Title: A Song of War: a novel of Troy Author: David Alexander Blixt, Russell Whitfield, Vicky Alvear, Simon Turney, Libbie Hawker, Stephanie Thornton, Kate Quinn Narrator: Andrew Kingston, Saskia Maarleveld Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 18 hours 4 minutes Release date: October 10, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A SONG OF WAR Troy: city of gold, gatekeeper of the east, haven of the god-born and the lucky, a city destined to last a thousand years. But the Fates have other plans—the Fates, and a woman named Helen. In the shadow of Troy's gates, all must be reborn in the greatest war of the ancient world: slaves and queens, heroes and cowards, seers and kings . . . and these are their stories. A young princess and an embittered prince join forces to prevent a fatal elopement. A tormented seeress challenges the gods themselves to save her city from the impending disaster. A tragedy-haunted king battles private demons and envious rivals as the siege grinds on. A grizzled archer and a desperate Amazon risk their lives to avenge their dead. A trickster conceives the greatest trick of all. A goddess' son battles to save the spirit of Troy even as the walls are breached in fire and blood. Seven authors bring to life the epic tale of the Trojan War: its heroes, its villains, its survivors, its dead. Who will lie forgotten in the embers, and who will rise to shape the bloody dawn of a new age? Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Title: Fat Time and Other Stories Author: Jeffery Renard Allen Narrator: Diontae Black Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 31 minutes Release date: August 22, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: In Fat Time and Other Stories, Jimi Hendrix, Francis Bacon, the boxer Jack Johnson, Miles Davis, and a space-age Muhammad Ali find themselves in the otherworldly hands of Jeffery Renard Allen, reimagined and transformed to bring us news of America in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Along with them are characters of Allen's invention: two teenagers in an unnamed big city who stumble through a down-low relationship; an African preacher who visits a Christian religious retreat to speak on the evils of fornication in an Italian villa imported to America by Abraham Lincoln; and an albino revolutionary who struggles with leading his people into conflict. The two strands in this brilliant story collection—speculative history and tender, painful depictions of Black life in urban America—are joined by African notions of circular time in which past, present, and future exist all at once. Here the natural and supernatural, the sacred and the profane, the real and fantastical, destruction and creation are held in delicate and tense balance. Allen's work has been said to extend the tradition of Ralph Ellison, William Faulkner, Henry Roth, and Ishmael Reed, but he is blazing his own path through American literature. Fat Time and Other Stories brilliantly shows the range and depth of his imagination.

Title: When We Disappeared Series: #3 of Resilient Women of WWII Author: Elaine Stock Narrator: Dina Pearlman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 22 minutes Release date: August 15, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: 1943: When a safe house in Nazi-occupied the Netherlands becomes too dangerous for Edith, she flees. Injured, she meets Erich who promises to take her to his family's home for medical attention. En route she awakens to discover that they've entered Nazi Germany—the last place she wants to be as a Jew. In need of concealing her faith, and with limited choices, Edith becomes the private teacher to Erich's young brothers. Her roommate is a Roma with a tragic past and also hides from the Nazis in plain sight. When the new friends learn that Erich's father is a senior member of the Nazi party, they know it is time to escape. Yet, Nazi patrols complicate their travels. Then, the last person imagined supplies a means to not only leave the house but from the Reich, altogether, though their safety is at risk as they cross several national borders. Following We Shall Not Shatter and Our Daughters' Last Hope, the new friends, brought together by a common enemy, must courageously look into the eyes of evil and begin a gutsy journey to search for their families they've left behind during the war, and to help others through these dark times of prejudice and hatred.

Loyalty to Rome. Only one can remain… Centurion Faustus Valerianus has already proven his bravery and skill, marching alongside Julius Agricola for six gruelling years to conquer the north of Britain. But that was just the beginning... With Agricola back in Rome, Faustus is given a new mission: to journey to Hibernia with exiled Irish prince Tuathal Techtmar and help him reclaim his rightful throne. But victory is a fleeting thing, and back in Caledonia, fears grow that the land won so convincingly may soon slip away as Rome’s control and influence are at greater risk than ever before.

Title: The Other Side of Midnight Author: Simone St. James Narrator: Billie Fulford-Brown Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 24 minutes Release date: November 14, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “No one mixes romance, mystery, and that faint, spine-tingling sense of the supernatural, that curtain lifting in a breeze that isn't there, the hair prickling on the back of your neck, like Simone St. James. Her novels are the perfect combination of classic ghost story, historical fiction, and romantic suspense.”—Lauren Willig London, 1925. Glamorous medium Gloria Sutter made her fortune helping the bereaved contact loved ones killed during the Great War. Now she's been murdered at one of her own séances, after leaving a message requesting the help of her former friend and sole rival, Ellie Winter.   Ellie doesn't contact the dead—at least, not anymore. She specializes in miraculously finding lost items. Still, she can't refuse the final request of the only other true psychic she has known. Now Ellie must delve into Gloria's secrets and plunge back into the world of hucksters, lowlifes, and fakes. Worse, she cannot shake the attentions of handsome James Hawley, a damaged war veteran who has dedicated himself to debunking psychics.   As Ellie and James uncover the sinister mysteries of Gloria's life and death, Ellie is tormented by nightmarish visions that herald the grisly murders of those in Gloria's circle. And as Ellie’s uneasy partnership with James turns dangerously intimate, an insidious evil force begins to undermine their quest for clues, a force determined to bury the truth, and whoever seeks to expose it...

