Title: Grown Women: A Novel Author: Sarai Johnson Narrator: Karen Chilton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 5 minutes Release date: July 9, 2024 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: “This is a tender, deeply perceptive tale of what kin owes kin, and how we might work to mend old wounds together.”—Elle In this stunning debut novel, four generations of complex Black women contend with motherhood and daughterhood, generational trauma and the deeply ingrained tensions and wounds that divide them as they redefine happiness and healing for themselves. Erudite Evelyn, her cynical daughter Charlotte, and Charlotte’s optimistic daughter Corinna see the world very differently. Though they love each other deeply, it’s no wonder that their personalities often clash. But their conflicts go deeper than run-of-the-mill disagreements. Here, there is deep, dark resentment for past and present hurt.   When Corinna gives birth to her own daughter, Camille, the beautiful, intelligent little girl offers this trio of mothers something they all need: hope, joy, and an opportunity to reconcile. They decide to work together to raise their collective daughter with the tenderness and empathy they missed in their own relationships. Yet despite their best intentions, they cannot agree on what that means. After Camille eventually leaves her mother and grandmother in rural Tennessee for a more cosmopolitan life in Washington, DC with her great-grandmother, it’s unclear whether this complex and self-contained girl will thrive or be overwhelmed by the fears and dreams of three generations she carries. As she grows into a gutsy young woman, Camille must decide for herself what happiness will look like.  In masterful, elegant prose, debut novelist Sarai Johnson has created a rich and moving portrait of Black women’s lives today.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/659562Tue, 09 Jul 2024 07:10:57 +0000Braeden ChamplinPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/659562 to listen full audiobooks.

Kwok is a skilled writer of suspenseful family drama. . . . We root for Jasmine and Rebecca as they face impossible choices and emerge stronger for all the battles they’ve fought, always resisting becoming the ‘leftover’ women.” —Leigh Haber, New York Times Book Review  Jasmine Yang arrives in New York City from her rural Chinese village without money or family support, fleeing a controlling husband, on a desperate search for the daughter who was taken from her at birth—another female casualty of China’s controversial One Child Policy. But with her husband on her trail, the clock is ticking, and she’s forced to make increasingly risky decisions if she ever hopes to be reunited with her daughter. Meanwhile, publishing executive Rebecca Whitney seems to have it all: a prestigious family name and the wealth that comes with it, a high-powered career, a beautiful home, a handsome husband, and an adopted Chinese daughter she adores. She’s even hired a nanny to help her balance the demands of being a working wife and mother. But when an industry scandal threatens to jeopardize not only Rebecca’s job but her marriage, this perfect world begins to crumble and her role in her own family is called into question. The Leftover Woman finds these two unforgettable women on a shocking collision course. Twisting and suspenseful and surprisingly poignant, it's a profound exploration of identity and belonging, motherhood and family. It is a story of two women in a divided city—separated by severe economic and cultural differences yet bound by a deep emotional connection to a child. “A magnetic meditation on secret histories, motherhood, love, and how we show up for each other in the most surprising of ways.

Recommended by The New York Times • Vogue • People • NPR • Vulture • The Guardian • Cosmopolitan • Rolling Stone • Publishers Weekly • The Sunday Times • and many more! In this sensational, page-turning debut novel, a high-profile female journalist’s world is upended when her fiancé’s name turns up in a viral social media post. “Brilliantly written, intricately plotted and incredibly clever. Once I started, I could not put it down, and I am sure I'll be thinking about this book for a very long time.” — Abi Daré, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl with the Louding Voice Ola Olajide, a celebrated journalist at Womxxxn magazine, is set to marry the love of her life. Young, beautiful, and successful, she and her fiancé, Michael, are considered the “couple goals” of their social network and seem to have it all. That is, until one morning when they both wake up to the same message: “Oh my god, have you seen The List?”  It began as a list of anonymous allegations about abusive men. Now it has been published online. Ola would usually be the first to support such a list—she'd call for the men to be fired, write article after article. Except this time, Michael's name is on it. With one month to the wedding, Ola gives Michael an ultimatum: prove his innocence or the wedding's off. But will the truth of what happened change everything for them both? Compulsively readable, wildly entertaining, and filled with sharp social insight, The List is a piercing and dazzlingly clear-sighted debut about secrets, lies, and the internet. “Topical, heartfelt, provocative and wise, Yomi Adegoke’s characters are tenderly realized . . . the entire cast of this ultimate millennial novel springs vividly to life.” — Bernardine Evaristo, Booker Prize-winning author of Girl, Woman, Other  “The List asks ‘what if?’ and the answers will surely get people thinking. A vibrantly told exploration of the messy interface between virtual and offline relationships.

Recommended by The New York Times • Vogue • People • NPR • Vulture • The Guardian • Cosmopolitan • Rolling Stone • Publishers Weekly • The Sunday Times • and many more! In this sensational, page-turning debut novel, a high-profile female journalist’s world is upended when her fiancé’s name turns up in a viral social media post. “Brilliantly written, intricately plotted and incredibly clever. Once I started, I could not put it down, and I am sure I'll be thinking about this book for a very long time.” — Abi Daré, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl with the Louding Voice Ola Olajide, a celebrated journalist at Womxxxn magazine, is set to marry the love of her life. Young, beautiful, and successful, she and her fiancé, Michael, are considered the “couple goals” of their social network and seem to have it all. That is, until one morning when they both wake up to the same message: “Oh my god, have you seen The List?”  It began as a list of anonymous allegations about abusive men. Now it has been published online. Ola would usually be the first to support such a list—she'd call for the men to be fired, write article after article. Except this time, Michael's name is on it. With one month to the wedding, Ola gives Michael an ultimatum: prove his innocence or the wedding's off. But will the truth of what happened change everything for them both? Compulsively readable, wildly entertaining, and filled with sharp social insight, The List is a piercing and dazzlingly clear-sighted debut about secrets, lies, and the internet. “Topical, heartfelt, provocative and wise, Yomi Adegoke’s characters are tenderly realized . . . the entire cast of this ultimate millennial novel springs vividly to life.” — Bernardine Evaristo, Booker Prize-winning author of Girl, Woman, Other  “The List asks ‘what if?’ and the answers will surely get people thinking. A vibrantly told exploration of the messy interface between virtual and offline relationships. A page-turning tale!” — Charmaine Wilkerson, New York Times bestselling author of Black Cake]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/the-prospectors-a-novel-by-ariel-djanikian--65303778https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/659859 to listen full audiobooks.

