Soul Solution: Beyond Fairytales , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 180min
For Erik Anderson, the Copenhagen line is his curse. He takes the train every night to collect souls. Like any lovelorn fool, he bargained his own long ago, and now pays the price - a lifetime of loneliness as a grim reaper. Stay distant - that's been his mantra and what keeps him sane. Until Mina Castner drops into his life like a whirlwind, one spilled drink leading to staying up until dawn with the woman. He believed one night couldn't hurt, but he sorely underestimated her determination. Every encounter between them is a reprieve from the guilt of reaping souls every night, but it can't last. Even if she sparks long buried feelings, and even if her sheer presence intoxicates him, he can't let this continue. For humans, his touch is poison, and if he slips up, it could cost her her life. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eddie Caiazzo.

Blood of the Liberals , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 1032min
An acclaimed journalist and novelist explores the legacy and future of American liberalism through the history of his family's politically active history.George Packer's maternal grandfather, George Huddleston, was a populist congressman from Alabama in the early part of the century - an agrarian liberal in the Jacksonian mold who opposed the New Deal. Packer's father was a Kennedy-era liberal, a law professor and dean at Stanford whose convictions were sorely - and ultimately, fatally - tested in the campus upheavals of the 1960s. The inheritor of two sometimes conflicting strains of the great American liberal tradition, Packer discusses the testing of ideals in the lives of his father and grandfather and his own struggle to understand the place of the progressive tradition in our currently polarized political climate. Searching, engrossing, and persuasive, this is an original, intimate examination of the meaning of politics in American lives. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: George Packer.

The Purchase , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 654min
In this provocative and starkly beautiful historical novel, a Quaker family moves from Pennsylvania to the Virginia frontier, where slaves are the only available workers and where the family’s values and beliefs are sorely tested.

A Chef's Table: August 10, 2006, Hörbuch, Digital, 49min
It's hard to believe that it has been nearly a year since Hurricane Katrina made landfall on the coasts of Mississippi, Alabama, and Louisiana. On today's show, we'll see how the region is faring. The reviews have been mixed: some will say they are well on the road to normalcy; others indicate help has been sorely lacking. And you can't talk about the effect of Katrina without looking at the heart of New Orleans and its food culture. We'll hear from Executive Chef Tory McPhail about the re-opening of Commander's Palace. Then, get an update on Louisiana's fishing industry and hear from a volunteer working to rebuild a small restaurant in the Crescent City. Plus, an intimate look at Avery Island, the home of Tabasco, and family recipes from New Orleans. [Broadcast Date: August 10, 2006] Language: English. Narrator: Jim Coleman.

The Outlaw Album: Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 215min
Twelve timeless Ozarkian tales of those on the fringes of society, by a "stunningly original" (Associated Press) American master.Daniel Woodrell is able to lend uncanny logic to harsh, even criminal behavior in this wrenching collection of stories. Desperation-both material and psychological - motivates his characters. A husband cruelly avenges the killing of his wife's pet; an injured rapist is cared for by a young girl, until she reaches her breaking point; a disturbed veteran of Iraq is murdered for his erratic behavior; an outsider's house is set on fire by an angry neighbor. There is also the tenderness and loyalty of the vulnerable in these stories - between spouses, parents and children, siblings, and comrades in arms - which brings the troubled, sorely tested cast of characters to vivid, relatable life. And, as ever, "the music coming from Woodrell's banjo cannot be confused with the sounds of any other writer" (Donald Harington, Atlanta Journal Constitution). ungekürzt. Language: English.
