Title: England and Other Stories Author: Graham Swift Narrator: Beth Eyre, Sandra Duncan, Alex Jennings Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 56 minutes Release date: March 31, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A collection of new stories from the Booker-prize winning author of Last Orders, and of the Sunday Times bestseller Mothering Sunday. Meet Dr Shah, who has never been to India, and Mrs Kaminski, on her way to Poland via A&E. Meet Holly and Polly, who have come to their own Anglo-Irish understanding; Charlie and Don, who have seen the docks turn into Docklands; Daisy Baker, terrified of Yorkshire; and Johnny Dewhurst, stranded on Exmoor. Binding these stories together is Graham Swift's affectionate but unflinching instinct for the story of us all: an evocation of that mysterious body that is a nation, deepened by the palpable sense of our individual bodies finding or losing their way in the nationless territory of birth, ageing, sex and death.   Praise for Mothering Sunday: 'Bathed in light; and even when tragedy strikes, it blazes irresistibly… Swift’s small fiction feels like a masterpiece’ Guardian  ‘Alive with sensuousness and sensuality … wonderfully accomplished, it is an achievement’ Sunday Times ‘From start to finish Swift’s is a novel of stylish brilliance and quiet narrative verve. The archly modulated, precise prose (a hybrid of Henry Green and Kazuo Ishiguro) is a glory to read. Now 66, Swift is a writer at the very top of his game’ Evening Standard ‘Mothering Sunday is a powerful, philosophical and exquisitely observed novel about the lives we lead, and the parallel lives – the parallel stories – we can never know … It may just be Swift’s best novel yet’ Observer Graham Swift Thu, 31 Mar 2022 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/560382 thebookvoice.com 7:56:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/560382]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Amy Levy - A Short Story Collection Author: Amy Levy Narrator: Marie-Pierre, Ghizela Rowe, David Shaw-Parker Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 21 minutes Release date: November 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Émile Édouard Charles Antoine Zola was born in Paris on 2nd April 1840. When he was 3 the family moved to Aix-en-Provence in the southeast. At 7 his father died, leaving the family on a meagre pension. In 1858, they returned to Paris. His mother had planned a law career for Émile, but he failed his baccalauréat examination twice.He took jobs as a clerk in a shipping firm and then in the sales department for the publisher Hachette. Zola also wrote political, literary and art reviews for newspapers. As a writer Zola wrote numerous short stories, essays, plays and novels. When ‘La Confession de Claude’ was published and received the attention of the police Hachette fired him. He continued to write and after his first major novel, ‘Thérèse Raquin’ (1867), Zola started the series called ‘Les Rougon-Macquart’, a carefully planned twenty-volume history of a single family under the reign of Napoléon III. With the publication of ‘L'Assommoir’, Zola became wealthy. His subsequent works, ‘Nana’ and La Débâcle fared even better, increasing both fame and bank balance. He was now a figurehead of the literary bourgeoisie. However, despite several nominations, he was never elected to the prestigious Académie Française.The infamous Dreyfus Affair infuriated Zola who wrote in defence of Alfred Dreyfus. His plan was to be prosecuted for libel so that the truth would be exposed. It went badly wrong. Zola was convicted for criminal libel in February 1898 and removed from the Legion of Honour. The judgment was overturned but a new suit began. Zola fled to England only to return when an Amnesty was granted. Zola said of the affair, "The truth is on the march, and nothing shall stop it."Émile Zola died on 29th September 1902 of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by an improperly ventilated chimney. On 4th June 1908 Zola’s remains were transferred to the Panthéon, where he shares a crypt with Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.

Title: Couching at the Door Author: D.K. Broster Narrator: Ghizela Rowe, Richard Mitchley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 2 minutes Release date: November 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky was born in Moscow on 11th November, 1821 to distinguished multi-ethnic parents from a Lithuanian background. His childhood years were at the family home in hospital grounds which also contained an orphanage, an insane asylum and a cemetery for criminals. The young Fyodor often disobeyed his father by talking to the ill in the hospital gardens. His health was compromised at age 9 when he experienced his first epileptic fit. By the time he was a teenager both parents had died and he was now enrolled in a military academy where he graduated and eventually became a Lieutenant in 1842. He left military service the next year.In 1846 he published his first novel ‘Poor Cow’ to great literary acclaim. His next was unable to emulate that success but his short stories helped provide an income. Life as an author was definitely difficult. As he began his next work he was arrested and incarcerated for treason and participation in the political and literary Petrashevsky Circle. Although the case was weak and unjustified he was sentenced to 4 years of hard labour followed by 5 years of military service in a Siberian regiment. Despite the undoubted hardships and setbacks in his life, and whether they helped or hindered his writing, his talents produced many exceptional works of literature including ‘Crime and Punishment’, ‘The Idiot’ and ‘The Brothers Karamazov’. Dostoevsky’s ability to get under the skin of his characters and show the inner workings of their mind was hugely influential and ahead of its time. Interwoven with this was the influence of the broader social, spiritual and political forces at work in a person's psyche. Fyodor Dostoevsky struggled financially and remained in poor health for much of his adult life. He died from a lung haemorrhage on 9th February, 1881.An Honest Thief. In this tale a man buys a down-and-out a drink and so begins a tale of friendship, of manipulation and ultimately of the truth. D.K.

Title: In the Mist Author: Mary E Penn Narrator: Elliot Fitzpatrick, Ghizela Rowe Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 33 minutes Release date: November 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Victor Marie Hugo was born on 26th February 1802 in Besançon, France. There can be no doubt that Hugo is ranked as the greatest of French authors and poets. In addition to this he fought against social injustice throughout his life and from his frequent elections to the French Assembly.Hugo published his first novel, Han d’Islande (1823), the year after his marriage and so began an immense canon of fiction and poetry not only for France but to World literature. He was elected to the Académie Française in 1841 and the same year came a peerage and entrance to the Higher Chamber as a pair de France, where he spoke against the death penalty, social injustice and in favour of press freedom. In the years leading up to the Revolution of 1848 Hugo began to lean towards Republicanism and greater freedoms. With the formation of the Second Republic, he was again elected to the Assembly.When Napoleon III seized power in 1851, and established an anti-parliamentary constitution, Hugo openly declared him a traitor to France. This, of course, meant exile where he remained until 1870. In exile he published his greatest work ‘Les Misérables’, and further widely honoured collections of poetry.Returning home he was again elected to the National Assembly and the Senate. It was the time of the Franco-Prussian war and with Paris under siege and food ever more scarce, he wrote in his diary that he was now "eating the unknown".Later he was instrumental in strengthening the rights of artists and copyright, steps which led to the international protections of the Berne Convention. Victor Hugo died on 22nd May 1885, aged 83. In ‘Claude Gueux’ one prisoner dares to challenge a system and its cruel Governor who takes away his only friend purely out of spite. The consequences are appalling.

Title: Ascendancies: The Best of Bruce Sterling Author: Bruce Sterling Narrator: Brian Holden, Pavi Proczko, Fajer Al-Kaisi, Mikael Naramore, Brian Nishii Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 26 hours 39 minutes Release date: December 29, 2020 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Two dozen tales of future shock and twisted history from an undisputed king of cyberpunk science fiction, including Nebula Award finalists “Sunken Garden” and “Dori Bangs.” Time magazine describes Bruce Sterling as “one of America’s best-known science fiction writers and perhaps the sharpest observer of our media-choked culture working today in any genre.” Sterling’s abilities are on full display in Ascendancies, a collection of speculative fiction from a world-class world-building futurist, alternate historian, and mad prophet operating at the peak of his extraordinary powers. Here are twenty-four stories that span the illustrious career of the author who, along with William Gibson and Neal Stephenson, injected the word cyberpunk into the science fiction lexicon. These tales not only traverse galaxies and employ mind-boggling technologies, they also cut back across the centuries into a richly imagined past with style and a sharp satiric edge. Sterling’s unparalleled imagination and courageous originality carry the reader into the future universe of the warring Shapers and Mechanists, rival sects of exiled humanity with radically opposed views of human augmentation. Several stories feature the questionable adventures of the footloose con man Leggy Starlitz in a somewhat-skewed and still-dangerous post–Cold War world. Sterling explores the cyberpunk trope of technology gone wild and the resultant decline of civilization with appropriate gravity, while presenting parables of strangers stuck in very strange lands in a more whimsical vein. Whether chronicling an alien’s encounter with Crusaders in disputed Palestine, depicting the discovery of the key to immortality in a nineteenth-century Times Square magic shop, or portraying bicycles and bad guys in a near-future Tennessee, Sterling’s stories are smart, surprising, genre bending, bold, and outstanding, one and all.

Title: Ascendancies: The Best of Bruce Sterling Author: Bruce Sterling Narrator: Brian Holden, Pavi Proczko, Fajer Al-Kaisi, Mikael Naramore, Brian Nishii Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 26 hours 39 minutes Release date: December 29, 2020 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Two dozen tales of future shock and twisted history from an undisputed king of cyberpunk science fiction, including Nebula Award finalists “Sunken Garden” and “Dori Bangs.” Time magazine describes Bruce Sterling as “one of America’s best-known science fiction writers and perhaps the sharpest observer of our media-choked culture working today in any genre.” Sterling’s abilities are on full display in Ascendancies, a collection of speculative fiction from a world-class world-building futurist, alternate historian, and mad prophet operating at the peak of his extraordinary powers. Here are twenty-four stories that span the illustrious career of the author who, along with William Gibson and Neal Stephenson, injected the word cyberpunk into the science fiction lexicon. These tales not only traverse galaxies and employ mind-boggling technologies, they also cut back across the centuries into a richly imagined past with style and a sharp satiric edge. Sterling’s unparalleled imagination and courageous originality carry the reader into the future universe of the warring Shapers and Mechanists, rival sects of exiled humanity with radically opposed views of human augmentation. Several stories feature the questionable adventures of the footloose con man Leggy Starlitz in a somewhat-skewed and still-dangerous post–Cold War world. Sterling explores the cyberpunk trope of technology gone wild and the resultant decline of civilization with appropriate gravity, while presenting parables of strangers stuck in very strange lands in a more whimsical vein.

Title: Transmutation: Stories Author: Alex Difrancesco Narrator: Kirsten Potter Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 18 minutes Release date: February 22, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Transgressive, transformative short stories that explore the margins of trans lives. Building on the success of All City, here is a wry, and at the same time dark and risk-taking, story collection from author (and baker) Alex DiFrancesco that pushes the boundaries of transgender awareness and filial bonds. Here is the hate between sixteen-year-old Junie, who is transitioning, and their mom's boyfriend Chad when the family moves into Chad's house on Lake Erie. And here is the love being tested between Sawyer and his dad, who named his boat after his child and resists changing it from Sara to Sawyer now. There is DiFrancesco's willingness to enter lands that are violent and comfortless in some of these stories, testing the limits of what it means to be human, sometimes returning stronger and wiser and sometimes not returning at all as their characters surge forward into unknown spaces. Contains mature themes.

Title: Shadows of Love, Shadows of Loneliness: Volume Two: Prints, Paintings, Drawings, Sketchbooks 1985-2020 Series: #2 of Shadows of Love, Shadows of Loneliness Author: William T. Vollmann Narrator: Paul Heitsch Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 16 minutes Release date: December 6, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: In this landmark collection, William T. Vollmann offers a kaleidoscopic retrospective of the visual artwork he has produced over four decades, with new commentary from Vollmann on his process, inspiration, and the many intersections with his writing. The celebrated author of over twenty-five books (among them the National Book Award–winning novel Europe Central; the seven-volume Rising Up and Rising Down, based on Vollmann's career as a war correspondent; and the two-volume climate change investigation Carbon Ideologies), Vollmann's equally ambitious and prolific career as a photographer, printmaker, and painter reflects the artist's deep interest in people existing on the margins, a profound empathy for his subjects, and the humility and generosity to meet them on their terms. In Shadows of Love, Shadows of Loneliness, a series of essays commissioned especially for this book lays out Vollmann's views on what photographs can and should say, how he chooses what to represent (beauty, suffering, compassion, love, desire, ideology), thoughts on photographic consensuality, and any number of technical descriptions. Particularly useful for Vollmann fans and scholars are the cross-references between these artistic and photographic projects and his books. William T.

Wodehouse Narrator: John Rayburn Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 44 minutes Release date: August 17, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Our Introduction is actually several comments by author P. G. Wodehouse. He wrote: This book marks an epoch in my literary career. It is written in blood. It is the outpouring of a soul as deeply seared by Fate’s unkindness as the fairway on the dog-leg hole of the second nine was ever seared by my iron. It is the work of a very nearly desperate man, an eighteen-handicap man who has got to look extremely slippy if he doesn’t want to find himself in the twenties again. As a writer of light fiction, I have always till now been handicapped by the fact that my disposition was cheerful, my heart intact, and my life unsoured. Handicapped, I say, because the public likes to feel that a writer of farcical stories is piquantly miserable in his private life, and that, if he turns out anything amusing, he does it simply in order to obtain relief from the almost insupportable weight of an existence which he has long since realized to be a wash-out. Well, today I am just like that. Two years ago, I admit, I was a shallow farceur. My work lacked depth. I wrote so flippantly simply because I was having a thoroughly good time. Then I took up golf, and now I can smile through the tears and laugh, like Figaro, that I may not weep, and generally hold my head up and feel that I am entitled to respect. If you find anything in this volume that amuses you, kindly bear in mind that it was probably written on my return home after losing three balls in the gorse or breaking the head off a favorite driver. Thank you for your sympathy. It means more to me than I can say. Do you think that if I tried the square stance for a bit … But, after all, this cannot interest you. Leave me to my misery as you listen. It won’t be surprising if you notice a few changes in the grand old game. P. G.

