    From acclaimed novelist Charles Portis comes this comic masterpiece of secret societies, lost cities, and American dreamers. Stationed in France in 1917, Lamar Jimmerson comes across a little book crammed with Atlantean puzzles, Egyptian riddles, and extended alchemical metaphors. It's the Codex Pappus - the sacred Gnomon text. Soon he is basking in the lore of lost Atlantis, convinced that his mission on earth is to extend the ranks of this noble brotherhood. He forms the Gnomon Society, an international fraternal order dedicated to preserving that lost city's arcane wisdom. From the publication of Jimmerson's own Gnomic texts, through the schism that rocks the Gnomic community, to the fateful gathering of the Gnomons in a mobile-home park in East Texas, Masters of Atlantis is a cockeyed journey into an America of misfits and con-men, oddballs, and innocents. ungekürzt.

    Peeing on Hot Coals: Drowning the Devil is a coming of age story that finds laughter in cockeyed yet utterly unbelievable details. You will keep listening to find out what more could happen to this sweet child of the Great Depression living in America's dust bowl, enduring severe burns down there, and horrific dust storms as she struggles to find her place in a tattered world inhabited by a terrifying God and a Devil directly from Hell. And with it all, we laugh at the vivid descriptions of her preacher dad, a straight from the Bible Belt Mama and eight siblings, all of whom, she thinks are more talented and beautiful than she will ever be. From humble beginnings and with little formal education, Patsy Lou proves that a sense of humor, fearlessness, and an attitude of It Can Be Done make dreams into reality. Peeing on Hot Coals leaves us with much to ponder about life's marathon journey. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Elizabeth Helitzer.

    Author Geoffrey Giuliano and Bonzo Dog man "Legs" Larry Smith had a professional relationship that spanned six wry, weird years in the early 1980s. Together they crafted a cockeyed film script for Giuliano’s firm, intended for George Harrison’s Handmade Films, entitled Half of Larry’s Lunch, which, unfortunately, never made it to the screen and was eventually dropped. With concentrated work on the project conducted in pastoral Henley-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, and Toronto, the two men spent untold months living and working together. Only recently was the interview and other material used in the production of this unique audiobook discovered after being lost for over three decades.With a lively, fairly bizarre interview between the two, an oddly amusing collection of Henley street interviews conducted by Geoffrey, and other Giuliano-penned musical odds and ends, here is a rare inside look at not only the unlikely relationship between these two talented men but also a breakdown of the creative process in its rawest and most primal form. An audio biographical must for all pop and rock fans, Bonzo Dog freaks, film buffs, and university and school systems. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Geoffrey Giuliano.

    How wrong can a grandmother be?When the matriarch of the least successful Jewish family in America gets tired of their misfortune, she begins to consult mystical texts for help.Determined that their next born grandchild will be a genius who changes their fortunes, and convinced that no one in her clan is smart enough to raise a genius by themselves, she decides that the child will be passed from household to household to gain their collective wisdom.A picaresque romp set in 1950's Brooklyn, Cousins' Club is a delightful escape filled with unusual events, radical rogues, cockeyed intellectuals and pie-eyed strivers.Semi-finalist -  2017 Booklife Prize (Fiction)Praise from critics and readers:"A darkly comic novel about an eccentric Jewish family that hatches a novel plan to raise a genius child." (BookLife)"Written with a sharp, satiric blade, Cousins' Club reminded me strongly of Tristram Shandy." (Readers' Favorite)"Mix a little Alfred Hitchcock, Agatha Christie, some history of lower Manhattan circa 50’s & 60’s and throw it all into a pot of hysterical Jewish humor. Cousins’ Club is a delightful read!" (George Landress)"A real achievement." (Publishers Weekly) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: TJ Clark.

    Mark Twain's lifetime spans America's era of greatest economic growth. And Twain was an active, even giddy, participant in all the great booms and busts of his time, launching himself into one harebrained get-rich-quick scheme after another. But far from striking it rich, the man who coined the term "Gilded Age" failed with comical regularity to join the ranks of plutocrats who made this period in America notorious for its wealth and excess. Instead, Twain's mining firm failed, despite striking real silver. He ended up somehow owing money over his 30,000 acres of inherited land. And his plan to market the mysteriously energizing coca leaves from the Amazon fizzled when no ships would sail to South America. Undaunted, Twain poured his money into the latest newfangled inventions of his time, all of which failed miserably. In Crawford's hilarious telling, the familiar image of Twain takes on a new and surprising dimension. Twain's story of financial optimism and perseverance is a kind of cracked-mirror history of American business itself - in its grandest cockeyed manifestations, its most comical lows, and its determined refusal to ever give up. ungekürzt.
