    Have you ever wondered why life seems so complicated, so exhausting, so fattening, and yet so pointless and idiotic? It's all part of the Potlatch. To Alice Coggins, the 24-year-old daughter of a South Philadelphia scam artist, everything looks like a racket: endless serf-like internships, student loans that can never be repaid, and high-minded charities run by swindlers for the benefit of rich donors. Things only get worse when she meets Andrew Ogleby, a scion of blue-bloods who is engaged to a bulimic pet-food heiress he can't bring himself to marry. As their Cinderella romance unfolds, Alice and Andrew must battle their families, the mob, and most of all the ubiquitous "Potlatch": a vast conspiracy of conspicuous waste directed by the powers that be to keep the populace - and especially the young people - from even thinking about doing anything useful.  ungekürzt.

Everyone knows he is shocking in his opinions, arrogant in his manner, and completely without respect for the common decencies of civilized society. Margaret absolutely will not marry him - no matter what her parents say. Beautiful and shy, Margaret was everything Sir Justin detested in a woman - timid, sheltered, and obedient to a fault. It's not until she runs away from him that he finds he must give chase. Margaret is discovering she can be bold and rebellious - intrepid enough to do what she must and more exciting than Justin ever imagined possible. She's the last woman he would have expected to lead them both into uncharted territory.... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gemma Dawson.

    Immediately after two hijacked jets struck the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, Dennis Smith volunteered in the rescue effort. Having spent his career as both a respected writer and a member of one of the city's busiest firehouses, Smith became determined to use his unique background to tell the story of the disaster and its aftermath with the empathy and understanding that only an insider could bring to it. Smith has collected astonishing first-person testimony from rescuers who were present as the towers were attacked, evacuated, and then fell. He also recounts his own experiences at the devastation of Ground Zero over the next few weeks: attending to the physically and psychologically wounded, helping organize fund-raising, and attending some of the almost inconceivable number of funerals of firefighters, police officers, and emergency rescue workers. Report from Ground Zero is the most detailed and immediate record of this unforgettable event, with the unique perspective of a writer who has been praised as "the poet laureate of firefighters".

    Wenn du aufwachst aus einem Traum und alle Masken fallen - hast du den Mut, den anderen zu erkennen für das, was er wirklich ist? Das Leben läuft nicht rund für Clara Hummel. Nicht nur, dass sie von ihrem Ex-Freund durch eine neue Flamme ersetzt wurde, auch ihr Job hängt am seidenen Faden. Nur der Erfolg, den venezianischen Lingerie-Hersteller La Giarrettiera für ihren Arbeitgeber zu gewinnen, kann sie noch retten. Dafür reist sie mitten in der Karnevals-Zeit nach Venedig. Doch Niccolo Contarini denkt gar nicht daran, es ihr leicht zu machen und seine Dessous über Claras Firma zu verkaufen. Frustriert über ihren drohenden Untergang, stürzt sie sich ins venezianische Nachtleben - und in die heiße Affäre mit einem maskierten Cavaliere. Was er ihr nicht zeigt, ist sein Gesicht, doch was er ihr zeigt, ist fremd, exotisch und verboten - aber auch einfach zu gut, um es sich entgehen zu lassen. Wir weisen dich darauf hin, dass dieser Titel nicht für dich geeignet ist, wenn du unter 18 Jahre alt bist. deutsch.

    An avid academic and aspiring scientist, Edward Banks, Lord Watson is pleased to find that he won't have to bother with the nonsense involved in courting a young lady. Young and naive, it doesn't take much for her social-climbing father to convince Regina the gentleman she's to marry has requested her hand out of love, but devastates her when she learns the truth. Now, it's up to a gentleman who's more comfortable in a conservatory than a drawing room to prove to Regina that she's more than just the proverbial sacrificial lamb that helped gain her family their foot in Society's door and that he - if no other gentleman - is trustworthy. But he just might be the one doing the learning as he'll be forced to acknowledge that sometimes the most combustible elements aren't the ones you control, but the ones you don't. ungekürzt.