Title: Hunger: A Novella and Stories Author: Lan Samantha Chang Narrator: Eunice Wong Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 24 minutes Release date: January 18, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Not since Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan has a fiction writer explored with such powerful intensity the experience of being Asian American. The characters who inhabit this extraordinary fictional debut are caught between the burden of their past history and the fragility of their unchartered future. Hunger illuminates how first-generation immigrants from China, culturally and emotionally uprooted from their homeland, mistrust connection even as they hunger for attachment—and how the past affects and shapes their children. In luminous prose, these stories of love and loss explore the profound and painful ties between husband and wife, parent and child, sister and sister. The stunning title novella is told by a woman whose love for an exiled musician compels her into a tragic marriage in which her husband's unfulfilled desires nearly destroy their children. In other stories, a ghost seduces a young girl into a flooded river; a mother commands a daughter to avenge her father's death. Lan Samantha Chang weaves the forces of war and magic, food and desire, ghosts and family, into haunting tales. Again and again, Chang asks the question: is love not a kind of burden, stifling and terrifying in the choices and responsibilities it forces on us? And yet we yearn for it, define ourselves by our experience of it, cannot live without it.

Title: [Spanish] - Días de ira Author: Jorge Volpi Narrator: Humberto Solórzano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 20 minutes Release date: November 25, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Este volumen reúne tres narraciones de media distancia, precedidas del ensayo 'Elogio de la media distancia', donde Volpi realiza una cartografía de este género único que combina la 'paciencia de novelista con la agilidad del cuentacuentos'. Existe un territorio difícil entre el cuento y la novela al que ni siquiera se le puede dar nombre. Jorge Volpi demuestra con estas tres historias que es uno de los maestros en ese género impreciso del relato de largo aliento. Entre la novela y el cuento existe un territorio difícil de nombrar, difuso, híbrido. Jorge Volpi lo ha denominado 'media distancia', género que, en palabras del autor, excede los límites del cuento al tiempo que mantiene una drástica concentración del material narrativo frente a la ausencia de límites de la novela. Este volumen reúne tres narraciones de media distancia: 'A pesar del oscuro silencio', 'Días de ira' y 'El juego del apocalipsis', precedidas del ensayo 'Elogio de la media distancia', donde Volpi realiza una cartografía de este género único que combina la 'paciencia de novelista con la agilidad del cuentacuentos'.

Title: [Spanish] - Diecinueve garras y un pájaro oscuro Author: Agustina Bazterrica Narrator: Karin Zavala Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 27 minutes Release date: November 20, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Diecinueve garras y un pájaro oscuro es la reedición revisada y ampliada del volumen de cuentos publicado en 2016 con el título Antes del encuentro feroz. «Tengo un conejo entre las piernas. Es negro. Yo le digo Roberto, pero se podría llamar Ignacio o incluso Carla, pero le digo Roberto porque tiene forma de Roberto. Es lindo porque es peludo y duerme mucho. Le conté a mi amiga Isabel. Le dije: 'Isa, hace poco me creció un conejo entre las piernas. ¿Vos también tenés uno?'.» Con la publicación de Cadáver exquisito (Premio Clarín Novela 2017), Agustina Bazterrica logró dos cosas al mismo tiempo: consagrarse como una de las escritoras argentinas más leídas y respetadas en todo el mundo, y transformar el libro en un clásico instantáneo. Esa distopía acerca de un mundo casi inhumano, que no cesa de cuestionar nuestro modo de vida actual y que dispara toda clase de preguntas acerca de lo contemporáneo, tiene historia. La autora lleva muchos años escribiendo relatos y cuentos breves, que hoy Alfaguara reedita en este volumen. Diecinueve cuentos que nos llevan al corazón de nuestros miedos, de las fantasías más delirantes y oscuras y también del humor más negro. Textos que cuestionan el amor, la amistad, las relaciones familiares y los deseos inconfesables. Una lectura absorbente que confirma un estilo y una profundidad únicos en el panorama de la literatura en castellano. Sobre Cadáver exquisito la crítica ha dicho... «Una sólida y escalofriante novela futurista con un inesperado final de cuento. Una alegoría sobre la sociedad caníbal en la que vivimos; un trama sorprendente y bien dosificada, escrita con una prosa afilada como un cuchillo.» Jorge Fernández Díaz «Con un lenguaje directo y despojado, Cadáver exquisito incursiona en los mecanismos siniestros de una sociedad distópica y caníbal. Las imágenes, tanto repulsivas como fascinantes, se suceden una tras otra y recuerdan por momentos a los cuadros violentos de Francis Bacon y de Carlos Alonso. La novela rodea al lector con una sensación de amenaza al volver visibles algunas prácticas oscuras y normalizadas de la vida cotidiana actual.» Pedro Mairal «Novela mayor, cuya acción transcurre en el interior de una atmófera densa e hipnótica en la que el lector queda atrapado desde las primeras líneas como si fuera uno de sus personajes.» Juan José Millás «Bazterrica administra dosis de suspenso a la historia de una rebeldía individual que crece desde el asco, el odio y lo prohibido. El personaje de Tejo, cuyo hijo acaba de morir y cuyo padre no termina de morir, se recorta con nitidez en una trama perturbadora.» Daniel Gigena «Cadáver exquisito nos lleva al corazón del horror sin alejarse nunca de la construcción minuciosa de una realidad posible y de la indagación valiente de esa díada literaria fundamental: un personaje y una historia.» Ariel Dilon Agustina Bazterrica Sat, 20 Nov 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/557141 thebookvoice.com 3:27:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/557141]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Sobre Cadáver exquisito la crítica ha dicho... «Una sólida y escalofriante novela futurista con un inesperado final de cuento. Una alegoría sobre la sociedad caníbal en la que vivimos; un trama sorprendente y bien dosificada, escrita con una prosa afilada como un cuchillo.» Jorge Fernández Díaz «Con un lenguaje directo y despojado, Cadáver exquisito incursiona en los mecanismos siniestros de una sociedad distópica y caníbal. Las imágenes, tanto repulsivas como fascinantes, se suceden una tras otra y recuerdan por momentos a los cuadros violentos de Francis Bacon y de Carlos Alonso. La novela rodea al lector con una sensación de amenaza al volver visibles algunas prácticas oscuras y normalizadas de la vida cotidiana actual.» Pedro Mairal «Novela mayor, cuya acción transcurre en el interior de una atmófera densa e hipnótica en la que el lector queda atrapado desde las primeras líneas como si fuera uno de sus personajes.» Juan José Millás «Bazterrica administra dosis de suspenso a la historia de una rebeldía individual que crece desde el asco, el odio y lo prohibido. El personaje de Tejo, cuyo hijo acaba de morir y cuyo padre no termina de morir, se recorta con nitidez en una trama perturbadora.» Daniel Gigena «Cadáver exquisito nos lleva al corazón del horror sin alejarse nunca de la construcción minuciosa de una realidad posible y de la indagación valiente de esa díada literaria fundamental: un personaje y una historia.» Ariel Dilon Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/557141]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - Diecinueve garras y un pájaro oscuro Author: Agustina Bazterrica Narrator: Karin Zavala Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 27 minutes Release date: November 20, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Diecinueve garras y un pájaro oscuro es la reedición revisada y ampliada del volumen de cuentos publicado en 2016 con el título Antes del encuentro feroz. «Tengo un conejo entre las piernas. Es negro. Yo le digo Roberto, pero se podría llamar Ignacio o incluso Carla, pero le digo Roberto porque tiene forma de Roberto. Es lindo porque es peludo y duerme mucho. Le conté a mi amiga Isabel. Le dije: 'Isa, hace poco me creció un conejo entre las piernas. ¿Vos también tenés uno?'.» Con la publicación de Cadáver exquisito (Premio Clarín Novela 2017), Agustina Bazterrica logró dos cosas al mismo tiempo: consagrarse como una de las escritoras argentinas más leídas y respetadas en todo el mundo, y transformar el libro en un clásico instantáneo. Esa distopía acerca de un mundo casi inhumano, que no cesa de cuestionar nuestro modo de vida actual y que dispara toda clase de preguntas acerca de lo contemporáneo, tiene historia. La autora lleva muchos años escribiendo relatos y cuentos breves, que hoy Alfaguara reedita en este volumen. Diecinueve cuentos que nos llevan al corazón de nuestros miedos, de las fantasías más delirantes y oscuras y también del humor más negro. Textos que cuestionan el amor, la amistad, las relaciones familiares y los deseos inconfesables. Una lectura absorbente que confirma un estilo y una profundidad únicos en el panorama de la literatura en castellano.

Title: Three Viewings Author: Jeffrey Hatcher Narrator: Michelle Myers Berg, Steve Hendrickson, Lauren Ezzo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 28 minutes Release date: August 10, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: There’s a story behind every farewell. In Three Viewings, award-winning playwright Jeffrey Hatcher explores love, money, and loss in a trio of mordantly witty narratives. In a small-town funeral parlor, three stories portray the extent to which we all hold on to memories, money, life, and love. “Tell-Tale” is Emil, a mild-mannered undertaker burning with unspoken passion for a local realtor who frequents his funerals. Emil plots to confess his true feelings before time (and bodies) run out. “The Thief of Tears” is Mac, an LA drifter who makes her living stealing jewelry from corpses. When her wealthy grandmother dies, Mac returns to her hometown to pry loose her inheritance, a diamond ring the grandmother promised her when she was a child. “Thirteen Things About Ed Carpolotti” is Virginia, the widow of a wheeler-dealer contractor who discovers just how her husband Ed has been doing business. The resolution, reminiscent of O. Henry, is inspired and deeply moving.

Title: [Spanish] - Algo alrededor de tu cuello Author: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Narrator: Indhira Serrano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 57 minutes Release date: November 25, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, autora ganadora del prestigioso premio Orange con su novela Medio sol amarillo, vuelve al territorio de la ficción con este volumen de cuentos, un libro que revela una voz madura crecida en la realidad de un país como Nigeria. Conmovedores y profundos, estos relatos cuentan historias humanamente cercanas y geográficamente remotas: historias de mujeres que sufren lejos de su país de origen, historias de emigrantes que se encuentran a sí mismos en América, la tierra prometida. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, autora nigeriana, sabe hablar de África alejándose de los titulares manidos sobre ese continente, pero sin dejar de lado la historia de su país. Es una escritora interesada en cómo los asuntos públicos afectan a los individuos, interesada en analizar desde la ficción el choque entre la modernidad y la tradición, las expectativas familiares y los sueños de las nuevas generaciones. Reseñas: «Escuchar los relatos de Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie es un verdadero placer; la autora pertenece al reducido grupo de jóvenes escritores cuyo talento y sabiduría les separa de su propia generación debido a su gran madurez narrativa.» Yiyun Li «Algo alrededor de tu cuello, nominada al nominada al premio de relato Frank O'Connor International y al John Llewellyn Rhys, es un libro memorable.» The New York Times «Algo alrededor de tu cuello es una lectura perfecta para los tiempos que corren.» Publishers Weekly Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Thu, 25 Nov 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/556463 thebookvoice.com 6:57:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/556463]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Mark Twain: A BBC Radio Drama Collection: The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, The Million Pound Bank Note & More Author: Mark Twain Narrator: Inika Leigh Wright, Jon Glover, Tom Goodman-Hill, Trevor White, Jason Isaacs, Ed Bishop, Full Cast, Kelsey Grammer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 58 minutes Release date: May 12, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: BBC radio productions of Mark Twain's very best novels and short stories - plus bonus material Mark Twain (real name Samuel Langhorne Clemens), was one of the foremost writers and humorists to come out of the United States. Hailed by William Faulkner as 'the father of American literature', he is renowned worldwide for his classic novels The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. This wide-ranging collection comprises dramatisations and readings of a host of his much-loved stories, from well-known works to less familiar gems. The adaptations include Tony Award-winning Bryony Lavery's rhythmic reworking of The Million Pound Bank Note; The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, dramatised by award-winning playwright Marcy Kahan; and The Diary of Adam and Eve, Twain's affectionate satire about the battle of the sexes. They are performed by full casts including Trevor White, Mark Caven, Christopher Jacot, Inika Leigh Wright and Tom Goodman-Hill. Among the readings are an abridged version of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, in which Ed Bishop brings Tom's escapades to colourful life; the little-known yarn The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County (read by Jon Glover) telling the tall tale of an inveterate gambler and a talented amphibian; and The Prince and the Pauper (read by Jason Isaacs), an abridgement of Twain's historical fantasy about two identical boys born on the same day - one rich, the other poor. And in Mark Twain Stories, Frasier star Kelsey Grammer reads five of the great author's finest short stories. Also included is Kaleidoscope Feature: The Further Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, charting the troubled 100-year history of Twain's controversial novel, which has gone from being banned to being beloved - and back again. NB: Contains language that listeners may find offensive Cast and credits Written by Mark Twain.

Title: Tales from the Creepery: 13 Strange and Disturbing Dramas Author: Richard Curtis Narrator: Peter Dichter Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 4 minutes Release date: August 3, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A baker’s dozen audio dramas are conjured out of the imagination of author Richard Curtis. Everyday places and situations are the backdrops for tense and unpredictable confrontations. A chance encounter between neighbors in their building’s trash room; a routine visit to a yoga class; a friendly chat in the cardiac recovery ward of a hospital—thirteen commonplace moments escalate into tension, violence—and even death. Patterned after such classic suspense radio programs as Inner Sanctum and The Shadow, Tales from the Creepery promises to wrack your nerves to the breaking point. For bonus content watch the “Postmortem” videos for each episode: https://www.thecreepery.com/bonus-material “You Have a Guest”It isn’t a sin to fantasize about your wife’s sister … or is it? “Get Well Soon”A hospital cardiac ward is the last place you would expect to hear a political quarrel. For Stanley Finster and Roy Janssen, it may well be the last place they hear anything at all. “Affair of the Heart”Roger Barskin left his wife in a doctor’s care. Perhaps the doctor cared a little too much. “Table Reading”Clifford Dimsdorp says he’s been ripped off. If he can’t get his money back, he’ll take his refund in blood. “As I Lay Peeing”Was it a simple medical procedure? Or was it Robert Tandry’s descent into the jaws of Hell? “Rogue Restroom”Boy meets girl in the unlikeliest place—a unisex bathroom, where nothing functions the way it’s supposed to. “Driven”A drive to the country club in a luxurious limo takes a sharp turn into the terrifying unknown. “Have a Nice Transaction”When Stuart encounters a vagrant at the bank, he hears a hard luck story. Whose hard luck, he is about to find out. “Trash Talk”A chance encounter of two neighbors disposing of their garbage produces the sickening odor of danger. “Is it Hot in Here or Is it Just Me?”Just how hot is Hot Yoga? Marty’s love-starved wife Laura is about to find out. “The Client from Hell”The aliens from another world traveled the universe looking in vain for an intelligent race. At last they came to the planet Earth, but alas … they found none there, either. “The Man in the Shuffle”Ralph Miller will do anything to get rid of the voices in his head—anything. Anything! “Godhead”Godhead is the title of a favorite painting that Madeline, the artist, sold in a moment of weakness. Now she wants to meet the man who bought it, to discover if he is worthy of the masterpiece. Is he?

