The Shadow of the Wind , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1053min
Hidden in the heart of the old city of Barcelona is the 'cemetery of lost books', a labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles that have long gone out of print. To this library, a man brings his 10-year-old son Daniel one cold morning in 1945. Daniel is allowed to choose one book from the shelves and pulls out 'La Sombra del Viento' by Julian Carax. But as he grows up, several people seem inordinately interested in his find. Then, one night, as he is wandering the old streets once more, Daniel is approached by a figure who reminds him of a character from La Sombra del Viento, a character who turns out to be the devil. This man is tracking down every last copy of Carax's work in order to burn them. What begins as a case of literary curiosity turns into a race to find out the truth behind the life and death of Julian Carax and to save those he left behind. A page-turning exploration of obsession in literature and love, and the places that obsession can lead. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Daniel Philpott.

American Heroin Addicts, Hörbuch, Digital, 61min
We live in a world where people feel escape is their only alternative. Housewives who feel they are overwhelmed with raising children, workers who feel they are powerless and cannot get ahead, people feeling trapped, paralyzed, and unbalanced in their daily lives. Socioeconomic pressures abound in our "advanced" modern-day society, and beneath the surface of humanity many of us are nervous and afraid as we are expected to portray, uphold, and obey an illusion of civilization that does not resemble the world in which we actually traffic. As a result of the mounting pressures, many people have turned to drugs to cope with their lives, only to destroy the lives they are trying to sustain. This has led to an increase in the use and abuse of hard drugs such as heroin. Millions of Americans aged 12 and older have used heroin at least once in their lives. Research reveals that a significant percentage of individuals who use heroin become dependent on it. The war on drugs has had little effect on actual drug use. It is a problem that is growing in America and now has reached epidemic proportions among everyday people. Language: English. Narrator: J. Michael Long.

SuperTex, Hörbuch, Digital, 382min
Was macht ein Jude am Schabbesmorgen in einem Porsche!" - das bekommt Max Breslauer zu hören, als er mit knapp hundert Sachen durch die Amsterdamer Innenstadt gerast ist und einen chassidischen Jungen auf dem Weg zur Synagoge angefahren hat. Eine Frage, die andere Fragen auslöst: "Was bin ich eigentlich? Ein Jude? Ein Goj? Worum dreht sich mein Leben?" Max, 36 Jahre alt und 90 Kilo schwer, Erbe eines Textilimperiums namens SuperTex, landet auf der Couch einer Analytikerin, der er sein Leben erzählt. Da ist vor allem seine Auseinandersetzung mit dem Vater, der das KZ überlebte, aber in seinem Mercedes ertrank. Simon Breslauer, ein wandelndes Archiv von jiddischen Redensarten, hatte nach dem Krieg die Kette mit Billig-Textilien aufgebaut, die Max nun erbt - ob er will oder nicht. Ein weiteres Trauma des assimilierten Juden aus dem Yuppie-Milieu: Fassungslos muss Max mitansehen, wie er seine große Liebe Esther, eine sephardische Jüdin aus altem Amsterdamer Adel, plötzlich an den orthodoxen Glauben verliert. Schließlich wirft noch sein Bruder Boy, der in Casablanca eigentlich nur einen Vertrag für SuperTex verlängern soll, seine Vergangenheit über Bord und verliebt sich in eine marokkanische Jüdin, deren Familie arm, aber groß und gläubig ist. So scheint Max der Einzige, der nicht in den Schoß der Tradition zurückfindet. "SuperTex" ist die farbige Geschichte eines Generationenkonflikts, ein Feuerwerk des Humors. Regie: Harald Koerner deutsch. Wolfgang Hinze. https://samples.audible.de/bk/swrm/000430/bk_swrm_000430_sample.mp3.- Shop: Audible