But when her elder sister’s husband strikes a vein of gold in the Yukon Territory, Alice finally seizes control of her destiny by joining a wave of white settlers making the dangerous trek to the Klondike. What follows is an awakening of ambition for the quietly opportunistic Alice, who, by luck and circumstance, becomes tightly intertwined in her sister and brother-in-law’s newfound fortune, as well as the beginning of a generations-long family quest for wealth that unfolds against the icy Canadian wilderness and the booming oilfields of California. One hundred years later, in 2015, Alice’s great-great-granddaughter Anna must grapple with moral conflict and questions of justice as she travels to the Klondike to bequeath her would-be inheritance to the First Nations peoples who paid the price for its creation. Bringing the Klondike and turn-of-the-century California to vivid life, Ariel Djanikian weaves an ambitious narrative of claiming the American Dream and its rippling effects across generations. Sweeping and awe-inspiring, The Prospectors is an unforgettable story of family loyalties that interrogates the often-overlooked hostilities and inequities born during the Gold Rush era.

She is visiting an exhibition of pre-Columbian artifacts, spoils of European colonialism, many stolen from her homeland of Peru. As she peers at countless sculptures of Indigenous faces, each resembling her own, she sees herself in them—but the man responsible for pillaging them was her own great-great-grandfather, Austrian colonial explorer Charles Wiener.  In the wake of her father’s death, Gabriela returns to Peru. In alternating strands, she begins to probe her father’s infidelity, her own polyamorous relationship, and the history of her colonial ancestor, unpacking the legacy that is her birthright. From the eye-patched persona her father adopted to carry out his double life to the brutal racism she encounters in her ancestor Charles’s book, she traces a cycle of abandonment, jealousy, and fraud, in turn reframing her own personal struggles with desire, love, and race.  Translated by Julia Sanches]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650876Tue, 26 Sep 2023 07:10:57 +0000Braeden ChamplinPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650876 to listen full audiobooks.

It is now the late '90s and despite their parents' harrowing past, Ai and her tightknit group of school friends: charismatic Brigitte, sweet, endearing Bowie, shy, inscrutable Tin, and politically minded Sying, lead seemingly ordinary lives, far removed from the unimaginable horrors suffered by their parents. But that carefree innocence is shattered in their last year of school when Ai and her friends encounter a pair of racist men whose cruel acts of intimidation spiral into senseless violence. Grappling with the magnitude of her grief at such a young age, Ai leaves Whitlam for college before her trauma has a chance to fully resolve.  In her second year of college Ai suffers a mental health crisis, driving her back home to Whitlam, a place she swore never to return.

Thirty-three-year-old Abby Stern has made it to a happy place. True, she still has gig jobs instead of a career, and the apartment where she’s lived since college still looks like she’s just moved in. But she’s got good friends, her bike, and her bicycling club in Philadelphia. She’s at peace with her plus-size body—at least, most of the time—and she’s on track to marry Mark Medoff, her childhood sweetheart, a man she met at the weight-loss camp that her perpetually dieting mother forced her to attend. Fifteen years after her final summer at Camp Golden Hills, when Abby reconnects with a half-his-size Mark, it feels like the happy ending she’s always wanted. Yet Abby can’t escape the feeling that something isn’t right...or the memories of one thrilling night she spent with a man named Sebastian two years previously. When Abby gets a last-minute invitation to lead a cycling trip from NYC to Niagara Falls, she’s happy to have time away from Mark, a chance to reflect and make up her mind.

Thirty-three-year-old Abby Stern has made it to a happy place. True, she still has gig jobs instead of a career, and the apartment where she’s lived since college still looks like she’s just moved in. But she’s got good friends, her bike, and her bicycling club in Philadelphia. She’s at peace with her plus-size body—at least, most of the time—and she’s on track to marry Mark Medoff, her childhood sweetheart, a man she met at the weight-loss camp that her perpetually dieting mother forced her to attend. Fifteen years after her final summer at Camp Golden Hills, when Abby reconnects with a half-his-size Mark, it feels like the happy ending she’s always wanted. Yet Abby can’t escape the feeling that something isn’t right...or the memories of one thrilling night she spent with a man named Sebastian two years previously.

I loved this book.” -- Matt Haig #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Midnight Library “so so so so good…[Speech Team] is a MUST…It has all the feels and brilliant writing to boot.”  -- Elin Hilderband (on Instagram) #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Five Star Weekend A funny, gossipy and ultimately poignant novel about four Gen X teen friends turned 21st-century adults who awkwardly come back together to confront an influential teacher whose brutal remarks have haunted them all for years. In his early forties, nonprofit writer Tip Murray is just getting past the wreckage of his youth and settling into semi-humdrum married New England domesticity. Things take an unusual turn when he receives shocking news from his high school best friend, hippie farmer Natalie, that one of their former teammates from speech team, Pete, has committed suicide. Surprisingly mentioned in Pete’s final Facebook post?  A devastating comment made to him by their speech team coach, Gary Gold. Feeling nostalgic for their 80s adolescence, Tip and Nat decide to reconnect with two long lost friends from the team, haughty menswear designer Anthony and tightly wound college professor Jennifer. The reunited quartet quickly discover an unsettling thread: all were quietly wounded by Mr. Gold’s deeply cutting remarks. The silver lining? Gold is still alive, and a quick Google search shows that he has retired to Florida. There’s only one thing left to do: fly down to a posh resort to confront him. What happens next is far from what any of them could have imagined. Fueled by cringe-y confrontations and 80s nostalgia, a literary mashup of The Breakfast Club and The Big Chill, Speech Team explores what it means to take account of the pain that can suffuse a life and what it means, years on, to move forward.

