Alice's Adventures in Wonderland , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 170min
Alice's rather wild adventures in Wonderland begin on an unadventurous picnic, when her attention, wandering off from the lesson it was supposed to be glued to, is caught by a passing white rabbit who happens to be wearing a waistcoat and muttering to himself, "Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!" As he disappears down a rabbit hole, and Alice, for want of anything better to do, follows him, a tale of almost hallucinogenic wildness unfolds as she finds herself in Wonderland - a fantastical world where the characters Alice meets and the situations in which she finds herself have the whiff of symbol and allegory about them but are too whimsical to be pinned down as such. The story of how Alice's Adventures in Wonderland came to be written, and the author’s association with the Liddell family - and Alice Liddell in particular - is now the stuff of legend. One summer afternoon in 1862, the author, in the company of the Reverend Robinson Duckworth, took the three Liddell sisters, Lorina Charlotte, Alice Pleasance and Edith Mary, out in a rowing boat on the River Thames, near Oxford. On that boat trip, he entertained the girls by telling them a story about a bored little girl called Alice who goes looking for an adventure. Two years later, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was published - and sold out rapidly. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Julia McKenzie.

A romance in masks. From the book: I sat considering. And I might have remained in that strange trance, brooding, thinking idle thoughts, burning, muttering to myself, burning. But her offered hand woke me. I stood. The crowd shouted in surprise, as did the king. Yes, it felt good to move. No more straw man. I stood awake in a circle of fire. Time to move. What the hell had I been thinking? I leaped over the flames to land beside the beggar girl. I took the hand she offered, and though I only haltingly knew the steps, I stepped left with the music, expecting her to circle and step right. "What are you doing you nimrod?" she asked."Aren't we going to dance now?" I asked surprised. "Guards!" screamed the king. "Security! Get them! Arrest them! Taser them!""No, we are going to run for our lives now," she informed me gravely.Hands clasped, we ran for the exit. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Billie Fullford-Brown, Nick Mondelli.

Who's Your Caddy: Looping for the Great, Near Great, and Reprobates of Golf, Hörbuch, Digital, 324min
The funniest and most popular sportswriter in America abandons his desk at Sports Illustrated to caddy for some of the world’s most famous golfers, and some celebrity duffers, recounting it all in this hilarious and revealing look at the world of golf.Who knows a golfer best? Who’s with them every minute of every round, hears their muttering, knows whether they cheat? Their caddies, of course. So, sportswriter Rick Reilly figured that he could learn a lot about the players and their games by caddying, even though he had absolutely no idea how to do it. Amazingly, some of the best golfers in the world - including Jack Nicklaus, David Duval, Tom Lehman, John Daly, Casey Martin, and Jill McGill - agreed to let Reilly carry their bags at actual PGA and LPGA Tour events. To round out his portrait of the golfing life, Reilly also caddied at the Masters, persuaded Deepak Chopra and Donald Trump to use him as a caddy, accompanied high-rolling golf hustlers in Las Vegas around the course, and carried the bag for a blind golfer.In Who’s Your Caddy?, Reilly chronicles his experiences in the same inimitable style that makes his back-page column for Sports Illustrated a must-read for more than 20 million people every week. From his laugh-out-loud portrait of Deepak Chopra decomposing on the green, to his portraits of good ol’ boys who bet $100,000 a round, to his hilarious descriptions of his own ineptitude as a caddy, to his insights into what makes the greats of golf so great, Reilly combines a wicked wit with an expert’s eye in a most original and entertaining look at golf. Who’s Your Caddy? is the next best thing to a great round of golf. It is sure to delight low-handicappers, high-handicappers, and everyone in between. Language: English. Narrator: Grover Gardner.

Soul Strength , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 227min
Does controlled chaos describe your everyday life? Have the deep hurts of your past paralyzed your ability to forgive? Has your addiction tried to give you one last knockout punch to ensure you never again try another recovery? Or is it that your tank is just on empty from auto-pilot living and life without purpose? This amazing journey we're on dishes out unexpected twists and turns that jump out at us like thieves in the night, robbing us of every last ounce of joy and strength we possess. Dark days of turmoil and regret loom over us like ominous storm clouds that never give way to the sun. Minor setbacks that were once easy to maneuver can become mountains that all too often are impossible to scale. Let's face it, life can go from a whisper to a roar in a New York second leaving us reeling and muttering, or at times screaming at the top of our lungs, "I can't do this anymore!" If what I'm describing here is what your life looks like right now, be of good cheer. Believe it or not, it is here that there is hope and strength; here, where God's very voice cries out to you. It says, "There is an answer to your problem, and there is freedom from the bondage!" There is a peace in the midst of this raging storm! You are worth it! God says in His Word, there will be trials and temptations, struggles and setbacks, but He has the answer, in fact, He is the answer! There is something your Creator has placed in the deepest core of your being that, honestly, not many ever tap into, but it contains the very life you were meant to live! I call it Soul Strength! Imagine never having to stay in the constant season of sorrow or be taken by temptation. God wants you to be unleashed from the beast of burden that continues to hold you captive. This is not pie in the sky thinking or the good life every late night infomercial offers, and it's not the false hope sold on every corner packaged in self-help book. ungekürzt. Language: English.
