H Is for Hawk , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 666min
When Helen MacDonald's father died suddenly on a London street, she was devastated. An experienced falconer captivated by hawks since childhood, she'd never before been tempted to train one of the most vicious predators: the goshawk. But in her grief, she saw that the goshawk's fierce and feral anger mirrored her own. Resolving to purchase and raise the deadly creature as a means to cope with her loss, she adopted Mabel and turned to the guidance of The Once and Future King author T. H. White's chronicle The Goshawk to begin her journey into Mabel's world. Projecting herself "in the hawk's wild mind to tame her" tested the limits of MacDonald's humanity. By turns heartbreaking and hilarious, this book is an unflinching account of bereavement, a unique look at the magnetism of an extraordinary beast, and the story of an eccentric falconer and legendary writer. Weaving together obsession, madness, memory, myth, and history, H Is for Hawk is a distinctive, surprising blend of nature writing and memoir from a very gifted writer. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Way Things Were , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 666min
The Way Things Were is a collection of stories and novellas by Ukrainian writer Marko Vovchok (Maria Alexandrona Vilinskaya-Markevich) focused around the lives of Russian and Ukrainian serfs during the last decade of slavery in the Russian Empire. These works were instrumental to the abolitionist movement, whose members - writers, poets, artists, and political activists - eventually succeeded in bringing about the Emancipation reform of 1861 and ending six centuries of serfdom. Marko Vovchok's stories are not epic, historically significant episodes, but rather small everyday vignettes from the lives of serfs and their masters, made all the more powerful by their serene, conversational style bringing the reality of the era into stark relief. ungekürzt.

Faust: Parts 1 & 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 666min
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) is considered the greatest German literary figure of the modern era. His works include four novels, poems, prose and verse dramas, an autobiography, and treatises on botany, anatomy and color. Faust is a tragic play in two parts that reworks the late medieval myth of a brilliant but disillusioned scholar who makes a deal with the devil. Faust is considered by many to be Goethe's masterpiece and the greatest work of German literature. Part I sets out Faust’s despair, his pact with Mephistopheles, and his love for Gretchen. Part II deals with Faust’s life at court, the wooing and winning of Helen of Troy, and his purification and redemption. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Adriel Brandt.

Die Wiege des Windes. Inselkrimi, Hörbuch, Digital, 666min
Unbequem, unbeugsam und aufsässig ist Björn Larsen - vor allem, wenn es um den Schutz des Wattenmeeres geht. Dort draußen, zwischen den Inseln, kreuzt seit geraumer Zeit scheinbar ziellos ein rostrot gestrichenes Schiff unter schwedischer Flagge. Larsen befürchtet Gefahren für die Umwelt, doch die Nationalparkverwaltung reagiert nicht auf seine Warnungen. Als auf den Leiter der Behörde ein Briefbombenanschlag verübt wird und Larsen verschwindet, übernimmt das LKA die Ermittlungen. Diese führen zurück in die längst vergangene Zeit des großen Widerstandes gegen Atomkraft und Umweltzerstörung, und bald tauchen Zweifel auf. Ist Larsen wirklich der gesuchte Attentäter? Oder ist er selber in Gefahr und alle, die ihn kennen? deutsch. Jürgen Holdorf. https://samples.audible.de/bk/tsdr/000124/bk_tsdr_000124_sample.mp3.- Shop: Audible

Ivy Morgan hasn't been feeling like herself lately. Not like anyone can blame her. After all, being held captive by a psychotic fae prince hell-bent on permanently opening the gates to the Otherworld is bound to leave some mental scars. It's more than that, though. Something dark and insidious is spreading throughout Ivy, more powerful than she could ever imagine...and it's coming between her and the man she's fallen deeply in love with, elite Order member Ren Owens. Ren would do anything to keep Ivy safe. Anything. But when he makes a life-altering choice for her, the fallout of his act has far-reaching consequences that threaten to tear their lives apart. If Ivy is going to have any hope of surviving this, she must put aside the hurt and betrayal she feels and work not only with those she loves but with an enemy she would rather kill than ever trust. War is coming, and it soon becomes clear that what Ivy and Ren thought they knew about the Order, themselves, and even their enemies has been nothing but a cluster of dangerous, deadly lies. Ivy knows she must be more than just brave to save those she loves - and, ultimately, to save herself. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Amy Landon.
