Title: On Her Own: A Novel Author: Lihi Lapid Narrator: Emily Lawrence Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 2 minutes Release date: March 19, 2024 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: A moving, page-turning story of two families in crisis and the unexpected places from which love can grow. ''The true mystery Lapid seeks to unveil is one of the most burning questions of our time: What does it mean to be a woman in today’s world? On Her Own is a book you will want all the women in your life to read.'' —Ayelet Gundar-Goshen, award-winning author of Waking Lions Nina, a teenage runaway, wakes up in the unfamiliar stairwell of a Tel Aviv apartment in a torn minidress. As her memory starts to resurface—the abusive older man she’s running away from, the crime she witnessed—she knows one thing: she needs to find a place to hide. When one of the building’s tenants, Carmela, a lonely old widow suffering from memory loss, mistakes Nina for her granddaughter she hasn’t seen in years, Nina jumps at the opportunity for a safe haven. Soon, the two strangers become each other’s lifeline as Nina settles into the apartment with sweet, reassuring Carmela. Meanwhile, Irina, a Russian immigrant, is living a parent’s worst nightmare: her only daughter has gone missing. She knows Nina got involved with the wrong men and will do anything to find her. Across the ocean, Itamar feels that something is happening to his mom, Carmela. The guilt over having left Israel for his pursuit of the American dream stirs childhood memories in him and a longing for the family that once was complete. Set between the eve of Passover and Israel’s Independence Day, On Her Own is a tense and immersive psychological read about two families looking for redemption and the transformative bonds between strangers.

Title: The Tatami Time Machine Blues: A Novel Author: Tomihiko Morimi Narrator: Kurt Kanazawa Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 43 minutes Release date: November 7, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: In the boiling heat of summer, a broken remote control for an air conditioner threatens life as we know it in this reality-bending, time-slipping sequel to The Tatami Galaxy. During a scorching August in Kyoto, our protagonist and his worst friend, Ozu, are locked in a glaring contest in a four-and-a-half-tatami-mat room. Ozu has spilled Coke on the air conditioner’s remote control—the only AC in Shimogamo Yusuisuiso, their famously shabby sweatbox of an apartment building. Vengeful and despairing, our protagonist discusses countermeasures with his secret crush, the reliably blunt Akashi, when Tamura, a strange young man with a bad haircut, appears. Tamura claims to be a time traveler from 25 years in the future, and shows off the time machine he uses to travel. Our protagonist has a brilliant idea: the sweetest revenge would be to go back one day in time and retrieve the functioning remote control. His simple fix is complicated by Ozu and several others who are also eager to take a ride back in time. But in attempting to alter the past, our protagonist foresees the world's extinction. Even more troublingly, Akashi mentions she’s bringing someone to the upcoming bonfire . . . and it's not him. Only one thing remains certain: it's going to be a very long month. Obliteration? Salvation? Coca-Cola? Castella cake? What does the time machine hold for our (not quite) heroes? It all depends on which one gets there first.

Title: Edenville: A Novel Author: Sam Rebelein Narrator: Charlie Thurston Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 36 minutes Release date: October 3, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: An unsettling, immersive, and wildly entertaining debut novel from an exciting new voice in horror for fans of Paul Tremblay and Stephen Graham Jones. ''Edenville is a delightfully gooey blend of gothic, cosmic, folk and body horror churned by a sharp-bladed critique of academia.''— Lucy A. Snyder, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of Sister, Maiden, Monster After publishing his debut novel, The Shattered Man, to disappointing sales and reviews, Campbell P. Marion is struggling to find inspiration for a follow-up. When Edenville College invites him to join as a writer-in-residence, he’s convinced that his bad luck has finally taken a turn. His girlfriend Quinn isn’t so sure—she grew up near Edenville and has good reasons for not wanting to move back. Cam disregards her skepticism and accepts the job, with Quinn reluctantly following along. But there’s something wrong in Edenville. Despite the charming old ladies milling about Main Street and picturesque sunflowers dotting the sidewalks, poison lurks beneath the surface. As a series of strange and ominous events escalate among Edenville and its residents, Cam and Quinn find themselves entangled in a dark and disturbing history. Told with equal parts horror and humor, Edenville explores the urban legends that fuel our nightmares and the ways in which ambition can overshadow our best instincts. Sam Rebelein is an exciting, sharp new voice, sure to terrify readers for years to come. “The mundane horrors of rural and academic living collide with pure cosmic weirdness in Sam Rebelein’s Edenville. Not since Jason Pargin’s John Dies at the End have I been so horrified and grossed out by a book…I could say more, but honestly, the less you know about this book, the better.

One night, without warning, they find a beautiful terrace hidden in their closet. It wasn’t there before, and it seems to only appear when their friend Stephanie visits.

Their romance has a rhythm private and unique to them: when he is away on military missions, they write love letters; when he returns home for weekends, they are entwined and inseparable. Allie is embraced by Eyal’s family, and their acceptance is very important to her. But when Eyal returns home from an invasion of Gaza, to which he has a surprising emotional response, Allie has changed so radically that her betrayal of her lover feels both shocking and tragic. The Lover is a provocative, immersive, gorgeously written love story reminiscent of Marguerite Duras’ classic novel. Both books portray a seductive love affair in a colonial setting, atmospheric and rich with foreign detail, that raises unsettling questions about inequality, conflict, intensity, war, and danger. At once beautiful and disturbing, propulsive and poignant, The Lover will entrance readers and hold them spellbound.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/640024Tue, 01 Aug 2023 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/640024 to listen full audiobooks.

No one knows Margo’s real name. Her colleagues and patrons at a small-town public library know only her middle-aged normalcy, congeniality, and charm. They have no reason to suspect that she is, in fact, a former nurse with a trail of premature deaths in her wake.

Never go back into the woods. Never go back and never look back… Midsummer’s Eve. Bonfires dot the English countryside and flicker in the ancient Forest of Dean as costumed revelers dance and drink the night away. But when the sun rises, a local girl, Maddie Friar, has vanished, last seen heading to a party in a forest commune called “The Clearing.” Her sister Adele reports her missing but the local police say Maddie was a known party girl and probably ran off with some boy, or maybe the “Cinderman” got her, referring to a local legend of a forest spirit said to haunt the woods in search of a lost daughter. Eminent criminologist and academic Dr. Laughton Rees also knows about the Cinderman. She has found dozens of historical missing persons cases in these woods, all women, all attributed to this legend. But she doesn’t believe in legends; she believes in facts, so she heads to the forest and, with help from Adele, starts questioning everyone, from the mysterious Earl, lord of the crumbling abbey in the heart of the forest, to the charismatic leader of The Clearing. But as Laughton slowly begins to unravel the legend of the Cinderman and realizes it is bound by blood to Adele and Maddies’ dark past, she also discovers too late that the truth is far uglier, and far more dangerous, than any mythical monster.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/631130Tue, 11 Jul 2023 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/631130 to listen full audiobooks.

Her reputation is destroyed, her best friend is now her fiercest rival, and the dream she’s worked for her entire life—becoming a prima ballerina—will never be realized. She vows not to ever make the same mistake again. But when renowned dancer Alessandro Russo joins NAB as a guest artist for the season, Sylvie is magnetically drawn to him. Torn between fear and attraction, she finds herself mentally unraveling but also artistically blossoming as she taps into emotions she’d buried long ago. Caught in a bewildering spiral, she can either let the wounds of the past destroy her or find a way to be reborn.]]>605cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-spare-room-a-novel-by-andrea-bartz--65279465https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/631018 to listen full audiobooks.

'Part thriller, part Hollywood satire, Lucky Dogs is a brash, sometimes heartbreaking saga in which trauma and self-preservation converge across decades and continents. This is Helen Schulman's best novel yet.'—Jennifer Egan, best-selling author of A Visit from the Goon Squad and The Candy House On a sultry summer night in Paris, two women meet in line at an ice cream kiosk on the Ile de la Cité.

Why is Athena asking her so many probing questions about her foundation—as well as about her past? And could Sloane be imagining the sultry looks between Athena and her new husband?

Charlie, with his big feelings and grand proclamations of love, captivates her completely. But there are peculiarities of his life—he’s older than her but lives with his parents; he meets up with a friend at odd hours of the night; he sleeps a lot and always seems to be coming down with something. He confesses that he’s a recovering heroin addict, but he promises Leah that he’s never going to use again. Leah's friends and family are concerned. As she finds herself getting deeper into an isolated relationship, one of manipulation and denial, the truth about Charlie feels as blurry as their time together. Even when Charlie’s behavior becomes increasingly erratic, when he starts to make Leah feel unsafe, she can’t help but feel that what exists between them is destined. Charlie is wide open, boyish, and unbearably handsome. The bounds of Leah’s own pain—and love—are so deep that she can’t see him spiraling into self-destruction. Hanna Halperin writes with aching vulnerability and intimacy, sharply attuned to Leah’s desire for an all-consuming, compulsive connection.

