The Mayor of Casterbridge , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 815min
The Mayor of Casterbridge by Thomas Hardy is a tragic novel set in the fictional town of Casterbridge. Michael Henchard, a young hay trusser, overindulges in rum-laced furmity and quarrels with his wife, Susan. Spurred by alcohol, he decides to auction off his wife and baby daughter, Elizabeth-Jane, to a sailor, Mr. Newson, for five guineas. Once sober the next day, he is too late to recover his family, particularly since his reluctance to reveal his own bad conduct keeps him from conducting an effective search. When he realizes that his wife and daughter are gone, probably for good, he swears not to touch liquor again for as many years as he has lived so far (21). Nineteen years later, Henchard, now a successful grain merchant, is the eponymous Mayor of Casterbridge, known for his staunch sobriety. He is well respected for his financial acumen and his work ethic, but he is not well liked. Impulsive, selfish behavior and a violent temper are still part of his character, as are dishonesty and secretive activity. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peta Johnson.

Super Normal
The designers Jasper Morrison and Naoto Fukasawa have compiled 204 everyday objects in search of "super normal design": alongside examples of anonymous design like the Swiss Rex vegetable peeler or a simple plastic bag, there are design classics like Marcel Breuer's tubular steel side table, Dieter Ram's 606 shelving system, or Joe Colombo's Optic alarm clock of 1970. With products by Newson, Grcic, the Azumis, and the Bouroullec brothers, it also represents the generation to which Morrison and Fukasawa belong. The phenomenon of the super normal is located, as it were, beyond space and time; the past and present of product design both point to a future that has long since begun. The super normal is already lying exposed before us; it exists in the here and now; it is real and available: we need only open our eyes; Fukasawa and Morrison make it visible for us.- Shop: buecher

In a fit of drunken bitterness, a young hay trusser, Michael Henchard, sells his wife, Susan, to Mr. Newson, a sailor, at a country fair. The transaction also includes their daughter, Elizabeth Jane. When sober the next day, he regrets his action but looks for them in vain and is eventually told they may have emigrated. Eighteen years later Henchard is the Mayor of Casterbridge, and the people of the town believe him to be a widower. In recent times he has had an affair with a young woman in Jersey, Lucetta, while travelling there on business. She inherits a fortune and comes to Casterbridge to persuade Henchard to make 'an honest woman' of her. However, Susan, having lost her husband at sea, returns with the now grown Elizabeth Jane. The Mayor, wishing to atone for his crime of years before, remarries her. To complicate matters further, a young ambitious Scot, Donald Farfrae, has settled in the town at Henchard's instigation. Despite their rapidly worsening business relationship, Donald initially casts a glad eye at Elizabeth Jane but then falls in love with Lucetta.

Girl With Dove: A Life Built By Books , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 466min
This audiobook includes an exclusive interview between the author, Sally Bayley, and a mentee of Sally’s, Georgie Newson, who first met when they read Jane Eyre together. They talk about the stories that have been woven into the book, the reflective nature of literature, the influence of Jane Eyre on their lives and much more. Sally grew up in a dilapidated house by the sea where men were forbidden, her childhood world filled with mystery and intrigue. Hippies trailed through the kitchen looking for God - their leader was Aunt Di, who ruled the house with charismatic force. When Sally’s baby brother vanished from his pram, she became suspicious of the activities going on around her. What happened to Baby David and the woman called Poor Sue? And where did all the people singing and wailing prayers in the front room suddenly go? Disappearing into a world of books and reading, Sally adopts the tried and tested methods of Miss Marple. Taking books for hints and clues, she turns herself into a reading detective. Her discovery of Jane Eyre marks the beginning of a vivid journey through Victorian literature, where she also finds the kind, eccentric figure of Charles Dickens’ Betsey Trotwood. These characters soon become her heroines, acting as a part of an alternative family, offering humour and guidance during many difficult moments in Sally’s life. Combining the voices of literary characters with those of her real-life counterparts, Girl with Dove reads as a magical series of strange encounters, climaxing with a comic performance of Shakespeare in the children’s home where Sally is eventually sent. Weaving literary classics with a young girl’s coming of age story, this is a book that testifies to the transformative power of reading and the literary imagination. Mixing fairy tale, literary classics, nursery rhymes and folklore, it is the story of a child’s adventure in wonderland and search for truth in an adult w ungekürzt. Language: English.

