    Minding the Light , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 609min
    In 19th-century Nantucket, a Quaker woman must choose between the man everyone expects her to marry - or his seafaring cousin. Six long years ago, Captain Reynolds Macy sailed away from his bride, looking forward to the day when he would return to Nantucket Island with a ship's hold full of whale oil. But when that momentous day finally arrives, Ren soon discovers that everything has changed in his absence. Everything. "Is nothing on this island as it appears to be?" he whispers in despair. Unlike most islanders, bold and spirited Daphne Coffin doesn't defer to Ren as an authoritative whalemaster, but sees through his aloofness to the aching heart beneath. She encourages him to return to his Quaker roots and "mind the Light", finding solace in God and community. As Ren becomes the man she believes him to be - honorable, wise, faithful - she finds herself falling in love with him. But how can she, when her heart is spoken for? Tristram Macy is Ren's business partner, cousin, and best friend - and Daphne's fiance. Love always comes at a cost, but when is the price too high? Suzanne Woods Fisher welcomes readers back to the Quaker community on Nantucket Island for this riveting love story, full of unexpected moments. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Undoing Project: A Friendship That Changed Our Minds , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 618min
    Best-selling author Michael Lewis examines how a Nobel Prize-winning theory of the mind altered our perception of reality. Forty years ago Israeli psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky wrote a series of breathtakingly original studies undoing our assumptions about the decision-making process. Their papers showed the ways in which the human mind erred systematically when forced to make judgments about uncertain situations. Their work created the field of behavioral economics, revolutionized Big Data studies, advanced evidence-based medicine, led to a new approach to government regulation, and made much of Michael Lewis' own work possible. Kahneman and Tversky are more responsible than anybody for the powerful trend to mistrust human intuition and defer to algorithms. The Undoing Project is about the fascinating collaboration between two men who have the dimensions of great literary figures. They became heroes in the university and on the battlefield - both had important careers in the Israeli military - and their research was deeply linked to their extraordinary life experiences. In the process they may well have changed for good mankind's view of its own mind.

    The Old Curiosity Shop, Hörbuch, Digital, 351min
    We defer to AudioFile for a spot-on description of this award-winning audio edition of The Old Curiosity Shop. "This 1841 exercise in pathos and villainy defines 'Dickensian' in all its fascinatingly repulsive excess, containing as it does one of the most celebrated scenes in all Victorian fiction - the death of Little Nell. The abridgment heard here excises many of the author's tedious redundancies (he was paid by the word) while retaining most of what makes Dickens Dickens. Scofield, one of the giants of the British stage, turns the redaction into a lesson in actor's tact. He has decided to meet the melodrama head on but with the utmost control. He gives us the lush narrative intimately, as if reading to us at our elbow, and engraves the characters with all the vividness of an aural Daumier or Hogarth. He pulls out the stops on heaviness and gloom without actually becoming bogged down by them, his warmth and love of the material keeping him buoyant. In addition to his histrionic acumen and artistry, he possesses one of the most distinctive and exciting voices of the English-speaking world. It would be a pleasure to hear him read the London phone book. Warning: Sensitive listeners should purchase a box of Kleenex to keep handy before playing this recording." Y. R.

    Princess Slave , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 282min, (USK 18)
    Princess Avaegna of Tonyeh wasn't supposed to be married off to the Kohnzi warrior, Prince Stohsz. That was supposed to be her older sister's fate. She hadn't been raised as the usual Tonyeh woman, content to keep a house, raise children, and defer to her man. Indulged by her father and five older brothers, they taught her to fight, ride, and use a crossbow with deadly accuracy. But when her sister dies unexpectedly, she is required to step into her sister's tiny, pristine shoes. In the end, it is much worse for her than she could ever imagine, as she is stripped of everything she ever knew and brought to live with a man who seems to know her better than she knows herself - especially when it comes to handling her in - and out - of their shared bedroom. He makes discoveries about her deepest self and exposes them to her, forcing her to confront her darkest desires. After he kept her cloistered in his room for long, dark months, she is suddenly brought into the spotlight and required to accompany him and his warriors on a raid of a neighboring town - despite the other men's misgivings about having a female along. When push comes to shove, though, she is more than willing to fight for herself, and ends up getting much more than she bargained for. Publisher's disclaimer: Please be advised this book contains graphic sexual scenes and harsh, non-consensual discipline. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lyric.

    Discover how to obtain tax-deferred income and avoid taxes on capital gains.Real estate investments are a key source of wealth creation and a preferred source of income generation for millions of investors. Author Paul Getty has worked with thousands of real estate investors who have taken advantage of special tax benefits available to real estate investors that allow them to defer taxes and retain more funds for future investments. This audiobook provides investors with his experience and insights in the following areas:How the 1031 Exchange can turbocharge both monthly income and long-term wealth creationHow to obtain stable tax-sheltered income without management hasslesWhy the Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) has emerged as one of the fastest growing real estate investment sectorsHow to find, evaluate, and compare DSTsTips on selecting investment professionals Since being approved by the IRS in 2004, the DST has steadily grown in popularity. In contrast to stocks and bonds, income from DSTs can be offset with depreciation and expense write-offs that are unique to real estate investments, thereby allowing investors to realize higher after-tax income.Furthermore, any realized gains upon sale can be reinvested tax-free into new like-kind investments via a 1031 Exchange rather than be lost forever to federal and state taxes. Savvy investors have discovered that by avoiding taxes they can more rapidly build their net worth. Finally, upon the death of the investor, real estate gains realized over a lifetime of 1031 Exchanges can be transferred to their heirs with little to no tax consequences! ungekürzt.

    Visegrad (eBook, ePUB)
    Visegrad is a satirical comedy set in a budding Eastern European autocracy. Its setting, the titular Visegrad, is an expatriate Mecca, a post-Soviet capital where the national sport is appearing to work as hard as possible while doing nothing at all. It is the story of Rye, an American millennial who becomes infatuated with a young couple in debt to a local bookie who has developed a secret method of purchasing outstanding student loans from the United States. Things get complicated when Rye agrees to work off the debt and signs on a battery of clients, including Colin Having, who believes that the world's dogs are in a conspiracy against him; H. Defer, an academic wunderkind who is developing a universal theory based on the wetness of feet; and the SEC man, who has been sent to Visegrad to determine how Rye and his boss acquire individual debts. Soon, Rye learns he is being followed. Customers start to disappear and he discovers he is no longer free to leave the country. Now he must sabotage the lucrative business he has helped build, or else abandon his friends to the machinations of a shady cabal within the Visegrad government. A series of comic digressions that branch from the central, tragic digression of choosing to live in a foreign country, Visegrad presents world at once familiar and preposterous--a world that is even historically accurate in its an amalgamation of Prague, Budapest, Warsaw, Krakow, and Berlin, even though it is a place that does not exist and therefore has no history. It is about getting away with something--being young, being cruel, falling in love. Of particular interest to readers who have travelled extensively or lived abroad, it is a must for fans of Prague (Arthur Phillips); The Sellout (Paul Beatty); Necessary Errors (Caleb Crain); All That Man Is (David Szalay); and Temporary People (Deepak Unnikrishnan).