Title: The House Is on Fire Author: Rachel Beanland Narrator: Ruffin Prentiss Iii, Rachel Beanland, Joniece Abbott-Pratt, Michael Crouch, Andi Arndt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 28 minutes Release date: April 4, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.11 of Total 9 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: A “wildly entertaining” (NPR), “gripping” (The Washington Post) work of historical fiction about an incendiary tragedy that shocked a young nation and tore apart a community in a single night, from the author of Florence Adler Swims Forever. Richmond, Virginia 1811. It’s the height of the winter social season, the General Assembly is in session, and many of Virginia’s gentleman planters, along with their wives and children, have made the long and arduous journey to the capital in hopes of whiling away the darkest days of the year. At the city’s only theater, the Charleston-based Placide & Green Company puts on two plays a night to meet the demand of a populace that’s done looking for enlightenment at the front of a church. On the night after Christmas, the theater is packed with more than six hundred holiday revelers. In the third-floor boxes sits newly widowed Sally Henry Campbell, who is glad for any opportunity to relive the happy times she shared with her husband. One floor away, in the colored gallery, Cecily Patterson doesn’t give a whit about the play but is grateful for a four-hour reprieve from a life that has recently gone from bad to worse. Backstage, young stagehand Jack Gibson hopes that, if he can impress the theater’s managers, he’ll be offered a permanent job with the company. And on the other side of town, blacksmith Gilbert Hunt dreams of one day being able to bring his wife to the theater, but he’ll have to buy her freedom first. When the theater goes up in flames in the middle of the performance, Sally, Cecily, Jack, and Gilbert make a series of split-second decisions that will not only affect their own lives but those of countless others. And in the days following the fire, as news of the disaster spreads across the United States, the paths of these four people will become forever intertwined. Based on the true story of Richmond’s theater fire, The House Is on Fire is a “stunning” (Jeannette Walls, New York Times bestselling author of The Glass Castle), “all-consuming exploration” (E! News) that offers proof that sometimes, in the midst of great tragedy, we are offered our most precious—and fleeting—chances at redemption.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/601020Tue, 04 Apr 2023 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/601020 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Commitment: A novel Author: Mona Simpson Narrator: Xe Sands Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 33 minutes Release date: March 21, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: A NEW YORKER AND LOS ANGELES TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR • A masterful and engrossing novel about a single mother’s collapse and the fate of her family after she enters a California state hospital in the 1970s. “A sweeping family epic that took me from one American coast to another…Simpson is so attuned to the family heart.” —Weike Wang, author of Joan Is Okay When Diane Aziz drives her oldest son, Walter, from Los Angeles to college at UC Berkeley, it will be her last parental act before falling into a deep depression. A single mother who maintains a wishful belief that her children can attain all the things she hasn’t, she’s worked hard to secure their future in caste-driven 1980s Los Angeles, gaining them illegal entry to an affluent public school. When she enters a state hospital, her closest friend tries to keep the children safe and their mother’s dreams for them alive. At Berkeley, Walter discovers a passion for architecture just as he realizes his life as a student may need to end for lack of funds. Back home in LA, his sister, Lina, who works in an ice-cream parlor while her wealthy classmates are preparing for Ivy league schools, wages a high stakes gamble to go there with them. And Donny, the little brother everybody loves, begins to hide in plain sight, coding, gaming, and drifting towards a life on the beach, where he falls into an escalating relationship with drugs. Moving from Berkeley and Los Angeles to New York and back again, this is a story about one family trying to navigate the crisis of their lives, a crisis many know first-hand in their own families or in those of their neighbors. A resonant novel about family and duty and the attendant struggles that come when a parent falls ill, Commitment honors the spirit of fragile, imperfect mothers and the under-chronicled significance of friends, in determining the lives of our children left on their own.

But the dead man’s sister, Cate, doesn’t believe Eric took his own life and is determined to get to the truth. Traveling to Egypt she begins to piece together her brother’s life in Cairo with the help of a handsome, young, gay Egyptian man named Omar, who yearns to escape the brutality of his nation’s harsh, restrictive government. Unfortunately, Cate’s quest raises more questions—and problems—than she ever imagined, as she takes on not only the arms company’s top brass but the Egyptian military, secret police, and a slew of American expats with their own reasons to keep the dead buried once and for all. Soon she’s in over her head, and it’s not clear if either she or Omar will get out alive. This riveting thriller of set in loud, boisterous Cairo of Americans lost and found showcases Bollen’s depth of characterization and haunting descriptive powers.

Though the circumstances surrounding Thalia’s death and the conviction of the school’s athletic trainer, Omar Evans, are hotly debated online, Bodie prefers—needs—to let sleeping dogs lie.

Title: Playhouse: A novel Author: Richard Bausch Narrator: Lee Osorio Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 45 minutes Release date: February 14, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: From the prize-winning fiction writer Richard Bausch (“A master of the novel as well as the story . . . Effortlessly engaging” —Sven Birkerts, The New York Times), a sharp, affecting, masterly new novel about a close-knit theater community in Memphis and one turbulent, transformative production of King Lear. As renovations begin at the Shakespeare Theater of Memphis, life for the core members of the company seems to be falling into disarray. Their trusted director has just retired, and theater manager Thaddeus Deerforth—staring down forty and sensing a rift growing slowly between himself and his wife, Gina—dreads the arrival of an imperious, inscrutable visiting director. Claudette, struggling to make ends meet as an actor and destabilized by family troubles, is getting frequent calls from her ex-boyfriend—and also the narcissistic, lecherous television actor who has been recruited to play King Lear in their fall production. Also invited to the cast is Malcolm Ruark, a disgraced TV anchor muddling through the fallout of a scandal involving his underaged niece—and suddenly in an even more precarious situation when the same niece, now eighteen, is cast to play Cordelia. As tensions onstage and off build toward a breaking point, the bonds among the intimately drawn characters are put to extraordinary tests—and the fate of the theater itself may even be on the line. Deftly weaving together the points of view of Thaddeus, Claudette, and Malcolm, and utterly original in its incorporation of Shakespeare’s timeless drama, Playhouse is an unforgettable story of men and women, human frailty, art, and redemption—a work of inimitable imaginative prowess by one of our most renowned storytellers.

Title: Hungry Ghosts: A Novel Author: Kevin Jared Hosein Narrator: Don Warrington Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 38 minutes Release date: February 7, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: LONGLISTED FOR THE SWANSEA UNIVERSITY DYLAN THOMAS PRIZE WINNER OF THE WALTER SCOTT PRIZE FOR HISTORICAL FICTION “This is a deeply impressive book, and I think an important one. Its intensity, its narrative attack, the fascinations of its era and setting, make it impossible to tear the attention away. Energy and inventiveness distinguish every page.” — Hilary Mantel From an unforgettable new voice in Caribbean literature, a sweeping story of two families colliding in 1940s Trinidad—and a chilling mystery that shows how interconnected their lives truly are  Trinidad in the 1940s, nearing the end of American occupation and British colonialism. On a hill overlooking Bell Village sits the Changoor farm, where Dalton and Marlee Changoor live in luxury unrecognizable to those who reside in the farm’s shadow. Down below is the Barrack, a ramshackle building of wood and tin, divided into rooms occupied by whole families. Among these families are the Saroops—Hans, Shweta, and their son, Krishna, all three born of the barracks. Theirs are hard lives of backbreaking work, grinding poverty, devotion to faith, and a battle against nature and a social structure designed to keep them where they are. But when Dalton goes missing and Marlee’s safety is compromised, farmhand Hans is lured by the promise of a handsome stipend to move to the farm as a watchman. As the mystery of Dalton’s disappearance unfolds, the lives of the wealthy couple and those who live in the barracks below become insidiously entwined, their community changed forever and in shocking ways. A searing and singular novel of religion, class, family, and historical violence, and rooted in Trinidad’s wild pastoral landscape and inspired by oral storytelling traditions, Hungry Ghosts is deeply resonant of its time and place while evoking the roots and ripple effects of generational trauma and linked histories; the lingering resentments, sacrifices, and longings that alter destinies; and the consequences of powerlessness.

