    Landfill: Notes on Gull Watching and Trash Picking in the Anthropocene , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 338min
    Over the past 100 years, gulls have been brought ashore by modernity. They now live not only on the coasts, but in our slipstream following trawlers, barges, and garbage trucks. They are more our contemporaries than most birds, living their wild lives among us in towns and cities. In many ways, they live as we do, walking the built-up world and grabbing a bite where they can. Yet this disturbs us. We’ve started fearing gulls for getting good at being among us. We see them as scavengers, not entrepreneurs; oceangoing aliens, not refugees. They are too big for the world they have entered. Their story is our story, too.Landfill is the original and compelling story of how in the Anthropocene, we have learned about the natural world, named and cataloged it, and then colonized it, planted it, or filled it with our junk. While most other birds have gone in the opposite direction, hiding away from us, some vanishing forever, gulls continue to tell us how the wild can share our world. For these reasons, Landfill is the nature audiobook for our times, groundbreaking and genre-bending. Without nostalgia or eulogy, it kicks beneath the littered surface of the things to discover stranger truths. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tim Dee.

    Miss Iceland (eBook, ePUB)
    "Will appeal to readers of Elena Ferrante and Margaret Atwood... the unusual setting offers an interesting twist on the portrait of an artist as a young woman." -Bookpage In 1960s Iceland, Hekla dreams of being a writer. In a nation of poets, where each household proudly displays leatherbound volumes of the Sagas, and there are more writers per capita than anywhere else in the world, there is only one problem: she is a woman. After packing her few belongings, including James Joyces's Ulysses and a Remington typewriter, Hekla heads for Reykjavik with a manuscript buried in her bags. She moves in with her friend Jon, a gay man who longs to work in the theatre, but can only find dangerous, backbreaking work on fishing trawlers. Hekla's opportunities are equally limited: marriage and babies, or her job as a waitress, in which harassment from customers is part of the daily grind. The two friends feel completely out of place in a small and conservative world. And yet that world is changing: JFK is shot. Hemlines are rising. In Iceland, another volcano erupts and Hekla meets a poet who brings to light harsh realities about her art-as she realizes she must escape to find freedom abroad, whatever the cost. Miss Iceland, a winner of two international book awards, comes from the acclaimed author of Hotel Silence, which received the Icelandic Literary Prize. "Only a great book can make you feel you're really there, a thousand miles and a generation away. I loved it." -Kit de Waal, author of My Name is Leon "[A] winning tale of friendship and self-fulfillment." -Publishers Weekly, starred review