Timbuktu , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 342min
Meet Mr. Bones, the canine hero of Paul Auster's remarkable novel, Timbuktu. Mr. Bones is the sidekick and confidant of Willy G. Christmas, the brilliant, troubled, and altogether original poet-saint from Brooklyn. Like Don Quixote and Sancho Panza before them, they sally forth on a last great adventure, heading for Baltimore, Maryland, in search of Willy's high school teacher, Bea Swanson. Years have passed since Willy last saw his beloved mentor, who knew him in his previous incarnation as William Gurevitch, the son of Polish war refugees. But is Mrs. Swanson still alive? And if she isn't, what will prevent Willy from vanishing into that other world known as Timbuktu? Mr. Bones is our witness. Although he walks on four legs and cannot speak, he can think, and out of his thoughts Auster has spun one of the richest, most compelling tales in recent American fiction. By turns comic, poignant, and tragic, Timbuktu is above all a love story. Written with a scintillating verbal energy, it takes us into the heart of a singularly pure and passionate character, an unforgettable dog who has much to teach us about our own humanity. As an added bonus, when you purchase our Audible Modern Vanguard production of Paul Auster's book, you'll also get an exclusive Jim Atlas interview that begins when the audiobook ends. ungekürzt.

After Anatevka: Live, Hörbuch, Digital, 83min
A special live performance to satisfy Fiddler on the Roof fans who have long wondered what became of Tevye’s beloved family. Experience an enthralling performance featuring a cast of rising Broadway stars who join actress and author Alexandra Silber in celebrating the Audible release of After Anatevka, the sweeping historical novel she wrote about Tevye’s second-eldest daughter, Hodel. Silber’s fascination with Hodel began when she played her in a production of Fiddler in London’s West End. Actors often write a backstory for the characters they play so they can fully imagine and embody them onstage. But Silber was more interested in Hodel’s fate than her history. “I had never played a character who felt so much like me,” she says. “I felt responsible for what happened to her after she boards the train to Siberia to join her revolutionary fiancé Perchik.”Originally commissioned by Symphony Space, a form of this concert was produced in March 2017. After Anatevka Live brings to life dramatic excerpts from Silber’s novel with five original songs by contemporary composer and lyricist teams, plus two much-loved songs from Fiddler and one gem that was cut from the final song book. Directed by Carolyn Cantor with musical direction by Ben Moss and an introduction from Pulitzer and Tony Award-winning Fiddler lyricist Sheldon Harnick, this is a charming and magical event for any lover of musical theater.

Death, Dying, and the Afterlife: Lessons from World Cultures, Hörbuch, Digital, 749min
After thousands of years of pondering it, we still find death one of life's most perplexing mysteries. Many cultures view death as a window into the true meaning of life. These 24 lectures looking at this often feared subject are an uplifting, meaningful, and multidisciplinary exploration of life's only certainty. Bringing together theology, philosophy, biology, anthropology, literature, psychology, sociology, and other fields, they are a brilliant compendium of how human beings have struggled to come to terms with mortality. You'll encounter everything from ancient burial practices, traditional views of the afterlife, and the five stages of grief to the question of killing during wartime, the phenomenon of near-death experiences, and even 21st-century theories about transcending death itself. With personal and cultural enlightenment as the overarching goal, Professor Berkson provides you with eye-opening answers to several major questions surrounding death, including: How do we think about death? How do religions approach death? When (if ever) is it justified to take a life? You'll also hear a chorus of voices from multiple disciplines, cultures, and ages as they offer sometimes shocking and sometimes refreshing perspectives on death. These voices include the Buddha, St. Paul, Albert Camus, Dylan Thomas, and Elizabeth Kübler-Ross. "Many religious traditions teach that a form of regular death reflection can deepen one's appreciation for life," Professor Berkson notes. "And in some traditions, it can actually lead to spiritual transformation or awakening. As the poet Rainer Maria Rilke wrote, 'Whoever rightly understands and celebrates death at the same time magnifies life.'" PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio. Language: English. Narrator: Mark Berkson.
