    SLINGSHOT (eBook, ePUB)
    SLINGSHOT questions the value of manhood, the price of sex, and the possibility of liberation. SLINGSHOT begins with the author ensconced in the menacing isolation of the pastoral, but once the work migrates to the City, monstrum grows form and fangs. In these messy, horny, desperate poems spun from dream logic, Cyrée Jarelle Johnson considers the consequences of black sexual and gender deviance, as well as the emotional burden of being forced to the rim of society, then punished for what keeps you alive.

People will think she is crazy and lock her away in a mental hospital. Now, an old woman, Adamine wants to tell her own story but she must compete with Mr. Writer Man, the novelist who is twisting her words for his own book, and Adamine doesn’t know why.

    Plato's Republic , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 808min
    Plato's The Republic is regarded as one of the most significant works in the history of literature. In it, Plato seeks to define justice - what it means to society, to politics, to humankind. He then hopes to draw a conclusion against mass justice and individual justice. He first defines justice via social classes, but then migrates to the idea that personal justice mirrors that of the organized, or governmental, justice. He uses the analogy of the sun, the line, and the cave to draw similarities between the philosopher and his role to play in societal justice. Finally, Plato concludes that justice is justified by the ends and not the means, that is, it provides individual pleasure beyond just "right" and "wrong."  Considered a great book of all classical literature, Plato's The Republic is a must-listen for those wanting to explore the element of justice more. ungekürzt.
