The Holy Woman of Lincoln : The Four Knights, Volume 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 578min

Beatrice de Grey wrestles with her future. She could return to the convent, but this choice has little appeal. She should go back to Normandy and care for her father, but their relationship is fraught with tension after years of neglect. She could stay with her brother and his wife, Helena, but she will be naught but a burden. Robert Saville had been told that the king will soon be after him to wed. He is at the age when he should be siring an heir. He meets the perfect mate, Beatrice, at her brother’s wedding. His offer of marriage changes her future. He opens possibilities she hasn’t considered in eight years. But the promise of a future that could bring love and security is accompanied by expectations; expectations she can never meet. Beatrice has worried about this from the moment Sir Robert articulated them. Now, the bishop tells her that he is pleased there is a holy woman in Lincoln. Her dear sister-in-law, Helena, helped her prepare to fulfill the responsibilities of chatelaine, but to be a “holy woman” raises a specter far surpassing anything she can achieve. Ahead of her is a mountain she can never climb. After all, she is naught but a simple girl fresh from the nunnery. But this isn’t about human limitations. The ancient one explains how she has been prepared for her life’s mission. To yield to the Spirit is to realize the manifestations. Inside her is a holy woman, and she will make a profound difference in people’s lives. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shannon Butler.

Lady Catherine and the Real Downton Abbey , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 647min

Sometimes the facts are even more extraordinary than the fiction... This book tells the story of Lady Catherine, a beautiful American girl who became the chatelaine of Highclere Castle, the setting for Julian Fellowes' award-winning drama Downton Abbey. Charming and charismatic, Catherine caught the eye of Lord Porchester (or 'Porchey', as he was known) when she was just 20 years old, and wearing a pale yellow dress at a ball. She had already turned down 14 proposals before she eventually married Porchey in 1922. But less than a year later Porchey's father died suddenly, and he became the 6th Earl of Carnarvon, inheriting a title and a Castle that changed both their lives forever. Catherine found herself suddenly in charge of a small army of household staff, and hosting lavish banquets and weekend house parties. Although the couple were very much in love, considerable challenges lay ahead for Catherine. They were immediately faced with the task of saving Highclere when debts threatened to destroy the estate. As the 1920s moved to a close, Catherine's adored brother died and she began to lose her husband to the distractions London had to offer. When the Second World War broke out, life at the Castle would never be the same again. Drawing on rich material from the private archives at Highclere, including beautiful period photographs, the current Countess of Carnarvon transports us back to the thrilling and alluring world of the 'real Downton Abbey' and its inhabitants. ungekürzt.

Brown: What Being Brown in the World Today Means (to Everyone) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 582min

Winner of the Shaughnessy Cohen Prize for Political Writing Finalist for the Governor General's Literary Award for Non-Fiction and the Trillium Book Award A Globe and Mail, National Post, Toronto Life, Walrus, CBC Books, Chatelaine, Hill Times, 49th Shelf, and Writers' Trust Best Book of the Year With the urgency and passion of Ta-Nehisi Coates (Between the World and Me), the seductive storytelling of JD Vance (Hillbilly Elegy) and the historical rigor of Carol Anderson (White Rage), Kamal Al-Solaylee explores the in-between space that brown people occupy in today's world: on the cusp of whiteness and the edge of blackness. Brown proposes a cohesive racial identity and politics for the millions of people from the Global South and provides a timely context for the frictions and anxieties around immigration and multiculturalism that have led to the rise of populist movements in Europe and the election of Donald Trump. At once personal and global, Brown is packed with storytelling and on-the-street reporting conducted over two years in 10 countries on four continents that reveals a multitude of lives and stories from destinations as far apart as the United Arab Emirates, the Philippines, the United States, Britain, Trinidad, France, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka, Qatar, and Canada. It features striking research about the emergence of brown as the color of cheap labor and the pursuit of a lighter skin tone as a global status symbol. As he studies the significance of brown skin for people from North Africa and the Middle East, Mexico and Central America, and South and East Asia, Al-Solaylee also reflects on his own identity and experiences as a brown-skinned person (in his case from Yemen) who grew up with images of whiteness as the only indicators of beauty and success. This is a daring and politically resonant work that challenges our assumptions about race, immigration, and globalism and recounts the hear ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Fajer Al-Kaisi.

Wallis in Love: The Untold Life of the Duchess of Windsor, the Woman Who Changed the Monarchy , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 731min

For fans of the Netflix series The Crown and from the author of the New York Times best seller 17 Carnations comes a captivating biography of Wallis Simpson, the notorious woman for whom Edward VIII gave up the throne. "You have no idea how hard it is to live out a great romance." (Wallis Simpson) Before she became known as the woman who enticed a king from his throne and birthright, Bessie Wallis Warfield was a prudish and particular girl from Baltimore. At turns imaginative, ambitious, and spoiled, Wallis's first words as recalled by her family were "me, me." From that young age, she was in want of nothing but stability, status, and social acceptance as she fought to climb the social ladder and take her place in London society. As irony would have it, she would gain the love and devotion of a king, but only at the cost of his throne and her reputation. In Wallis in Love, acclaimed biographer Andrew Morton offers a fresh portrait of Wallis Simpson in all her vibrancy and brazenness as she transformed from a hard-nosed gold-digger to charming chatelaine. Using diary entries, letters, and other never-before-seen records, Morton takes us through Wallis's romantic adventures in Washington, China, and her entrance into the strange wonderland that is London society. During her journey, we meet an extraordinary array of characters, many of whom smoothed the way for her dalliance with the king of England, Edward VIII.Wallis in Love goes beyond Wallis's infamous persona and reveals a complex, domineering woman striving to determine her own fate and grapple with matters of the heart.