Title: [Spanish] - Objeto de amor Author: Edna O'Brien Narrator: Sol De La Barreda Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 23 minutes Release date: November 18, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Estos extraordinarios relatos de Edna O'Brien, publicados por primera vez en castellano en una edición a cargo de Marta Orriols, son una muestra brillante de la capacidad de su autora para manejar tramas y para manipular cada palabra con el detalle de una artesana y la delicadeza de una amante. Uno de los 40 libros imprescindibles escritos por mujeres según Elena Ferrante «El amor es como la naturaleza, pero al revés: primero vienen los frutos, luego las flores; al cabo de un tiempo parece marchitarse y finalmente cala hondo, tan hondo que nadie lo ve, y a menudo morimos con ese amor secreto escondido dentro de nosotros.» Edna O'Brien John Banville habla de ella como la maestra de la fragilidad, Philip Roth nos recuerda su precisión casi cruel a la hora de diseccionar sentimientos. Y los dos aciertan. Las mujeres retratadas en estos cuentos tienen el descaro de pedirle al amor mucho más de lo que sería razonable; sin embargo saben recoger con soltura lo que queda de los platos rotos en el suelo de una cocina, y siguen adelante con toda la energía que Edna O´Brien ha puesto en sus palabras y sus gestos. Pocas veces las vemos resignarse a un matrimonio largo, donde los días se parecen unos a otros, a menudo las vemos huyendo de casas, colegios y conventos, pero en su desesperación por una vida más libre sacuden al lector y le interpelan. Es así como la gran autora irlandesa ha creado un mundo donde todo es conocido pero nada se repite, porque bastan un verbo o un adjetivo para que el mundo sea otro. Críticas: «Edna O'Brien escribe las historias más bellas. Ningún escritor o escritora puede compararse a ella, en ningún lugar.» Alice Munro «Edna O'Brien es la escritora de lengua inglesa con más talento de nuestros días.» Philip Roth «Las novelas de Edna O'Brien son absolutamente memorables porque su genialidad procede del dolor mismo de la memoria.» John Berger «Edna vive, escribe, piensa, provoca, se atreve, se emociona y crece más que cualquiera que conozca -más que cualquier otro escritor, eso seguro.» Richard Ford «Admiro la inquietud de Edna O'Brien, su valentía y su gran ambición, pero, por encima de todo, me encanta el tono íntimo de sus novelas e historias, la sensación de corrientes y susurros, su interés por los matices. Utiliza el lenguaje sonoramente, la complejidad de su dicción coincide con lo que busca explorar en el carácter, en la percepción y en el acto mismo de experimentar el mundo.» Colm Tóibín «Un tesoro de potencia, inteligencia e ironía.» The New York Times Book Review «Está tan bien escrito que no te decepcionará, busques lo que busques.» Literary Review «Edna O'Brien es, simplemente, una de las mejores escritoras de nuestro tiempo.» John Banville «La literatura de Edna O'Brien está atravesada por una forma piadosa de rencor. [...] O'Brien cierra heridas, pero no hiere.» Ricardo Martínez Llorca, Revista de Letras «Más relatos sobre la mujer. Dolorosos. Con Irlanda como telón de fondo y el catolicismo intolerante de una época ya pasada. Duelen.» El Diario Vasco Sobre la autora: «La mayoría de los escritores nonagenarios, o bien han escrito ya su última novela, o están asentados en una forma y un tono que resultan reconocibles. No es el caso de Edna O'Brien.» Alec Russell, Financial Times «Edna O'Brien mueve montañas tanto líricas como políticas a través de su escritura.» Jurado del premio David Cohen Edna O'Brien Thu, 18 Nov 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/555833 thebookvoice.com 13:23:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/555833]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Gimpel, el tonto Author: Isaac Bashevis Singer Narrator: Eduardo España Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 4 minutes Release date: November 4, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: El primer libro de relatos de Isaac Bashevis Singer, Premio Nobel de Literatura. La primera colección de relatos de Isaac Bashevis Singer, Gimpel, el tonto, es un hito en la literatura universal que ganó el aplauso unánime de la crítica desde su publicación en 1957. La historia que da título a este volumen nos acerca a las proezas de Gimpel, un ingenuo panadero que es sistemáticamente engañado por su comunidad pero se niega a tomar represalias contra sus victimarios. Los protagonistas que desfilan por estas páginas dan vida al prodigioso universo creado por la prosa inigualable de su autor. La crítica ha dicho... «Cuando leí por vez primera Gimpel, el tonto tuve la certeza de estar frente a un relato profundamente ingenioso y hermoso, que me permitía adentrarme en todas las capas de la historia como lo haría un arqueólogo en el campo. Es la integridad de la imaginación humana lo que Singer transmite con tantísima belleza» Alfred Kazin Isaac Bashevis Singer Thu, 04 Nov 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/555075 thebookvoice.com 8:4:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/555075]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Hombres de verdad Author: Alberto Marcos Narrator: Marcos López Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 4 minutes Release date: September 2, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Un hombre en el ocaso de su vida tiene una última cita con la persona de sus sueños, un treintañero debe lidiar con problemas de impotencia en plena cima sexual, un genial cineasta es incapaz de rodar de nuevo tras realizar su obra culmen, una pareja gay viaja con sus madres al santuario de Fátima para pedir a la Virgen por el éxito de su cercana boda… Los protagonistas de 'Hombres de verdad' enfrentan las contradicciones que supone ser varón hoy en día, atrapados entre el rol tradicional de la masculinidad dura, insensible y dominante, y la lucha por alcanzar el territorio de la emoción, los afectos y la fragilidad. Para ello deberán cuestionarse su papel en el amor, el deseo, la religión, los miedos o la creación artística, pero ¿qué estarán dispuestos a sacrificar para convertirse en 'hombres de verdad'? Alberto Marcos se interna en las masculinidades del siglo XXI marcadas por el nuevo escenario de igualdad que el feminismo está construyendo; nueve cuentos que ahondan en las inseguridades tradicionalmente tapadas y heredadas durante generaciones. Una nueva e imprescindible mirada que urge leer y sobre la que urge pensar. Una obra urgente para los hombres de verdad. Para lectores y lectoras de verdad. 'El sello de Un hombre de verdad, que disecciona las relaciones sentimentales en la era de las apps, es el humor amargo y la inteligencia literaria. El amor en el siglo XXI explicado a gais y a heteros, a jóvenes y a maduros. Alberto Marcos es uno de los cuentistas más rotundos y serios de la literatura española actual.' Luisgé Martín 'En los cuentos de Alberto Marcos hay ternura, humor, erotismo, a veces crueldad. Están llenos de encanto y son irresistibles.' Óscar Esquivias 'Tras leer 'Hombres de verdad' de Alberto Marcos celebré que Alberto y yo no nos conozcamos demasiado. Así me ahorré el temor a aparecer entre esas páginas que cuentan tan bien lo que creemos ocultar (a oscuras, a solas o con una foto sin cara en alguna app de ligue). También lamenté no ser amigo de Alberto. Para pedirle que –por favor– nunca me mire ni me escriba así; tan certero que me dé miedo.'

Así me ahorré el temor a aparecer entre esas páginas que cuentan tan bien lo que creemos ocultar (a oscuras, a solas o con una foto sin cara en alguna app de ligue). También lamenté no ser amigo de Alberto. Para pedirle que –por favor– nunca me mire ni me escriba así; tan certero que me dé miedo.'

Title: [Spanish] - Hombres de verdad Author: Alberto Marcos Narrator: Marcos López Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 4 minutes Release date: September 2, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Un hombre en el ocaso de su vida tiene una última cita con la persona de sus sueños, un treintañero debe lidiar con problemas de impotencia en plena cima sexual, un genial cineasta es incapaz de rodar de nuevo tras realizar su obra culmen, una pareja gay viaja con sus madres al santuario de Fátima para pedir a la Virgen por el éxito de su cercana boda… Los protagonistas de 'Hombres de verdad' enfrentan las contradicciones que supone ser varón hoy en día, atrapados entre el rol tradicional de la masculinidad dura, insensible y dominante, y la lucha por alcanzar el territorio de la emoción, los afectos y la fragilidad. Para ello deberán cuestionarse su papel en el amor, el deseo, la religión, los miedos o la creación artística, pero ¿qué estarán dispuestos a sacrificar para convertirse en 'hombres de verdad'? Alberto Marcos se interna en las masculinidades del siglo XXI marcadas por el nuevo escenario de igualdad que el feminismo está construyendo; nueve cuentos que ahondan en las inseguridades tradicionalmente tapadas y heredadas durante generaciones. Una nueva e imprescindible mirada que urge leer y sobre la que urge pensar. Una obra urgente para los hombres de verdad. Para lectores y lectoras de verdad. 'El sello de Un hombre de verdad, que disecciona las relaciones sentimentales en la era de las apps, es el humor amargo y la inteligencia literaria. El amor en el siglo XXI explicado a gais y a heteros, a jóvenes y a maduros. Alberto Marcos es uno de los cuentistas más rotundos y serios de la literatura española actual.'

Title: [Spanish] - Cándido, o el Optimismo: El ingenuo; Zadig, o el Destino; Micromegas; Poemas sobre el desastre de Lisboa Author: Voltaire Narrator: Pepe Ocio Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 4 minutes Release date: November 18, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: La pluma brillante e imaginativa de Voltaire nos lleva de la mano por sus sugerentes universos ficticios, por todos sus mundos posibles. Introducción y traducción de Mauro Armiño, crítico literario que ha recibido numerosos premios por su labor traductora. Aunque Voltaire empezó a escribir cuentos en su etapa de «cortesano», cuando debía amenizar, como gentilhombre de la cámara del rey, los ocios de la corte, en los cuatro títulos que componen el presente volumen -Cándido, Micromegas, Zadig y El Ingenuo- ya están presentes los propósitos de toda su escritura: divulgar las nuevas ideas, combatir la ineptitud y la mentira religiosas, y luchar por la tolerancia. Todo ello envuelto en ficciones que pueden llevar al lector desde Oriente hasta los espacios interplanetarios, en un intento de desenmascarar la realidad absolutista de la sociedad francesa; esa aportación de Voltaire a las nuevas ideas ayudará a cambiar la mentalidad del siglo XVIII y siguientes. Este volumen reúne lo mejor de la producción narrativa de Voltaire e incluye, como apéndice, el Poema sobre el desastre de Lisboa, clave en la redacción de Cándido. Firma la edición Mauro Armiño, quien, además de preparar la introducción y una cronología, ha traducido y anotado con detalle los textos.

HENRY PRIZE NAMED ONE OF THE NEW YORKER'S BEST BOOKS OF 2022 'An endlessly inventive and moving collection from a thrilling and capacious young talent.' —Jess Walter, author of Beautiful Ruins. A luminous new collection of stories from a young writer who “has brought his culture’s rich history, mythology, and lyricism to American letters.” —Sandra Cisneros Pen/Hemingway finalist Jamil Jan Kochai ​breathes life into his contemporary Afghan characters, moving between modern-day Afghanistan and the Afghan diaspora in America. In these arresting stories verging on both comedy and tragedy, often starring young characters whose bravado is matched by their tenderness, Kochai once again captures “a singular, resonant voice, an American teenager raised by Old World Afghan storytellers.”* In “Playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain,' a young man's video game experience turns into a surreal exploration on his own father's memories of war and occupation. Set in Kabul, 'Return to Sender' follows two married doctors driven by guilt to leave the US and care for their fellow Afghans, even when their own son disappears. A college student in the US in 'Hungry Ricky Daddy' starves himself in protest of Israeli violence against Palestine. And in the title story, 'The Haunting of Hajji Hotak,' we learn the story of a man codenamed Hajji, from the perspective of a government surveillance worker, who becomes entrenched in the immigrant family's life. The Haunting of Hajji Hotak and Other Stories is a moving exploration of characters grappling with the ghosts of war and displacement—and one that speaks to the immediate political landscape we reckon with today. *The New York Times Book Review Jamil Jan Kochai Tue, 19 Jul 2022 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/553790 thebookvoice.com 5:54:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/553790]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Suicidios ejemplares Author: Enrique Vila-Matas Narrator: Carlos Di Blasi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 30 minutes Release date: February 3, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: En el prólogo de esta colección de suicidios imaginarios se nos habla de unos grafittis misteriosos que hace unos años aparecieron en la ciudad nueva de Fez, en Marruecos: 'Se descubrió que los trazaba un vagabundo, un campesino emigrado que no se había integrado en la vida urbana y que para orientarse debía marcar itinerarios de su propio mapa secreto, superponiéndolos a la topografía de la ciudad moderna que le era extraña y hostil…' Todo parece indicar que en estos relatos, el narrador, al igual que el vagabundo de Fez, intenta orientarse en el laberinto del suicidio a base de marcar el itinerario de su propio mapa secreto y literario: 'Y eso me lleva a pensar en Pessoa ('Viajar, perder países') y a parafrasearlo: Viajar, perder suicidios; perderlos todos. Viajar hasta que se agoten las nobles opciones de muerte que existen.' Viajar y perder países, inventar personajes que evitan que nos arrojemos al vacío, adentrarse a tumba abierta en la realidad, perseguir con gran fatiga vidas ajenas, morir de esa pasión extrema que puede ser el amor, coleccionar tempestades, interiorizar a los muertos, perderse, resignarse a la grisura de la vida, practicar la saudade, convertirse en fantasma: éstas son algunas de las nobles suertes de muerte o despedidas irónicas de la vida que habitan las páginas de esta colección de sutiles suicidios y van trazando un inquietante itinerario moral a través del tema de la muerte por mano propia, sin sucumbir al suicidio pero también sin escapar de él.