Ambitious, intelligent Peggy has been told for most of her life that her job is to bind the books, not read them—but as she folds and gathers pages, her mind wanders to the opposite side of Walton Street, where the female students of Oxford’s Somerville College have a whole library at their fingertips. Maude, meanwhile, wants nothing more than what she has: to spend her days folding the pages of books in the company of the other bindery girls. She is extraordinary but vulnerable, and Peggy feels compelled to watch over her. Then refugees arrive from the war-torn cities of Belgium, sending ripples through the Oxford community and the sisters’ lives. Peggy begins to see the possibility of another future where she can educate herself and use her intellect, not just her hands. But as war and illness reshape her world, her love for a Belgian soldier—and the responsibility that comes with it—threaten to hold her back. The Bookbinder is a story about knowledge—who creates it, who can access it, and what truths get lost in the process. Much as she did in the international bestseller The Dictionary of Lost Words, Pip Williams thoughtfully explores another rarely seen slice of history through women’s eyes.]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/652137Tue, 25 Jul 2023 07:10:57 +0000Braeden ChamplinPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/652137 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Untethered Author: Ayesha Inoon Narrator: Khema De Silva Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 15 minutes Release date: June 7, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: HIGHLY COMMENDED - The ACT Book of the Year 2024 HIGHLY COMMENDED - ACT Literary Awards 2024, Fiction. Winner of the 2022 ASA/HQ Fiction Prize. A finely observed debut novel of a young Muslim woman's experience of immigration to Australia from Sri Lankan-Australian writer Ayesha Inoon. Zia secretly longs to go to university but as a young woman in a traditional Muslim family, she does what is expected of her and agrees to an arranged marriage to Rashid, a man she barely knows. Cocooned by the wealth and customs of her family, Rashid's dark moods create only the smallest of ripples in their early life together. When growing political unrest spurs them to leave Sri Lanka and immigrate to Australia, Zia is torn between fear of leaving her beloved family and the possibility of new freedoms. While on paper their new country welcomes them with open arms, their visas come with many restrictions and for the first time Zia faces isolation, poverty and an increasingly unstable marriage that forms a cage stronger than any she's known before. Determined to carve a place for herself in this new country, Zia sets out on uncertain terrain and discovers friendship, devastating loss and hope for a different future. One that asks her to consider not just who she is, but who she might become. Partially drawn from her own experiences, debut author Ayesha Inoon's novel weaves the threads of family, culture and tradition together with the uncertainty and freedom of starting anew to create a complex tapestry of identity, resilience and hope. 'A nuanced and moving exploration of what it means to leave the only home you've ever known for the promise of a better life, Ayesha Inoon's Untethered examines the crushing disappointments that can await immigrants and the ever-present question of whether they did the right thing.' - Tracey Lien, award-winning author of All That's Left Unsaid 'By turns gentle and searing, rich with life, yearning and the search for self, Ayesha Inoon's beautifully written debut novel is an unmissable read.' - Kim Lock, bestselling author of The Other Side of Beautiful & The Fancies PRAISE: 'Untethered is a study in cultural difference, written with fluidity and honesty.

Title: Robert Louis Stevenson: A BBC Radio Drama Collection: Treasure Island, Kidnapped, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and more Author: Robert Louis Stevenson Narrator: Wally K. Daly, Tony Osoba, Phyliss Logan, Stuart Mcquarrie, Michael Nardone, Jack Lowden, Madeleine Worrall, John Dougall, Nina Wadia, David Tennant, Full Cast, Peter Jeffrey, David Rintoul, Alan Cumming Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 22 minutes Release date: May 25, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: A thrilling collection of dramatisations from the classic Scottish master of tales Robert Louis Stevenson was a novelist, essayist, poet and travel writer, and created some of the most famous and influential characters in modern literature. From Long John Silver and David Balfour to Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, his figures swiftly became the shorthand for piracy, monstrous medicine, and the slave trade in America. A master of atmosphere and an enthusiast of foreign travel, Stevenson wrote countless stories which have been enjoyed in film, television and theatre adaptations throughout the years. In this fantastic collection, enjoy the ripping adventures of Treasure Island, with young Jim Hawkins discovering a treasure map in a pirate's chest and soon finding himself drawn into a world of danger and high seas adventure with the charismatic Long John Silver. The next two stories are introduced by David Tennant (Doctor Who, Good Omens): Kidnapped, the thrilling tale of one young man's escape from the Jacobite rebellions, only to be press-ganged onto a slave ship heading for the plantations of America, and The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, the terrifying story of a scientist experimenting on himself, and the terrible dark discovery he makes, featuring Stuart McQuarrie (The Crown, Shetland) and John Dougall (The Girl on the Train, Holby City). Five further stories follow: 'The Bottle Imp', a twisted tale about a magic bottle, The Master of Ballantrae, a buccaneering tale of two rival brothers, and Weir of Hermiston, Stevenson's unfinished novel of passion and rebellion in the Lowlands. In 'Olalla', a family is hiding a terrible secret in the Spanish hills, and in 'Markheim', an unusual stranger is suspiciously helpful. Finally, two fascinating pieces of non-fiction: Travels with a Donkey, Stevenson's account of attempting to travel the French mountains with only a donkey for company and Great Lives, an episode of the series featuring Stevenson as the examined life. Starring such acclaimed actors as David Tennant, Phyllis Logan (Downton Abbey, Lovejoy), Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Mary Queen of Scots) and Alan Cumming (The High Life, The Good Wife), this is a collection not to be missed by any fan of literature or adventure.

Title: Foster Dade Explores the Cosmos Author: Nash Jenkins Narrator: Will Damron Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 22 hours 0 minutes Release date: May 16, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: “[A] striking debut. . . funny, heartbreaking, and real.”––SAM LANSKY, author of Broken People          Prep meets The Secret History in this searing debut novel about a tragic scandal at an American prep school, told in the form of a literary investigation through a distinctly millennial lens          When Foster Dade arrives at Kennedy, an elite boarding school in New Jersey, the year is 2008. Barack Obama begins his first term as president; Vampire Weekend and Passion Pit bump from the newly debuted iPhone; teenagers share confidences and rumors over BlackBerry Messenger and iChat; and the internet as we know it is slowly emerging from its cocoon. So, too, is Foster emerging—a transfer student and anxious young man, Foster is stumbling through adolescence in the wake of his parents’ scandalous divorce. But Foster soon finds himself in the company of Annabeth Whittaker and Jack Albright, the twin centers of Kennedy’s social gravity, who take him under their wing to navigate the cliques and politics of the carelessly entitled.          Eighteen months later, Foster will be expelled, following a tragic scandal that leaves Kennedy and its students irreparably changed. When our nameless narrator inherits Foster’s old dorm room, he begins an epic yearslong investigation into what exactly happened. Through interviews with former classmates, Foster’s blog posts, playlists, and text archives, and the narrator’s own obsessive imagination, a story unfurls—Foster’s, yes, but also one that asks us who owns our personal narratives, and how we shape ourselves to be the heroes or villains of our own stories.         Foster Dade Explores the Cosmos is about privilege and power, the pitfalls of masculinity and its expectations, and, most distinctly, how we create the mythologies that give meaning to our lives. With his debut novel, Nash Jenkins brilliantly captures the emotional intensities of adolescence in the dizzying early years of the twenty-first century. *Includes a downloadable PDF of Foster Dade's iTunes Playlists]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/651469Tue, 16 May 2023 07:10:57 +0000Braeden ChamplinPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/651469 to listen full audiobooks.

But after a series of devastating losses, she finds herself in turmoil, with her future suddenly seeming unknown… When James announces that he will captain a ship to Africa and then the Americas for a year, it sparks a series of surprising and heartbreaking events—involving some of the darkest evils in humanity’s history and a tiny, terrified slave girl who’s brought back to England. This helpless child forces Abigail to reconsider everything she thought she knew—and will change her life forever… Now: When a shipwreck is discovered off the coast of Cumbria, local expert Rachel is brought in to investigate.