Title: Hungry Ghosts: A Novel Author: Kevin Jared Hosein Narrator: Don Warrington Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 38 minutes Release date: February 7, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: LONGLISTED FOR THE SWANSEA UNIVERSITY DYLAN THOMAS PRIZE WINNER OF THE WALTER SCOTT PRIZE FOR HISTORICAL FICTION “This is a deeply impressive book, and I think an important one. Its intensity, its narrative attack, the fascinations of its era and setting, make it impossible to tear the attention away. Energy and inventiveness distinguish every page.” — Hilary Mantel From an unforgettable new voice in Caribbean literature, a sweeping story of two families colliding in 1940s Trinidad—and a chilling mystery that shows how interconnected their lives truly are  Trinidad in the 1940s, nearing the end of American occupation and British colonialism. On a hill overlooking Bell Village sits the Changoor farm, where Dalton and Marlee Changoor live in luxury unrecognizable to those who reside in the farm’s shadow. Down below is the Barrack, a ramshackle building of wood and tin, divided into rooms occupied by whole families. Among these families are the Saroops—Hans, Shweta, and their son, Krishna, all three born of the barracks. Theirs are hard lives of backbreaking work, grinding poverty, devotion to faith, and a battle against nature and a social structure designed to keep them where they are. But when Dalton goes missing and Marlee’s safety is compromised, farmhand Hans is lured by the promise of a handsome stipend to move to the farm as a watchman. As the mystery of Dalton’s disappearance unfolds, the lives of the wealthy couple and those who live in the barracks below become insidiously entwined, their community changed forever and in shocking ways. A searing and singular novel of religion, class, family, and historical violence, and rooted in Trinidad’s wild pastoral landscape and inspired by oral storytelling traditions, Hungry Ghosts is deeply resonant of its time and place while evoking the roots and ripple effects of generational trauma and linked histories; the lingering resentments, sacrifices, and longings that alter destinies; and the consequences of powerlessness. Lyrically told and rendered with harrowing beauty, Hungry Ghosts is a stunning piece of storytelling and an affecting mystery, from a blazingly talented writer.]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/strange-loops-a-novel-by-liz-harmer--65279480https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/638822 to listen full audiobooks.

A fractured portrait of a darkly riveting sibling relationship from the inside out, Strange Loops is an electrifying, intelligent and emotionally charged second novel from an award-winning young literary star on the rise. Francine and her twin brother Philip share a powerful bond in childhood that fades as they became young adults. When Philip unexpectedly becomes intensely religious, his sister decides to join his Christian youth group and soon becomes infatuated with the youth pastor.

Later, as an adult, even as the storm clouds of resentment and mutual betrayal between her and her brother still churn around them, Francine finds herself both stirred and alienated by her attraction to an ex-student who has recently reappeared in her life, making her feel caught in a condition of perpetual departure toward the same inevitable calamity. Crackling with the intensity and plot twists of a dark domestic thriller but bursting with ideas and distinguished by Harmer's penetrating eye for the messiest and most meaningful human relationships--all rendered in lean, sharp pose, Strange Loops shocks, rattles, and entertains while asking vital questions about the paradoxes that make us who we are, and probes the possibility of love outside of any will to possess or be possessed.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/638822Tue, 31 Jan 2023 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/638822 to listen full audiobooks.

'Heart-rending and heart-stopping.' —Alix Ohlin, author of Dual Citizens '...lays bare the truths of mental illness...epically unforgettable.' —Jen Sookfong Lee, author of Superfan 'Deeply raw...Insightful and unsparing, this is an important book.' —Zoe Whittall, author of The Best Kind of People Content Note: this is an important book and a powerful depiction of extreme Bipolar disorder. It deals with sensitive subject matter, and we encourage readers to take care of themselves and their mental health while reading. Last Winter is the story of a child who might not survive the heartbreak of her father’s death and a mother who struggles to both parent and manage her grief in the grips of a Bipolar crisis. Fiona and Gus’s marriage has veered off course. Fiona’s mental health is shaky at best, and is now further strained under the weight of a transgression that she would like to both forget and repeat. Gus, a pro snowboarder turned backcountry guide, is exhausted by Fiona's mood swings and her ambivalence about their relationship, but mostly by the impact of her erratic behaviour on their eight-year-old daughter, Ruby. Ruby loves them both, but has a much closer relationship with her father, and has stopped talking in the face of the tensions between her parents. In the midst of this marital crisis, Gus takes Ruby’s class on an overnight trip into the wilderness, where Ruby is one of only two children to survive the avalanche that kills the others, including her beloved father. While Fiona’s mental health is unravelled further by grief, Ruby is flattened by Gus’s loss. After the search ends with no sign of her father, Ruby is determined to find him herself, using the survival skills he taught her and believing that he must still be alive. Her trek back into the snow sets off events that stretches her own resourcefulness and her mother's fragile coping skills to the breaking point. Atmospheric and deftly told with an economy of words and a finely tuned gaze on the small moments that build up to an inexorable and shocking end, Last Winter is a contemporary drama that will grip readers both for the story and for the vibrant portrayal of the complexities of family life.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/588812Tue, 24 Jan 2023 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/588812 to listen full audiobooks.

Resulta imposible dejar de leer». Eduardo Lago, Babelia «Qué gloriosa canción de ocaso que es esta novela. Es rica y extraña, volátil y melancólica.

Seventeen-year-old Bret is a senior at the exclusive Buckley prep school when a new student arrives with a mysterious past. Robert Mallory is bright, handsome, charismatic, and shielding a secret from Bret and his friends even as he becomes a part of their tightly knit circle. Bret’s obsession with Mallory is equaled only by his increasingly unsettling preoccupation with the Trawler, a serial killer on the loose who seems to be drawing ever closer to Bret and his friends, taunting them—and Bret in particular—with grotesque threats and horrific, sharply local acts of violence. The coincidences are uncanny, but they are also filtered through the imagination of a teenager whose gifts for constructing narrative from the filaments of his own life are about to make him one of the most explosive literary sensations of his generation. Can he trust his friends—or his own mind—to make sense of the danger they appear to be in? Thwarted by the world and by his own innate desires, buffeted by unhealthy fixations, he spirals into paranoia and isolation as the relationship between the Trawler and Robert Mallory hurtles inexorably toward a collision.  Set against the intensely vivid and nostalgic backdrop of pre-Less Than Zero L.A., The Shards is a mesmerizing fusing of fact and fiction, the real and the imagined, that brilliantly explores the emotional fabric of Bret’s life at seventeen—sex and jealousy, obsession and murderous rage.