Chesterton Narrator: John Rayburn Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 22 minutes Release date: July 20, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A fictional priest and amateur detective named Father Brown had a face once described “as round and dull as a Norfolk dumpling.” This made him appear somewhat clumsy and naïve, but that didn’t take into account his keen understanding of human nature and exceptional intuition. English writer G. K. Chesterton created the character, writing fifty-three short stories over the years and gaining widespread popularity, later on TV as well. All of the stories you’re about to hear were originally printed in the Saturday Evening Post magazine, with the first in 1910. Those tales are as follows: “The Blue Cross”“The Secret Garden”“The Queer Feet”“The Flying Stars”“The Invisible Man”“The Honour of Israel Gow”“The Wrong Shape”“The Sins of Prince Saradine”“The Hammer of God”“The Eye of Apollo”“The Sign of the Broken Sword”“The Three Tools of Death” G.

Title: Scattered Lights Author: Steve Wiegenstein Narrator: Steve Wiegenstein Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 7 minutes Release date: October 8, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: This collection of stories brings together a wide cast of characters, all connected to the Ozarks - natives and transplants, young and old, wicked and innocent, troubled and happy, God-haunted and just plain haunted. These stories range over human experience from madness to reconciliation and everything in between, told in precise, poetic language that leaves a permanent impression. Finalist for the 2021 PEN/Faulkner Award for Fiction. '[Wiegenstein] presents us with dozens of distinctive and real people doing their best, or not so best, but intermittently asking the same questions all of us do – why are we here, who loves us, what do we owe each other, what does it mean to be good? . . . The pared, beautiful prose of Scattered Lights comes to seem less a style than an ethic – not to intrude, but to observe; not to judge, but to comprehend. The project founded on a final faith, present in great writers of short fiction, from Chekov to Grace Paley, to another of this year’s finalists Deesha Philyaw, that art is where our higher selves can meet, free from the transient furies of the news. The sooner we begin paying attention to each other as people, Wiegenstein argues, the more people we suddenly begin to see, no matter where we're from.' - From the PEN/Faulkner Award commendation.

Behind anonymous screens, an army of cool and beautiful girls manage the dating service Ghost Lover, a forwarding system for text messages that promises to spare you the anguish of trying to stay composed while communicating with your crush.

In a California of the sixties and seventies, characters examine the contents of deceased relatives' freezers, tape-record high school locker-room chatter, or collect a community's gossip while cleaning the teeth of its inhabitants. Mr. Darcy is the captain of the football team, Mansfield Park materializes in a suburb of LA, bake sales replace ballroom dances, and station wagons, not horse-drawn carriages, are the preferred mode of transit.

Title: Bad Thoughts: Stories Author: Nada Alic Narrator: Nada Alic Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 20 minutes Release date: July 12, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: An exhilarating and delightfully deviant debut story collection that, with comedic precision and compulsive irreverence, explores the most surreal and inadmissible fantasies of contemporary women. “Nada Alic’s Bad Thoughts is lit up with the perception, wit, and cunning of Miranda July and Sally Rooney.” —T. Kira Madden, author of Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls Nada Alic's women—the perverts, nobodies, reality TV stars, poetic hopefuls, shameless party girls, and self-help addicts of Los Angeles and its environs—are all wrestling with a shared stark reality: the modern world. To cope, they live in their baddest thoughts: the lush, strange landscape of female make-believe. In “Earth to Lydia,” a support group meets to enjoy earthly pleasures after achieving 'too much enlightenment,' engaging in bizarre exercises that escalate to a point of violence and fear. The narrator of 'Ghost Baby'—the spirit of a proto-child assigned to a couple whose chemistry is waning—writhes in disembodied frustration as its parents fail to conceive it. In “Daddy's Girl,” the daughter of Eastern European immigrants tries to connect to her distant and difficult father through the invention of increasingly elaborate home maintenance repairs. And in “The Intruder,” a lonely woman’s break-in fantasy quickly builds to a full-blown obsession, until she finds an unwitting partner with whom to act it out. Though each of Alic’s characters thrive and ache in different circumstances, they all grapple with the most painful equations of modern life: love, trust, power, loneliness, desire, violation, and vengeance. And she conjures them all with a voice that is instantly arresting, unexpectedly hilarious, and absolutely unforgettable.   A VINTAGE ORIGINAL Nada Alic Tue, 12 Jul 2022 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/552817 thebookvoice.com 8:20:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/552817]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Last Train to Helsingør Author: Heidi Amsinck Narrator: Tim Mcinnerny Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 25 minutes Release date: October 19, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.8 of Total 5 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Copenhagen is a mysterious city where strange and sinister things often happen. Menacing and at times darkly humorous there are echoes of Roald Dahl and Daphne du Maurier in these stories, many of which have been specially commissioned for BBC Radio 4. From the commuter who bitterly regrets falling asleep on a late-night train in Last Train to Helsingør, to the mushroom hunter prepared to kill to guard her secret in The Chanterelles of Østvig. Here, the land of 'hygge' becomes one of twilight and shadows, as canny antique dealers and property sharks get their comeuppance at the hands of old ladies in Conning Mrs Vinterberg, and ghosts go off-script in The Wailing Girl. Deliciously dark and chilling, this is Nordic Noir at its finest. - Heidi Amsinck, a writer and journalist born in Copenhagen, spent many years covering Britain for the Danish press, including a spell as London Correspondent for the broadsheet daily Jyllands-Posten. She has written numerous short stories for radio, including the three-story sets Danish Noir, Copenhagen Confidential and Copenhagen Curios, all produced by Sweet Talk for BBC Radio 4.

A master of the short story, Saadat Hasan Manto opens a window onto Bombay's demimonde—its prostitutes, rickshaw drivers, artists, and strays as well probing the pain and bewilderment of the Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs ripped apart by the India-Pakistan Partition. Manto is best known for his dry-eyed examination of the violence, horrors, and reverberations from the Partition. From a stray dog caught in the crossfire at the fresh border of India and Pakistan, to friendly neighbors turned enemy soldiers pausing for tea together in a momentary cease fire—Manto shines incandescent light into hidden corners with an unflinching gaze, and a fierce humanism. With a foreword by Pulitzer Prize–winning poet Vijay Seshadri, these stories are essential reading for our current moment where divisiveness is erupting into violence in so many parts of the world. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/551929 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/551929]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Una casa para siempre Author: Enrique Vila-Matas Narrator: Carlos Di Blasi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 2 minutes Release date: December 15, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: En la noche lisboeta un famoso ventrílocuo, tras despedirse inesperadamente y para siempre de los escenarios, va al encuentro del barbero que le ha robado la mujer amada y, en una solitaria callejuela del puerto, le atraviesa el corazón con una afilada sombrilla de Java. Pero la confesión explícita del crimen no espere encontrarla el lector en 'Una casa para siempre', que es el libro de memorias de ese ventrílocuo, así como tampoco la transcripción fiel de su huida, una repugnante fuga que el narrador disfraza de culta, hermosa y literaria. No hay de qué alarmarse. Todos los libros de memorias escamotean algo o mucho. Además, 'Una casa para siempre' puede escucharse como una novela en la que, si bien se ocultan episodios cruciales, otros no menos importantes van configurando, a través de una trama desgarrada e incierta, la peculiar trayectoria vital del narrador. Estamos ante la historia del ventrílocuo que supera el grave problema que para su oficio representa el tener una sola y única voz, se disgrega entonces en tantas voces como relatos o pasajes de vida contienen sus memorias, y finalmente acaba reencontrando su propia voz en un país lejano. Nada menos que en la Arabia feliz, el país de las mil y una noches. Allí, convertido en un narrador oral que intenta en vano despedirse de la escritura, se sentirá atrapado ya para siempre en la casa de la ficción que es, al mismo tiempo, el escenario del crimen, es decir, el lugar de la palabra.

Title: The Angel of Rome: And Other Stories Author: Jess Walter Narrator: Edoardo Ballerini, Julia Whelan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 9 minutes Release date: June 28, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Beautiful Ruins and The Cold Millions comes a stunning collection about those moments when everything changes—for the better, for the worse, for the outrageous—as a diverse cast of characters bounces from Italy to Idaho, questioning their roles in life and finding inspiration in the unlikeliest places. We all live like we’re famous now, curating our social media presences, performing our identities, withholding those parts of ourselves we don’t want others to see. In this riveting collection of stories from acclaimed author Jess Walter, a teenage girl tries to live up to the image of her beautiful, missing mother. An elderly couple confronts the fiction writer eavesdropping on their conversation. A son must repeatedly come out to his senile father while looking for a place to care for the old man. A famous actor in recovery has a one-night stand with the world's most surprising film critic. And in the romantic title story, a shy twenty-one-year-old studying Latin in Rome during “the year of my reinvention” finds himself face-to-face with the Italian actress of his adolescent dreams. Funny, poignant, and redemptive, this collection of short fiction offers a dazzling range of voices, backdrops, and situations. With his signature wit and bighearted approach to the darkest parts of humanity, Walter tackles the modern condition with a timeless touch, once again “solidifying his place in the contemporary canon as one of our most gifted builders of fictional worlds” (Esquire).

Title: Self-Portrait with Ghost: Short Stories Author: Meng Jin Narrator: Cindy Kay Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 15 minutes Release date: July 5, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: “A knockout short story collection...Each one of these 10 dizzyingly immersive stories offers up a heady and visceral portrait of what ails us, from isolation and self-doubt, to unrequited love and regret over what might have been, to what it means to be (and to be considered) an American.'' -- San Francisco Chronicle Meng Jin’s critically acclaimed debut novel, Little Gods, was praised as “spectacular and emotionally polyphonic (Omar El-Akkad, BookPage), “powerful” (Washington Post), and “meticulously observed, daringly imagined” (Claire Messud). Now Jin turns her considerable talents to short fiction, in ten thematically linked stories. Written during the turbulent years of the Trump administration and the first year of the pandemic, these stories explore intimacy and isolation, coming-of-age and coming to terms with the repercussions of past mistakes, fraying relationships and surprising moments of connection. Moving between San Francisco and China, and from unsparing realism to genre-bending delight, Self-Portrait with Ghost considers what it means to live in an age of heightened self-consciousness, seemingly endless access to knowledge, and little actual power. Page-turning, thought-provoking, and wholly unique, Self-Portrait with Ghost further establishes Meng Jin as a writer who “reminds us that possible explanations in our universe are as varied as the beings who populate it” (Paris Review).

Equally provocative and profound, each story is masterfully woven with transgressive themes that burrow beneath the skin. - A poker game yields a strange prize that haunts one man, his game of chance now turned into a life-or-death coin flip. - A set of twins find they have mysterious new powers when an asteroid crashes in a field near their house and the decisions they make create an uneasy balance. - A fantasy world is filled with one man’s desire to feel whole again, finally finding love, only to have the shocking truth of his life exposed in an appalling twist. - A father and son work slave labor in a brave new world run by aliens and mount a rebellion that may end up freeing them all. - A clown takes off his make-up in a gloomy basement to reveal something more horrifying under the white, tacky skin. Powerful and haunting, Thomas’s transportive collection dares you to examine what lies in the darkest, most twisted corners of human existence and not be transformed by what you find. A foreword by Brian Evenson is included.

Title: Sadvertising Author: Ennis Cehic Narrator: Andrea Solonge, Stephen James King Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 43 minutes Release date: March 1, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A man grows tired of his open-plan office and builds a fort made of stationery. A woman's euphoria at finally achieving Desktop Zero is quickly replaced with despair. A group of copywriters dream of being poets, and a disillusioned sales executive overthinks his think piece. In the mind-bendingly upside-down world of Sadvertising iPhones have feelings, brands come to life, creative directors disappear into parallel universes and lowly freelancers become immortal. It's a world where gods, ghosts and muses stalk the corridors of bland and placeless offices, and the wondrous exists alongside the mundane. Short, punchy and direct, Ennis Cehic's satirical fables are box-fresh and shot through with pitch-black humour, existential dread and late capitalist yearning for meaning. They grapple with love and loneliness, art and commerce, dream and reality, and reflect the absurdity of the modern condition. Sadvertising is a surreal, subversive and utterly contemporary literary debut from an unforgettable new voice.

Title: A Blind Corner Author: Caitlin Macy Narrator: Vanessa Johansson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 24 minutes Release date: June 21, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: From the author of Mrs. and TheFundamentals of Play comes a brilliant and biting short story collection about pride, privilege, and our nagging need to belong. In an era of “hot takes” and easy generalizations, this collection reclaims the absurdities and paradoxes of life as it is actually lived from the American fantasy of “niceness”. In Macy’s world, human desires and fatal blind spots slam headlong into convenient, social-media-driven narratives that would sort us into neat boxes of insider or outsider; good or bad; with us or against us.   Time and again, whether at home or in the age-old role of Americans abroad, Macy’s women see their good intentions turn awry. A woman who tries to do a good deed for an underprivileged child sees it go horribly wrong. A wife, attempting to be a good host to a friend’s strange ex-boyfriend, finds herself in a compromised situation. And, in the title story, a newlywed fancies herself a Euro-sophisticate until an accident reminds her just how truly foreign she really is. In tales where shocking and sometimes brutal events disabuse characters of their most cherished beliefs, Macy forgoes easy moralization in favor of uncomfortable truths that reveal the complexity of what it means to be human.

