    Max , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 326min
    It's the 1980s. Max is a 40-something neurosurgeon with a secret: he has discovered a way to induce suicide in laboratory rats. And now he's going to track down the band of Nazis who killed his father, and make them the first human subjects of his new technique. That is, if he is able to navigate his Compulsive Bibliophilia Disorder, which is tearing down his New York City apartment from the inside, his sexual obsession with frizzy-haired, denim-clad student social workers called Arlene, his supremely attractive Aunt Florence, and his Penile Paradox, which kicks in as soon as he encounters any woman he considers unattainable. Revenge, loss and frustrated desire are never far out of the picture in this darkly comic tale of one man's journey to oblivion. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: John Chancer.

    Under the Cover of Chaos: Trump and the Battle for the American Right , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 354min
    Are Donald Trump's irrationality, cruelty and bombast symptoms of his personality? Is the chaos surrounding him a sign of his incompetence? Are his populism, illiberalism and nationalism just cynical appeals to existing feelings of abandonment, resentment and rage? Lawrence Grossberg shows that the truth is bigger and more frightening. Locating Trumpism in the long struggle among traditional conservatism, the new right and the reactionary right, he suggests that the chaos is far more significant and strategic...and dangerous. Taking the arguments of the reactionary right seriously, he projects a possible nightmarish future: a cultural nationalism governed by a popular corporatocracy. He lays bare how contemporary political struggles are being shaped by a changing national landscape of moods and feelings, marked by a growing absolutism of judgment and belief and new forms of anxiety, alienation and narcissism. ungekürzt.