But after her uncle Toby, a renowned ghost hunter, is killed in a fall off a cliff, she must drive to the seaside village of Rothewell to pack up his belongings. Almost immediately, unsettling incidents—a book left in a cold stove, a gate swinging open on its own—escalate into terrifying events that convince Jillian an angry spirit is trying to enter the house. Is it Walking John, the two-hundred-year-old ghost who haunts Blood Moon Bay? And who beside the ghost is roaming the local woods at night? If Toby uncovered something sinister, was his death no accident?

La primera mitad del siglo XIII fue el tiempo de las mujeres y de las catedrales, una época de culto a la poesía, al amor y a la inteligencia. Su manifestación artística más sublime fue la catedral gótica, donde se fusionaron de manera sublime la belleza estilística, el orgullo ciudadano y la espiritualidad cristiana. Pero este tiempo fue también una época de persecuciones religiosas que obligaron a la clandestinidad y al silencio a personajes como la protagonista de El número de Dios, Teresa Rendol. Hija de un maestro pintor cátaro y pintora ella misma desde muy joven, su azarosa vida la llevó a ser testigo privilegiado de la construcción de las catedrales de Burgos y León, y a entrar en contacto con uno de los secretos mejor guardados, transmitidos de generación en generación entre el gremio de arquitectos, «el número de Dios», el secreto sobre el que se sustentó la construcción de las catedrales en el nuevo estilo importado de Francia. En esta novela, José Luis Corral ofrece una fascinante y sensual mirada sobre unos años decisivos en la evolución artística e ideológica de la historia de Europa, al tiempo que desentraña un misterio de extraordinaria magnitud.

Penniless and stranded in France after a bid to escape her cruel uncle goes awry, Cornelia Shaw is far from the Parisian life of leisure she imagined. Desperate and out of options, she allows herself to be recruited to Napoleon’s Grande Armée. As a naturalist, her mysterious ability to heal any wound with herbal mixtures invites awe amongst the soldiers…and suspicion. For behind Cornelia’s vast knowledge of the natural world is a secret she keeps hidden—the flowers speak to her through a mystical connection she has felt since childhood. One that her mother taught her to heed, before she disappeared. As Napoleon’s army descends on Waterloo, the flowers sing to her of a startling revelation: a girl who bears a striking resemblance to Cornelia. A girl she almost remembers—her sister, lost long ago, who seems to share the same gifts. Determined to reunite with Lijsbeth despite being on opposite sides of the war, Cornelia is drawn into a whirlwind of betrayal, secrets, and lies. Brought together by fate and magic at the peak of the war, the sisters must uncover the key to the source of the power that connects them as accusations of witchcraft swirl and threaten to destroy their very lives.

You won’t want to miss The Book of Thorns." —Paulette Kennedy, author of The Devil and Mrs. Davenport A spellbinding tale of secrets, betrayal, and magic from the author of The Heir to Blackwood Library! Penniless and stranded in France after a bid to escape her cruel uncle goes awry, Cornelia Shaw is far from the Parisian life of leisure she imagined. Desperate and out of options, she allows herself to be recruited to Napoleon’s Grande Armée. As a naturalist, her mysterious ability to heal any wound with herbal mixtures invites awe amongst the soldiers…and suspicion. For behind Cornelia’s vast knowledge of the natural world is a secret she keeps hidden—the flowers speak to her through a mystical connection she has felt since childhood. One that her mother taught her to heed, before she disappeared. As Napoleon’s army descends on Waterloo, the flowers sing to her of a startling revelation: a girl who bears a striking resemblance to Cornelia. A girl she almost remembers—her sister, lost long ago, who seems to share the same gifts. Determined to reunite with Lijsbeth despite being on opposite sides of the war, Cornelia is drawn into a whirlwind of betrayal, secrets, and lies. Brought together by fate and magic at the peak of the war, the sisters must uncover the key to the source of the power that connects them as accusations of witchcraft swirl and threaten to destroy their very lives.

Rosamund bows her head and steps slowly down the aisle. The satin of her gown whispers against the stone floor and a single tear falls into the bunch of yellow roses twisted in her trembling hands. Despite rumours of his cruelty, Rosamund has no choice but to become this man’s second wife. After her wedding, Rosamund finds herself trapped in Sir Lucien Fitznorton’s lonely country estate. As she wanders the chilly halls, made shadowy by drapes of heavy velvet, she longs for the lost comforts of her childhood home, where she was the beloved only daughter to a doting father, now buried miles away. As a young woman with no fortune of her own, only death can release her from this misery. Until she meets Joseph, her husband’s gruffly handsome new chauffeur. With his mop of salt-and-pepper hair and lilting accent, Joseph is from another world.