Title: [Spanish] - Cuentos escogidos de Coloane Author: Francisco Coloane Narrator: Santiago Ramirez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 39 minutes Release date: October 25, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Los mejores cuentos de gran narrador del sur austral. El rescate de uno de los grandes clásicos chilenos. Coloane escribió toda su vida sobre la zona más austral del continente americano, sobre ese mundo abandonado, lejano y desolado, azotado por un clima feroz y en donde la lucha por la v ida se inicia cada día. Es nada menos que uno de los creadores de todo un imaginario austral que marca la literatura sudamericana. Este libro rescata sus mejores relatos. Cuentos en donde tanto su maestría para narrar como el despliegue de ese mundo en el que tanto indagó quedan ref lejados a la perfección. Un autor clásico y fundamental, rescatado en esta selección que realiza y prologa Diego Zúñiga. 'La narrativa de Coloane está descolgada del mapa, como sus personajes, comulgando con una naturaleza primitiva y feroz. Los relatos parecen estar contándose alrededor del fuego con el sonido de una voz tan primigenia como el ulular del viento o el canto de las ballenas jorobadas.' Rosabetty Muñoz 'Coloane ha pintado con destreza la vida y los paisajes del extremo sur chileno (…) sus cuentos magallánicos le valieron el mote del Jack London chileno.' Cesar Aira 'Sus cuentos nombran los más desolados espacios del continente americano, cifrándolos bajo una concepción cósmica (…) Dan cuenta de un mundo olvidado, de un sur chileno tan real que bordea los límites de lo imaginado.' Lina Meruane 'Al recuperar el mundo de los confines patagónicos -desconocido incluso para los chilenos- se convirtió en el conquistador literario de ese territorio austral donde enloquecen las brújulas. Describió a los hombres de a caballo o de a bordo que circulan por aquellos páramos y los transformó en un mito.' Claudia Donoso 'Coloane es un hombre que escribe la verdad de lo que se siente y de sus experiencias. Esta sinceridad de escritor no es muy frecuente, pese a las apariencias, y constituye el sello de autenticidad que garantiza el valor de toda su obra.' Armando Uribe 'Chile está por concluirse. La soledad es demasiado grande, el frío demasiado intenso, los témpanos son del tamaño de continentes, los lobos marinos, los pájaros, las ballenas son los únicos habitantes de estos parajes. Sin embargo, un navegante, solitario, silencioso y barbudo, recorre la región, y conoce los escasos hombres que la pueblan. Es Francisco Coloane.' José Donoso.

Supuso, de este modo, un corte al relato costumbrista o criollista. Este libro reúne, por primera vez, todos sus cuentos: los publicados en Hombres del sur, El delincuente y Travesía, sus cuentos dispersos publicados en revistas y diarios y tres cuentos inéditos. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/550303 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/550303]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Mysterious Affair at Styles & Five Little Pigs: Two Bestselling Agatha Christie Novels in One Great Audiobook Author: Agatha Christie Narrator: Hugh Fraser Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 37 minutes Release date: January 11, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.67 of Total 3 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Two Bestselling Agatha Christie Novels in One Great Audiobook The Mysterious Affair at Styles Hercule Poirot solves his first case in the Agatha Christie novel that started it all, now in a fully restored edition that features a “missing chapter” along with commentary from Christie expert John Curran. Who poisoned the wealthy Emily Inglethorp and how did the murderer penetrate and escape from her locked bedroom? Suspects abound in the quaint village of Styles St. Mary—from the heiress's fawning new husband to her two stepsons, her volatile housekeeper, and a pretty nurse who works in a hospital dispensary. With impeccable timing, and making his unforgettable debut, the brilliant Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is on the case. Five Little Pigs In Agatha Christie’s classic, Five Little Pigs, beloved detective Hercule Poirot races to solve a case from out of the past. Beautiful Caroline Crale was convicted of poisoning her husband, but just like the nursery rhyme, there were five other “little pigs” who could have done it: Philip Blake (the stockbroker), who went to market; Meredith Blake (the amateur herbalist), who stayed at home; Elsa Greer (the three-time divorcée), who had her roast beef; Cecilia Williams (the devoted governess), who had none; and Angela Warren (the disfigured sister), who cried all the way home. Sixteen years later, Caroline’s daughter is determined to prove her mother’s innocence, and Poirot just can’t get that nursery rhyme out of his mind.

Title: Off Season Author: Jennifer Weiner Narrator: Rachel Dratch Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 4 minutes Release date: October 19, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Summer and Mrs. Everything channels Shirley Jackson and Stephen King to bring us a chilling tale of an author willing to do anything to revitalize her career. Sarah Vernon has spent twenty years trying to make it as a novelist…and she’s never even come close. None of her novels has sold more than five thousand copies, and she’s never earned enough money to make fiction her full-time job. After her last disappointing publication, Sarah’s agent dumped her, and it seems like her dream is dead. Sarah vows that she’ll do anything for one last shot at the bestseller list. Enter Will Presser. Nicknamed The Viper, Will is a literary agent whose career-making reputation precedes him. A business dinner ends with a nightcap at Will’s apartment—and a night Sarah can’t remember. When she wakes up the next morning, Will says he’s got a plan to make her new book a hit. He sends Sarah off to Elder Island, a summer playground for the rich and famous that empties out between September and May, for her own personal writer’s retreat. He’s left word that Sarah needs complete privacy in order to write, and Sarah’s too bewildered and flattered by Will’s attention to do anything but pack her bags and board the ferry. Alone in an isolated mansion, Sarah’s writing has never come more easily. She spends hours each day lost in a trance, falling into the world of her story. She tries not to worry about the nightmares that plague her…or the mornings she wakes up with dirt on her feet and blood under her fingernails. ​ Everything Will Presser touches becomes a success, and, now, Will Presser has touched me, Sarah thinks. But Elder Island isn’t the pretty summer playground it seems to be, and Sarah’s going to learn that success comes at a cost, and that, whenever you sign a deal, it’s always wise to read the fine print.

Title: Loss of Memory is Only Temporary: Stories Author: Johanna Kaplan Narrator: Nicole Poole Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 15 minutes Release date: February 15, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A funny, fresh, and brilliantly insightful collection of stories from a beloved writer, with a new introduction by Francine Prose Johanna Kaplan’s beautifully written stories first burst on the literary scene in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Today they have retained all of their depth, surprise, and humor—their simultaneously scathing, hilarious, and compassionate insight into character and behavior. From Miriam, home from school with the measles, to Louise, the daughter of a family that fled Vienna for the Dominican Republic, to Naomi, a young psychiatrist, her heroines are fierce, tender, funny, and cuttingly smart. At once specific to a particular period, place, and milieu—mainly, Jewish New York in the decades after World War II—Kaplan’s stories resonate with universal significance. In this new collection, which includes both early and later stories, unforgettably vivid characters are captured in all of their forceful presence and singularity, their foolishness and their wisdom, their venality and their nobility, while, hovering in the background, the inexorable passage of time and the unending pull of memory render silent judgment. In its pitch-perfect command of dialogue matched with interwoven subtleties of insight and feeling and a masterful control of language, Loss of Memory Is Only Temporary is itself a timeless collection of the finest work by one of the most extraordinary talents of our age.

A hurdler and a gymnast spend a single night together in the Olympic village. Mistakes and mysteries weave an intangible web around an old man’s deathbed in Paris, connecting disparate destinies. On the slopes of an unfinished ski resort, a young woman searches for her vanished lover. A couple’s Romanian honeymoon goes ominously awry, and, in the mesmerizing title story, a former child actress breaks with her life in a Hollywood cult.   In these and other stories, knockout after knockout, Maggie Shipstead delivers another “extraordinary” (New York Times) work of fiction and seals her reputation as a writer of “breathtaking range and skill” (Kirkus Reviews). Rich in imagination and dazzling in its shapeshifting style, You Have a Friend in 10A excavates the complexities of love, sex, and life in ways unsparing and hilarious, sharp-eyed and tender.

Title: Animal Person: Stories Author: Alexander Macleod Narrator: Alexander Macleod, Ishan Davé, Frank Cox-O'connell, Victoria Carr, Justin Miller, Richard Clarkin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 34 minutes Release date: April 5, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Winner of the Dartmouth Book Award for Fiction. Named a Best Book of the Year by The New Yorker, CBC Books, and the Globe and Mail. From Giller Prize finalist Alexander MacLeod comes a magnificent collection about the needs, temptations, and tensions that exist just beneath the surface of our lives. Named a Canadian Fiction title to watch by the CBC, Quill & Quire, and 49th Shelf, and a 'must-read book' by Maclean's. Featuring stories published in The New Yorker, Granta, and the O. Henry Prize Stories. Startling, suspenseful, deeply humane yet alert to the undertow of our darker instincts, the eight stories in Animal Person illuminate what it means to exist in the perilous space between desire and action, and to have your faith in what you hold true buckle and give way.      A petty argument between two sisters is interrupted by an unexpected visitor. Adjoining motel rooms connect a family on the brink of a new life with a criminal whose legacy will haunt them for years to come. A connoisseur of other people’s secrets is undone by what he finds in a piece of lost luggage. In the wake of a tragic accident, a young man must contend with what is owed to the living and to the dead. And in the O. Henry Award-winning story “Lagomorph,” a man’s relationship with his family’s long-lived pet rabbit opens up to become a profound exploration of how a marriage fractures.      Muscular and tender, beautifully crafted, and alive with an elemental power, these stories explore the struggle for meaning and connection in an age when many of us feel cut off from so much, not least ourselves. This is a collection that beats with raw emotion and shimmers with the complexity of our shared human experience, and it confirms Alexander MacLeod’s reputation as a modern master of the short story.

Title: The Masque of the Red Death Author: Steven Archer, Edgar Allan Poe Narrator: Stefan Rudnicki Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 7 minutes Release date: June 22, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A cinematic audiobook with a haunting score and enhanced atmosphere Edgar Allan Poe wrote “The Masque of the Red Death” nearly 180 years ago, yet its narrative and characters continue to mystify and captivate. The short story is driven by Prince Prospero’s attempt to evade the “Red Death,” a fatal plague infecting his kingdom, by hiding in his abbey, where he indulges in pleasures and delights with other nobles. He soon finds out that no one can escape their end. Steven Archer has recast the characters of “The Masque” and illuminated the narrative in a novel and perhaps more visceral light, while remaining true to the raw darkness and decadence of the tale. His modern take on the classic story brings it into our new infected world. Perhaps it was prescience that drove him to create the illustrations in 2018, only to have them see the plague-filled light of day in 2020. Even now in our enlightened and modern world, “Darkness and Decay and the Red Death holds illimitable dominion over all.” With a foreword by John Langan (The Wide Carnivorous Sky), this is an immersive audio-visual feast that breathes new life into this classic memento mori tale of disease, decadence, and inevitable mortality. The audiobook features a conversation between Steven Archer and Stefan Rudnicki and includes an accompanying PDF of Steven Archer’s original illustrations.

As a 'Southern' writer much of her work integrates themes of class and gender struggles, many of them based on her own experiences and relationships. She wrote realistically of the changing contemporary South; very different from the then idealistic escapist fare after Reconstruction.As the women's suffrage movement developed at the turn of the century Glasgow was very active, but later felt it had come at the wrong time for her, accordingly her enthusiasm waned although her later books did have heroines who displayed their ambitions in the social and political struggle.In 1923 came her short story collection 'The Shadowy Third & Other Stories' which included 'The Difference', a classic tale of a marriage hitting a problem and the moral and realistic reaction to that.Further works followed and, in 1941, she published 'In This Our Life'. This bold and progressive book on African-Americans, followed the central characters and portrayed the blatant injustices they faced in society. It won the Pulitzer Prize the following year.Ellen Anderson Gholson Glasgow died in her sleep at home on 21st November 1945. She was 72.

His family life was difficult; his father was strict and over-bearing but his mother was a passionate story-teller, a subject Chekhov warmed to. As he later said; 'our talents we got from our father, but our soul from our mother'. At school Chekhov was distinctly average. At 16 his father mis-managed his finances and was declared bankrupt. His family fled to Moscow. Chekhov remained and eked out a living by various means, including writing and selling short sketches to newspapers, to finish his schooling. That completed and with a scholarship to Moscow University obtained he rejoined his family.He was able to help support them by selling satirical sketches and vignettes of Russian lifestyles and gradually obtained further commissions. In 1884, he qualified as a physician and, although it earned him little, he often treated the poor for free, he was fond of saying 'Medicine is my lawful wife, and literature is my mistress.'His own health was now an issue as he began to cough up blood, a symptom of tuberculosis.

Chekhov wrote over 500 short stories which included many, many classics including 'The Kiss' and 'The Lady with a Dog'. His collection 'At Dusk' won him the coveted Pushkin Prize when was only 26. He was also a major playwright beginning with the huge success of 'Ivanov' in 1887. In 1892 Chekhov bought a country estate north of Moscow.

It led to 'Uncle Vanya', 'The Three Sisters' and 'The Cherry Orchard'. Chekhov suffered a major lung hemorrhage in 1897 while visiting Moscow.

