All Gold Canyon
It was the green heart of the canyon, where the walls swerved back from the rigid plan and relieved their harshness of line by making a little sheltered nook and filling it to the brim with sweetness and roundness and softness. Here all things rested. Even the narrow stream ceased its turbulent down-rush long enough to form a quiet pool. Knee-deep in the water, with drooping head and half-shut eyes, drowsed a red-coated, many-antlered buck.- Shop: buecher

National Book Critics Circle Award, Autobiography, 2011In this powerful, unforgettable memoir, acclaimed novelist Darin Strauss examines the far-reaching consequences of the tragic moment that has shadowed his whole life. In his last month of high school, he was behind the wheel of his dad's Oldsmobile, driving with friends, heading off to play mini-golf. Then: a classmate swerved in front of his car. The collision resulted in her death. With piercing insight and stark prose, Darin Strauss leads us on a deeply personal, immediate, and emotional journey - graduating high school, going away to college, starting his writing career, falling in love with his future wife, becoming a father. Along the way, he takes a hard look at loss and guilt, maturity and accountability, hope and, at last, acceptance. The result is a staggering, uplifting tour de force.

Genesis : Harry Starke Genesis, Book 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 294min
She appeared out of nowhere. A chance meeting. And then she was gone, abducted. The shadow crossed in front of the car so fast I didn’t have time to stop. I hit the brakes hard and swerved into the mud at the side of the road. Looking out through the deluge it was difficult to make out the figure coming towards the driver’s window, but as it came closer I could see it was a girl, just a kid. Instinctively, my hand went for my gun and rested on the grip as she approached. Her hair, dark, bobbed, was plastered to her head and face. The raccoon eye shadow smeared above her eyes had run in rivulets down her cheeks. And she looked scared, really scared, that much was obvious. What the hell is she doing out here alone in this kind of weather? I thought as I rolled the window down a half-inch. “Get in the back,” I yelled at her, and flipped the lock so she could open the door. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Lennon.

The Place Where There Were No Graves , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 6min
Dan Edwards was getting sick and tired of everybody dying around him and having to attend so many funerals. One night, while he was lying in bed watching TV and daydreaming, he said aloud, "I wish there was a place where there were no graves." So he immediately got out of bed, sat down at the computer, and searched for hours. Then just as he was about to give up he got lucky. There was a small island barely on the map that never buried their dead. Dan just had to find out for himself if this was too good to be true, so he got on the next flight the next morning. Dan boarded the plane, put on his headphones, and listened to Drac Von Stoller's audiobooks on the way to his destination. The plane finally landed after 13 hours, Dan removed his headphones and looked out the window in the plane and said "Wow! This island is beautiful. I can't wait to get off this plane, meet these wonderful people, and ask them why there are no graves anywhere on the island." Dan stepped off the plane and was greeted by a tour guide, so he wouldn't be lost and have to find things on his own. Dan boarded a bus for his tour of the island. The tour was very interesting and helpful, but Dan still wanted to know what happens when their loved ones die. Dan tapped the tour guide on the shoulder and said "Could I ask you a question." "Sure!" replied the tour guide. "If someone dies what happens to their body?" Then all of a sudden the bus swerved avoiding a collision with an animal crossing the buses path. Dan lost his train of thought so the tour guide didn't get to answer his question... ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ted Brooks.
