    Right Turns: Unconventional Lessons From a Controversial Life , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 999min
    Michael Medved is an orthodox Jew whose popular radio show is a favorite with evangelical Christians. As a nationally syndicated movie reviewer he made headlines with a controversial book titled Hollywood vs. America. He is a fervent and committed conservative who once worked 18-hour days in Bobby Kennedy's presidential campaign. And he counts among his friends both Rush Limbaugh and Hillary Clinton. He is a unique man, with a unique story to tell. In Right Turns, Medved recounts his incredible journey from secularism to religion, from adventurous single man to devoted and doting husband and father, from gloomy critic of "our sick society" to optimistic and impassioned promoter of American patriotism. With conviction but without vitriol, he relates his sometimes painful but ultimately illuminating process of maturation. Right Turns is a candid, often funny, thoroughly captivating memoir that says a lot about the interplay of the personal and the political. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Robertson Dean.

    Four men in a rowboat make an historic attempt on the Northwest Passage to focus global attention on an environmental catastrophe.

(Evan Solomon) In this gripping first-hand account, four seasoned adventurers navigate a sophisticated, high-tech rowboat across the Northwest Passage. One of the "last firsts" remaining in the adventure world, this journey is only possible because of the dramatic impacts of global warming in the high Arctic, which provide an ironic opportunity to draw attention to the growing urgency of climate change. Along the way, the team repeatedly face life-threatening danger from storms unparalleled in their ferocity and unpredictability and bears witness to unprecedented changes in the Arctic habitat and inhabitants, while weathering gale-force vitriol from climate change deniers who have taken to social media to attack them and undermine their efforts. ungekürzt.

    Incel : Walker & Arruda, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 819min
    Detective Damian Arruda thought his partner was just too distraught to accept his wife’s murder as a random act of violence. Then the devastated widower got too close to the truth, and now Damian is grieving his best friend. As his conscience threatens to eat him alive, he’ll stop at nothing to find the killer.Special Agent Melissa Walker’s partner met a violent end as well, and his death is almost certainly connected. When she joins forces with Damian, the investigation takes them into the vile underbelly of the Internet: The incel community and its toxic forums full of misogynists who consider themselves “involuntarily celibate” and feed off each other’s vitriol and hatred.As the pieces come together, there’s no denying the three deaths and the poisonous, cultlike community are part of a wave of murders, grisly assaults, and bombings.

    The Autobiography of Mark Twain , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1218min
    Mark Twain’s daughter Susy wrote: “Papa…doesn’t like to go to church at all, why I never understood, until just now, he told us the other day that he couldn’t bear to hear any one talk but himself, but that he could listen to himself talk for hours without getting tired, of course he said this in joke, but I’ve no dought [sic] it was founded on truth." Here is one of the great autobiographies of the English language - exuberant, wonderfully contemporary in spirit, by a man twice as large as life who—he said so himself—had no trouble remembering everything that had ever happened to him and a lot of things besides. Nothing ever happened to Mark Twain in a small way. His adventures were invariably fraught with drama. Success and failure for him were equally spectacular. And so he roared down the years, feuding with publishers, being a sucker for inventors, always learning wisdom at the point of ruin, and always relishing the absurd spectacle of humankind, which he regarded with a blend of vitriol and affection. ungekürzt.

    War, Unfinished: A Villain Romance Saga (Arte De La Guerra, #1) (eBook, ePUB)
    He was a good man…once upon a time. Betrayed by his own brother and sold into human slavery, Rafaelo Guerra learned the hard way that good was overrated. Emotions that weighed him down disappeared. Beliefs that stood in his way turned to dust. Hands that held a pen were now hands that killed. There was only one purpose left-revenge. But the road to hell is paved with seductive temptations. And his was a stunning woman from his past who'd destroyed what little was left of his heart. In the city of sin…he was the biggest sinner. Michele Guerra was rotten to the core. The target of everyone's vitriol, he learned from a young age to stop feeling. Instead of proving people wrong, he proved them right. Emotions were for the weak. Beliefs were made to be challenged. And the blood on his hands became the blood he needed to survive. He was the most hated man alive-a praise he didn't take lightly. And by the time he made it to his grave, he wanted everyone to share that sentiment. Including her-his maddening addiction-and a pawn in his perfect plan. The only one for whom he'd been a hero, not a villain. Until… The war was on. Two brothers. Two epic love stories. One war.

    The Once and Future Liberal: After Identity Politics , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 169min
    From one of the most internationally admired political thinkers, a controversial polemic on the failures of identity politics and what comes next for the left - in America and beyond.Following the shocking results of the US election of 2016, public intellectuals across the globe offered theories and explanations, but few were met with such vitriol, panic, and debate as Mark Lilla’s. The Once and Future Liberal is a passionate plea to liberals to turn from the divisive politics of identity and develop a vision of the future that can persuade all citizens that they share a common destiny. Driven by a sincere desire to protect society’s most vulnerable, the left has unwittingly balkanized the electorate, encouraged self-absorption rather than solidarity, and invested its energies in social movements rather than party politics. Identity-focused individualism has insidiously conspired with amoral economic individualism to shape an electorate with little sense of a shared future and near-contempt for the idea of the common good. Now is the time to re-build a sense of common feeling and purpose, and a sense of duty to one another. A fiercely argued, important book, enlivened by acerbic wit and erudition, The Once and Future Liberal is essential listening for our times. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charles Constant.