Title: Anton Chekhov - A Short Story Collection Author: Anton Chekhov Narrator: Mark Rice-Oxley, David Shaw-Parker, Richard Mitchley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 23 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Anton Pavlovich Chekhov was born on 29th January 1860 in Taganrog, on the south coast of Russia. His family life was difficult; his father was strict and over-bearing but his mother was a passionate story-teller, a subject Chekhov warmed to. As he later said; 'our talents we got from our father, but our soul from our mother'. At school Chekhov was distinctly average. At 16 his father mis-managed his finances and was declared bankrupt. His family fled to Moscow. Chekhov remained and eked out a living by various means, including writing and selling short sketches to newspapers, to finish his schooling. That completed and with a scholarship to Moscow University obtained he rejoined his family.He was able to help support them by selling satirical sketches and vignettes of Russian lifestyles and gradually obtained further commissions. In 1884, he qualified as a physician and, although it earned him little, he often treated the poor for free, he was fond of saying 'Medicine is my lawful wife, and literature is my mistress.'His own health was now an issue as he began to cough up blood, a symptom of tuberculosis. Despite this his writing success enabled him to move the family into more comfortable accommodation. Chekhov wrote over 500 short stories which included many, many classics including 'The Kiss' and 'The Lady with a Dog'. His collection 'At Dusk' won him the coveted Pushkin Prize when was only 26. He was also a major playwright beginning with the huge success of 'Ivanov' in 1887. In 1892 Chekhov bought a country estate north of Moscow. Here his medical skills and money helped the peasants tackle outbreaks of cholera and bouts of famine. He also built three schools, a fire station and a clinic. It left him with less time for writing but the interactions with real people gained him detailed knowledge about the peasantry and their living conditions for his stories. His most famous work, 'The Seagull' was received disastrously at its premiere in St Petersburg. It was later restaged in Moscow to highlight its psychological aspects and was a huge success. It led to 'Uncle Vanya', 'The Three Sisters' and 'The Cherry Orchard'. Chekhov suffered a major lung hemorrhage in 1897 while visiting Moscow. A formal diagnosis confirmed tuberculosis and the doctors ordered changes to his lifestyle. Despite a dread of weddings the elusive literary bachelor quietly married the actress Olga Knipper, whom he had met at rehearsals for 'The Seagull', on 25th May 1901.By May 1904 with his tuberculosis worsening and death imminent he set off for the German town of Badenweiler writing cheerful, witty letters to his family and assuring them his health was improving.

Title: The Tachypomp Author: Edward Page Mitchell Narrator: Ghizela Rowe, Eric Meyers Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 34 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Edward Page Mitchell was born in Bath, Maine on 24th March 1852 into a wealthy family. When he was eight the family moved to a house on New York's famed Fifth Avenue.In 1863 he witnessed the Draft Riots and in the aftermath Mitchell's father moved the family to Tar River, North Carolina. It was there, at the age of fourteen, that his letters were first published in the local newspaper The Bath Times.In 1872, at age twenty, whilst on a train journey to Bath, Maine, a hot cinder from the engine's smokestack flew in through the window blinding his left eye. After several weeks, while doctors attempted to restore his sight, his uninjured right eye underwent sympathetic blindness. He was now completely blind. His burnt left eye eventually regained its sight, but his uninjured right eye remained blind and was later replaced with a prosthetic glass eye. While recovering from this surgery, Mitchell wrote his dazzling story 'The Tachypomp'.Mitchell's influence on science fiction writing is incredible and pre-dated many major themes. He wrote about a man made invisible, a time-travel machine, a thinking computer, teleportation, superior mutants and mind transfer. Add to this other stories which predicted travel by pneumatic tube, electrical heating, newspapers printed at home, food-pellet concentrates, international broadcasts, and suspended animation through cryogenics and they amount to talents that are not as publicly lauded as they should be.Edward Page Mitchell died of a cerebral hemorrhage in New London, Connecticut on 22nd January 1927. He was 76.The Tachypomp is a glorious mixture of a youth looking to impress his prospective father-in-law with a seemingly outlandish solution to a scientific problem.

Title: Three Wars Author: Emile Zola Narrator: Mark Rice-Oxley, Ghizela Rowe Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 49 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Émile Édouard Charles Antoine Zola was born in Paris on 2nd April 1840. When he was 3 the family moved to Aix-en-Provence in the southeast. At 7 his father died, leaving the family on a meagre pension. In 1858, they returned to Paris. His mother had planned a law career for Émile, but he failed his baccalauréat examination twice.He took jobs as a clerk in a shipping firm and then in the sales department for the publisher Hachette. Zola also wrote political, literary and art reviews for newspapers. As a writer Zola wrote numerous short stories, essays, plays and novels. When 'La Confession de Claude' was published and received the attention of the police Hachette fired him. He continued to write and after his first major novel, 'Thérèse Raquin' (1867), Zola started the series called 'Les Rougon-Macquart', a carefully planned twenty-volume history of a single family under the reign of Napoléon III. With the publication of 'L'Assommoir', Zola became wealthy. His subsequent works, 'Nana' and La Débâcle fared even better, increasing both fame and bank balance. He was now a figurehead of the literary bourgeoisie. However, despite several nominations, he was never elected to the prestigious Académie Française.The infamous Dreyfus Affair infuriated Zola who wrote in defence of Alfred Dreyfus. His plan was to be prosecuted for libel so that the truth would be exposed. It went badly wrong. Zola was convicted for criminal libel in February 1898 and removed from the Legion of Honour. The judgment was overturned but a new suit began. Zola fled to England only to return when an Amnesty was granted. Zola said of the affair, "The truth is on the march, and nothing shall stop it."Émile Zola died on 29th September 1902 of carbon monoxide poisoning caused by an improperly ventilated chimney. On 4th June 1908 Zola's remains were transferred to the Panthéon, where he shares a crypt with Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.

Title: The Rats in the Walls Author: H.P. Lovecraft Narrator: Ghizela Rowe, Christopher Ragland Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 53 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Howard Phillips Lovecraft is among the greatest American masters of fantasy and the supernatural. Born in 1890, a native of Providence, Rhode Island, his health was uncertain from childhood and he led a sheltered early life. His semi-invalidism enabled him to read omnivorously, and as a shy imaginative child he began to invent what would in his adult life become a whole macabre fantastic world of his own, peopled by creatures out of his own weird imagination. As an adult he was retiring, almost a recluse. Tall, thin and pale, but with bright alert eyes, he was much given to wandering his native city in the dark hours of the night, and he became a devoted student of its antiquities. Although he began to write early he had nothing published until he was in his twenties. He set many of his stories around the imaginary town of Arkham, and invented an entire mythology of his own, its core being the demoniac cult of Cthulhu, based on the lore or legend that the world was at one time inhabited by another race who, in practising black magic, lost their foothold or were expelled, yet live on outside, ever ready to take possession of this earth again.Since his early death in 1937 his stories have continued to attract attention and praise from an ever-growing audience.The Rats in the Walls is one of his finest stories. Its tones are dark and chilling and its revelations upsetting and numbing. It is pure Lovecraft. H.P.

Title: [Spanish] - Cuentos de maldad (y uno que otro maldito) Author: Alma Delia Murillo Narrator: Joaquín Cosío, Maria Aura, Alma Delia Murillo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 43 minutes Release date: September 30, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: «Alma Delia Murillo, una de las narradoras y ensayistas mexicanas más sobresalientes de los últimos años.» Iker Olivares, Gatopardo Veinte relatos en torno a las peripecias posmodernas que, contados con humor negro, evidencian la inocencia con la que nos entregamos a un estilo de vida, sin comprender que ofrecemos el cuello como víctimas desde la comodidad del hogar y a un clic de distancia del posible asesino. De El vampiro del Bed and Breakfast, que va sembrando cadáveres donde se hospeda, a Jackie, la sensual repartidora de comida que entra en la casa de sus solitarios clientes y los ejecuta, pasando por Bartolo Gomer en La rebelión de los de en medio, quien provoca una revolución incendiaria en un gris corporativo de oficinistas, estos cuentos relatan cómo, en pos del éxito y la 'calidad de vida', hemos construido pequeños infiernos a través de la tecnología, la persecución de la productividad y la devoción por absurdos propósitos que, antes o después, se vuelven contra nosotros. Los protagonistas de estas historias mutan de buenas personas -incluso buenos objetos como La mesa de siempre- a seres que permiten que su lado oscuro se asome como una conquista de libertad. Desobedecen, renuncian, traicionan, matan y se dejan poseer por ese Diablo frágil que, como decía Fernando Pessoa, corrompe pero ilumina. Sobre El niño que fuimos: «Alma Delia Murillo ironiza y juega con inteligencia. Es desafiante, encantadora y libre. Leerla es dar siempre con una compañía que alegra.» Ángeles Mastretta Alma Delia Murillo Thu, 30 Sep 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/548508 thebookvoice.com 4:43:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/548508]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Cuentos de maldad (y uno que otro maldito) Author: Alma Delia Murillo Narrator: Joaquín Cosío, Maria Aura, Alma Delia Murillo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 43 minutes Release date: September 30, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: «Alma Delia Murillo, una de las narradoras y ensayistas mexicanas más sobresalientes de los últimos años.» Iker Olivares, Gatopardo Veinte relatos en torno a las peripecias posmodernas que, contados con humor negro, evidencian la inocencia con la que nos entregamos a un estilo de vida, sin comprender que ofrecemos el cuello como víctimas desde la comodidad del hogar y a un clic de distancia del posible asesino. De El vampiro del Bed and Breakfast, que va sembrando cadáveres donde se hospeda, a Jackie, la sensual repartidora de comida que entra en la casa de sus solitarios clientes y los ejecuta, pasando por Bartolo Gomer en La rebelión de los de en medio, quien provoca una revolución incendiaria en un gris corporativo de oficinistas, estos cuentos relatan cómo, en pos del éxito y la 'calidad de vida', hemos construido pequeños infiernos a través de la tecnología, la persecución de la productividad y la devoción por absurdos propósitos que, antes o después, se vuelven contra nosotros. Los protagonistas de estas historias mutan de buenas personas -incluso buenos objetos como La mesa de siempre- a seres que permiten que su lado oscuro se asome como una conquista de libertad. Desobedecen, renuncian, traicionan, matan y se dejan poseer por ese Diablo frágil que, como decía Fernando Pessoa, corrompe pero ilumina.

Title: Let Me Tell You: New Stories, Essays, and Other Writings Author: Shirley Jackson Narrator: Gary Bennett, Karissa Vacker, Linda Jones, Mark Deakins, Kirsten Potter, Kimberly Farr Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 54 minutes Release date: March 15, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY NPR • From the renowned author of “The Lottery” and The Haunting of Hill House, a spectacular volume of previously unpublished and uncollected stories, essays, and other writings. Features “Family Treasures,” nominated for the Edgar Award for Best Short Story Shirley Jackson is one of the most important American writers of the last hundred years. Since her death in 1965, her place in the landscape of twentieth-century fiction has grown only more exalted. As we approach the centenary of her birth comes this astonishing compilation of fifty-six pieces—more than forty of which have never been published before. Two of Jackson’s children co-edited this volume, culling through the vast archives of their mother’s papers at the Library of Congress, selecting only the very best for inclusion. Let Me Tell You brings together the deliciously eerie short stories Jackson is best known for, along with frank, inspiring lectures on writing, and comic essays about her large, boisterous family. Jackson’s landscape here is most frequently domestic: dinner parties and bridge, household budgets and homeward-bound commutes, children’s games and neighborly gossip. But this familiar setting is also her most subversive: She wields humor, terror, and the uncanny to explore the real challenges of marriage, parenting, and community—the pressure of social norms, the veins of distrust in love, the constant lack of time and space. For the first time, this collection showcases Shirley Jackson’s radically different modes of writing side by side. Together they show her to be a magnificent storyteller, a sharp, sly humorist, and a powerful feminist. This volume includes a Foreword by the celebrated literary critic and Jackson biographer Ruth Franklin. Praise for Let Me Tell You “Stunning.”—O: The Oprah Magazine “Let us now—at last—celebrate dangerous women writers: how cheering to see justice done with [this collection of] Shirley Jackson’s heretofore unpublished works—uniquely unsettling stories and ruthlessly barbed essays on domestic life.”—Vanity Fair “Feels like an uncanny dollhouse: Everything perfectly rendered, but something deliciously not quite right.”—NPR “There are . . . times in reading [Jackson’s] accounts of desperate women in their thirties slowly going crazy that she seems an American Jean Rhys, other times when she rivals even Flannery O’Connor in her cool depictions of inhumanity and insidious cruelty, and still others when she matches Philip K. Dick at his most hallucinatory. At her best, though, she’s just incomparable.”—The Washington Post “Offers insights into the vagaries of [Jackson’s] mind, which was ruminant and generous, accommodating such diverse figures as Dr. Seuss and Samuel Richardson.”—The New York Times Book Review “The best pieces clutch your throat, gently at first, and then with growing strength. . . . The whole collection has a timelessness.”—The Boston Globe “[Jackson’s] writing, both fiction and nonfiction, has such enduring power—she brings out the darkness in life, the poltergeists shut into everyone’s basement, and offers them up, bringing wit and even joy to the examination.”—USA Today “The closest we can get to sitting down and having a conversation with . . . one of the most original voices of her generation.”—The Huffington Post Shirley Jackson Tue, 15 Mar 2022 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/548438 thebookvoice.com 12:54:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/548438]]> to listen full audiobooks.

[Just an Ordinary Day] is a gift to a new generation.”—San Francisco Chronicle Acclaimed in her own time for her short story “The Lottery” and her novel The Haunting of Hill House—classics ranking with the work of Edgar Allan Poe—Shirley Jackson blazed a path for contemporary writers with her explorations of evil, madness, and cruelty.

Title: Slug and Other Stories Author: Megan Milks Narrator: Megan Milks Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 27 minutes Release date: November 9, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A woman metamorphoses into a giant slug; another quite literally eats her heart out; a wasp falls in love with an orchid; and hair starts sprouting from the walls. These stories slip and slide between genres—from video games to fan fiction, body horror to choose-your-own-adventure—as characters cycle through giddying changes in gender, physiology, species, and identity. Collapsing boundaries between bodies and forms, these fictions interrogate the visceral, gross, and absurd. 'This book is fucking weird,' wrote Brit Mandelo in 2015. It's only gotten weirder since. Slug and Other Stories is a revised and expanded edition of a contemporary cult classic. Now in audio, this collection is a testament to the messy anti-logic of queer feelings by a revelatory new voice. Contains mature themes.