Title: A Woman's Work Author: Victoria Purman Narrator: Jennifer Vuletic Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 8 minutes Release date: April 5, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: The astonishingly rich prize of the 1956 Australian Women's Weekly cookery competition offers two women the possibility of a new kind of future, in this compassionate look at the extraordinary lives of ordinary women - our mothers and grandmothers - in a beautifully realised post-war Australia. It's 1956, and while Melbourne is in a frenzy gearing up for the Olympics, the women of Australia are cooking up a storm for their chance to win the equivalent of a year's salary in the extraordinary Australian Women's Weekly cookery contest. For two women, in particular, the prize could be life-changing. For war widow and single mum Ivy Quinn, a win would mean more time to spend with her twelve-year-old son, Raymond. Mother of five Kathleen O'Grady has no time for cooking competitions, but the prize could offer her a different kind of life for herself and her children, and the chance to control her own future. As winter turns to spring both women begin to question their lives. For Kathleen, the grinding domesticity of her work as a wife and mother no longer seems enough, while Ivy begins to realise she has the courage to make a difference for other women and tell the truth about the ghosts from her past. But is it the competition prize that would give them a new way of seeing the world - a chance to free themselves from society's expectation and change their own futures - or is it the creativity and confidence it brings? Praise for Victoria Purman 'Heart-achingly raw yet filled with the beauty of the human spirit, [The Nurses' War] is a triumph that will linger in the heart and psyche.'

The sparkling new novel from the author of No Hard Feelings. Getting over someone is not that difficult. All you have to do is focus on every negative thing about them for the rest of your life until you forget to stop actively hoping for their slow and painful death, then get a haircut ... Serial monogamist Marnie is running late to her own identity crisis. After a decade of twisting herself into different versions of the ideal girlfriend, she's swearing off relationships for good. Forever. Done. No more, no thank you. Pretty inconvenient time to meet Isaac: certified dreamboat and the only man who has ever truly got her. It's cool, though, they're just friends, he's got someone else, and she has more important things to worry about. Like who she is, what she wants, and what the hell she ever saw in the love(s) of her life in the first place.

They may not always see eye to eye, and they might drive each other crazy, but they can't do without each other. But life's got a lot more complicated since they were 22, when the only things they carried around were handbags. Now, in midlife, they've got more baggage than the average airport carousel. Caroline's been dumped by her politician husband of 10 years, Alistair; single mother Ruth is struggling with her monosyllabic teenage son; and Fiona's walked out on her husband Roddy - and moved in with Caroline, in her poky top-floor Marchmont flat. Over the course of several manic Midsummers, crisis-ridden Christmases and hopeful Hogmanays, they grapple with ex-husbands and new lovers; broodiness and babies; divorce, dementia and alcoholism - only to find themselves climbing their biggest mountain yet. Aided by Roddy, Fiona's elderly mum Gladys, and Caroline's larger-than-life dad Hector, they set about forging their own new, strangely shaped, thoroughly 21st Century family... Written by Hilary Lyon, who also stars as Caroline, this funny, poignant sitcom is a love letter to female friendship - and to one of Europe's loveliest capital cities, Edinburgh. Phyllis Logan and Adie Allen co-star as Fiona and Ruth, with Peter Capaldi and Stuart McQuarrie as Alistair, Robin Cameron as Roddy, June Watson as Gladys and David Rintoul as Hector.

Eine Familiengeschichte zwischen drei Kulturen, voller Glanz, Tragik und Gewalt. Als der Berliner Komponist Kaan zu einem Stipendienaufenthalt nach Istanbul reist, geht seine Welt entzwei: Deutlich und unerwartet überkommt ihn das Trauma seiner Großmutter, deren Familie bei dem Völkermord an den Armeniern ausgelöscht wurde.

In allem war für den Jungen Musik.

As war ends, across the world people are trying to heal and recover. But Eleanor still feels broken. The loss of her beloved brother, killed just days before the Armistice was signed, feels impossibly unjust. Spending her time in the neglected garden behind their house, she fears her heart will never recover. Then her father hires a man to help restore the garden to its former glory. Gruff, handsome Yorkshireman Jack comes from a totally different world to Eleanor, but he understands the nature of her grief more than anyone else seems to.

Marin, too, is in need of a fresh start, so when Rebecca begs her to let them move to the picturesque village of Goswell on the Cumbrian coast, Marin impulsively agrees.

Title: [Spanish] - El mundo Author: Juan José Millás Narrator: Juan José Millás Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 26 minutes Release date: February 2, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: LA NOVELA MÁS PERSONAL DE JUAN JOSÉ MILLÁS, GANADORA DEL PREMIO NACIONAL DE NARRATIVA Y DEL PREMIO PLANETA «Guarda en sus páginas verdades sobrecogedoras, auténticas y emocionantes sobre el poder de las palabras». Jesús Ruiz Mantilla, El País «El mejor Millás». Soledad Puértolas «Qué habría ocurrido si aquel día lejano de mi infancia no hubiera regresado al sótano por el mismo agujero por el que había salido de él. Tal vez la vida hubiera mantenido siempre aquel brillo o aquella fiebre». «Hay libros que, al modo del automóvil que se salta un semáforo, se cruzan violentamente en tu existencia. Este es de los que se saltan el semáforo —explica Millás—. Me habían encargado un reportaje sobre mí mismo, de forma que comencé a seguirme. Un día me dije: “Mi padre tenía un taller de aparatos de electromedicina”. Entonces se me apareció el taller, conmigo y con mi padre dentro. Él estaba probando un bisturí eléctrico sobre un filete. De súbito, me dijo: “Fíjate, Juanjo, cauteriza la herida en el momento mismo de producirla”. Comprendí que la escritura, como el bisturí, cicatrizaba las heridas en el instante de abrirlas e intuí por qué era escritor. Acababa de ser arrollado por una novela». Ganadora del Premio Nacional de Narrativa y del Premio Planeta, alabada por la crítica y los lectores, El mundo narra con maestría el tránsito a la vida adulta de un adolescente, pero también el descubrimiento de una manera original e imaginativa de observar y entender la realidad. La crítica ha dicho: «Para no hacerlo sentir incómodo, finjamos que Millás no es uno de nuestros mejores escritores». Sergi Pàmies, La Vanguardia «La escritura de Juan José Millás, el Buster Keaton de nuestra literatura, es única e inimitable». J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, Cultura/s (La Vanguardia) «Una mirada transgresora y llena de sutileza que transforma la realidad, la reinterpreta y la ficcionaliza».

