    'We-have-a-house-in-the-country?'. Lena nodded solemnly. 'Where?'. I almost shouted, briefly rattling the table. 'No, wait, don't tell me - it's Todi in Umbria, right? The old manor house, the one with the lemon groves'! 'Alt-Globnitz'. 'Alt-Globnitz?'. Suddenly I felt cold. 'Alt-Globnitz. It's a really nice place. You will love it'. In a desperate attempt to save his relationship with girlfriend, Lena, and take a break from the world of journalism, Germany correspondent Roger Boyes agrees to make a great escape from the easy urban lifestyle of Berlin and decamp to the countryside.

Enter unhelpful Harry and his Trinidadian chef cousin, a mad Scot to advise them on re-branding Brandenburg, some suicidal frogs, and a posse of mad tourists.

    People often ask me, "How did Louie Bertrand become a famous Paris sleuth?" For our first interview, Louie Bertrand agreed to meet me at a café at one o'clock in the afternoon for "le petit dejeuner." This should have been my first clue, for it shouted this artist turned sleuth was a "night bloomer." After our first night out together my head was still spinning. I pleaded to his amused face, "Tell me again how you and Mrs. Duchesney met... but first, please, tell me where I was last night." Monsieur Bertrand smiled, poured us both a coffee, and began, "We met during her first summer in Europe, when she was looking for something or someone to give her young life meaning. I could not have imagined then that our lives would become intertwined for thirty more summers. It was not logical in any sense that she, seventeen and more child than woman, would have such a profound influence on me a man of thirty." From my interviews, I would learn that Louie Bertrand and his sleuthing partner Mrs. Duchesney were as different as...Well, as different as Paris in the daytime and Paris at night.  ungekürzt.

The wyvern was already following Nûd’s recommendation and gaining altitude. Eynon and Merry did likewise until they were 100 feet up and could witness the terrifying scene unfolding below.The floor of the quarry buckled and split, revealing a huge, green-scaled monstrosity. Rocks from the quarry floor were sliding off the beast’s back, crashing down into piles of jagged stone. A cloud of greenish dust rose from the quarry as boulders the size of milk cows sailed skyward, tossed up by snapping layers of stone.Then, the great beast’s long neck came free, releasing a wedge-shaped head with a mouth large enough to swallow them all in one bite and teeth the size of scimitars. The head moved left and right, using long-dormant muscles. Intelligent dark green eyes with vertical black pupils blinked in the sunlight. Their depths seemed to spin in a hypnotic pattern.“Well,” said the great green dragon. “Is it time?” ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter Kenny.

    Mindset and Psychology of Success , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 46min
    When I was a young writer, only beginning, something happened that changed my entire life. I had been obsessed with knowing how folks deal with failures, and I chose to examine it by observing how students grapple with challenging issues. I brought kids one at a time into some space in their college, made them more comfortable, then gave them a set of puzzles to solve. The initial ones were rather simple, but the upcoming ones were tough. As the pupils grunted, perspired, and so forth, I saw their plans and probed exactly what they were feeling and thinking. I expected differences between kids in the way they dealt with the problem, but I found something that I never anticipated. Confronted with all the puzzles that are hard, one 10-year-old boy pulled his chair up, rubbed his palms together, smacked, his lips and shouted out, "I really like a challenge!" Still another, perspiring away on those puzzles, appeared with a happy expression and stated with power, "You understand, I had been hoping this could be enlightening!" What is wrong with them? I wondered. I thought you dealt with disappointment or you did not deal with failure. I never believed anyone adored failure. Were those alien kids or were they something else? ungekürzt.

    The Truth about Me: A Hijra Life Story , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 616min
    He got stared at a lot. People asked out loud - some out of curiosity, others out of malice - whether we were men or women or number nines or devadasis. Several men made bold to touch us, on our backs, on our shoulders. Some attempted to grab our breasts. Original or duplicate? They shouted and hooted. At such moments, I felt despair and wondered if there would ever be a way for us to live with dignity and make a decent living. Revathi was born a boy, but felt and behaved like a girl. In telling her life story, Revathi evokes marvellously the deep unease of being in the wrong body that plagued her from childhood. To be true to herself, to escape the constant violence visited upon her by her family and community, the village-born Revathi ran away to Delhi to join a house of hijras. Her life became an incredible series of dangerous physical and emotional journeys to become a woman - and to find love. The Truth about Me is the unflinchingly, courageous, and moving autobiography of a hijra who fought ridicule, persecution and violence, both within her home and outside, to find a life of dignity. ungekürzt.

    Prudence Crandall , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 322min
    In the quiet little town of Canterbury, Connecticut, Prudence Crandall is living her dream as a teacher. She has opened her own school for young ladies and is enjoying great success from the start. Yet all of her good fortune is jeopardized when Prudence admits a young African American student named Sarah Harris. What unfurls is the true and stirring story of Prudence's faith and courage as she combats the deep-seated prejudices of the town and offers an opportunity for a life-changing education to eager African American female students. "The idea of having such a school is insupportable-reckless hostility-determined to thwart-property no longer safe-break down natural distinction between black and white.... A dire calamity faces Canterbury-shall we surrender to any other nation or race?" "No! No! No!" the people shouted, rising in a body to give their words more force. Elizabeth Yates masterfully chronicles the efforts of the people of Canterbury to force the school's closure through intimidation, vandalism, slander, and legal persecution, as well as Prudence's truly courageous perseverance against such deplorable aggression. Through it all, Prudence stands a stalwart warrior of what is right and good. This story of an admirable fight for educational equality and human dignity is one that continues to inspire and uplift. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stephanie Boyd.