Title: Slug and Other Stories Author: Megan Milks Narrator: Megan Milks Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 27 minutes Release date: November 9, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A woman metamorphoses into a giant slug; another quite literally eats her heart out; a wasp falls in love with an orchid; and hair starts sprouting from the walls. These stories slip and slide between genres—from video games to fan fiction, body horror to choose-your-own-adventure—as characters cycle through giddying changes in gender, physiology, species, and identity. Collapsing boundaries between bodies and forms, these fictions interrogate the visceral, gross, and absurd. 'This book is fucking weird,' wrote Brit Mandelo in 2015. It's only gotten weirder since. Slug and Other Stories is a revised and expanded edition of a contemporary cult classic. Now in audio, this collection is a testament to the messy anti-logic of queer feelings by a revelatory new voice.

Title: Rainbow Rainbow Author: Lydi Conklin Narrator: Julia Weldon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 39 minutes Release date: June 8, 2023 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: A collection of stories that celebrate the humour, darkness and depth of emotion of the queer and trans experience that’s not typically represented: liminal or uncertain identities, queer conception and queer joy. In this delightful debut collection of prize-wining stories, queer, gender-nonconforming and trans characters struggle to find love and forgiveness, despite their sometimes comic, sometimes tragic mistakes. In one story, a young lesbian tries to have a baby with her lover using an unprofessional sperm donor and a high-powered, rainbow-coloured cocktail. In another, a fifth-grader explores gender identity by dressing as an ox – instead of a matriarch – for a class Oregon Trail reenactment. Meanwhile a nonbinary person on the eve of top surgery dangerously experiments with an open relationship during the height of the COVID crisis. With insight and compassion, debut author Lydia Conklin takes their readers to a meeting of a queer feminist book club and to a convention for trans teenagers, revealing both the dark and lovable sides of their characters. The stories in Rainbow Rainbow will make you laugh and wince, sometimes at the same time.

In “False Cognates,” a formerly incarcerated attorney struggles with raising the tuition to keep his troubled son in an elite private school. In “There He Go,” a young girl whose mother moves constantly clings to a picture of the grandfather she doesn’t know but invents stories of his greatness. Characters spotlighted in one story reappear in another, providing a stunning testament to the enduring resilience of Black people as they navigate the “post-racial” period The Last Suspicious Holdout so vividly portrays.

Title: [Spanish] - Cuentos Author: Emilia Pardo Bazán Narrator: Melania Cruz, Tito Asorey, Xoel Yáñez, Elsa Veiga Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 21 minutes Release date: September 23, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: UNA NARRADORA SIN IGUAL UNOS CUENTOS QUE REVOLUCIONARON SU TIEMPO Edición de Eva Acosta, biógrafa de Pardo Bazán Además de una de las grandes narradoras del siglo XIX europeo, Emilia Pardo Bazán fue una pionera en la lucha por los derechos de la mujer en España. Entre su extensa producción literaria, que alcanzó un gran éxito en su época, la crítica ha elogiado siempre, hasta el día de hoy, sus cuentos, por valientes y modernos, y por su impecable factura. Leer ahora estas piezas supone una inesperada sorpresa: todos ellos se mantienen tan vigentes y actuales como cuando fueron escritos. A la luz de nuestro tiempo, parecen cobrar nueva vida, un vigor insospechado. La variedad de registros, la atención al detalle, el dominio de la técnica y la capacidad de desenmascarar la condición humana son algunos de los elementos que les han proporcionado esa intemporalidad. Eva Acosta, biógrafa de Pardo Bazán y una de las grandes especialista en su obra, ha llevado a cabo para este volumen una sugerente selección de sus mejores cuentos. Fantásticos, policiacos, realistas, humorísticos, de misterio, históricos o intimistas, los relatos de Pardo Bazán constituyen una de las cumbres de la narrativa española. La crítica ha dicho: «Su voluntad empecinada por vivir a su aire y la entrega a la literatura fueron fruto del mismo carácter apasionado. Lo que más me admira de esta grandísima intelectual fue la magnanimidad con la que trató sus propias contradicciones. [...] Una mujer fascinante [...] de valerosos pensamientos.» Elvira Lindo, El País «El genio literario de doña Emilia es atemporal y sus libros, los temas que trató, son hoy tan actuales como entonces e incluso oportunos.» Inés Martín Rodrigo, ABCultural «Me sorprende como buena escritora y me sorprende por su feminismo, revolucionario para su época.» Carme Riera, miembro de la Real Academia Española «Una escritora capaz de pensar sobre la insania que produce el deseo reprimido en las mujeres y hablar abiertamente de ello.» Isabel Burdiel «Una novelista de primera categoría. [...] Su genialidad radica en la forma en que mezcla la comedia, la farsa, el realismo y la Historia con un toque gótico. [...] Sus personajes se mueven en carros tirados por burros, pero podrían haberse escrito ayer.» The Guardian «Ponía a hombre y mujer en plano de igualdad y denunciaba, con irónica sutileza, la paradoja de la doble moral sexual de su época.» Eva Acosta «Una mujer brillante, preparada y pionera en su tiempo.» Alberto López, El País «Un personaje extraordinario, que aún nos permite entender cosas de la España actual.» Ramón González Férriz, El Confidencial Emilia Pardo Bazán Thu, 23 Sep 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/546860 thebookvoice.com 13:21:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/546860]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: All the Ruined Men: Stories Author: Bill Glose Narrator: Shawn Compton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 47 minutes Release date: August 2, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: For fans of Phil Klay, Kevin Powers, and Tim O'Brien: Dramatic, powerful, authentic short stories of soldiers fighting a 'forever war,' in combat and back home. Combat takes a different toll on each soldier; so does coming home. All the Ruined Men by Bill Glose comprises linked stories that show veterans struggling for normalcy as they grapple with flashbacks, injuries (both physical and psychological), damaged relationships, loss of faith, and loss of memory. Beginning in 2003, All the Ruined Men spans ten years, from the confident beginning of America’s “forever war” to the confusion and disillusionment that followed. As a former paratrooper and Gulf War veteran, author Bill Glose is closely bound to these stories. Drawing from his own experiences and military knowledge, Glose presents a cast of complex and sympathetic characters: young men who embraced what seemed like a war of just cause, who trained and fought and lived and died together, and who have returned to families, wives, children, civilian life, and an America that has lost its way. Unforgettable, moving, filled with moments of anguish, doubt, love, hope, and other emotions, All the Ruined Men is a singular debut collection. A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin's Press.

Title: [Spanish] - Rashomon Author: Ryunosuke Akutagawa Narrator: Jesús Brotóns Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 51 minutes Release date: September 23, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Una de las obras capitales del autor japonés Akutagawa Ryūnosuke, de la cual el director Akira Kurosawa tomó varios detalles a la hora de adaptar su película homónima, narra el encuentro de un sirviente humilde que acaba de ser despedido por su señor y una anciana pícara que roba el pelo de los cadáveres y vende carne de serpiente haciéndola pasar por pescado. El cuento, de final inesperado, supone una reflexión sobre los límites de la moral que sacudió a los lectores de la revista universitaria Teikoku Bungaku (Literatura imperial), donde fue publicada por primera vez. - Akutagawa Ryūnosuke (1892-1927) nació en Tokio en el seno de una familia burguesa. Desde niño desarrolló un apetito voraz por la literatura japonesa tradicional, que en la adolescencia compaginaría con la lectura de autores occidentales. Estudiante brillante, ingresó en la prestigiosa Universidad Imperial de Tokio y comenzó a publicar con éxito sus primeros relatos: «Rashōmon» (1915) y «La nariz» (1916). Tras graduarse en la universidad en 1916 trabajó como profesor de inglés en la Escuela Naval de Yokosuka. En 1918 se casó con Fumi Tsukamoto y abandonó su trabajo para dedicarse en exclusiva a la literatura gracias a un contrato con el diario Osaka Mainichi. Comenzó una época de producción muy fecunda: «Lujuria», «El otoño» o «En el bosque». Tras un viaje a China como corresponsal en 1921, su salud, ya de por sí delicada, empeoró notablemente: insomnio, neurastenia, alucinaciones y un miedo cerval a la locura no le impidieron crear las que muchos consideran sus obras maestras: «Engranajes», «Kappa» o «Vida de un idiota». El 24 de julio de 1927, a los 35 años de edad, Akutagawa puso fin a la «vaga angustia confusa» que lo consumía ingiriendo una dosis letal de Veronal.

Title: Guy de Maupassant - A Short Story Collection Author: Guy De Maupassant Narrator: Ghizela Rowe, David Shaw-Parker, Richard Mitchley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 5 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant was born on August 5th, 1850 near Dieppe in France. Maupassant's early life was badly torn when at age 11 (his younger brother Hervé was then five) his mother, Laure, a headstrong and independent-minded woman, risked social disgrace in order to obtain a legal separation from her husband.After the separation, Laure kept custody of her two boys. With the father now forcibly absent, Laure became the most influential and important figure in the young boy's life. Maupassant's education was such that he rebelled against religion and other societal norms but a developing friendship with Gustave Flaubert began to turn his mind towards creativity and writing.After graduation he volunteered for the Franco-Prussian war. With its end he moved to Paris to work as a clerk in the Navy Department. Gustave Flaubert now took him under his wing. Acting as a literary guardian to him, he guided the eager Maupassant to debuts in journalism and literature. For Maupassant these were exciting times and the awakening of his creative talents and ambitions.In 1880 he published what is considered his first great work, 'Boule de Suif', (translated as as 'Dumpling', 'Butterball', 'Ball of Fat', or 'Ball of Lard') which met with a success that was both instant and overwhelming. Flaubert at once acknowledged that it was 'a masterpiece that will endure.' Maupassant had used his talents and experiences in the war to create something unique. This decade from 1880 to 1891 was to be the most pivotal of his career. With an audience now made available by the success of 'Boule de Suif' Maupassant organised himself to work methodically and relentlessly to produce between two and four volumes of work a year. The melding of his talents and business sense and the continual hunger of sources for his works made him wealthy.In his later years he developed a desire for solitude, an obsession for self-preservation, and a fear of death as well as a paranoia of persecution caused by the syphilis he had contracted in his youth. On January 2nd, 1892, Maupassant tried to commit suicide by cutting his throat. Unsuccessful he was committed to the private asylum of Esprit Blanche at Passy, in Paris. It was here on July 6th, 1893 that Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant died at the age of only 42.1 - Guy de Maupassant - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction2 - The Piece of String 3 - Two Little Soldiers 4 - Two Friends5 - Suicides 6 - The Grave7 - An Uncomfortable Bed8 - Regret9 - Love10 - The Kiss11 - The Dowry12 - The Vendetta13 - A Dead Woman's Secret14 - Mother Sauvage Guy De Maupassant Fri, 01 Jan 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/545995 thebookvoice.com 3:5:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/545995]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Maupassant's education was such that he rebelled against religion and other societal norms but a developing friendship with Gustave Flaubert began to turn his mind towards creativity and writing.After graduation he volunteered for the Franco-Prussian war. With its end he moved to Paris to work as a clerk in the Navy Department. Gustave Flaubert now took him under his wing. Acting as a literary guardian to him, he guided the eager Maupassant to debuts in journalism and literature. For Maupassant these were exciting times and the awakening of his creative talents and ambitions.In 1880 he published what is considered his first great work, 'Boule de Suif', (translated as as 'Dumpling', 'Butterball', 'Ball of Fat', or 'Ball of Lard') which met with a success that was both instant and overwhelming. Flaubert at once acknowledged that it was 'a masterpiece that will endure.' Maupassant had used his talents and experiences in the war to create something unique. This decade from 1880 to 1891 was to be the most pivotal of his career. With an audience now made available by the success of 'Boule de Suif' Maupassant organised himself to work methodically and relentlessly to produce between two and four volumes of work a year. The melding of his talents and business sense and the continual hunger of sources for his works made him wealthy.In his later years he developed a desire for solitude, an obsession for self-preservation, and a fear of death as well as a paranoia of persecution caused by the syphilis he had contracted in his youth. On January 2nd, 1892, Maupassant tried to commit suicide by cutting his throat. Unsuccessful he was committed to the private asylum of Esprit Blanche at Passy, in Paris. It was here on July 6th, 1893 that Henri René Albert Guy de Maupassant died at the age of only 42.1 - Guy de Maupassant - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction2 - The Piece of String 3 - Two Little Soldiers 4 - Two Friends5 - Suicides 6 - The Grave7 - An Uncomfortable Bed8 - Regret9 - Love10 - The Kiss11 - The Dowry12 - The Vendetta13 - A Dead Woman's Secret14 - Mother Sauvage Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/545995]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Barry Pain - A Short Story Collection Author: Barry Pain Narrator: Ghizela Rowe, David Shaw-Parker, Richard Mitchley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 27 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Barry Eric Odell Pain was born at 3 Sydney Street in Cambridge on 28th September 1864. He was one of 4 children.He was educated at Sedbergh School and then Corpus Christi College, Cambridge where he read classics and contributed to and edited Granta.Four years of service as an Army coach followed before he moved to London. In 1889, Cornhill Magazine published his short story 'The Hundred Gates'. This opened the way for Pain to advance his literary career on several fronts. He became a contributor to Punch and The Speaker, as well as joining the staff of both the Daily Chronicle and Black and White. In 1897 he succeeded Jerome K Jerome as editor of To-Day but still contributed regularly, until 1928, to the Windsor Magazine.It is often said that Pain was discovered by Robert Louis Stevenson, who compared his work to that of Guy de Maupassant. It's an apt comparison. Pain was also a master of disturbing prose but able to inject parody and light comedy into many of his works. A simple premise could in his hands suddenly expand into a world very real but somehow emotionally fraught and on the very edge of darkness as many of these short stories demonstrate. Despite applying his talents to several genres and forms today Pain is more readily thought of, especially during the first decade of the 20th Century, as perhaps the leading British humorist of his day.