Title: [Spanish] - El mundo Author: Juan José Millás Narrator: Juan José Millás Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 26 minutes Release date: February 2, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: LA NOVELA MÁS PERSONAL DE JUAN JOSÉ MILLÁS, GANADORA DEL PREMIO NACIONAL DE NARRATIVA Y DEL PREMIO PLANETA «Guarda en sus páginas verdades sobrecogedoras, auténticas y emocionantes sobre el poder de las palabras». Jesús Ruiz Mantilla, El País «El mejor Millás». Soledad Puértolas «Qué habría ocurrido si aquel día lejano de mi infancia no hubiera regresado al sótano por el mismo agujero por el que había salido de él. Tal vez la vida hubiera mantenido siempre aquel brillo o aquella fiebre». «Hay libros que, al modo del automóvil que se salta un semáforo, se cruzan violentamente en tu existencia. Este es de los que se saltan el semáforo —explica Millás—. Me habían encargado un reportaje sobre mí mismo, de forma que comencé a seguirme. Un día me dije: “Mi padre tenía un taller de aparatos de electromedicina”. Entonces se me apareció el taller, conmigo y con mi padre dentro. Él estaba probando un bisturí eléctrico sobre un filete. De súbito, me dijo: “Fíjate, Juanjo, cauteriza la herida en el momento mismo de producirla”. Comprendí que la escritura, como el bisturí, cicatrizaba las heridas en el instante de abrirlas e intuí por qué era escritor. Acababa de ser arrollado por una novela». Ganadora del Premio Nacional de Narrativa y del Premio Planeta, alabada por la crítica y los lectores, El mundo narra con maestría el tránsito a la vida adulta de un adolescente, pero también el descubrimiento de una manera original e imaginativa de observar y entender la realidad. La crítica ha dicho: «Para no hacerlo sentir incómodo, finjamos que Millás no es uno de nuestros mejores escritores». Sergi Pàmies, La Vanguardia «La escritura de Juan José Millás, el Buster Keaton de nuestra literatura, es única e inimitable». J. A. Masoliver Ródenas, Cultura/s (La Vanguardia) «Una mirada transgresora y llena de sutileza que transforma la realidad, la reinterpreta y la ficcionaliza».

In an act of desperation, she finds the one guy in her small town who is guaranteed to shock everyone to be her fake boyfriend. It doesn’t need to be for long—she just needs to buy herself enough time to recover from her mother’s last disastrous fix-up. It’s really a fool-proof plan. But when a few staged kisses lead to some very real feelings, she realizes she might be in over her head. Ryker Masella has been patiently waiting for the perfect opportunity to get Ryleigh to take him—and his numerous attempts at asking her out—seriously. When she grabs him and kisses him in front of her family to prove a point, he’s more than on board. But when she proposes a fake—and temporary—relationship, he’s 100% on board. After all, she might be all about pretending, but he sees it as a way for Ryleigh to truly see the real him. Fake flirting and orchestrated dates quickly bring on real feelings. For Ryker, they’ve always been there, and he’ll be as patient as he needs to be. She might have asked him to save her from her family, but what he wants is to save her from herself.

Es el vehículo de un millonario, pero al volante solo encuentran a un criado en estado de conmoción, incapaz de explicar cómo o por qué ha cometido este crimen. Y tampoco puede prever el oscuro drama que está a punto de desencadenarse. Entre mansiones lujosas, negocios depredadores y tramas políticas, tres vidas se entrelazan peligrosamente: Sunny es el rico heredero, un playboy que sueña con eclipsar a su padre; Ajay es su criado y hombre para todo; y Neda es la periodista inquisitiva que se debate entre su ética y sus deseos. Frente a una trama arrolladora alimentada por el placer, la codicia, la violencia y la venganza, estos tres personajes se encuentran atados entre sí por unos lazos que pueden servirles de redención o destruirlos para siempre. Mitad suspense, mitad saga familiar, La Edad del Vicio lleva al lector desde los arrabales de Uttar Pradesh a la energética metrópoli de Nueva Delhi, con una trama adictiva de gángsters y amantes, falsos amigos, romances secretos y corrupción. Un atracón de gran literatura que se disfruta por puro placer. La crítica ha dicho: «El arranque de esta adictiva novela es ya un espectáculo que avanza los placeres lectores que depara su lectura. Una obra vertiginosa y magistral: [...] un mundo». Ana Bretón, El Mundo «Lo que Deepti Kapoor ha hecho es meterlos en una coctelera, prenderles fuego y lanzarlos por un barranco. [...] Logra acelerarnos el corazón en una India sin corazón». Antonio Lozano, La Vanguardia «Bombea con fuerza la sangre fría de Highsmith. [...] Contar una historia, escribirla o escupirla. Rociar al lector con sangre fría». Karina Sainz Borgo, ABC «Uno de los fenómenos literarios del año. [...] Lo tiene todo para atrapar: crímenes, corrupción, tiranía, conspiraciones, desenfreno y, en pequeñas dosis, amor, admiración y lealtad. Un rompecabezas». Tereixa Constenla, El País «Todo aspirante a novelista debería leer esta novela». Stephen King «Una novela de novelas [...]. Extraordinaria». Marina Sanmartín, El Periódico de España «La autora ha apuntado a un objetivo, y lo ha pulverizado. ¡Viva el nuevo Puzo!». Dwight Garner, El Cultural «Un atracón literario». Lola Medina, White Paper By «Un thriller épico [que] hará las delicias de los amantes de Succesion y Los Soprano». Andrea González, Ronda Iberia «Un thriller de lujo [...] que cabalga hábilmente entre la ficción comercial y la literaria [...]. Con ecos El Padrino [y de] Slumdog Millionaire [...], es fácil ver por qué se le ha prestado tanta atención». The New York Times «Hacía muchísimo tiempo que no me enfrentaba a una novela tan larga y esta me ha hecho perderle el miedo a la extensión. Léanla antes de que estrenen la serie».

Cada una ha presentado un frente valiente para disimular heridas profundas, a menudo sin comprender el amor sacrificial de una madre por su hija. La pequeña Carolyn Arundel siempre tuvo un vínculo especial con su abuelita Marta, debido a que la tuberculosis mantuvo a su madre, Hildie, alejada ocasionalmente durante meses. Pero cuando Carolyn va a la universidad durante la turbulenta época de la guerra de Vietnam, la golpea la tragedia y ella corta todos los lazos familiares, desapareciendo en la cultura del amor libre en San Francisco. Ella reemerge dos años después, perdida y embarazada. Con la ayuda de sus padres, logra construir una vida para su hija antes de enamorarse del guapo y encantador Mitch Hastings. Spanning the 1950s to the 21st century, this dramatic conclusion to a two-part saga explores the lives of four generations of women. Each has put up a brave front to mask deep hurts, often not understanding the sacrificial love of a mother for her daughter. Little Carolyn Arundel has always had a special bond with her Oma Marta, especially since tuberculosis took her mother, Hildie, away for months at a time. But when Carolyn goes to college during the turbulent Vietnam War, tragedy strikes and she cuts all family ties, disappearing into the free love culture of San Francisco.

