    Risotto with Nettles: A Memoir with Food , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 520min
    Anna Del Conte brought Italian cooking to Britain at a time when the nearest most of us came to pasta was a Heinz spaghetti hoop. Sharply observant, evocative, full of tastes and talk of food, hers is a delicious, poignant memoir of an unusual life and the food she loves to cook, which launched a culinary revolution.She arrived in England in 1949 when much of Britain was a culinary wasteland, married an Englishman, and stayed on. Her memories of the time are vividly, hilarious preserved - from the joys of un-rationed horse meat to tomato soup at Lyons Corner House. While bringing up her children, she wrote books that inspired a new generation of cooks. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rula Lenska.

    Dad Is Fat , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 326min

Dad is Fat is sharply observed, explosively funny, and a cry for help from a man who has realized he and his wife are outnumbered in their own home. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Imagine you can modify your genes and get a better person instantly? What would you do to have access to this technology? Emma is poor and dreams of a better life; a life with gene modification and endless possibilities. The sound of cheap sneakers against wet concrete bounced sharply off the walls of the alleyway. "Halt! Freeze! Stop running dammit!" A heavier set man in uniform hollered into the alley between heavy breaths. "It's too late sucka!" Emma thought as she rounded the next corner. Another left then right then left again, and Emma would be home free. As she turned this particular corner, the wall almost seemed to jump out and grab hold of both arms. ungekürzt.

    Thinkers of the East , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 252min
    Thinkers of the East is a collection of anecdotes and "parables in action" illustrating the eminently practical and lucid approach of Eastern Dervish teachers. Distilled from the teachings of more than 100 sages in three continents, this material stresses the experimental rather than the theoretical - and it is that characteristic of Sufi study which provides its impact and vitality. The emphasis of Thinkers of the East contrasts sharply with the Western concept of the East as a place of theory without practice, or thought without action. The book's author, Idries Shah, says, "Without direct experience of such teaching, or at least a direct recording of it, I cannot see how Eastern thought can ever be understood." ungekürzt.

    Mansfield Park , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 866min
    From its sharply satiric opening sentence, Mansfield Park deals with money and marriage, and how strongly they affect each other. Shy, fragile Fanny Price is the consummate "poor relation". Sent to live with her wealthy uncle Thomas, she clashes with his spoiled, selfish daughters and falls in love with his son. Their lives are further complicated by the arrival of a pair of witty, sophisticated Londoners, whose flair for flirtation collides with the quiet, conservative country ways of Mansfield Park. Written several years after the early manuscripts that eventually became Sense and Sensibility and Pride and Prejudice, Mansfield Park retains Jane Austen's familiar compassion and humor but offers a far more complex exploration of moral choices and their emotional consequences. ungekürzt.
