Vacationland: True Stories from Painful Beaches , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 323min
John Hodgman - New York Times best-selling author, semifamous personality, deranged millionaire, increasingly elderly husband, father, and human of Earth - has written a memoir about his cursed travels through two wildernesses: from the woods of his home in Massachusetts, birthplace of rage, to his exile on the coast of Maine, so-called Vacationland, home to the most painful beaches on Earth. Vacationland is also about Hodgman's wandering in the metaphoric wilderness of his 40s, those years when dudes especially must painfully stop pretending to be the children of bright potential they were and settle into the failing bodies of the wiser, weirder dads that they are. Other subjects covered include the horror of freshwater clams, the evolutionary purpose of the mustache, which animals to keep as pets and which to kill with traps and poison, and advice on how to react when the people of coastal Maine try to sacrifice you to their strange god. After three best-selling books of fake facts, Hodgman is finally ready to tell the truth - in the same outlandish, audacious, and inimitable style that has won him fans in every medium he has worked: books, stage, social media, television, and movies. ungekürzt.

Will Mother Nature give a devastating blow that will end their love before it starts? Come on down to Dodge City where the bars outnumber the other businesses, and where you can hang out with the local folks like the massive blacksmith Henry Olson, mustache deputy Bat Masterson, and of course the lovely petite five-foot and emotionally scarred Winter Lindstrom. ungekürzt.

Dim Sum Asylum , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 584min
Welcome to Dim Sum Asylum: a San Francisco where it's a ho-hum kind of case when a cop has to chase down an enchanted two-foot-tall shrine god statue with an impressive Fu Manchu mustache that's running around Chinatown trolling sex magic and chaos in its wake. Senior Inspector Roku MacCormick of the Chinatown Arcane Crimes Division faces a pile of challenges far beyond his human-faerie heritage - snarling dragons guarding C-Town's multiple gates and exploding noodle factories. After a case goes sideways, Roku is saddled with Trent Leonard, a new partner he can't trust, to add to the crime syndicate family he doesn't want and a spell-casting serial killer he desperately needs to find. While Roku would rather stay home with Bob the Cat and whiskey himself to sleep, he puts on his badge and gun every day, determined to serve and protect the city he loves. When Chinatown's dark mystical underworld makes his life hell and the case turns deadly, Trent guards Roku's back and, if Trent can be believed, his heart...even if from what Roku can see, Trent is as dangerous as the monsters and criminals they're sworn to bring down. ungekürzt.

Hard Fast Ride , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 135min
You know you want it. In the dusty wastelands of postmodern Kansas sits a motel that serves as a cheap place to bring cheap dates for cheap tricks, but that all changes when a shot up hot rod crashes into the parking lot. There's a dead man in the passenger seat, a treasure map on the dashboard, and a trunk full of guns. Before the driver gives up the ghost he tells of a daring heist and bags of cash. Two bi-curious prostitutes, Charity (blonde bombshell) and Desire (gothic bad girl), sniff out that there's gold to score and hit the road first after finishing up with a client of peculiar tastes. Hot on their high heels are two trailer trash sisters, Tonya (ex-stripper) and Tammy (perpetual teenager), who see the mystical money as a ticket out of this dustbowl. These ladies will have to face off and race off against bully-boy enforcers, high speed thugs, vengeful rednecks, and a peyote-munching bounty hunter who loves his rocket launcher almost as much as his fine mustache. Whether you strap on or strap in, it's going to get wet and wild in this snarky tall tale of sexy violence on the open road. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Dorinda Ravish.

Unlike many artists of his age, Dalí was a glamorous celebrity, and his pointy mustache has remained a symbol of art and quirkiness to this day. He was as ridiculous as his paintings, but he was also a human being.In Salvador Dalí: A Captivating Guide to the Life of a Famous Spanish Painter Who Is Known for His Surrealist Paintings and Flamboyant Personality, you will discover chapters, such as:Prehistory to PicassoGrowing WingsRebellionRisen StarFame and EccentricityThe Bathtub and the WindowFlightGoing HomeFarewell to the MuseThe Marquis’ Last DrawingThe Immortal MustacheAnd much, much more!So, if you want to learn more about Salvador Dalí, scroll up and click the "buy now" button! ungekürzt.

Three Best French Short Stories by Guy de Maupassant, Honoré de Balzac, Gustave Flaubert, Hörbuch, Digital, 243min
Enjoy the short stories of three of the greatest writers of French literature, for the first time assembled together in audiobook and narrated in a lively way. Guy de Maupassant was an absolute master of the short story genre, delighting in clever plotting, concise style, and efficient storytelling, which he used to produce stunning pieces in a very condensed format. He produced more than 300 short stories; we selected for you nine of the most bizarre, influent, humorous or plain shocking. They are in order: "The Englishman of Etretat", "The Mustache", "A Mother of Monsters", "A Portrait", "A Widow", "Madame Baptiste", "The Drunkard", "Magnetism", "An Uncomfortable Bed". By Honoré de Balzac, "The Unknown Masterpiece" is a short text that was received as a revolution in the world of art, for its work about artistic creation: what does completion or failure mean, and how is it that technique does not guarantee either. Flaubert was known for his scrupulous devotion to his style, sometimes working for a whole week to achieve a single page. "A Simple Soul" is a short text containing a lifetime of human emotions. It has been said that no other author has imparted so much beauty and integrity to so modest an existence. This short story is utterly poignant and will change your view of selflessness.