А потому жизнь Шарлотты и Шона О'Киф состоит из бессонных ночей, растущих счетов, унизительной жалости других родителей и навязчивых мыслей о том, что, если… Что, если бы Шарлотта знала о болезни дочери до ее рождения? Что, если бы все было иначе? Что, если бы их любимая Уиллоу никогда не родилась? И насколько ценна каждая человеческая жизнь? И вот в мучительной попытке свести концы с концами, чтобы покрыть расходы на лечение дочери, Шарлотта решается на отчаянный шаг. Она предъявляет иск о неправомерном рождении своему врачу, не предупредившему ее заранее, что ребенок родится с тяжелой инвалидностью. В случае удачного исхода дела денежные выплаты смогут обеспечить уход за Уиллоу до конца жизни девочки. Перед Шарлоттой возникает сложная морально-этическая проблема, ведь врач, с которым она решает судиться, ее лучшая подруга… «Обращаться с осторожностью» — это берущий за душу роман, в котором поднимается проблема ценности человеческой жизни и того, на что мы готовы пойти, чтобы ее защитить.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/spanish-la-dama-del-lago-by-laura-lippman--65279526https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653323 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - La dama del lago Author: Laura Lippman Narrator: Jane Santos Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 52 minutes Release date: January 12, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: La nueva novela de Laura Lippman, una de las autoras más emblemáticas del noir estadounidense. Baltimore, 1966. Maddie, madre y esposa perfecta, decide una noche, de forma impulsiva, plantarlo todo y convertirse en periodista, dispuesta a cumplir sus sueños de juventud. Cuando el cuerpo de una joven aparece en un lago, Maddie ve la ocasión de hacerse un nombre y arrojar luz sobre este crimen, a pesar de la indiferencia general. Lo que no se imagina es la cantidad de problemas que causará al perseguir una historia que nadie quiere que cuente. La dama del lago no es sólo un fascinante relato de una investigación criminalística, sino también la historia de dos mujeres que manifestaron su compromiso por luchar contra el destino que les había tocado en suerte, en la que se entremezclan el racismo, el sexismo y la lucha de clases en la América de los años sesenta. La crítica ha dicho... «La dama del lago atrapa por la fuerza de la narración, pero seduce por la construcción de personajes.» Marta Marne, El Periódico «Cautivadora [...]. Extraordinaria.» Stephen King «La escritora más próxima a Ruth Rendell, pero con destellos de humor. [...] Una novela inquietante, un libro especial, extraordinario, que trasciende las obras de Agatha Christie y Rex Stout, y honra al género negro.» Stephen King «Lippman es una narradora nata, en la cumbre de su talento.» Lee Child «Sencillamente, una de nuestras mejores novelistas, y punto.» The Washington Post «Lippman es un logro literario.» Chicago Sun-Times «Lippman no hace más que mejorar.» Entertainment Weekly «La mujer del lago es dolorosa, considerada y de lectura compulsiva.» Vanity Fair «Inspirada por la muerte sin resolver de Shirley Parker [...], la ambiciosa novela de Lippman entreteje unos veinte puntos de vista en un todo vívido y sin costuras. La novela demuestra que Lippman, que fue reportera del Baltimore Sun, es tanto una periodista habilidosa como una experta novelista.» The Washington Post «Los seguidores de Lippman devorarán esta sofisticada novela negra, que captael espíritu de la época, al tiempo que dibuja un retrato impactante de la ambición femenina sin remordimientos.» Publishers Weekly (crítica destacada) «La historia va más allá que el crimen y el crimen va más allá que su solución, con lo que el talento de Lippman como novelista de misterio no es aquí más que la guinda del pastel. El racismo, el clasismo y el sexismo dehace cincuenta años envueltos en un drama histórico lleno de suspense, estiloso y sexi.» Kirkus Reviews (crítica destacada) «Novela de emancipación que recuerda en algunos aspectos a las obras de Philip Roth (las barreras raciales, el lastre de la cultura judía, la sexualidad que libera). La mujer del lago navega entre las aguas de la novela policíaca, con su hermoso giro final, y las del retrato de una mujer que rehúsa plegarse a las imposiciones sociales, en un Estados Unidos de los años sesenta que no está tan alejado del actual.» L'Express]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653323Thu, 12 Jan 2023 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653323 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Cualquier verano es un final Author: Ray Loriga Narrator: Eugenio Barona Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 58 minutes Release date: January 12, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: RAY LORIGA, GANADOR DEL PREMIO ALFAGUARA, NOVELA LA AMISTAD CUANDO MÁS SE PARECE AL AMOR «Una escritura depurada, de breves párrafos, que no describe, sino que va, silenciosa como los neumáticos de un automóvil sobre una autopista». J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, La Vanguardia «Loriga pertenece a un selecto grupo de escritores que, como Houellebecq y Murakami, están redefiniendo la ficción del siglo XXI». Wayne Burrows, The Big Issue Alguien quiere morir. Ya no es joven, y se pregunta para qué otro día más, por muy privilegiada, divertida y amable que aún sea su vida. Alguien quiere amar. No sabe con certeza si le corresponden, si sus sentimientos serán entendidos, si tiene siquiera derecho a expresarlos. Alguien viaja. Visita ciudades, playas, bares, fiestas exóticas, cabañas al borde del agua donde pasar la noche bebiendo y riendo. Alguien ilustra unos libros preciosos y alguien se ocupa de editarlos. Trabajan sin prisas, con admiración mutua, con cierta sensación decadente de existir en un mundo que desaparece. Alguien ha tenido un grave problema de salud, se levanta despacio, se tienta la ropa y decide aprovechar la segunda oportunidad. Alguien gusta, despierta deseo, está siempre de paso en la vida de los demás, sonríe, paga la cena. Alguien es el mejor amigo y la persona favorita de otro. Alguien quiere morir. Ray Loriga narra los abismos de estos personajes, y compone una sinfonía sobre la amistad, el amor y el final de la juventud. Una novela en la que se habla de la muerte brindando por la vida. Una novela sobre el verano que aún queda por disfrutar antes de que llegue el invierno. «Un libro incontestable, lleno de cicatrices y sin una sola costura visible. [...] [Loriga] atraviesa, una vez más, su propia línea de sombra». Karina Sainz Borgo, ABC «Loriga envuelve esta trama en la belleza lírica evocadora que siempre gasta». María Paredes, The Objective «Inteligente e ingeniosa, reflexiva y honda a su pesar, nos atrapa». Juan Marqués, La Lectura (El Mundo) «Una novela de una melancólica calidez, como de la última copa de vino en el patio, en la última noche de agosto, frente a la playa, con las maletas a medio hacer desparramadas por la casa alquilada». Marta Medina, El Confidencial «Loriga narra [...] casi el deseo de canibalización del otro». Gonzalo Núñez, El Debate «Loriga siempre al borde del abismo. Por el riesgo que asume en su escritura, pero también por unos personajes que a menudo se mueven en el límite. [...] Cualquier verano es un final tiene la forma de una frontera». Jaime Cedillo, El Cultural «Ray trae en la postura esa pose que algunos pueden correr el riesgo de confundir con el fatalismo y que en realidad solo es serenidad. [...] Una obra con el temple que le ha dejado el tiempo en la muñeca y el intelecto». Javier Ors, Zenda «Mira como miraba a su lector desde la portada de Héroes pero este Bob Dylan madrileño [...] canta menos rock y más blues, parece menos rebotado y más desarmado y ha sustituido la camiseta que dejaba al aire todos sus tatuajes por un elegante jersey de cuello vuelto». Marta de la Calzada, Telva «Me gusta la facilidad aparente de la prosa de Ray Loriga, su levedad es un iceberg que esconde su masa bajo las aguas». Ricardo Lladosa, Zenda «La literatura de Ray Loriga, alejada de toda banalidad, se parece un poco al cine de John Ford: economía narrativa, poesía y sensibilidad».

As the mine that built the town slowly swallows it street by street, building by building, the memories of the community have collapsed into the huge pit they call “the hole.” Only a few stubborn souls cling to their homes, refusing to leave. When two workers making their final preparations hear a sound coming from a basement, they break a cellar window and find a terrified man curled up in a corner. In Ådalen, 700 kilometers away, police officer Eira Sjödin is investigating the disappearance of a man reported missing by his ex-wife. Eira and her colleagues search his apartment, contact his friends and relatives, and query local hospitals, but the man has vanished without a trace. Eira knows the pain of loss—she mourns for her mother, whose mind has been stolen by dementia. To escape her loneliness and her memories, Eira loses herself in a casual affair. But she’s wholly unprepared when her feelings deepen for GG, who is twenty years her senior–and her boss. When the diligent GG doesn’t show up for work two days in a row, Eira and her colleagues quickly realize that something is wrong—their boss has gone missing.

Title: Mount Misery: A Novel Author: Samuel Shem Narrator: Sean Runnette Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 28 minutes Release date: January 10, 2023 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: From the Laws of Mount Misery: There are no laws in psychiatry. Now, from the author of the riotous, moving, bestselling classic, The House of God, comes a lacerating and brilliant novel of doctors and patients in a psychiatric hospital. Mount Misery is a prestigious facility set in the rolling green hills of New England, its country club atmosphere maintained by generous corporate contributions. Dr. Roy Basch (hero of The House of God) is lucky enough to train there *only to discover doctors caught up in the circus of competing psychiatric theories, and patients who are often there for one main reason: they've got good insurance. From the Laws of Mount Misery: Your colleagues will hurt you more than your patients. On rounds at Mount Misery, it's not always easy for Basch to tell the patients from the doctors: Errol Cabot, the drug cowboy whose practice provides him with guinea pigs for his imaginative prescription cocktails . . . Blair Heiler, the world expert on borderlines (a diagnosis that applies to just about everybody) . . . A. K. Lowell, née Aliyah K. Lowenschteiner, whose Freudian analytic technique is so razor sharp it prohibits her from actually speaking to patients . . . And Schlomo Dove, the loony, outlandish shrink accused of having sex with a beautiful, well-to-do female patient. From the Laws of Mount Misery: Psychiatrists specialize in their defects. For Basch the practice of psychiatry soon becomes a nightmare in which psychiatrists compete with one another to find the best ways to reduce human beings to blubbering drug-addled pods, or incite them to an extreme where excessive rage is the only rational response, or tie them up in Freudian knots. And all the while, the doctors seem less interested in their patients' mental health than in a host of other things *managed care insurance money, drug company research grants and kickbacks, and their own professional advancement. From the Laws of Mount Misery: In psychiatry, first comes treatment, then comes diagnosis. What The House of God did for doctoring the body, Mount Misery does for doctoring the mind. A practicing psychiatrist, Samuel Shem brings vivid authenticity and extraordinary storytelling gifts to this long-awaited sequel, to create a novel that is laugh-out-loud hilarious, terrifying, and provocative. Filled with biting irony and a wonderful sense of the absurd, Mount Misery tells you everything you'll never learn in therapy.

Harrow, New York Times bestselling and Hugo‑award winning author). Katrina Kim may be broke, the black sheep of her family, and slightly unhinged, but she isn’t a stalker. Her obsession with her co-worker, Kurt, is just one of many coping mechanisms—like her constant shape and number rituals, or the way scenes from her favorite children’s book bleed into her vision whenever she feels anxious or stressed. But when Katrina finds a cryptic message from Kurt that implies he’s aware of her surveillance, her tenuous hold on a normal life crumbles. Driven by compulsion, she enacts the most powerful ritual she has to reclaim control—a midnight visit to the Cayatoga Bridge—and arrives just in time to witness Kurt’s suicide. Before he jumps, he slams her with a devastating accusation: his death is all her fault. Horrified, Katrina combs through the clues she’s collected about Kurt over the last three years, but each revelation uncovers a menacing truth: for every moment she was watching him, he was watching her. And the past she thought she’d left behind? It’s been following her more closely than she ever could have imagined. A gripping page-turner, as well as a sensitive exploration of mental health, Liar, Dreamer, Thief is an intimate portrayal of life in all its complexities—and the dangers inherent in unveiling people’s most closely guarded secrets.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/595057Tue, 10 Jan 2023 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/595057 to listen full audiobooks.