Title: Saki - A Short Story Collection Author: Saki Narrator: Mark Rice-Oxley, Ghizela Rowe, David Shaw-Parker Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 2 hours 34 minutes Release date: January 1, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Hector Hugh Munro, more familiarly known by his pen-name 'Saki' was born in what was then Akyab in British Burma on 18th December 1870. His father was an Inspector General for the Indian Imperial Police, and his mother the daughter of a Rear Admiral.When he was 2 his mother died and he and his siblings were sent back to England to be raised by their grandmother and paternal maiden aunts in a strict, puritanical household near Barnstaple, Devon. Educated by governesses Saki used many of these women as character models for his later writing.At 17 his father retried and returned to England and then embarked on a series of European travels with Saki and his siblings.After a short stint working in Burma with the Indian Imperial Police Saki decided to move to London to make a living as a writer. Initially he wrote as a journalist for a number of newspapers and magazines before attempting an historical study, 'The Rise of the Russian Empire', whose real value lay in directing him to writing short stories instead, the first of which, 'Dogged', he published in 1899.From here it was a short stab of the pen to writing political satire before in 1902 he became the foreign correspondent for The Morning Post, first in the Balkans, then Russia, Paris and back to London in 1908, where 'the agreeable life of a man of letters with a brilliant reputation awaited him.' Collections of his short stories full of witty, mischievous and often macabre stories that satirized Edwardian society and two novels now appeared in the years up to the Great War. At its' outbreak he was 43 but managed to join as an ordinary trooper. More than once he returned to the battlefield when officially too sick or injured. On 14th November 1916 Hector Hugh Munro was sheltering in crater during the Battle of the Ancre, when he was shot and killed by a German sniper. According to several sources, his last words were "Put that bloody cigarette out!"1 - Saki - A Short Story Collection - An Introduction2 - The Reticence of Lady Anne by Saki3 - The Open Window by Saki4 - A Bread and Butter Miss by Saki5 - The Story of St Vespaluus by Saki6 - Esme by Saki7 - Laura by Saki8 - Filboid Studge, the Story of a Mouse That Helped by Saki9 - The Mouse by Saki10 - The Easter Egg by Saki11 - The Bull by Saki12 - The She-Wolf by Saki13 - The Interlopers by Saki Saki Fri, 01 Jan 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/545992 thebookvoice.com 2:34:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/545992]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Kiernan’s The Ammonite Violin & Others, one of contemporary dark fantasy’s most bewitching and distinctive voices is back with another banquet of the weird and unexpected. In his introduction, Jeff VanderMeer (City of Saints and Madmen, Finch) writes, “Kiernan creates her own light in this remarkable collection, and shines it on dark places. In doing so, she gives us gritty, lyrical, horrible, beautiful truths.” The Ammonite Violin & Others, the author rises to meet the high expectations she set with such collections as Tales of Pain and Wonder, A is for Alien, and the World Fantasy Award-nominated To Charles Fort, With Love. Within these pages, you’ll discover a dazzling suite of stories situated on the borderlands between the unspeakable and the erotic, the grotesque, and the sublime. Here are stories of dream and metamorphosis, strange lands, and beings existing beyond the veil of death and beyond this earth. Here is a selkie who’s lost her sealskin, a woman with a blackhole in her heart, a fairie girl fallen to the Queen of Decay, the descent of a modern-day Orpheus, and a killer who has fashioned the most exquisite musical instrument from the remains of one of his victims. Here are dreams, nightmares, and worse things yet. The Ammonite Violin & Others is comprised of stories first published in the subscription only Sirenia Digest, run by Caitlin for her most devoted readers. This publication marks the stories’ first availability to the general public. Caitlín R.

Als Mateo Falcone und seine Frau eines Tages aufbrechen, um nach einer Schafherde zu sehen, lassen sie ihren zehnjährigen Sohn auf dem Gut zurück. Wenig später taucht ein angeschossener Bandit auf dem Gut auf, der sich vor der Polizei verstecken möchte. Fortunato versteckt ihn daraufhin in einem Heuhaufen.

Title: [German] - Darcy - Der Glückskater in Nachbars Garten Series: #2 of Die Katzenserie Author: Gesine Schulz Narrator: Lena Donnermann Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 22 minutes Release date: February 23, 2018 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Emma ist frisch getrennt und will mit ihrem Sohn Benny ein neues Leben in den Cotswolds beginnen. Ihre größte Sorge ist, wie der sensible Achtjährige auf den Ortswechsel reagieren wird. Doch dann taucht Glückskater Darcy auf und erleichtert Benny das Einleben. Über Darcy lernen die beiden auch ihren neuen Nachbarn Jeffrey kennen. Der weiß, dass Frauen in ihm eher den guten Kumpel sehen als einen Liebhaber. Dennoch verliebt er sich Hals über Kopf in Emma – was deren versnobter Schwester, die hin und wieder auf Benny aufpasst, wiederum so gar nicht schmeckt. Sie mischt sich ungefragt ein und macht Jeffreys romantische Hoffnungen zunichte. Jeffrey versucht sich damit zu begnügen, für Emma und Benny nur ein guter Nachbar und Freund zu sein. Dabei ahnt er nicht, dass Emma ebenfalls Gefühle für ihn entwickelt hat, jedoch nicht weiß, wie sie ihm das beibringen soll. Aber manchmal braucht die Liebe eben einen Schubs – mit Samtpfoten.

Title: Nobody Gets Out Alive: Stories Author: Leigh Newman Narrator: Erin Ruth Walker, Aven Shore, Jackie Sanders, Erin deWard, Carlotta Brentan, Sean Patrick Hopkins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 35 minutes Release date: April 12, 2022 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK AWARD AND THE STORY PRIZE Named a BEST BOOK OF 2022 by Oprah Daily, Vogue, Kirkus Reviews, Library Journal, and Electric Lit From a prizewinning author comes an “electric...stunning” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) debut story collection about women navigating the wilds of male-dominated Alaskan society. Set in Newman’s home state of Alaska, Nobody Gets Out Alive is an exhilarating collection about women struggling to survive not just grizzly bears and charging moose, but the raw legacy of their marriages and families. Alongside stories set in today’s Last Frontier—rife with suburban sprawl, global warming, and opioid addiction—Newman delves into remote wilderness of the 1970s and 80s, bringing to life young girls and single moms in search of a wilder, freer, more adventurous America. The final story takes place in a railroad camp in 1915, where an outspoken heiress stages an elaborate theatrical production in order to seduce the wife of her husband’s employer. “Rich with wit and wisdom, showing us that love, marriage, and family are always a bigger and more perilous adventures than backcountry trips” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review), these keenly observed stories prove there are some questions—about love, heartbreak, and the meaning of home—that can’t be outrun, no matter how hard we try. Nobody Gets Out Alive is a dazzling foil to the adventure narratives of old.

Title: The Tell-Tale Heart & The Black Cat Author: Edgar Allan Poe Narrator: Sam Kusi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 39 minutes Release date: August 3, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: The Tell-Tale Heart is a clever classical gothic horror story birthed in 1843, by the quintessential short story extraordinaire, Edgar Allan Poe. In this thrilling rollercoaster tale, we are granted access to the workings of the narrator’s heart - namely the confessions of the heart as well as the lack of having one. The unnamed dubious narrator and the obsessive loquacious speech ignite an array of topical themes including empathy, delusions of grandeur as well as its next of kin - mental health. Edgar Allan Poe’s legacy is rightfully etched in the Western canon and his prowess is often imitated but never duplicated. That simply is not possible given his unique adroitness in the short story genre. It is nonetheless lamentable that he only received his proverbial flowers for his spellbinding storytelling, posthumously. Without question, The Tell-Tale Heart accounts for a sizeable and significant part of his belated bouquet. 1843 also gave birth to The Black Cat. This is arguably Poe’s darkest literary piece which bleeds the themes of brazen blame gaming, alcoholism, domestic violence and the inescapability of one reaping what one has sown. Sheer suspense on steroids! The Paperback version also includes an excellent bonus section entitled - 'His Penmanship Bled Alcohol'.

Title: [Spanish] - Todos los cuentos Author: Gabriel García Márquez Narrator: Julio Correal, Raúl Gutiérrez, Juan Sebastián Aragón, Carlos Manuel Vesga Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 21 minutes Release date: August 5, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: Un volumen excepcional que reúne por primera vez en un solo volumen todos los cuentos del Premio Nobel de Literatura Gabriel García Márquez. El lector encontrará los relatos tempranos de García Márquez recogidos bajo el título Ojos de perro azul, donde se incluye «Monólogo de Isabel viendo llover en Macondo», célebre texto que puso los cimientos del gigantesco edificio, tan imaginario como real, de lo que acabaría siendo el espacio literario más poderoso de las letras universales de nuestro tiempo: Macondo. Con Macondo se inauguraron los años del realismo mágico y de los personajes inmersos en el mundo denso y frutal del Caribe americano. De esta etapa, en plena madurez del autor, son sus siguientes libros de cuentos: Los funerales de la Mamá Grande, donde se narran las fastuosas exequias de la auténtica soberana de Macondo, y La increíble y triste historia de la cándida Eréndira y de su abuela desalmada. Los relatos más recientes, los Doce cuentos peregrinos, trasladan el escenario a la vieja Europa para hablarnos de la suerte de los latinoamericanos emigrados, de su melancolía y su tenacidad. Cuarenta y un relatos imprescindibles que recorren la trayectoria del autor de Cien años de soledad y que constituyen un impresionante legado para la literatura universal. «Entonces me miró. Yo creía que me miraba por primera vez. Pero luego, cuando dio la vuelta por detrás del velador y yo seguía sintiendo sobre el hombro, a mis espaldas, su resbaladiza y oleosa mirada, comprendí que era yo quien la miraba por primera vez.» La crítica ha dicho... «Todos los cuentos es un mosaico deslumbrante de las esperanzas malogradas de un continente con una historia inacabada de violencia y desigualdad.» Rafael Narbona, El Cultural, El Mundo Gabriel García Márquez Thu, 05 Aug 2021 01:25:12 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/536762 thebookvoice.com 17:21:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/536762]]> to listen full audiobooks.

In the never-before-published “Just One More,” a married couple—longing for that old romantic spark—creates a playful diversion that comes with unexpected consequences. Lippman’s beloved Baltimore PI Tess Monaghan keeps a watchful eye on a criminally resourceful single father in “Seasonal Work,” while her mother, Judith, realizes that the life of “The Everyday Housewife” is an excellent cover for all kinds of secrets. In “Slow Burner,” a husband’s secret cell phone proves to be a dicey temptation for a suspicious wife. A father’s hidden past piques the curiosity of a young snoop in “The Last of Sheila-Locke Holmes.” Plus seven other brilliantly crafted stories of deception, murder, dangerous games, and love gone wrong—irrefutable evidence that Laura Lippman’s riveting fiction will more than satisfy any crime reader.

Title: [Spanish] - El tigre Author: Joël Dicker Narrator: Javier Portugués (portu) Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 42 minutes Release date: September 16, 2021 Genres: Short Stories Publisher's Summary: El primer thriller del fenómeno mundial autor de El enigma de la habitación 622 y La verdad sobre el caso Harry Quebert. MÁS DE 9.000.000 DE LECTORES SON #AdictosaDicker Ganador del Premio Goncourt des Lycéens, del Gran Premio de Novela de la Academia Francesa, del Premio Lire, del Premio Qué Leer y del Premio San Clemente A los diecinueve años Joël Dicker se presentó a un concurso literario juvenil con su relato largo El tigre. Más tarde, la presidenta del jurado le confesaría que lo habían desestimado porque no parecía creíble que una persona tan joven lo hubiera escrito. Ocho años después, Dicker obtuvo el Gran Premio de la Academia Francesa y el Premio Goncourt des Lycéens con La verdad sobre el caso Harry Quebert, que se convirtió en un fenómeno literario. En este primer gran relato, deudor de sus admirados clásicos rusos y anglosajones, Dicker se enfrenta ya a sus temas preferidos (dilemas existenciales, las grandes preguntas, la violencia y la posibilidad de redención) y demuestra su extraordinaria capacidad de atraparnos con una historia poderosa y unos personajes que se graban a fuego. Reseñas: «En El Tigre se aprecia verdaderamente lo que va a ser este escritor y su narrativa [...] un relato fundamental que dice mucho de Dicker [...] demostrando una extraordinaria capacidad de atrapar al lector desde la primera página, generando una tensión narrativa que cautiva y engancha hasta la última página, en una historia cargada de valentía, codicia y mucho orgullo. [...] además está bellamente ilustrado con los dibujos de David de las Heras. En ellos, se aprecia un relato paralelo que cabalga a la perfección con el texto de Dicker [...] un relato intrigante que hace que este autor así como el propio ilustrador causen adicción lectora visual.» Pablo Delgado, Farenheit 451(Blogs ABC) «En este primer gran relato, deudor de sus admirados clásicos rusos y anglosajones, Dicker se enfrenta ya a sus temas preferidos (dilemas existenciales, las grandes preguntas, la violencia y la posibilidad de redención) y demuestra su extraordinaria capacidad de atraparnos con una historia poderosa y unos personajes que se graban a fuego.» Culturamas «Un relato magnífico [...] que se disfruta mucho más en esta cuidada edición. [...] Una pequeña joya de un escritor extraordinario.» Ana Granger, PaperBlog «Una historia tan poderosa como el felino que le da título, como la misma vida, en una edición brillantemente ilustrada por David de las Heras. Muy recomendable.» Kutxa Ródenas, La Opinión de Murcia «Sin duda alguna, quienes quieran tener una primera toma de contacto con la obra de Joël Dicker, pueden hacerlo a través de este su primer relato publicado por la editorial Alfaguara, con unas magníficas ilustraciones de Eduardo de las Heras. El lector tiene ante sí un relato que lo mantendrá en vilo hasta la última página, pendiente en todo momento de ese esperado encuentro entre el cazador y el tigre.» Blog Un lector indiscreto «La historia fluye con naturalidad, el estilo es terso y depurado, el tono épico y legendario... una maravilla de relato que, desde luego, estaba anunciando ya que había nacido un escritor con estrella.» Antonio F.

'Сколько раз в своей жизни я протягивала руку помощи и скольким людям. А когда помощь понадобилась мне, их не было рядом. Рядом случился незнакомый человек, совершенно случайно свалившийся на голову.
