    Any form of clutter, be it in your home or your life in general, is bad. While clutter in your home constitutes a home being messy, where things are just lying around in an untidy manner, clutter in your life signifies your feelings and approach toward life. A cluttered life would mean your body, mind, and spirit being uneasy with the way things are around you. In such cases, you should adopt a more balanced approach toward living your life. For you to be clutter free, you need to adopt a lifestyle that is similar to that philosophy. Many people ask themselves where they could start. Until you figure out the answer to that question, your life will remain cluttered. This audiobook consists of tips aimed at bettering your overall life and making it more clutter free. ungekürzt.

    Amber Haines is a woman haunted by God. Like Eve in the Garden, she craved the fruit that she thought would lead her to freedom. But the whispers of temptation led her instead down a devastating path toward isolation, dissatisfaction, and life-altering choices. In her most broken moment, Amber met God waiting for her in the fallout, freely offering her grace and life. This is a story of the God who makes himself known in broken places. In prose that is at once lyrical and utterly honest, a brave new voice takes listeners on a windswept journey down the path of brokenness to healing, satisfaction, and true intimacy with God. Amber calls listeners to dispense with the pretty bows we use to dress up our stories and instead trust God to take our untidy, unfinished lives and make them free, authentic, and whole. Anyone who struggles with doubt or holds secrets, anyone who feels marginalized or like she is missing something, will find in Amber a sister and an inviting voice back home, into the heart of God. ungekürzt.

    An unkempt man sits in a dingy and extremely untidy bedsit room. A half brick crashes through his window. Not at all surprised, the man resignedly attempts to clear up the broken glass, succeeding only in cutting his hand in the process. A knock at his door is unwelcome but persistent so he opens it to admit the bustling Mrs. G. who announces herself as the local cleaning lady. She saw the brick-throwing incident and wants to know if the man is injured. Over the course of the play Mrs. G. sets about clearing up the man’s flat and does her best to clear up his life, too. Tidying the flat is one thing but bringing her idea of order to the man’s situation and thinking proves far more difficult, despite her best efforts. In the end, for what she sees as the good of all concerned, she applies the final cleaning solution to the situation. After all, if you don’t deal with it effectively, dirt spreads. ungekürzt.

    Twelve-year-old Kit Haverard is the only daughter of an absent-minded, scholarly Quaker father. Along with three older brothers who are currently away at school, dreamy, untidy Kit has been raised by their young, energetic cousin Laura.Ever since the death of Professor Haverard’s wife, Laura has given herself to maintaining an ordered life for her uncle, conscientiously caring for his children, but also jealously “protecting” him from the day-to-day affairs of the household. Though Kit is a frustration to her orderly cousin, a stranger to her father, and a puzzle to herself, she finds comfort in the realm of make-believe - in books and in time shared with her close friends Pony and Helen.Her world begins to expand when, after an illness, she goes to stay with members of her mother’s family whom she has never met. To her own amazement, Kit discovers within herself a deep love for music and - as a person and as a singer - she begins to raise her voice. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Pearl Hewitt.

    The major new novel from the beloved prize-winning author -- a brilliantly perceptive, painfully true and funny journey deep into one family's foibles, from the 1950s right up to the changed world of today When the kids are grown and Mercy Garrett gradually moves herself out of the family home, everyone is determined not to notice. Over at her studio, she wants space and silence. She won't allow any family clutter. Not even their cat, Desmond. Yet it is a clutter of untidy moments that forms the Garretts' family life over the decades, whether that's a painstaking Easter lunch or giving a child a ride, a fateful train journey or an unexpected homecoming. And it all begins in 1959, with a family holiday to a cabin by a lake. It's the only one the Garretts will ever take, but its effects will ripple through the generations. 'Exquisitely crafted, tender, hilarious, devastatingly precise, I loved this powerful meditation on the small and often unvoiced moments that can make up a life' RACHEL JOYCE 'Such joyous immersion, I lost myself, and loved this superbly imperfect family' TESSA HADLEY 'A faultless novel, effortlessly profound. I read it in two sittings, totally immersed' VICTORIA HISLOP 'If Anne Tyler isn't the best writer in the world, who is?' BBC RADIO 4 WOMAN'S HOUR 4 WOMAN'S HOUR

    This is a selection of works by three famous Irishmen: Oscar Wilde, W. B. Yeats and Bram Stoker. It includes: the short story by Bram Stoker, "Dracula's Guest", which is thought to be the original opening chapter of his famous novel Dracula; Oscar Wilde's poem "Humanitad" and three versions of his "The Ballad of Reading Gaol" (with the original preface by his friend Robert Ross); and finally, an early collection of poetry called The Rose by W. B. Yeats, which includes his famous poem "The Lake Isle of Innisfree".There is a general introduction by the writer and actor Tim Dalgleish and other additional material. As the editor writes in the introduction:"One should think of this little collection as if one, that is you yourself, had just walked into a pub in Dublin: You hand over a few coppers to the landlord and stand sipping your pint of the dark, black stuff. In the corner you spy three eccentric looking characters deep in concentrated conversation. As you make your way over you realise they are telling stories. One is an odd looking fellow, with untidy white hair and pince-nez, he is sonorously declaiming, in a sing-song voice, a tale of mythic, even epic, proportions... this will be a night to remember." ungekürzt.

    Dear Reader,In my Brides Trilogy, three unconventional young women vow they will never marry - only to be overtaken by destiny. The Accidental Bride could only be the story of Phoebe, the "awkward" one. For four years, Cato, the Marquis of Granville, had been just another man - the uninteresting, somewhat intimidating husband of Phoebe's older sister. But then her sister died, and Phoebe seemed a reasonable substitute. Her forced engagement to him should have been quite a cold-blooded arrangement...except that one day Phoebe looked at Granville - really looked at him - and saw what she'd never seen before: he was darkly, breathtakingly attractive.Once she'd noticed, she couldn't seem to stop noticing, and suddenly, Phoebe was disastrously in love. It would be nothing short of torture to be married to Granville, knowing he didn't love her and never would. After all, Phoebe was not the kind of woman men fell in love with - Phoebe with her untidy hair, her rumpled clothes, and her fingers forever ink-stained from the poetry she wrote. When running away does not solve her problems, Phoebe decides to try something a little different - something that involves a little change in wardrobe, a daring new attitude, and a bit of brazen seduction. Granville is about to discover that his awkward Phoebe is woman enough even for him. Warmest wishes,Jane Feather ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jenny Sterlin.