Title: [Spanish] - La luz perdida Author: Nino Haratischwili Narrator: Ariana Martínez Moreno Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 24 hours 58 minutes Release date: January 19, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: «LA SUCESORA DE TOLSTÓI». NeueZürcherZeitung «Una epopeya georgiana fulminante» (Kultur) por la autora de La octava vida (para Brilka), ganadora de los premios Anna Seghers, Literaturpreis «Text & Sprache» y Bertolt Brecht, con más de un millón de lectores y traducida a veintiocho idiomas El siglo xx llega a su fin y en la Georgia soviética los gritos de autodeterminación se oyen cada vez más alto. El destino de cuatro niñas radicalmente diferentes se ve unido por el patio que separa sus casas en un barrio de Tbilisi. Juntas, Dina, Nene, Ira y Keto, la narradora, navegan el final de la infancia y el comienzo de la vida adulta, experimentan su primer gran amor y se enfrentan a la violencia y la precariedad que estallan con la independencia del país y la llegada de una turbulenta democracia que acabará por abrir una brecha ineludible entre sus familias. Con ecos de Elena Ferrante, La luz perdida es una epopeya de amistad y traición en el contexto de un país que empieza a dar sus primeros pasos, una revolución que arrasa con la juventud y una constante lucha contra un futuro de separación y dolor. La crítica ha dicho: «Sencillamente, monumental. Una auténtica epopeya, [...] una obra de las que atrapan irremisiblemente, donde la vida más común se revela un drama de dimensiones épicas». Ana Bretón, El Mundo «Por fin un libro en el que sumergirse de lleno, que te mantiene en vilo toda la noche, te hace reír y llorar. [...] Pura felicidad de lectura. Es mi libro favorito del año». Daniel Kaiser, NDR Kultur «Una de las voces más importantes de la literatura alemana». Die Zeit «Haratischwili habla pausadamente, con fluidez e intención. [La luz perdida] es una colorida mezcla de familias residentes, con mucho humor». María-Paz López, La Vanguardia «Nino Haratischwili, la escritora de la pesadilla postsoviética. [...] La luz perdida es una crónica brutal». Carmen Valero, El Mundo «El drama de sus personajes me tocó profundamente, porque habla de ellos y también habla de mí». Leonardo Padura, El Día «Una novela que te devora y que exige ser devorada. La narración de Nino Haratischwili es tan vívida y despiadada, tan apasionante y densa, que es imposible dejar de leer. [...] Una obra furiosa que ilumina las sombras». Katja Weise, NDR «Tal vez la única voz joven de la literatura en lengua alemana que realmente domina el arte de la narración y no aspira a nada más que a narrar, con un estilo frenético pero también muy orgánico y sereno. [...] Una novela actual y explosiva». Hannah Lühmann, Die Welt «Entre el thriller político, la novela negra, la novela romántica y un minucioso análisis social: una experiencia de lectura fulminante». Judith Hoffmann, Ö1 «Una estrella y un fenómeno extraordinario de la literatura contemporánea alemana. [...] Pocos escritores pueden entrelazar la historia y la ficción de forma tan natural como ella. [...] Una vez que empiezas a leer, no quieres parar». Christoph Schröder, Journal Frankfurt «La novela del momento». S. von Oppen, Deutschlandfunk Kultur «Una escritora ardiente y sensible que tiene el vigor de Isabel Allende». Michael Kluger, Frankfurter Neue Presse «La Dostoievski actual, sus obras son una auténtica joya. [...] En un futuro se estudiarán».

La crítica ha dicho: «Sencillamente, monumental. Una auténtica epopeya, [...] una obra de las que atrapan irremisiblemente, donde la vida más común se revela un drama de dimensiones épicas». Ana Bretón, El Mundo «Por fin un libro en el que sumergirse de lleno, que te mantiene en vilo toda la noche, te hace reír y llorar. [...] Pura felicidad de lectura. Es mi libro favorito del año». Daniel Kaiser, NDR Kultur «Una de las voces más importantes de la literatura alemana». Die Zeit «Haratischwili habla pausadamente, con fluidez e intención. [La luz perdida] es una colorida mezcla de familias residentes, con mucho humor». María-Paz López, La Vanguardia «Nino Haratischwili, la escritora de la pesadilla postsoviética. [...] La luz perdida es una crónica brutal». Carmen Valero, El Mundo «El drama de sus personajes me tocó profundamente, porque habla de ellos y también habla de mí». Leonardo Padura, El Día «Una novela que te devora y que exige ser devorada. La narración de Nino Haratischwili es tan vívida y despiadada, tan apasionante y densa, que es imposible dejar de leer. [...] Una obra furiosa que ilumina las sombras». Katja Weise, NDR «Tal vez la única voz joven de la literatura en lengua alemana que realmente domina el arte de la narración y no aspira a nada más que a narrar, con un estilo frenético pero también muy orgánico y sereno. [...] Una novela actual y explosiva». Hannah Lühmann, Die Welt «Entre el thriller político, la novela negra, la novela romántica y un minucioso análisis social: una experiencia de lectura fulminante». Judith Hoffmann, Ö1 «Una estrella y un fenómeno extraordinario de la literatura contemporánea alemana. [...] Pocos escritores pueden entrelazar la historia y la ficción de forma tan natural como ella. [...] Una vez que empiezas a leer, no quieres parar». Christoph Schröder, Journal Frankfurt «La novela del momento». S. von Oppen, Deutschlandfunk Kultur «Una escritora ardiente y sensible que tiene el vigor de Isabel Allende». Michael Kluger, Frankfurter Neue Presse «La Dostoievski actual, sus obras son una auténtica joya. [...] En un futuro se estudiarán». Yurena Guerra, MEW Magazine]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/german-der-grune-see-by-maeve-binchy--65303927https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/647911 to listen full audiobooks.

Una trepidante saga familiar llena de secretos, peripecias, aventuras amorosas, turbios negocios y crímenes. El ancho mundo narra las aventuras, desventuras, peripecias y secretos de los Pelletier, una familia propietaria de una fábrica de jabones en Beirut, ciudad bajo influencia francesa, con la Guerra de Indochina y el París de la posguerra y la reconstrucción como telón de fondo. Y todo con un toque de exotismo y varios asesinatos. Lemaitre nos cuenta tres historias de amor, dos procesiones, la historia de Buda y Confucio, las peripecias de un periodista ambicioso, una muerte trágica, la vida del gato Joseph, los maltratos de una esposa insoportable, la corrupción de los gobiernos, un descenso a los infiernos... Una novela magistral, luminosa y oscura a la vez, tierna y dura, llena de vueltas, cautivante, que juega deliciosamente con los códigos del folletín.

Estamos en el gran mundo de las sagas familiares, en la tradición de Roger Martin du Gard o Jules Romains.» Le Nouvel Observateur «El ancho mundo ofrece una visión de la Guerra de Indochina (1946-1954), la guerra de guerrillas en la jungla, las atrocidades de ambos bandos, los atentados del Viet Minh en Saigón, uno de los polos geográficos de la historia, junto con París.