Driven by compulsion, she enacts the most powerful ritual she has to reclaim control—a midnight visit to the Cayatoga Bridge—and arrives just in time to witness Kurt’s suicide. Before he jumps, he slams her with a devastating accusation: his death is all her fault. Horrified, Katrina combs through the clues she’s collected about Kurt over the last three years, but each revelation uncovers a menacing truth: for every moment she was watching him, he was watching her. And the past she thought she’d left behind? It’s been following her more closely than she ever could have imagined. A gripping page-turner, as well as a sensitive exploration of mental health, Liar, Dreamer, Thief is an intimate portrayal of life in all its complexities—and the dangers inherent in unveiling people’s most closely guarded secrets.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-lords-of-discipline-by-pat-conroy--65279495https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/652188 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Tatami Galaxy: A Novel Author: Tomihiko Morimi Narrator: Andrew Grace Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 44 minutes Release date: December 6, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: An unfulfilled college student hurtles through four parallel realities to explore the what-might've-been and the what-should-never-be in this Groundhog Day meets The Midnight Library–esque novel from one of Japan’s most popular authors. Our protagonist, an unnamed junior at a prestigious university in Kyoto, is on the verge of dropping out. After rebelling against the dictatorial jock president of the film club, he and his worst and only friend, the diabolical creep Ozu, are personas non grata on campus. For two years, our protagonist has made all the wrong decisions, and now he's about to make another mistake. He and Ozu are preparing for revenge—a fireworks attack at the film club's welcoming party for new members. Then, a chance encounter with a self-proclaimed god sets the confused and distraught young man on a new course. Destiny will bring him together with Akashi, the blunt but charming sophomore he has a crush on—if he’s brave enough to make a move. Yet our protagonist cannot get beyond his profound disillusionment and the moment is lost. But what if there's a universe where he did join the club of his dreams, ditched Ozu for good, and was confident enough to get the girl? A realm of possibility opens up for our protagonist as time rewinds, and from the four-and-a-half-mat tatami floor of his dorm room, he is plunged into a series of adventures that will take him to four parallel universes. In each universe, he is given the opportunity to start over as a freshman, in search of a rose-colored campus life. The inspiration behind the much-loved anime series, Tomihiko Morimi's contemporary classic is a fantastic journey through time and space, where a half-eaten castella cake, a photograph from Rome, and a giant cavity in a wisdom tooth hold the keys to self-discovery. A time-traveling romp that speaks to everyone who has wondered what if, The Tatami Galaxy will win readers’ hearts over . . . and over . . . and over again.

'Language is a map leading to a place not on the map,' announces a young writer lying in a hospital bed at the beginning of The Presence of Absence.

Title: Idol, Burning: A Novel Author: Rin Usami Narrator: Mirai Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 13 minutes Release date: November 15, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: ''Akari’s obsession is fatalistic and intense, and Usami’s prose (translated by Asa Yoneda) renders it and the hold it has on her tenuous life ably and affectingly. . . . it will especially resonate with readers familiar with real-life superfandoms such as One Direction’s at the height of its fame, down to details such as sought-after exclusive merch and hateful online comments sections. A short, engrossing novel that captures the essence of obsessive fandom.” -- Kirkus (starred review) ''What's impressive about this novel is the author's ability to empathize with Akari's all-consuming love for Masaki while showing just how damaging this relationship is to Akari and everyone around her. The book left me heartbroken yet hopeful, and excited for more Usami novels to come.'' -- NPR.org “Haunting and sincere, Idol, Burning subverts and astonishes. Rin Usami balances humor, obsession, heartbreak, and sacrifice in her debut, crafting a story that's both enveloping and expansive. Usami's writing is thrilling and deft, and her novel illuminates the shadows cloaking our digital lives, leaving us with honesty and grace in equal measures. Idol, Burning is a barnburner and a prayer and a testament to the lengths that we'll go to reach for our dreams.”—Bryan Washington, award-winning author of Memorial and Lot The novel that lit the Japanese publishing world on fire: From a breathtaking up-and-coming writer, a twenty-first century Catcher in the Rye that brilliantly explores toxic fandom, social media, and alienated adolescence. Akari is a high school student obsessed with “oshi” Masaki Ueno, a member of the popular J-Pop group Maza Maza. She writes a blog devoted to him, and spends hours addictively scrolling for information about him and his life. Desperate to analyze and understand him, Akari hopes to eventually see the world through his eyes. It is a devotion that borders on the religious: Masaki is her savior, her backbone, someone she believes she cannot survive without—even though she’s never actually met him. When rumors surface that her idol assaulted a female fan, social media explodes. Akari immediately begins sifting through everything she can find about the scandal, and shares every detail to her blog—including Masaki’s denials and pleas to his fans—drawing numerous readers eager for her updates. But the organized, knowledgeable persona Akari presents online is totally different from the socially awkward, unfocused teenager she is in real life. As Masaki's situation spirals, his troubles threaten to tear apart her life too. Instead of finding a way to break free to save herself, Akari becomes even more fanatical about Masaki, still believing her idol is the only person who understands her. A blistering novel of fame, disconnection, obsession, and disillusion by a young writer not much older than the novel’s heroine, Idol, Burning shines a white-hot spotlight on fandom and “stan” culture, the money-making schemes of the pop idol industry, the seductive power of social media, and the powerful emotional void that opens when an idol falls from grace, only to become a real—and very flawed—person.

They were married quickly, but she knew it was the right choice. They're always laughing, the passion is unmatched, and they want the same things. Most of all, they both want a family. For David, it's doubly important. He tragically lost his first wife, Katherine, several years before. Hannah is, he says, the person who saved him from his grief. Although his friends worried he was moving on too fast, and Hannah sometimes still feels a strange jealousy towards his first wife, deep down she knows she's meant to be his happily-ever-after. Even so, when Hannah discovers she can’t have children, she’s worried it will fracture their relationship. Family is so important to both of them. Surely, she reasons, there must be a way.

Steve Galanos, a native Midwesterner, reflects on his time in Northern California during the 1990s, a time when the two-digit year emerged as the Y2K problem, the burgeoning Internet fueled the expansion of the New Economy, the dot-com bubble created unseen prosperity and real estate frenzies. Yet it's a housewarming party, held in late 1999, that affects him the most. At the request of John Goertz, a group of technology managers and executives gather in a conference room. Listening to the presentation is Steve Galanos, who is suspicious of Goertz's approach and the dramatic way he describes the problem. Goertz tries to convince his audience that a disaster awaits them unless they immediately address the two-digit year in the company's distributed systems and compiled code. It's 1994, well before anyone has heard of the term, Y2K. A promotion to run the newly-created year 2000 compliance program earns John more skepticism and envy from Steve, yet the two have much in common and soon become good friends. A few years later, John leaves for a startup and their lives trend in different directions.

Title: [Portuguese] - A falta Author: Xico Sá Narrator: Luciano Gatte, Luiz Debs Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 0 minutes Release date: October 20, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Neste romance do jornalista e escritor brasileiro Xico Sá, a narração de um jogo de futebol, lance a lance e minuto a minuto, na perspectiva de alguém em campo – o goleiro –, mesclando-se a fragmentos de memória e inquietações desse personagem tão central em um time. Em A falta, de Xico Sá, o protagonista é o camisa 1 de um time de futebol. Grande fã do esporte, tendo trabalhado muito tempo como jornalista esportivo, Xico mergulhou fundo nesse universo. No entanto, este romance literário vai além: não se trata apenas de um belo conjunto de referências históricas e futebolísticas, mas também conduz o leitor a temas mais humanos e subjetivos, como a pressão sobre atletas (e todos os profissionais dos quais se exige alta performance), a aproximação da aposentadoria, propósito, desejos e aspirações, paternidade, os relacionamentos e as frustrações acumulados ao longo de uma vida e, enfim, o amor. "Xico Sá não é apenas o grande cronista do complexo afeto brasileiro sempre em rebuliço, é um romancista sensível e original – seu Big Jato é imenso, um dos grandes romances deste século. Neste A falta, o escritor vai além, articula, entre o sonho e a condenação do erro humano, um poderoso espelho a que todas e todos correspondemos. Um livro que, pela potência de sua simplicidade narrativa (a simplicidade narrativa que só algumas raras pessoas conseguem compor), envolve, instiga, comove." - Paulo Scott]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/638410Thu, 20 Oct 2022 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/638410 to listen full audiobooks.

But on a trip to Paris to present a paper on Anna Karenina, Eleanor re-connects with Stephen—a childhood friend with whom she has had a complicated relationship—that forces her to realize that she has suppressed her passionate self for years. As the novel unfolds, we learn of her hidden erotic past: with alluring, elusive Stephen; with ethereal William, her high school boyfriend; with married, egotistical Adam, the painter who initiated her into the intimacies of the “life room,” where the artist’s model sometimes becomes muse; and with loyal, steady Michael, her husband. On her return to New York, Eleanor and Stephen’s charged attraction takes on a life of its own and threatens to destroy everything she has.

I’ve longed for the moment he would walk through the door and tell me all he ever wanted was to be with me.

He doesn’t remember we aren’t together, has no clue about his other family, and no recollection of the phone call he made before the crash – I made a terrible mistake that I can’t put right.

