    Fresh Air, Martha McSally and John Whitehead, Hörbuch, Digital, 46min
    Lieutenant Colonel Martha McSally and her lawyer, John Whitehead, on this edition of Fresh Air. Martha McSally is our nation's highest-ranking female fighter pilot. Last month, she sued the Defense Department for its policy toward women military personnel stationed in Saudi Arabia. When traveling off-base women are required to wear traditional Islamic religious clothing, covering themselves from head to foot. They also have to be chaperoned by a male and are required to ride in the backseat of any vehicle. Last week, the Pentagon amended the language regarding the women's dress code in Saudi Arabia from "mandatory" to "strongly encouraged". McSally is continuing her suit on the other counts. McSally flew more than 100 hours patrolling the "no-fly" zone over Iraq. She currently is a flight instructor stationed in Tucson, Arizona. Whitehead is with the Rutherford Institute, an international, nonprofit civil liberties organization committed to defending constitutional and human rights.

    Dreadful: The Short Life and Gay Times of John Horne Burns , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 627min
    American author John Horne Burns (1916 - 1953) led a brief and controversial life, and as a writer, transformed many of his darkest experiences into literature. Burns was born in Massachusetts, graduated from Andover and Harvard, and went on to teach English at the Loomis School, a boarding school for boys in Windsor, Connecticut. During World War II he was stationed in Africa and Italy and worked mainly in military intelligence. His first novel, The Gallery (1947), based on his wartime experiences, was critically acclaimed and one of the first to unflinchingly depict gay life in the military. The Gallery sold half a million copies upon publication, but never again would Burns receive that kind of critical or popular attention. Dreadful follows Burns from his education at the best schools to his final years of drinking and depression in Italy. With intelligence and insight, David Margolick examines Burns' moral ambivalence toward the behavior of American soldiers stationed with him in Naples, and the scandal surrounding his second novel, Lucifer with a Book, an unflattering portrayal of his experiences at Loomis. ungekürzt.