Title: [Spanish] - Cuando ya no quede nadie Author: Esther López Barceló Narrator: Isa Puchol Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 14 minutes Release date: January 12, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: ¿Cuántas décadas de silencio puede resistir una familia? Una ambiciosa novela sobre la memoria histórica, el amor y la fortaleza de las mujeres en la posguerra. Ofelia acaba de perder a su padre y, tras recibir la noticia, regresa a su ciudad natal. Una vez allí, no solo se encuentra con el hogar de su infancia, sino también con un pasado familiar que desconocía. En el funeral ha aparecido un misterioso francés que resulta saber mucho más de su padre de lo que ella nunca supo. Será entonces cuando Ofelia se pregunte quiénes fueron realmente sus padres, a los que siempre vio como un humilde trabajador ferroviario y una portera de un edificio señorial. Lo que está a punto de descubrir podría desbaratar por completo su percepción sobre la vida, su familia y la historia de nuestro país. Con una escritura que emociona y estremece, Esther López Barceló disipa esa niebla espesa que cubrió durante lustros el recuerdo de los momentos más duros de la Dictadura.

Sin ellas, la Memoria no existe. Es una historia de historias. Brillante».

Title: I Stopped Time Author: Jane Davis Narrator: Philip Franks, Clare Corbett Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 29 minutes Release date: January 5, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: What if the villain of your childhood turned out to be someone really rather extraordinary? A disgraced politician, Sir James Hastings is living out his retirement in a secluded Surrey village. He is unmoved by his centenarian mother's death - a woman he emotionally buried upon her abandonment. Raised by his father, a charismatic war-hero turned racing driver, the young James, torn between self-blame and longing, eventually dismissed her. But when he inherits her life's work - an incredible photography collection spanning six decades - he is forced to confront the realization that his version of the past isn't even half the story... Presenting a family that is beautifully flawed, brimming with affection, and inimitably human, 'I Stopped Time' is perfect for fans of Tracy Chevalier, Audrey Niffenegger and Ali Smith. Hailed by The Bookseller as 'One to Watch', Jane Davis writes thought-provoking literary page turners with a strong commercial edge. Her first novel 'Half-Truths and White Lies', won a national award established with the aim of finding 'the next Joanne Harris'.

Title: [Spanish] - El corazón del daño Author: María Negroni Narrator: Mariana Maciel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 58 minutes Release date: January 5, 2023 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: «Mi madre: la ocupación más ferviente y más dañina de mi vida.» «La prosa de Calvino es el único antecedente que se me ocurre de los textos sofisticados de María Negroni. Uno la lee con la rara certeza de que esto es literatura, una secuencia de enunciados apasionados y tristes que nunca abandonan la singular elegancia de su dicción.» Richard Howard, The Paris Review Recopilación privada; ajuste de cuentas con una madre desesperada y desesperante; desmontaje de una vida que va de la simbiosis al enfrentamiento, de la huida de la casa familiar a la clandestinidad revolucionaria, de la migración al descubrimiento de sí a través de la escritura, El corazón del daño es un dispositivo literario abierto y complejo que busca, en palabras de su autora, ser fielmente 'un censo de escenas ilegibles'. Con una narrativa directa y voluptuosa a la vez, Negroni recurre a la nota íntima, la observación sagaz, la apostilla urbana, la crónica política, la balada del exilio y al canto lúgubre del duelo para escribir 'un pequeño libro de mi puño y cuerpo, seguramente errado en su tristeza'. La crítica ha dicho... «Contundencia, rabia musical, una exclusión que alumbra, lenguaje que desborda la frontera entre prosa y poesía, saber del ritmo. El corazón del daño es casi un testimonio literario, autoficción cosida con el hilo de la literatura, y sobre todo el largo e intrincado recorrido de formación de una escritora.» Mario Nosotti, Revista Ñ «Una novela íntima y extraordinaria en la que explora la ambigua relación entre vida y escritura. En El corazón del daño lo que prevalece es el 'modo Negroni' que consiste en romper siempre algo, produciendo una especie de cortocircuito en la lengua que arrasa con las categorías y derrama sobre la textualidad la belleza de una opacidad que rehabilita el esfuerzo por agotar el decir.» Silvina Friera, Página 12 «Como Marguerite Duras a lo largo de su obra, como Vuong, Negroni indaga en la figura de su madre. Lo hace a través de oraciones que funcionan como párrafos brevísimos -cada oración un párrafo-, verdaderos latigazos del lenguaje.» Carolina Esses, La Nación «Un libro increíble. un salto al vacío tan impresionante, tan desgarrador y tan hermoso que nos deja sin aire.» Alejandro Tantanián «El corazón del daño es un réquiem y un aleluya, un canto en el que lo importante casi no tiene nombre porque todo es carne.» Esther Peñas «Una misteriosa configuración de presencia y ausencia. Un intrincado paisaje simbólico de la identidad, donde es posible atisbar la peligrosa y siempre elusiva frontera entre realidad e irrealidad.» Nicole Brossard «Con una precisión magnífica y una especie de impersonal rigor, María Negroni revela, sin decirnos exactamente cómo, el amoroso accidente, la amorosa deficiencia de existir, su poético desajuste.» Luis Chitarroni «Negroni escribe como nadie y lee lo que nadie. Es la descendiente única de un linaje rarísimo.» Miguel Dalmaroni «Esta novela es a su vez testimonio, ensayo, pensamiento filosófico. También una reflexión honda sobre la infancia, el sentido último de la existencia y la extrañeza de la vida. (...) La de Negroni es una escritura que se construye en base a miniaturas preciosistas y se vuelve inmensa.» Verónica Abdala, Clarín]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/651457Thu, 05 Jan 2023 07:10:57 +0000Braeden ChamplinPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/651457 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Shoes and Stockings: A Collection of Short Stories Author: Louisa May Alcott Narrator: Carolyn Frances Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 47 minutes Release date: December 31, 2022 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: A collection of 18 pieces of writing, Shoes and Stockings by Louisa May Alcott comes with stories about war, love and other important topics, making readers laugh at times, bringing them to tears at other times, and always getting them to contemplate. Louisa May Alcott was one of the most prolific American writers of the 19th century. She wrote novels and poems, and she published her letters written to her family while she was recovering from typhoid after she had started work as a nurse during the Civil War.She also wrote critical articles about hospital management and about the problems she encountered while she was working as a nurse, but what made her name widely known was her short stories. Many of the female characters in the Shoes and Stockings stories are in fact figures inspired by the author's own life. Alcott's work was largely influenced by her education and her path in life – in her youth, she received education not only from her father, but also from Nathaniel Hawthorne, Ralph Waldo Emerson and other influential figures of the age who were all family friends of the Alcotts. Louisa May had to start earning her own money at a very young age – she worked as a seamstress, a governess and a teacher, too, experiences that appear in her writing as well. She was also an abolitionist, one of the first feminist writers of her times and a supporter of women's suffrage. She never married and never had children, but she knew and loved children – affection she expressed in her numerous children's stories. This collection contains stories written for adults, young and old alike, and it includes two of Alcott's most popular pieces, a light-hearted story entitled Kitty's Class Day and Aunt Kipp, another masterfully written story about family and money (or rather, the lack of it).]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650419Sat, 31 Dec 2022 07:10:57 +0000Braeden ChamplinPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650419 to listen full audiobooks.

