Yo-Yo Boing! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 369min

This groundbreaking novel, set in New York City during the 1990s, is guaranteed to be unlike any literary experience you have ever had. Acclaimed Puerto Rican author Giannina Braschi has crafted this creative and insightful examination of the Hispanic-American experience, taking on the voices of a variety of characters - painters, poets, sculptors, singers, writers, filmmakers, actors, directors, set designers, editors, and philosophers - to draw on their various cultural, economic, and geopolitical backgrounds to engage in lively cultural dialogue. Their topics include love, sex, food, music, books, inspiration, despair, infidelity, jobs, debt, war, and world news. Braschi’s discourse winds throughout the city’s public, corporate, and domestic settings, offering an inside look at the cultural conflicts that can occur when Anglo Americans and Latin Americans live, work, and play together. Hailed by Publishers Weekly as "a literary liberation", this energetic and comical novel celebrates the contradiction that makes contemporary American culture so wonderfully diverse. First published in Spanglish in 1998 to rave reviews, this is the first English audiobook of Yo-Yo Boing! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Adriana Sananes.

From the Top: Brief Transmissions from Tent Show Radio , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 252min

“I’m happy to go to the opera, but I should like to be allowed to wear steel-toed boots with my evening suit. I like to read Harper’s with a chaser of Varmint Hunter Magazine. Maybe that’s why I enjoy a good show under canvas. Here we sit, brain-deep in arts and culture, but we’re also just people hanging out in a tent, some of us wearing logging boots, a few of us wearing Birkenstocks, but best of all we’re breathing free fresh air filled with music.” From Scandihoovian Spanglish to snickering chickens, New York Times best-selling author and humorist Michael Perry navigates a wide range of topics in this collection of brief essays drawn from his weekly appearances on the nationally syndicated Tent Show Radio program. Fatherhood, dumpster therapy, dangerous wedding rings, Christmas trees, used cars, why you should have bacon in your stock portfolio, loggers in clogs - whatever the subject, Perry has a rare ability to touch both the funny bone and the heart. ungekürzt.

Johnny's Little Adventures: Learn Spanish with Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 86min

Learning should be fun. However, memorizing a list of vocabulary is rarely fun and usually ineffective. Even though you go through your flashcards a hundred times, by the next day, you’ve probably forgotten 50 percent of the vocabulary. But what if you could hear and see the vocabulary used over and over again in context? What if that context was a fun story that you would enjoy reading or listening to over and over again? These five short stories written in Spanglish, a mixture of English and Spanish, about a little boy who gets himself into all kinds of interesting situations, does just that. The Spanish vocabulary is used repeatedly throughout the stories in a way that enables the reader and/or listener to effortlessly learn the vocabulary through the context of the story. Isn’t this the way we learn our first language, through hearing the words repeated over and over again in a meaningful context? Six-year-old Johnny tells us funny stories from his childlike perspective that we can all relate to. Whether you or your children are learning Spanish, you will both enjoy doing so through these fun stories about Johnny’s little adventures. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Luke Vandergriff.

Fiebre Tropical: A Novel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 509min

Lit by the hormonal neon glow of Miami, this heady, multilingual debut novel follows a Colombian teenager’s coming of age and coming out as she plunges headfirst into lust and evangelism.Uprooted from her comfortable life in Bogotá, Colombia, into an ant-infested Miami townhouse, 15-year-old Francisca is miserable and friendless in her strange new city. Her alienation grows when her mother is swept up into an evangelical church, replete with Christian salsa, abstinent young dancers, and baptisms for the dead.But there, Francisca also meets the magnetic Carmen: opinionated and charismatic, head of the youth group, and the pastor’s daughter. As her mother’s mental health deteriorates and her grandmother descends into alcoholism, Francisca falls more and more intensely in love with Carmen. To get closer to her, Francisca turns to Jesus to be saved, even as their relationship hurtles toward a shattering conclusion.“Ebullient and assertive.... Francisca’s soul stinks up the place beautifully in Fiebre Tropical.” (The New York Times)"Juli Delgado Lopera - remember that name - is an irreverent, shameless and disarming new novelist. They are a merciless satirist in control of a pitch-perfect voice that makes an indisputable case for Spanglish as the perfect vehicle to express what we are really like right now." (NBC News)“A layered portrait of exile, sexual awakening, and family bonds.” (The Millions)“Fiebre Tropical crackles and hums like neon, embedding contagious energy in the coming-of-age story of Francisca.” (Them) ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Juliana Delgado Lopera. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/054628/bk_adbl_054628_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.
