    Shake Hands for Ever, Hörbuch, Digital, 167min
    Most people would have screamed. Mrs Hathall made no sound. She had seen death many times before, but she had never before seen a death by violence. Heavily, she plodded across the room and descended the stairs to where her son waited. ‘There’s been an accident’, she said. ‘Your wife’s dead.’ Chief Inspector Wexford could discover no motive, no reason and no suspect – all he had were his intuitive suspicions. Probably he was reading meaning where there was none; probably Angela Hathall really had picked up a stranger, and that stranger had killed her. But why such doubt? Was Wexford becoming cynical and untrusting – or was this simply one of the most ingenious crimes he had ever tackled? Language: English. Narrator: George Baker.

    Democracy in America , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 167min
    Alexis de Tocqueville, a young French aristocrat, captured the essence of nineteenth-century America in his penetrating work, Democracy in America. The democratic concept of equality was emerging as a political reality in America, and it threatened the aristocracy of Europe; it produced a society of individualists hungry for self improvement. In this classic treatise, Tocqueville weighed the advantages of democracy against its dangers. He asked: Is the tendency toward equality a tendency toward liberty? Can the majority be restrained to protect the freedom of individuals and minorities? In pondering these questions, Tocqueville presented an unsurpassed picture of American government, culture, and attitudes. He proclaimed a new nation with a new theory of human interaction: America, ruled by the will of the majority. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Craig Deitschmann.

    Sternstunden der Menschheit 2, Hörbuch, Digital, 167min
    Sternstunden der Menschheit" ist eine ab 1927 erschienene Sammlung literarischer Miniaturen des großen österreichischen Autors und Verfassers der "Schachnovelle" Stefan Zweig - kurze, prägnante Schlaglichter voller erzählerischer Leuchtkraft, die von historischen Begebenheiten und den sie prägenden Menschen erzählen, Momenten, deren Auswirkungen die Geschichte der Menschheit verändert haben. "Sternstunden" nennt Zweig diese historischen Augenblicke, denn "solche dramatisch geballten, solche schicksalsträchtigen Stunden, in denen eine zeitüberdauernde Entscheidung auf ein einziges Datum, eine einzige Stunde und oft nur eine Minute zusammengedrängt ist, sind selten im Leben eines Einzelnen und selten im Laufe der Geschichte. Ich habe sie so genannt, weil sie leuchtend und unwandelbar wie Sterne die Nacht der Vergänglichkeit überglänzen." Der zweite Teil des dreiteiligen Hörbuchs enthält die sechs Sternstunden "Die Marienbader Elegie" (über des alternden Johann Wolfgang Goethes unerfüllte Liebe zu Ulrike von Levetzow), "Die Entdeckung Eldorados" (über Johann August Sutter und den kalifornischen Goldrausch), "Heroischer Augenblick" (über Fjodor Dostojewskis Begnadigung unmittelbar vor seiner bereits angesetzten Hinrichtung), "Der Kampf um den Südpol" (über den tragischen Wettlauf von Scott und Amundsen durch die Antarktis), "Das Genie einer Nacht" (über die Geburtsstunde der "Marseillaise") und "Der versiegelte Zug" (über Lenins folgenschwere Reise 1917 im plombierten Zug von der Schweiz in das revolutionäre Russland). All diese Miniaturen sind nicht nur historisch lehrreich, sondern vor allem auch höchst spannend erzählt. Zudem sind sie wahre "Sternstunden" auch der Vorlesekunst - und für den Zuhörer! deutsch.

    It's in Us All , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 167min
    Have you ever wondered if you were sitting next to a murderer? Maybe you have. But, here's a more intriguing question. Have you ever wondered if you had it in you to kill? Like a lion in the wild, humans have an innate sense to fight or flight. When seriously stressful situations leave us with only those two options, many of us choose to take flight. We choose to remove ourselves from the stress, the pain, or the fear before the urge to fight is only a hairsbreadth away. Still doubting your ability to be a murderer? Okay, question: Have any of your primal instincts ever kicked in? Your palms start to sweat, your muscles start to tense, maybe a little shortness of breath, or, the most conscious, the hair on the back of your neck start to stand. I figured you had. Then you, my friend, have it in you to murder. This is what I like to call the "rustling in the grass effect". Does this make you a bad person, or mean you will ever kill in your lifetime? No. It makes you human. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Phil Steuer. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/088014/bk_acx0_088014_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