Two nachtmares. And three geriatric defenders straight out of the retirement village. These are my ducks, and they are not in a row. It wasn’t until I lost everything—my home, my marriage, even my career—that I started to wonder if our “family curse” might be more than an unfortunate turn of phrase. Now turning forty-five, the age at which every woman in my family dies, I need answers not only for myself but for my two daughters. And I’ll see every specialist in the country if that’s what it takes. But when a lifelong friend discovers a link between my strange family history and an abandoned estate, I can't pass up the opportunity to learn what happened before the death certificates started piling up. What I find may mean it’s too late to change my fate, but that doesn’t mean I won’t die trying. If there’s a curse on our family, I’m coming for it with everything I’ve got. Might as well make use of these raging hormones and decades of suppressed emotions while I still can… The time for surviving is over. It’s time to start living.

Title: [Spanish] - La familia Author: Sara Mesa Narrator: Marta Martín Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 15 minutes Release date: December 14, 2022 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: La contundente radiografía de una familia, de sus heridas latentes, fragilidades, contradicciones y flaquezas.  «¡En esta familia no hay secretos!», proclama al inicio de este libro Damián, el padre, un hombre de ideas e ideales fijos obsesionado con la rectitud y la pedagogía. Pero esa casa sin secretos está en realidad llena de grietas, y la opresión que se respira entre sus paredes terminará creando vías de escape, códigos clandestinos, ocultaciones, fingimientos y mentiras. Formada por dos niñas, dos niños, una madre y un padre, esta familia en apariencia normal, de clase trabajadora y llena de buenas intenciones, es la protagonista de una novela coral que abarca varias décadas y en cuyas historias laten el deseo de libertad y la crítica a los pilares que tradicionalmente han sostenido, y todavía sostienen en gran medida, la institución familiar: autoritarismo y obediencia, vergüenza y silencio.   Sara Mesa vuelve a demostrar que posee un ojo clínico para desnudar comportamientos humanos, detectar heridas latentes y retratar en toda su complejidad la fragilidad, las contradicciones y las flaquezas que nos conforman. Este libro es una nueva vuelta de tuerca a la construcción de uno de los universos literarios más potentes de las letras españolas actuales y la confirmación de un talento que no deja de crecer. «Desde que fue finalista del Premio Anagrama con Cuatro por cuatro, Sara Mesa viene explorando en su narrativa un territorio moral pantanoso, un reino de la ambigüedad en el que la bondad y lo siniestro, lo aceptable y lo reprobable, la placidez y la amenaza se mezclan y transforman entre sí para inducir en el lector un desasosiego activo» (Domingo Ródenas, El Periódico).  «Me fascina su capacidad para cartografiar la condición humana a través de los perdedores, del abuso de poder, de los lugares opresivos y aislados, de la degradación lenta y continuada. Por eso me interesan sus novelas: porque son siempre ásperas, amargas, sinceras, oscuras, nada complacientes, y lentas como una gota malaya» (Ángeles López, La Razón). «La escritura de Mesa reivindica en cada línea su estricto cariz literario»  (Manuel Hidalgo, El Mundo). «Una escritora muy sólida. Una escritura serena y vibrante a un tiempo»  (Francisco Solano, El País). «Mesa escribe en una prosa libre de lugares comunes, pulida y precisa»  (Martín Schifino, Letras Libres). «Mientras andas atrapado en la telaraña de Sara Mesa, te preguntas cómo lo hace, de qué está hecha la substancia esa que te adhiere a sus libros, ese alquitrán que te mancha mientras los lees y luego, horas y días después de cerrar el ejemplar» (Carlos Zanón, El País).]]>https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650928Wed, 14 Dec 2022 07:10:57 +0000Braeden ChamplinPlease visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/650928 to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Blue: A Novel Author: Emmelie Prophète Narrator: Krystel Roche Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 23 minutes Release date: January 1, 2022 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: An award-winning Haitian novel about silence, beauty, and the solidarity of tears. Airports are distillations of the world. I like thinking of them that way. The hope of leaving and the desire to come home, existing side by side. Any voyage is possible. My mind flies off toward the blue province once again. I don’t know, anymore, why I always associate it with blue. It isn’t even my favorite color. Traveling alone from Miami to Port-au-Prince, our narrator finds comfort at the airport. She feels free to ponder the silence that surrounds her homeland, her mother, her aunts, and her own inner thoughts. Between two places, she sees how living in poverty keeps women silent, forging their identities around practicality and resilience. From a distance, she is drawn inevitably homeward toward her family and the glittering blue Caribbean Sea. Blue comes alive through vivid images crowding the page, just as memories do in real life, as if the author is trying to sort through them, to come to grips with her own emotional conflict.

Title: Blue: A Novel Author: Emmelie Prophète Narrator: Krystel Roche Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 23 minutes Release date: January 1, 2022 Genres: Drama Publisher's Summary: An award-winning Haitian novel about silence, beauty, and the solidarity of tears. Airports are distillations of the world. I like thinking of them that way. The hope of leaving and the desire to come home, existing side by side. Any voyage is possible. My mind flies off toward the blue province once again. I don’t know, anymore, why I always associate it with blue. It isn’t even my favorite color. Traveling alone from Miami to Port-au-Prince, our narrator finds comfort at the airport. She feels free to ponder the silence that surrounds her homeland, her mother, her aunts, and her own inner thoughts. Between two places, she sees how living in poverty keeps women silent, forging their identities around practicality and resilience. From a distance, she is drawn inevitably homeward toward her family and the glittering blue Caribbean Sea. Blue comes alive through vivid images crowding the page, just as memories do in real life, as if the author is trying to sort through them, to come to grips with her own emotional conflict. Balancing the pain and anger are spiritual bonds that connect the author to the women who have come before her, who have created her, and with Haiti itself, her motherland. No amount of glittering opportunity up north can prevent her from finding her way home.]]>305cleanfullhttps://www.spreaker.com/episode/german-wodurch-die-menschen-leben-wovon-die-menschen-leben-by-leo-tolstoi--65303789https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/654742 to listen full audiobooks.
