The Children of My Knee , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 829min
Len Cooper is ample proof that every American black man's story is not the same. He has been a boy in brutal segregated Alabama and an invisible homeless man in the nation's capital. He sought holiness and comfort, entering a monastery to become a priest at a time when the Catholic Church was in denial about racism, homosexuality, and robed predators. Still, Cooper rises to become a writer and a world traveler who finds solace and home in a land that is supposed to be foreign: Israel.

The Monocle Travel Guide to Marrakech, Tangier + Casablanca

And to help you sift through the noise, here's our rundown of the best that Morocco has to offer. Marhaba!Morocco may be a short hop, skip and a jump across the Med from Europe but it feels like another world. Salesmen flaunting their wares in the souks, robed figures rushing to prayer and ancient palaces decked with dazzling tiles - it's easy to fall under its spell.Marrakech, on the cusp of both desert and mountain, offers old-world glamour and an enthralling sense of adventure. Casablanca, lapped by the Atlantic, is a thoroughly modern metropolis with a special affinity for art deco. And at the northernmost tip of the country is the eccentric cliffside city of Tangier, where many a writer and artist have pitched up and sought inspiration over the years.- Shop: buecher

The Green Lama #7 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 275min
The jade-robed Buddhist priest who battled crime as the Green Lama is back! Conceived in 1939 at the behest of the editors of Munsey Publications to compete with the Shadow, it was an outlandish concept. While the Shadow possessed the power to cloud men's minds after his time in the East, the Green Lama relied on other even weirder powers - including the ability to become radioactive and electrically shock opponents into submission! He carried a traditional Tibetan scarf, which he employed to bind and befuddle opponents, and possessed a knowledge of vulnerable nerve centers, which he put to good use in hand-to-hand combat. Om mani padme hum! The Green Lama knows! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James C. Lewis. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/060423/bk_acx0_060423_sample.mp3.
