    Daisy Miller , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 143min
    What the European male fails to understand is that the American Girl is innocent by definition, mythically innocent; and that her purity depends upon nothing she says or does." (Leslie Fiedler)When Frederick, an American expatriate traveling in Europe, meets the commonplace, newly rich Miller family from New York, he is charmed by the daughter, Daisy, and her "inscrutable combination of audacity and innocence". The Millers have no perception of the complex code that underlies behavior in European society, and Winterbourne is astonished at the girl's unworldliness and her mother's unconcern when Daisy accompanies him to the Castle of Chillon. Some months later, he meets the family in Rome, where Daisy has aroused suspicion among the American colony by being seen constantly with a third-rate Italian. Ostracized by former friends who think her "intrigue" has gone too far, Daisy denies that she is engaged to Giovanelli. Publicly, Winterbourne defends her as simply uncultivated, but privately, he hesitates. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Susan O'Malley.

    Paradise Lost , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 143min
    Sir Ian McKellen stars as Milton in this dramatised retelling of John Milton's epic poem about the fall of man. Milton's biblical masterpiece, first published in 1667, is one of English literature's most seminal works. Straddling three worlds - heaven, hell and earth - it tells the gripping story of fallen angel Satan's rebellion against God, his temptation of Adam and Eve and their subsequent expulsion from the Garden of Eden. Written to 'justify the ways of God to men', it aimed to show what caused mankind's fall and the consequences for the world, both bad and good. By reaching back to the beginning of time, Milton hoped to discover the events that had led to the political and societal upheaval of his own era - as well as using allegory to ask powerful questions about authority, government, tyranny and disobedience. In this brand-new dramatisation, Milton himself (Sir Ian McKellen) is the blind narrator grieving the loss of his wife, played by Frances Barber. Also starring Simon Russell Beale as Satan, and adapted by award-winning poet and broadcaster Michael Symmons Roberts, this enthralling drama is a vital piece of storytelling with striking parallels to contemporary events.  Cast and credits:     Milton........................Sir Ian McKellen  Elizabeth........................Frances Barber  Satan........................Simon Russell Beale  Beelzebub........................Jonathan Keeble  Adam........................Ashley Margolis  Eve........................Emily Pithon  Christ........................David Seddon  Raphael........................Conrad Nelson  God........................Russell Dixon  All other parts were played by members of the company.  Written by John Milton.

    Das rote Lachen, Hörbuch, Digital, 143min
    Die Bestie Mensch lernt nichts dazu - trotz Aufklärung und Religion wird die Vernunft täglich vergewaltigt. Die Ratten folgen ihren Rattenfängern und vergessen dabei jegliche Moral und Menschlichkeit. Von Flaggen und Ideologien verblendet, wird die Herde im Namen des Vaterlands und der Wahrheit in den Krieg gehetzt, aber wenn verordnete Euphorie auf gelebten Wahnsinn trifft, kommt selbst der dümmste Hund ins Grübeln. Der Held dieser Geschichte verliert im wahnwitzigen Taumel zwischen Leichenbergen und psychischer Belastung sein Bewusstsein und erwacht mit amputierten Beinen. Als er als Kriegsinvalide nach Hause geschickt wird, wechselt die Erzählperspektive im Moment seiner Heimkehr und der Bruder des Überlebenden schildert die abgestumpften und asozialen Verhaltensweisen der Zivilbevölkerung, für die er ebenso wenig eine Erklärung findet wie sein Bruder für die Sinnlosigkeit des Krieges. Jenseits der Vernunft herrscht der Mensch - das perverseste aller Tiere - und die Welt geht in Flammen auf. deutsch. Friedrich Frieden. https://samples.audible.de/bk/lily/001028/bk_lily_001028_sample.mp3.

