    Oedipus the King: A Translation by F.L. Light , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 133min
    Aristotle's assertion that in Greek tragedy, there is no loftier work than Oedipus the King cannot be lightly contradicted. This drama is endued fearfully with nature, as she works against the conscientiousness of measure found in man. Heretofore no translation of this play has been a poem of Sophoclean worthiness and work. The rhythmic stature of this translation runs with the Greek in heat and light. "It is always gratifying, it elevates the human spirit to see one our fellows...set his aim unbelievably high and incredibly hit the mark!" (David Madgalene, bilingual author of I Hear A Journeyman Singing and many other books of verse.) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Alex Hyde-White.

    Adolf Hitler: The Leaders Series (Dramatized), Hörbuch, Digital, 58min
    Adolf Hitler had no compassion for his fellow man and yet could beguile them individually or in tens of thousands; he was so narcissistic that he could throw a tantrum to get his way if his supposedly iron will was contradicted. His favoured architect, Albert Speer, compared him to a 6-year-old child. This remark provides a valuable insight when considering Hitler's unthinking cruelty and incomparable destructiveness. In this sometimes spine-chilling audio biography, the dark atmosphere of the age is superbly conveyed, with actor Michael Burrell giving a terrifyingly convincing interpretation of the demonic despot. Hitler is played by Michael Burrell, with other parts played by Michael Kilgarrif and Michael Sheard. Language: English. Narrator: Stephen Thorne, Full Cast.

    The Winter Prince , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 387min
    Medraut is the eldest son of Artos, high king of Britain and, but for an accident of birth, would be heir to the throne. Instead, his younger half-brother, Lleu, fragile and inexperienced, is chosen. Medraut cannot bear to be commanded and contradicted by this weakling brother who he feels has usurped both his birthright and his father's favor. Torn and bitter, he joins Morgause, the high king's treacherous sister, in a plot to force Artos to forfeit his power and kingdom in exchange for Lleu's life. But this plot soon proves to be much more-a battlefield on which Medraut is forced to decide, for good or evil, where his own allegiance truly lies. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    King Henry V (eBook, ePUB)
    The New Cambridge Shakespeare appeals to students worldwide for its up-to-date scholarship and emphasis on performance. The series features line-by-line commentaries and textual notes on the plays and poems. Introductions are regularly refreshed with accounts of new critical, stage and screen interpretations. For this second edition of King Henry V, Shakespeare's most celebrated war play, Andrew Gurr has added a new section to his introduction in which he considers recent criticism and important contemporary productions of the play. Concentrating in particular on 'secret' versus 'official' readings of the work, he analyses Shakespeare's double vision of Henry as both military hero and self-seeking individual, and shows how the patriotic declarations of the Chorus are contradicted by the play's dramatic action. Controversial sequences are placed in the context of Elizabethan thought while the exceptional variety of language and dialect in the text is also studied. An updated reading list completes the edition.

    Success: The Path to Personal Fulfillment Through Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Fighters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 232min
    This book is a collection of intimate and sometimes shocking conversations about success. Each story will inspire, enlighten, and entertain you.In Success, not only did I seek to discover what motivates high achievers, but I also dug for the philosophies that lead to success.During these interviews, I asked uncomfortable questions that led to answers that often surprised even the athletes being interviewed, because it is the subconscious mind that drives most ambitious people to achieve.Each athlete came from a diverse background, but there were common themes that every reader can embrace and model in their own lives.A key takeaway was how each fighter defined success - often their answers contradicted societal norms.Jiu-Jitsu has often been used as a metaphor for life, but in these stories, you can replace Jiu-Jitsu with any ambitious pursuit - the lessons are universal.Get ready for an intense journey. ungekürzt.

    Dark Lady, Hörbuch, Digital, 369min
    In Steelton, a struggling city on the cusp of an economic turnaround, two prominent men are found dead. One is Tommy Fielding, a senior officer of the company building a new baseball stadium, the city's hope for the future. The other is Jack Novak, the local drug dealers' attorney. Fielding's death with a prostitute, from an overdose of heroin, seems accidental; Novak is apparently the victim of a ritual murder. But in each case the character of the dead man seems contradicted by the particulars of his death. Coincidence or connection? The question falls to Assistant County Prosecutor Stella Marz. A driven woman, she is called the Dark Lady by defense lawyers for her relentless, sometimes ruthless, style: in seven years only one case has gotten away from her, and only because the defendant took his own life. Making her way through a maze of corruption, deceit, and greed, trusting no one, Stella comes to believe that the search for the truth involves the bleak history of Steelton itself - a history that now endangers her future, and perhaps her life.

    A Macat Analysis of Steven Pinker's The Better Angels of Our Nature: Why Violence Has Declined , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 103min
    Published in 2011, The Better Angels of Our Nature is a gloriously optimistic book. In it, well-known cognitive psychologist Steven Pinker put forward an argument that contradicted what most people believed at the time. Pinker said that despite humanity's biological tendency toward violence, we are, in fact, less violent today than ever before. To prove it, he laid out pages of detailed statistical evidence. For him, much of the credit for the decline goes to the Enlightenment, the important intellectual movement of 18th-century Europe. Enlightenment thinkers argued for ideas of liberty, tolerance, and respect for the value of human life. As those ideas filtered down through society, they affected the way people thought. That psychological change led to behavioral change - and overall we became more peaceful. But the book sparked a blazing debate. Some critics passionately disagreed that humanity could overcome the biological urge toward violence. Others argued that Pinker's statistics were too focused on the West, too limited, and even simply flawed. The debate still rages on. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Macat.com.

In my defense, my suggestion he adopt a fake fiancée wasn't me volunteering for the role. I only went up there to apologize, how did I walk away engaged to the CEO? I have a coach to get me through it. A woman who knows what it is to be involved with a man in my boss's league. Her first and most crucial piece of advice? Don't fall for him. Easy. At least, that's what I think until he kisses me. All we're supposed to do is convince his ex she has no chance of winning him back. That doesn't mean I have to live with him, share his bed, or get naked with him… How come I end up doing all three? It doesn't matter, so long as I heed Roxie's advice: don't fall for him. I'm not worried. Soon it will be over, and I'll be free. There's no chance of falling for him. None… Right? Warning: Contains explicit language and imagery. Suitable only for ages 18 and over.
