The Innocence of Father Brown , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 538min
First published in 1911, The Innocence of Father Brown contains stories involving one of the greatest characters in the history of detective fiction: Father Brown. He is a Roman Catholic priest who has an uncanny insight into human evil. Rather than the large serial villains in, for example, Sherlock Holmes stories, the mysteries Father Brown solved were more local murders by small-town crooks, narrowing the suspect list down to those in the area of the crime. The cozy mystery style that The Innocence of Father Brown conveys sparked a revolution at the time, bringing it to the forefront of the detective fiction genre. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Always Outnumbered, Always Outgunned, Hörbuch, Digital, 373min
Three decades ago, the young Socrates Fortlow, in a burst of drunken rage, murdered a man and a woman. Free again, after 27 years of hard time, Fortlow is living in an abandoned building, scavenging bottles and delivering groceries to barely eke out a living. In each of the stories that comprise this richly brooding novel, Socrates, like his namesake, questions the morality of the world beset with crime, poverty, and racism that surrounds him. His unforgettable presence and his perceptions cast a glow of somber lyricism upon an often harsh world. This is the debut of Walter Mosley's most compelling new character since the introduction of detective Easy Rawlins. Language: English. Narrator: Paul Winfield.

Brideshead Revisited , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 691min
The wellsprings of desire and the impediments to love come brilliantly into focus in Evelyn Waugh's masterpiece - a novel that immerses us in the glittering and seductive world of English aristocracy in the waning days of the empire. Through the story of Charles Ryder's entanglement with the Flytes, a great Catholic family, Evelyn Waugh charts the passing of the privileged world he knew in his own youth and vividly recalls the sensuous pleasures denied him by wartime austerities. At once romantic, sensuous, comic, and somber, Brideshead Revisited transcends Waugh's early satiric explorations and reveals him to be an elegiac, lyrical novelist of the utmost feeling and lucidity. ungekürzt.

Lückenpresse: Das Ende des Journalismus, wie wir ihn kannten, Hörbuch, Digital, 383min
Ist die Kritik an die etablierten Medien berechtigt oder Paranoia á la "Lügenpresse"? Die etablierten Medien stecken in einer massiven Glaubwürdigkeitskrise. Teile des Publikums proben den Aufstand, öffentliche und veröffentlichte Meinung driften auseinander. Nicht nur hierzulande, auch in vielen Ländern geraten die angeblichen Leitmedien unter Beschuss. Stein des Anstoßes sind die Inhalte - Stichwort "Lügenpresse".Doch sind Lügen wirklich das Problem? Ulrich Teusch stellt zwei andere, weit gravierendere Faktoren ins Zentrum seiner Analyse: die Unterdrückung wesentlicher Informationen und das Messen mit zweierlei Maß. Beide Defizite sind in unserem Mediensystem strukturell verankert. Wenn sich daran nichts ändert, wird sich das Siechtum der Mainstreammedien fortsetzen. Und der Journalismus, wie wir ihn kannten, wird bald der Vergangenheit angehören. deutsch. Andreas Denk. https://samples.audible.de/bk/xaod/001040/bk_xaod_001040_sample.mp3.- Shop: Audible

Fiktion und Wahrheit: Karneval der Kunst 4, Hörbuch, Digital, 65min
Die Karneval der Kunst-Reihe ist ein experimentelles Produktionskonzept, bei welchem der "Interviewer Igor", ein Möchtegern-Moderator und liebenswürdiges Großmaul mit Herz, den zurückhaltenden und publikumsscheuen Universal-Künstler "Friedrich Frieden" in ein spontanes Gespräch zwingt, in dessen Verlauf auf humoristische und feinsinnige Art Themen aus dem aktuellen Zeitgeschehen, Philosophie und Kunst aufgegriffen werden, aufgepeppt mit musikalischen Muntermachern zwischendurch. Da weder Igor noch Friedrich wissen wie das Gespräch verläuft, sind spontane Überraschungen garantiert, die den Zuhörer inspirieren, unterhalten, über mal mehr, mal weniger wichtige Dinge "informieren" und amüsieren, zum Lachen und Grübeln einladen.Das intuitive inhaltliche Design entwickelt dabei seinen ganz eigenen Charme und lässt zu keinem Zeitpunkt erkennen, in welche Richtung sich das teils groteske, teils tiefsinnige Gespräch entwickeln könnte.Episode 4: Fiktion und Wahrheit. deutsch.

Soldier In Paradise, Hörbuch, Digital, 381min
John Mort’s compelling first novel embodies both the Vietnam combat experience and the sad aftermath for those who underwent it. Alternating between “stateside” chapters after the war and the Vietnam chapters dramatizing it, the novel creates a tension back and forth in time as well as geography. We participate in the trauma of combat in crisp and authentic detail, and we witness the effect of that experience on “Irish” Donnelly, a bookish, reluctant soldier, and his fellow infantrymen in the jungles and mountains of Vietnam. Transcending any “political” focus, Soldier in Paradise dramatically renders the alienation of Vietnam veterans, ordinary men who’ve had an extra burden to bear because of the protracted, brutish character of an unpopular war that never came to a satisfactory end.