    Doctor Who - Jubilee, Hörbuch, Digital, 143min
    The story that became Dalek on TV. Although the televised episode in 2005 (starring Christopher Eccleston) ended up being very different in many important ways, this is the core of the idea that Russell T Davies wanted writer Rob Shearman to develop. Find out how it all started.... Hurrah! The deadly Daleks are back! Yes, those loveable tinpot tyrants have another plan to invade our world. Maybe this time because they want to drill to the Earth's core. Or maybe because they just feel like it. And when those pesky pepperpots are in town, there is one thing you can be sure of. There will be nonstop, high-octane mayhem in store. And plenty of exterminations! But never fear. The Doctor is on hand to sort them out. Defender of the Earth, saviour of us all. With his beautiful assistant, Evelyn Smythe, by his side, he will fight once again to uphold the beliefs of the English Empire. All hail the glorious English Empire! Now, that sounds like a jubilee worth celebrating, does it not? Written by Robert Shearman and directed by Nicholas Briggs and Robert Shearman. Language: English. Narrator: Colin Baker, Maggie Stables, Martin Jarvis, Nicholas Briggs. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/bgfn/000162/bk_bgfn_000162_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Wagons West , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 143min
    It's early springtime on the ranch, and Hank is going through the usual motions of making sure that a warm spring arrives safely: singing songs about it, barking faithfully each morning, and helping the cowboys with their work around the ranch. However, in the midst of a particularly hard day's nap, he receives a report that his little birdy friend, Madame Moonshine, is in danger of being eaten by Pete the Barncat! Naturally, Hank springs into action to save her, but a misstep brings the wrath of Sally May down on his head, and Hank must flee the scene of the rescue and travel west on the Oregon Trail with Little Alfred. Later, when a freak storm causes the creek to rise, stranding Little Alfred far from the house, Hank must rely on his instincts and clever wits and perhaps a little help from Madame Mooshine to keep them both safe and get Alfred back to his mother! ungekürzt.

    Hexen und Hexenverfolgung, Hörbuch, Digital, 143min
    Auf der Grundlage neuester Forschungen entwerfen Walter Rummel und Rita Voltmer ein differenziertes Bild. Sie zeigen auf, dass das Thema ein frühneuzeitliches und kaum ein mittelalterliches Phänomen ist. Dass Hexenverfolgung sich zwar mehrheitlich gegen Frauen richtete, doch Männer auch betroffen waren. Dass sie zwar von Theologen und den Kirchen aller Konfessionen unterstützt, doch wesentlich von Juristen legitimiert und von weltlichen Gerichten ausgerichtet wurde. Und dass sie schließlich den stärksten Antrieb von Seiten der Bevölkerung erfuhr, welche auf diese Weise ihre internen Konflikte austrug. Die historische Wirklichkeit der Hexenverfolgung wird hier auf ein solides, neues Fundamt gestellt. deutsch. Kerstin Hoffmann. https://samples.audible.de/bk/xaud/000046/bk_xaud_000046_sample.mp3.

    Lost Angel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 143min
    Lost Angel is a collection of interwoven short stories. Each story depicts a person that is lost in their own world and dealing with issues that are unique to their perspective. As the characters become overwhelmed by their internal struggles, they become part of the big picture. Though each short story stands on its own, they are a part of a larger narrative that includes the poems. Every word is related to the fabric of this tale, and as a whole, this novella is the story of defeat, triumph, and the search for meaning. This novella aims to express a progressive vision of the world. Full list of narrators: Benjamin Blue Abben, Cyrus Emerson, Ray Manzarek, Jessica Robinson, Tom Weiner, Raymond Scully, Lucia Sherman, Ryan Farmer, and Paul Michael Garcia. A 2013 HEAR Now Festival Presenter A 2014 Native American Music Award Finalist for Best Spoken Word Introduction with Ray Manzarek, cofounder of The Doors "This collection of interconnected short stories is beautifully captured by a small cast of narrators. Tom Weiner portrays the dark spirit of a troubled serial killer known as the Freeway Slasher in the first story. His grim tone puts listeners on the edge of their seats throughout. Lucia Sherman steals the show with an expertly underplayed performance in which she offers the chilling character of Damon, a mysterious hitchhiker. The stories work well with each other, and the selection of narrators is perfect, each offering a new chapter to the tale in his or her own dramatic way. Emerson creates a thrilling ride down Interstate 40." (L. B. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine) ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Dragnet Vol. 12, Hörbuch, Digital, 143min
    From 1949 to 1957, Dragnet pioneered new levels of realism on radio. Every crime investigated by Sergeant Joe Friday was taken from the actual case files of the Los Angeles Police Department, with only "the names changed to protect the innocent". This collection features five episodes of the classic series:Big Informant (3/22/1953)Big Dream (3/29/1953)Big Chet (4/5/1953)Big Compulsion (4/12/1953)Big Rip (4/19/1953)These broadcasts feature multi-layered sound effects; the actors used accurate police lingo, abbreviations, and penal codes; and the show didn't shy away from stories about heinous crimes or stories that had unhappy endings. Created and produced by Jack Webb, Dragnet was much more than "just the facts". Language: English. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/rt/radi/000551/rt_radi_000551_sample.mp3.
