Daniel Deronda: Penguin English Library, Hörbuch, Digital, 335min
Penguin Classics presents George Eliot’s Daniel Deronda, adapted for audio and available as a digital download as part of the Penguin English Library series. Read by the actress Eleanor Bron. "What can I do.... I must get up in the morning and do what everyone else does. It is all like a dance set beforehand. I seem to see all that can be - and I am tired and sick of it. And the world is all confusion to me."

As their lives become intertwined, they are also transformed by suffering, misfortune, revelations and Daniel’s fascination with the Jewish singer Mirah. Daniel Deronda shocked Victorian readers with its portrayal of the Jewish experience in British society, and remains a moving and epic portrayal of human passions.

September 1944: in the wake of the successful Anvil landings, the Allies plan airborne landings in the Orléans Gap. To soften the enemy beforehand, they decide to drop a squadron of men and jeeps in Central France, to hit enemy positions and distract attention from the landings taking place elsewhere. Operation Kipling begins when 46 jeeps and 107 well-armed SAS men from C Squadron are parachuted in with orders to establish a base and contact the Maquis - Frenchmen living in makeshift forest camps, conducting sabotage missions behind enemy lines. Even as they are setting up camp, the airborne landings are cancelled and the SAS ordered to conduct aggressive patrolling. Over the coming weeks, C Squadron must carry out a succession of high-risk night raids against the Germans, racing into occupied towns in jeeps, firing on the move and racing out again to continually harass the enemy and inflict heavy casualties.

Wise: Gaining, Using, and Retaining Wisdom for Lifelong Success , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 156min
A common goal in education, training, and professional development is to gain and retain relevant knowledge. This specific goal has the positive attributes of being easy to articulate and easy to measure (testing shows that the student now knows the material whereas they, likely, didn’t beforehand), and in many cases of immediate utility to the student (who can now more effectively solve meaningful and in many cases job-related problems they couldn’t solve before).However, knowledge alone has two major disadvantages. One, knowledge’s utility over time can degrade (how many need to know how to repair the carburetor on a 1953 Ford F250?). Two, knowledge alone isn’t enough to enable the knowledgeable person to solve novel problems where applicable knowledge doesn’t yet exist.What’s beyond knowledge, preferably with a longer applicable useful lifespan and utility, in helping address novel problems? The answer, the author argues, is “wisdom”. This book discusses the topic of wisdom, its relationship to knowledge, its relative utility in problem-solving, and how a person can gain, retain, and make personal and long-term career and personal-life use of gained wisdom. ungekürzt.