She has a wonderful job and is married to the love of her life, Nick—who also happens to be ridiculously handsome and fabulously wealthy. But now a shadow has fallen on her perfect life. She can see that Nick is struggling with demons from his past. When he was sixteen, his entire family disappeared without a trace and Nick has always insisted that his stepmother—whom he hated—was to blame, that she did something terrible to his beloved father and baby sister. That trauma has left him feeling that anyone he loves is in danger and might vanish in a heartbeat. So now he is obsessed with Lulu’s safety. He needs to know where she is 24/7, insists she carries a can of pepper spray, and is constantly watching for any potential threats. Lulu can see that this extreme anxiety is wearing Nick down. As a therapist, she knows the only way to heal trauma is to confront it. So she persuades him to return to the country house from which his family vanished. But soon after they arrive in this sleepy rural community, another person disappears. As Lulu is forced to question everything she knows about Nick and his missing family, dark secrets emerge from the past.

[...] Een goed geschreven en boeiend boek over een zwaar onderwerp.' Wim Krings, Boekhandel Krings 'Er zijn woorden die zich niet laten terugnemen. Eenmaal uitgesproken zijn ze onverbiddelijk tot leven gewekt. Woorden kunnen levens verwoesten, mensen doen besluiten zonder elkaar verder te gaan. Ze kunnen de persoon die je bent in de ogen van je kinderen voorgoed doen veranderen. Ze kunnen zelfs je eigen moeder doen twijfelen of ze jou wel op de wereld had moeten zetten.' Op de dag van Laura's vierde verjaardag pleegt haar moeder, Maria, zelfmoord. Jaren later, als Laura volwassen is en in verwachting van haar eerste kind, wil ze weten waarom haar moeder dit deed.

Title: Francie's Got a Gun Author: Carrie Snyder Narrator: Carrie Snyder Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 6 minutes Release date: July 26, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: ONE OF CBC'S BEST CANADIAN FICTION BOOKS OF 2022 A suspenseful and poignant tale from an award-winning writer about a girl navigating chaotic family life in a close-knit small town. On a June afternoon in a small city, a wild-eyed girl named Francie dashes down a neighbourhood street, clutching a gun. She doesn’t know exactly what she’s running from, and she doesn’t know what she’s heading towards. All she understands is the need to survive. To save herself, she has no choice but to run—and to save those she loves, she must hold tight to that gun. Swirling around Francie is a chorus of friends, family, and neighbours, each person with a different view of her. As we hear from these voices—Francie’s steadfast best friend, Alice; Alice’s comically unaware mother, Sally, and struggling mathematician father, David; Francie’s distressed and distracted mother, Marietta, and troubled, unwell father, Luce—a fractured portrait emerges of the girl and the village surrounding her. And at last we arrive at a still point in the chaos: a tall tree where Francie takes shelter, and where the meaning of her flight—for herself, and for the people around her—becomes clear. In Francie’s Got a Gun, award-winning writer Carrie Snyder assembles a chorus of unforgettable characters who are both well-intentioned and flawed. At their centre is Francie, a vulnerable, imaginative girl with surprising attachments to each of them. Here is a propulsive, polyphonic, heart-expanding novel—equal parts sorrow and humour, fear and love, anger and kindness—about social breakdown and the quest for connection in a close-knit community.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/605384Tue, 26 Jul 2022 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/605384 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Five-Part Invention Author: Andrea J. Buchanan Narrator: Jackie Meloche, Jayme Mattler, Jane Oppenheimer, Susan Hanfield, Elizabeth Wiley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 10 minutes Release date: June 30, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: When Lise, a pianist, suffers a nervous breakdown early in her marriage, her husband, in a warped act of protection and jealousy, has her piano taken away. With prose that is precise and emotionally affecting, Andrea J. Buchanan vividly renders how Lise's separation from her one source of expression and fulfillment cascades into her relationship with her daughter, leaving a legacy of trauma that echoes through the generations to come. Characters emerge broken and passionate, jagged, and yet hopeful and emotionally resonant, written in a way that only Buchanan, herself a conservatory-trained pianist, could achieve. Spanning five generations of women, Five-Part Invention wrestles with the question—if trauma echoes through generations, can love echo too? Is the love we transmit enough to undo the trauma of the past that we unwittingly carry with us and often re-enact in the present?

Title: Five-Part Invention Author: Andrea J. Buchanan Narrator: Jackie Meloche, Jayme Mattler, Jane Oppenheimer, Susan Hanfield, Elizabeth Wiley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 10 minutes Release date: June 30, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: When Lise, a pianist, suffers a nervous breakdown early in her marriage, her husband, in a warped act of protection and jealousy, has her piano taken away. With prose that is precise and emotionally affecting, Andrea J. Buchanan vividly renders how Lise's separation from her one source of expression and fulfillment cascades into her relationship with her daughter, leaving a legacy of trauma that echoes through the generations to come. Characters emerge broken and passionate, jagged, and yet hopeful and emotionally resonant, written in a way that only Buchanan, herself a conservatory-trained pianist, could achieve. Spanning five generations of women, Five-Part Invention wrestles with the question—if trauma echoes through generations, can love echo too? Is the love we transmit enough to undo the trauma of the past that we unwittingly carry with us and often re-enact in the present? By turns frightening and exquisitely observed, Five-Part Invention establishes Buchanan as a literary force.]]>185cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/wish-her-safe-at-home-by-stephen-benatar--65279497https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/627180 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Wish Her Safe at Home Author: Stephen Benatar Narrator: Elizabeth Knowelden Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 0 minutes Release date: June 28, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Rachel Waring is deliriously happy. Out of nowhere, a great-aunt leaves her a Georgian mansion in another city—and she sheds her old life without delay. Gone is her dull administrative job, her mousy wardrobe, her downer of a roommate. She will live as a woman of leisure, devoted to beauty, creativity, expression, and love. Once installed in her new quarters, Rachel plants a garden, takes up writing, and impresses everyone she meets with her extraordinary optimism. But as Rachel sings and jokes the days away, her new neighbors begin to wonder if she might be taking her transformation just a bit too far. In Wish Her Safe at Home, Stephen Benatar finds humor and horror in the shifting region between elation and mania.

Divorced, alone, at loose ends, C is stuck with a struggling business, a stack of bills, a new erotic interest in her oldest girlfriend, and a persistent hallucination in the form of a rogue garden gnome with a pointed interest in systems collapse … C needs to put her medical debt and her sex life in order, but how to make concrete plans with this little visitor haunting her apartment, sporting a three-piece suit, and delivering impromptu lectures on the vulnerability of the national grid?

Title: [German] - Am Meer: Roman von August Strindberg Author: August Strindberg Narrator: Anne Theres Priemer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 53 minutes Release date: May 27, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Am Meer Roman von August Strindberg, gelesen von Anne Theres Priemer. August Strindberg (1849-1912) zählt zu den bedeutendsten Schriftstellern Schwedens und gehört mit seinen zahlreichen Romanen, Novellen und Dramen zu den Klassikern der schwedischen Literatur. In seinem Roman 'Am Meer' (Originaltitel: I havsbandet. Erstdruck: 1890) schildert Strindberg das Leben des Fischereiinspektors Axel Borg, der auf eine abgelegene Schäreninsel versetzt wird, um die dortige Fischerei zu modernisieren. Die ablehnende Haltung der Inselbewohner und seine eigene, zum Teil überhebliche Selbsteinschätzung, lassen Borg jedoch schon bald immer mehr zum Einzelgänger werden. Borg vereinsamt angesichts der ablehnend eingestellten Bevölkerung zunehmend, bis er ein Liebesverhältnis mit der Sommerfrischlerin Maria eingeht. Überzeugt von der absoluten Überlegenheit des Mannes über die Frau, spielt er mit Marias Empfindungen wie die Katze mit der Maus. Durch sein manisches Verhalten zerbricht schließlich diese Liebesbeziehung. Nachdem Maria die Insel verlassen hat, treibt der innerlich zusammengebrochene Fischereiinspektor Borg unaufhaltsam auf eine Katastrophe zu. Strindberg war in erster Linie Autor, insbesondere von Theaterstücken, die oft intensive und schmerzhafte Situationen in einer Ehe behandelten. Er kämpfte oft mit seiner eigenen psychisch labilen Verfassung, war oft depressiv, litt an manischen Zuständen, und dies spiegelte sich auch in seinem literarischen Schaffen wider. Einige Merkmale und auch verwendete Namen von Figuren des Romans, deuten darauf hin, dass auch 'Am Meer' autobiografisch zu lesen ist. Die Hörbuchfassung folgt der Übersetzung von Mathilde Mann, Leipzig, Insel-Verlag, 1920.

Title: [Spanish] - Dejar el mundo atrás Author: Rumaan Alam Narrator: Julieth Restrepo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 29 minutes Release date: May 12, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Escrita antes de la pandemia, Dejar el mundo atrás es una distopía magnética, vibrante y profética. «La novela quebuscarán las próximas generaciones cuando quieran saber cómo vivimos la pesadilla del 2020». The Guardian Amanda y Clay se dirigen a un rincón remoto de Long Island con la idea de tomarse un descanso de su ajetreada vida en Nueva York: un respiro de fin de semana en una casa de lujo en compañía de su hijo y su hija. Sin embargo, el hechizo se rompe de madrugada, cuando Ruth y G. H., una pareja mayor, llama a la puerta: son los propietarios de la casa y se han presentado allí en estado de pánico con la noticia de que un apagón repentino ha barrido la ciudad. De repente, las dos familias empiezan a presenciar extraños fenómenos de la naturaleza, como una manada de ciervos que huye despavorida y siembra el caos en el jardín.