Lady Tamina Braithwaite is excited and happy to be secretly engaged to the handsome politician Edmund Newson. However, she is devastated when she discovers he is already betrothed to another girl. Determined to flee the country to heal her broken heart, she takes a job with Ivan, the Earl of Daventry, who is about to travel abroad and needs a secretary to help him with a book he is writing. Pretending to be plain Miss Waites, Tamina is unaware that the Earl has also recently been betrayed by a close friend. The Earl and Tamina sail on the liner, the Blue Diamond, towards the beautiful island of Madeira. It is a fateful voyage with the discovery of a stowaway as the Earl and Tamina become increasingly attached to each other. How Tamina's deception is uncovered and how her dreams eventually come true is all told in this dramatic romance by Barbara Cartland. Barbara Cartland was the world's most prolific novelist who wrote an amazing 723 books in her lifetime, of which no less than 644 were romantic novels with worldwide sales of over 1 billion copies and her books were translated into 36 different languages. As well as romantic novels, she wrote historical biographies, 6 autobiographies, theatrical plays and books of advice on life, love, vitamins and cookery. She wrote her first book at the age of 21 and it was called Jigsaw. It became an immediate bestseller and sold 100,000 copies in hardback in England and all over Europe in translation. Between the ages of 77 and 97, she increased her output and wrote an incredible 400 romances as the demand for her romances was so strong all over the world. She wrote her last book at the age of 97 and it was entitled perhaps prophetically "The Way to Heaven". Her books have always been immensely popular in the United States where in 1976 her current books were at numbers 1 & 2 in the B. Dalton bestsellers list, a feat never achieved before or since by any author. Barbara Car Language: English. Narrator: Anthony Wren.

Cinelli Harry's Flaschenhalter von Mike Giant (schwarz / gold)
Cinelli Harry's Flaschenhalter von Mike Giant (schwarz / gold) Menschen, die einen Sinn im Leben haben, sind glücklich: Unser Ziel ist es, das Leben von Fahrradfahrern zu verbessern. Obwohl das Fahrrad bereits erfunden ist, sind wir immer noch optimistisch. Unsere Geschichte sagt uns, dass nichts unmöglich ist; alles, was wir tun müssen, ist, über die Gegenwart hinauszuschauen. So muss aus einem Lenker ein Lenker werden, der noch nicht existiert hat, Ein Lenkerband muss sich in ein Lenkerband verwandeln, das es noch nicht gab, Ein Fahrrad muss sich in ein Fahrrad verwandeln, das es noch nicht gab. Wir wenden Designprinzipien auf unsere Produkte, aber auch auf unser Unternehmen an. Design ist nicht nur Aussehen. Design bedeutet Form, erstes Projekt, Entwurf, Technologie, Technik, Materialien, Innovation, Kreativität, Funktion, Qualität, Einzigartigkeit, Know-how, Emotion. Wir wollen, dass jedes Produkt eine Idee hat, denn wenn es eine Kopie ist, kann es nicht Cinelli sein. Der Weg zur Mission ist jedoch lang und nicht einfach. Wir müssen jedes Detail kennenlernen, und das nicht nur, weil wir es gewohnt sind, sie zu fahren. Wir lieben sie und schätzen ihre Geschichte. Unser Kopf ist in der Zukunft, aber unsere Füße stehen seit 1943, als Cino Cinelli das Rennen Mailand-Sanremo gewann, auf festem Boden. Bei Cinelli bleiben wir mit unserer Zeit Schritt, wir wissen, wer Duchamp und Kurt Cobain sind. Wir sind neugierig: auf Kunst, Musik, Design, andere Sportarten. Wir glauben nicht, dass Berghaus eine neue Art von Medizin ist, und wir denken nicht, dass Marc Newson oder Philippe Starck zwei Fußballspieler sind. Unsere Wurzeln liegen in Mailand: und das ist in vielerlei Hinsicht ein Vorteil. Die Aspekte zu erfassen, die diese Stadt zu einem Zentrum der internationalen Kultur gemacht haben, ist von grundlegender Bedeutung und hilft uns, unser Ziel zu erreichen. Wir nutzen alles, um unser Ziel zu erreichen: neue Technologien, anspruchsvolle Materialien, erfahrene Techniker, sehr strenge Tests, modernste Werkzeuge, aber auch Kunstausstellungen und Designwettbewerbe. Da sich Fahrräder ständig weiterentwickeln, sind sie ein unendliches Projekt. Nur neue Anregungen und neue Ideen können uns helfen, das Produkt zu schaffen, das eine Synthese aus (unseren) Träumen und Visionen ist.- Shop: fahrrad24
