    And The Sun Stood Still, Hörbuch, Digital, 110min
    Dava Sobel’s thoughtful play brings to life the story of Nicolaus Copernicus, the Renaissance astronomer, and mathematician who proposed the heliocentric model of the universe in which the Sun stands at the center.

    Madam Bovary - Klasik Kadinlar
    Ünlü Ingiliz romanci ve elestirmen Arnold Bennett, klasik edebiyat tanimini yaparken, Herkesin okudugu sanilan ve herkesin okudugunu sandigi kitap, demisti. Italo Calvinoya göre ise klasik, ilk okundugunda verdigi kesif duygusunu her okunusunda yeniden veren kitaptir. Fransiz edebiyatinda gercekciligin babasi olarak kabul edilen Gustave Flaubertin Madam Bovarysi, bu iki ustanin klasik tanimlarina en uygun düsen eserlerden biridir. 19. yüzyil tasra burjuvazisinin yasamini gercekci bir bakis acisiyla sergileyen, ilk yayimlandiginda ahlakdisilik suclamasiyla dava konusu olan Madam Bovary, hem edebiyatta yeni bir cag acmis hem de eskidikce yenilesen, yaslandikca genclesen pek az romandan biri olarak günümüze ulasmistir.

    The Glass Universe , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 712min
    Number one New York Times best-selling author Dava Sobel returns with a captivating, little-known true story of women in science. In the mid-19th century, the Harvard College Observatory began employing women as calculators, or 'human computers', to interpret the observations their male counterparts made via telescope each night. As photography transformed the practice of astronomy, the women turned to studying images of the stars captured on glass photographic plates, making extraordinary discoveries that attracted worldwide acclaim. They helped discern what the stars were made of, divided them into meaningful categories for further research, and even found a way to measure distances across space by starlight. Elegantly written and enriched by excerpts from letters, diaries, and memoirs, The Glass Universe is the hidden history of a group of remarkable women whose vital contributions to the burgeoning field of astronomy forever changed our understanding of the stars and our place in the universe. ungekürzt.

    Dias Eternos (eBook, ePUB)
    Meus instintos me alertaram: Alex Volkov era um homem perigoso. Minha mente me disse para correr quando ele pôs seus olhos em mim com determinação inabalável. Eu tentei resistir, mas Alex tinha um plano traçado. Ele estava sempre um passo à minha frente, habilmente me enredando em sua teia. Mesmo quando ele me dava liberdade, era apenas uma ilusão. Agora, até mesmo essa ilusão desapareceu. Eu sou sua prisioneira no verdadeiro sentido da palavra, levada para a Rússia em seu avião particular. Minha palavra não conta, não enquanto nossas vidas estiverem em risco e, talvez, depois disso. Nossa história se equilibra em uma linha tênue entre desastre e felicidade. A cada dia que passa, fico menos certo de que lado a moeda cairá... ou se vamos sobreviver. NOTA: Esta é a conclusão da história de Alex e Kate.
