dedicate this book to all of my listeners, with a wish for you to feel as inspired as I did when it was created. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dean Fraser.

The Boxing Kings: When American Heavyweights Ruled the Ring , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 795min
The Boxing Kings tells the story of the heavyweight title in the days when it was a defining institution in the United States. Author Paul Beston places special emphasis on those champions who held a central place in American culture beyond just in the boxing ring, including John L. Sullivan, who made the title a commercial property; Jack Johnson, who in 1908 became the first black man to claim the title; Joe Louis, whose contributions to racial tolerance and social progress transcended even his greatness in the ring; Rocky Marciano, who became an embodiment of the American dream; Muhammad Ali, who took on the US government and revolutionized professional sports with his showmanship; and Mike Tyson, a hard-punching student of boxing history who exemplified the modern celebrity. The gallery of champions also includes comics, dandies, bookworms, divas, ex-cons, workingmen, and a tough guy turned preacher. The Boxing Kings treats these and other champions as three-dimensional human beings, flawed but sympathetic men placed on great public stages. As the title shifts from one claimant to another, their stories also open a window into the larger history of the United States. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alexander Cendese.

Birds Without Wings, Hörbuch, Digital, 325min
Birds Without Wings traces the fortunes of one small community in southwest Turkey (Anatolia) in the early part of the last century, a quirky community in which Christian and Muslim lives and traditions have co-existed peacefully over the centuries and where friendship, even love, has transcended religious differences. But with the disintegration of the Ottoman Empire and the onset of the Great War, the sweep of history has a cataclysmic effect on this peaceful place: The great love of Philothei, a Christian girl of legendary beauty, and Ibrahim, a Muslim shepherd who courts her from near infancy, culminates in tragedy and madness; Two inseparable childhood friends who grow up playing in the hills above the town suddenly find themselves on opposite sides of the bloody struggle; and Rustem Bey, a wealthy landlord, has an enchanting mistress who is not what she seems. Far away from these small lives, a man of destiny who will come to be known as Mustafa Kemal Ataturk is emerging to create a country from the ruins of an empire. Victory at Gallipoli fails to save the Ottomans from ultimate defeat and, as a new conflict arises, Muslims and Christians struggle to survive, let alone understand, their part in the great tragedy that will reshape the whole region forever.

Cry of the Wind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 994min
Winter looms in this place of icy splendor near the top of the world-chilling a heart already frozen by hatred and cold dreams of revenge? Experience and adversity have made the storyteller Chakliux a wise and powerful hunter and a man of great respect. But a tender heart is his weakness. In his village lives the beautiful Aqamdax for whom he yearns, though she is mated to a cruel and dangerous tribesman she does not love. It is Chakliux she runs to under a clear, moonlit sky while the village sleeps. But there can be no future for them together until a curse upon their people has been transcended. And then there is K'os, the healing woman - maddened and embittered by the outrage she was forced to endure years earlier - outcast and enslaved by the leader of the enemy tribe against whom she has sworn vengeance. To enact her savage and terrible justice, she will use - and destroy - anyone, if necessary, including the boy-turned-man she rescued in infancy and raised as her son: Chakliux, the storyteller. Return now to a frozen land in a remarkable time eighty centuries past, when the spirit was tested - and strengthened - by the cruelties of nature and the great mysteries of life. ungekürzt.

Jackson Family Values: Memories of Madness, Hörbuch, Digital, 171min
For years, Margaret Maldonado Jackson was a celebrant of the good life, living with her Prince Charming - Jermaine - at the Jackson family estate in Encino, California. A former teenage runaway who had barely survived life in the fast lane, she had felt fortunate to be welcomed into the Jackson clan. So why, in 1993, was she running for her life with her children? What had happened to this young woman to make her feel so threatened and so alone? What had she done to make Jermaine and the other Jacksons commit acts of verbal, physical, and legal terrorism upon her, when she only wished to be part of their family? In Jackson Family Values, she tells about the ongoing hostility, paranoia, backbiting, and jealousy that pervades the family, and how suspected or acknowledged instances of rape, murder, abuse, and adultery have touched all their lives: how the greed and sexual swordsmanship of the Jackson males continually erodes the family fabric, and how physical violence is considered a negotiating tool. Told with anecdotal humor and honesty, this is the story of how one young woman transcended years of betrayal and disillusionment to regain independence for herself and her children.