The Guardian Amanda y Clay se dirigen a un rincón remoto de Long Island con la idea de tomarse un descanso de su ajetreada vida en Nueva York: un respiro de fin de semana en una casa de lujo en compañía de su hijo y su hija. Sin embargo, el hechizo se rompe de madrugada, cuando Ruth y G. H., una pareja mayor, llama a la puerta: son los propietarios de la casa y se han presentado allí en estado de pánico con la noticia de que un apagón repentino ha barrido la ciudad. De repente, las dos familias empiezan a presenciar extraños fenómenos de la naturaleza, como una manada de ciervos que huye despavorida y siembra el caos en el jardín.

Sally, a cynical 15-year-old schoolgirl, is much too clever for her own good.

Title: The Odd Women Author: George Gissing Narrator: The Ark, Geoffrey Giuliano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 10 minutes Release date: March 26, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Before he was 21 George Gissing conceived the ambition of writing a long series of novels, somewhat in the manner of Balzac, whom he admired. The first of these, Workers in the Dawn, appeared in 1880, to be followed by 21 others. Between 1886 and 1895 he published one or more novels every year. He also wrote Charles Dickens: A Critical Study (1898), a perceptive piece of literary criticism. Gissing's work has a good deal of documentary interest for its detailed and accurate accounts of lower-middle-class London life. On the social position and psychology of women, he is particularly acute: The Odd Women is a powerful study of female frustration. He did not lack human sympathies, but his obvious contempt for so many of his characters reflects an artistic limitation. Gissing was deeply critical, in an almost wholly negative way, of contemporary society. Of his novels, New Grub Street, considered by some critics to be his only great book, is unique in its merciless analysis of the compromises required by the literary life. Gissing's 1893 novel takes on the 19th century 'Woman Question' by looking at themes of feminism, marriage, and love. The novel raises these issues through the lives of several contrasting women: Mary Barfoot, a feminist philanthropist who helps train women for careers; her close friend Rhoda Nunn, who believes marriage is a disastrous choice for women; and Monica Madden, who starts out as one of their protegees but chooses to marry a seemingly kind older man.

Title: [Spanish] - El parque de los perros Author: Sofi Oksanen Narrator: Rebeca Hernando Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 48 minutes Release date: March 24, 2022 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: En la Ucrania postsoviética, una historia de lealtad y confianza rota entre dos mujeres atrapadas en el negocio de los vientres de alquiler. Desde su irrupción en el panorama literario tras la publicación de Purga, una novela que sigue cosechando premios y excelentes críticas, Sofi Oksanen no ha dejado de sorprendernos con su imaginación desbordante y su denuncia de los dramas humanos. En El parque de los perros, combina el realismo más crudo y el thriller psicológico para recrear una parte de la historia europea reciente, poniendo el foco en la industria de la fertilidad y los vientres de alquiler a través del vínculo entre dos mujeres en una Ucrania empobrecida tras la caída de la Unión Soviética. A caballo entre la Helsinki contemporánea y la Ucrania postsoviética, El parque de los perros narra la compleja relación entre la corrupción de Oriente y la codicia de Occidente, y la de dos jóvenes atrapadas en ese implacable engranaje. Extremadamente aguda y perspicaz, Sofi Oksanen teje un relato cautivador sobre la incapacidad de sobrevivir al trauma de un hijo perdido que es, también, un alegato contra la instrumentalización del cuerpo femenino. La crítica ha dicho... «El parque de los perros es fascinante, de una belleza fiera que nos permite conocer los conceptos básicos de Ucrania, las estructuras sociales que afectan a sus vidas y los motivos que les llevan a acometer los actos que estas páginas retratan. [...] Una dura realidad magníficamente plasmada... con un final esperanzador.» La Razón «A caballo entre la Ucrania postsoviética y la Helsinki actual, El parque de los perros evidencia, una vez más, la siempre difícil relación entre Occidente y Oriente. Lo hace a través de Olenka y Daría, dos mujeres condenadas a vivir una vida que podría haber sido diferente si hubieran tomado decisiones distintas a las que en el pasado se vieron obligadas a adoptar. Como trasfondo, la corrupción y la industria de la fertilidad y los vientres de alquiler, un asunto que con la invasión de Ucrania ha vuelto a estallar en la cara de una sociedad que mira a otro lado.» ABC «El parque de los perros es una oportuna novela para entender Ucrania. La que había cuando la escribió y la que hay cuando Putin la bombardea. Y la coloca en donde ella quiere estar: Soy una autora poscolonial. Y la literatura poscolonial es mi contexto. Un poscolonialismo que Putin intenta cada día desafiar.» El País «En la de nuevo magnífica novela El parque de los perros, el lector viaja a la Ucrania postsoviética. El crudo relato, a la manera de una apasionante novela negra cuyos enigmas se van desvelando paso a paso, tiene por protagonista el sombrío mercado y las mafias que controlan el lucrativo comercio 'de la carne'. Un comercio que se ceba en mujeres jóvenes, atractivas y de 'buenos genes', dispuestas a todo, incluso a vender órganos, para salir de la miseria en la que están instaladas sus familias tras el derrumbe del ex imperio soviético. La solución más frecuente a la que recurren es la donación de óvulos, en medio de un tráfico clandestino.» ABC Cultural «Un vívido retrato de un estado postsoviético donde los gánsteres gobiernan y la explotación del cuerpo femenino es un negocio lucrativo.» The Guardian «Una ficción distópica demasiado verosímil.» Kirkus Reviews «Sofi Oksanen regresa a la cima del mundo literario. [...] Una de sus mejores novelas.» Dagsavisen]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/578572Thu, 24 Mar 2022 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/578572 to listen full audiobooks.

La crítica ha dicho... «El parque de los perros es fascinante, de una belleza fiera que nos permite conocer los conceptos básicos de Ucrania, las estructuras sociales que afectan a sus vidas y los motivos que les llevan a acometer los actos que estas páginas retratan. [...] Una dura realidad magníficamente plasmada... con un final esperanzador.» La Razón «A caballo entre la Ucrania postsoviética y la Helsinki actual, El parque de los perros evidencia, una vez más, la siempre difícil relación entre Occidente y Oriente. Lo hace a través de Olenka y Daría, dos mujeres condenadas a vivir una vida que podría haber sido diferente si hubieran tomado decisiones distintas a las que en el pasado se vieron obligadas a adoptar. Como trasfondo, la corrupción y la industria de la fertilidad y los vientres de alquiler, un asunto que con la invasión de Ucrania ha vuelto a estallar en la cara de una sociedad que mira a otro lado.» ABC «El parque de los perros es una oportuna novela para entender Ucrania. La que había cuando la escribió y la que hay cuando Putin la bombardea. Y la coloca en donde ella quiere estar: Soy una autora poscolonial. Y la literatura poscolonial es mi contexto. Un poscolonialismo que Putin intenta cada día desafiar.» El País «En la de nuevo magnífica novela El parque de los perros, el lector viaja a la Ucrania postsoviética. El crudo relato, a la manera de una apasionante novela negra cuyos enigmas se van desvelando paso a paso, tiene por protagonista el sombrío mercado y las mafias que controlan el lucrativo comercio 'de la carne'. Un comercio que se ceba en mujeres jóvenes, atractivas y de 'buenos genes', dispuestas a todo, incluso a vender órganos, para salir de la miseria en la que están instaladas sus familias tras el derrumbe del ex imperio soviético. La solución más frecuente a la que recurren es la donación de óvulos, en medio de un tráfico clandestino.» ABC Cultural «Un vívido retrato de un estado postsoviético donde los gánsteres gobiernan y la explotación del cuerpo femenino es un negocio lucrativo.» The Guardian «Una ficción distópica demasiado verosímil.» Kirkus Reviews «Sofi Oksanen regresa a la cima del mundo literario. [...] Una de sus mejores novelas.» Dagsavisen]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/madame-bovary-by-gustave-flaubert--65279588https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/579476 to listen full audiobooks.

This translation is by Eleanor Marx-Aveling, a prominent social activist and literary translator. She was the youngest daughter of Karl Marx. Gustave Flaubert was a highly influential, he has been considered the leading exponent of literary realism in his country. According to the literary theorist Kornelije Kvas, 'in Flaubert, realism strives for formal perfection, so the presentation of reality tends to be neutral, emphasizing the values and importance of style as an objective method of presenting reality'.He is known especially for his debut novel Madame Bovary (1857), his Correspondence, and his scrupulous devotion to his style and aesthetics.

Begeerd door al haar leeftijdsgenoten, geliefd door iedereen.

A lovely home. A promising new beginning. In a heartbeat everything can change in this propulsive novel of suspense by USA Today bestselling author Kaira Rouda. Julie Jones has left her suffocating marriage. With her teenage daughter, Jess, she’s starting over. Their new house in Oceanside is the first step toward a new life. Even if it does come with the unexpected. The previous owners, a pastor and his wife, have left something—or rather someone—behind… Tom Dean has a bitter hatred for the father who considers him a lost cause, and for the woman who’s moved into their family’s house.

Accidents and disease wear us down, hiccup our life from childhood to old age. But everyone empathises, understands and helps us on the road to recovery. Mental illness though can still carry a stigma. A case of 'you're not trying hard enough', 'or knuckling down and getting on with it'. But in more recent decades mental issues have come to be recognised as an illness, a disease rather than an affliction. We all remember horror stories of lobotomy's and electric shock being used to 'cure' what society viewed as anti-social behaviour but illness, mental or physical is very real. Depression, schizophrenia, breakdown, psychosis, are alarming events to have or to witness. In this volume our classic authors including Sherwood Anderson, Amy Levy, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Barry Pain and many others explore this oft neglected and most difficult of topics.1 - Short Stories About Mental Illness - An Introduction2 - Diary of a Madman by Nikolai Gogol3 - The Yellow Wall Paper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman4 - Sokratics in the Strand by Amy Levy5 - A Complete Recovery by Barry Pain6 - Diary of a Lunatic by Leo Tolstoy7 - Adventure by Sherwood Anderson8 - Miss Ogilivy Finds Herself by Radclyffe Hall9 - Hide And Seek or Pliatki by Fyodor Sologub10 - Brothers by Sherwood Anderson11 - Fear by Catherine Wells12 - The Diary of a God by Barry Pain13 - Shut Out by F Anstey14 - The Miracle by John Davys Beresford15 - The Lie by Leonid Andreyev16 - The Fall of the House of Usher - Part 1 by Edgar Allan Poe17 - The Fall of the House of Usher - Part 2 by Edgar Allan Poe18 - The Last of Squire Ennismore by Charlotte Riddell19 - Cohen of Trinity by Amy Levy20 - The City by Leonid Andreyev21 - In the Séance Room by Lettice Galbraith22 - A Red Flower by Vsevolod Garshin23 - Hands by Sherwood Anderson24 - Silence by Leonid Nikolaevich Andreyev25 - Paul's Case by Willa Cather]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653150Sat, 01 Jan 2022 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/653150 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: A Mouthful of Air Author: Amy Koppelman Narrator: Julia Atwood Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 39 minutes Release date: November 30, 2021 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Now a major motion picture starring Amanda Seyfried and Finn Wittrock A Mouthful of Air is a compassionate and wrenching portrait of Julie Davis, a young wife and mother torn between the love she feels for her family and the voice in her head that insists they’d be better off without her. We meet Julie several weeks after her suicide attempt, on the eve of her son’s first birthday. Grateful to be alive, Julie tries her best to appreciate every moment—“this tree, that passing car, the pretzel guy up ahead on the corner. She has, for whatever reason, been given a second chance”—but her emotional demons are unrelenting, and she is slowly and quietly losing the battle. Within the narrative of A Mouthful of Air is an argument about the nature of depression—its causes, cures, and the price it exacts from its victims. With spare, elegant prose, this brutally honest portrayal of family and self illuminates the power and complexity of the human psyche.

Holly Kendrick’s husband is dead. Holly saw it all. In one violent moment, a hit-and-run accident turns Holly’s life upside down.

After a series of heart-breaking miscarriages, Kate's marriage is hanging by a thread.

Title: [Spanish] - Estampida Author: Bernardita Bravo Prlizzola Narrator: Gabriela Betancourt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 10 minutes Release date: August 10, 2019 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Se respira una atmósfera anómala en estos nueve cuentos. No sabría decir si es un rasgo onírico, o un realismo que se desborda y deviene otra cosa, pero origina un cosquilleo en algún punto del sistema nervioso. Sí, es una especie de estampida, pero de sentidos; surgen personajes como bestias, al límite, desesperados en el intento de encontrarse a sí mismos. En ese movimiento de seres crispados, llama la atención una figura que adquiere un cariz insólito en la narrativa chilena: la madre manumisa. La madre de Estampida no es esa mujer que soporta la cadena de su maternidad, aquella que está siempre-a-disposición, sino una madre que se escapa, ya sea en sus pensamientos o a lo largo de una carretera. En varios de estos cuentos vemos madres prófugas y emancipadas, dispuestas a no ser otra cosa que mujeres libres.

Title: [Spanish] - Estampida Author: Bernardita Bravo Prlizzola Narrator: Gabriela Betancourt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 10 minutes Release date: August 10, 2019 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: Se respira una atmósfera anómala en estos nueve cuentos. No sabría decir si es un rasgo onírico, o un realismo que se desborda y deviene otra cosa, pero origina un cosquilleo en algún punto del sistema nervioso. Sí, es una especie de estampida, pero de sentidos; surgen personajes como bestias, al límite, desesperados en el intento de encontrarse a sí mismos. En ese movimiento de seres crispados, llama la atención una figura que adquiere un cariz insólito en la narrativa chilena: la madre manumisa. La madre de Estampida no es esa mujer que soporta la cadena de su maternidad, aquella que está siempre-a-disposición, sino una madre que se escapa, ya sea en sus pensamientos o a lo largo de una carretera. En varios de estos cuentos vemos madres prófugas y emancipadas, dispuestas a no ser otra cosa que mujeres libres. Son cuerpos potentes, geniales, que algo inauguran, aunque no sepamos todavía qué.]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/spanish-hermano-ciervo-by-juan-pablo-roncone--65279479https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/635595 to listen full audiobooks.

Un cacique se cree perseguido por el espíritu de su esposa recién fallecida. Una de sus dos hijas se sumerge en la locura, lo que obliga a su nieto a volver de la ciudad para cuidarla. La otra se hunde en el remordimiento. Su hijo no reconocido lucha contra lo que considera una injusticia por parte de su padre. La amante que tiene fama de hechicera.

'Los demonios de la sangre' es una novela donde los lazos familiares asfixian, cuyos personajes recluidos en sus pensamientos son incapaces de comunicarse con el otro si no es a través de la ira y el miedo. Con un estilo descarnado y directo, Alejandro Paniagua nos plantea una historia de opresivos ambientes rulfianos y se da el lujo de incluir algunos guiños a 'La tempestad' y 'El rey Lear' de Shakespeare.

He has neither money nor prospects, and he knows practically nothing about art, but he is seized with a passion to paint, and for the rest of his life, nothing else matters to him.

Title: The Moon and Sixpence Author: W. Somerset Maugham Narrator: Frederick Davidson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 35 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: This is the story of an artist who was willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of art. Charles Strickland, a stock broker in London, seems like a good, honest man. But one day, at the age of forty, heleaves his business, his wife, and his children and goes to Paris. He has neither money nor prospects, and he knows practically nothing about art, but he is seized with a passion to paint, and for the rest of his life, nothing else matters to him. He gives up everything to which he had been accustomed for extreme poverty, social ostracism, and the freedom to paint. When he finally dies of leprosy in Tahiti, where he had gone native, the few paintings which turn up for sale bring only six to ten francs apiece.

Title: The Year of Fog Author: Michelle Richmond Narrator: Carrington Macduffie Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 14 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Psychological Publisher's Summary: “Here is the truth, this is what I know: I was walking on the beach with Emma. It was cold and very foggy. She let go of my hand. I stopped to photograph a baby seal, then glanced up toward the Great Highway. When I looked back, she was gone.” Life changes in an instant. Like on a foggy beach, in the seconds when Abby Mason—photographer, fianc├®e, and soon-to-be-stepmother—looks into her camera and commits her greatest error. Six-year-old Emma vanished into the thick San Francisco fog. Or into the heaving Pacific. Or somewhere just beyond: to a parking lot, a stranger’s van, or a road with traffic flashing by. Devastated by guilt and haunted by her fears about becoming a stepmother, Abby refuses to believe that Emma is dead. And so she searches for clues about what happened that morning—and cannot stop the flood of memories reaching from her own childhood to illuminate that irreversible moment on the beach. Now, as the days drag into weeks, as the police lose interest and fliers fade on telephone poles, Emma’s father finds solace in religion and scientific probability—but Abby can only wander the beaches and city streets, attempting to recover the past and the little girl she lost. With her life at a crossroads, she will leave San Francisco for a country thousands of miles away. And there, by the side of another sea, on a journey that has led her to another man and into a strange subculture of wanderers and surfers, Abby will make the most astounding discovery of all—as the truth of Emma’s disappearance unravels with stunning force. A profoundly original novel of family, loss, and hope—of the choices we make and the choices made for us—The Year of Fog beguiles with the mysteries of time and memory even as it lays bare the deep and wondrous workings of the human heart. The result is a mesmerizing tour de force that will touch anyone who knows what it means to love a child.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/628407Sun, 01 Jan 2006 08:49:27 +0000Alisa BlickPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/628407 to listen full audiobooks.