Despite their differences, they find themselves increasingly drawn to one other. But Sir Lucien is not only cruel, he’s devious too, and soon Rosamund finds herself caught in a dangerous web of secrets and lies. Is Rosamund’s fragile marriage nothing but a golden cage, trapping her between two men who desire her… and to what end?

Title: The Hidden Life of Cecily Larson: A Novel Author: Ellen Baker Narrator: Cassandra Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 55 minutes Release date: February 20, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.33 of Total 3 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “A family secret, a DNA test, a journey as rich and colorful as the early-day circus itself. Through Cecily Larson’s hidden life, Ellen Baker tenderly examines personal determination, lost love, family ties, and our innate need to discover our own truth.” — Lisa Wingate, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Before We Were Yours and Before and After Orphan Train meets Before We Were Yours meets Water for Elephants in this compelling multigenerational novel of survival, love, and the families we make. In 1924, four-year-old Cecily Larson’s mother reluctantly drops her off at an orphanage in Chicago, promising to be back once she’s made enough money to support both Cecily and herself. But she never returns, and shortly after high-spirited Cecily turns seven, she is sold to a traveling circus to perform as the “little sister” to glamorous bareback rider Isabelle DuMonde. With Isabelle and the rest of the circus, Cecily finally feels she’s found the family she craves. But as the years go by, the cracks in her little world begin to show. And when teenage Cecily meets and falls in love with a young roustabout named Lucky, she finds her life thrown onto an entirely unexpected—and dangerous—course. In 2015, Cecily is now 94 and living a quiet life in Minnesota, with her daughter, granddaughter, and great-grandson. But when her family decides to surprise her with an at-home DNA test, the unexpected results not only bring to light the tragic love story that Cecily has kept hidden for decades but also throw into question everything about the family she’s raised and claimed as her own for nearly seventy years. Cecily and everyone in her life must now decide who they really are and what family—and forgiveness—really mean. Sweeping through a long period of contemporary history, The Hidden Life of Cecily Larson is an immersive, compelling, and entertaining family drama centered around one remarkable woman and her determination to survive.

Title: Blue Billy’s Rogue Lexicon Author: David Lawrence Narrator: Philip Battley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 21 minutes Release date: September 26, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Oliver Twist meets The Crimson Petal and the White in this devilishly funny, emotionally charged tale of finding a new path in life after a great fall. William Dempsey rose from a life of thieving and prostitution to be the personal plaything of the Marquess of Argyll. Then a betrayal sees him returned to the rough streets of London without patronage, his West End apartment, or a place among the ton. So on a stormy night, he arrives at a house in Southwark—Marathon Moll's in the Mint—the bawdyhouse he worked in during his ascent and where he earned the name Blue Billy. Here, amidst the parties and antics at Moll's, he meets Tom, a quiet, conflicted man, who senses in Billy a kindred soul. The attraction is immediate, and they take the first, tentative steps towards each other. Then an ambitious young rogue arrives at the house. A man who asks Billy to fulfil the promise of his failed youth—he asks him to reclaim the language of his past, even if it costs him his future. Contains mature themes.

But the mood at court is tense. It is split between the conservative Catholics, loyal to Queen Catherine of Aragon, and the fashionable Francophiles, enthralled by King Henry's mistress, Anne Boleyn. While her parents sympathize with the old queen and her faith, Thomasin cannot help but be drawn to the glamour and vitality Anne represents. And her head is soon turned by the tall, dark and handsome Rafe Danvers who seems equally entranced with her. But as a ward of Anne's father, Sir Thomas Boleyn, Rafe represents the 'other' side, of which Thomasin's parents are unlikely to approve. And they have already lined up their own candidate for Thomasin's hand, Sir Giles Waterson, who comes from wealth and good standing. Thomasin finds herself torn between duty and the desire Rafe has aroused in her. But when she is drawn into a dark plot concerning Queen Catherine, she realizes the court is far more dangerous than it appears . . . Which path, and with whom, will she choose?

When Rickard succumbs to increasing pressure from the Nazis to make propaganda movies, a horrified Niki turns away from her own film aspirations and instead, begins to write. Niki's first novel, The Berlin Woman, is published under a pseudonym to great success. But Niki knows she cannot stay anonymous for long. The Nazis are cementing their power over Germany—and over her husband. Though she succeeds in escaping Rickard, he directs Hitler's Brownshirts to do the unthinkable: kidnap their daughter. With her books blacklisted, her life in danger, and Europe descending into war, Niki travels to Amsterdam, joins the Dutch Resistance, and then returns to war-torn Berlin determined to claim freedom for herself and her child, and to write her own story at last.

Title: Nightshade: Jem Flockart, Book 5 Series: #5 of Jem Flockhart Mysteries Author: E S Thomson Narrator: Rachel Atkins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 39 minutes Release date: September 22, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: London, 1851. Restless and bored after a long hot summer, apothecary and poison expert Jem Flockhart decides to redesign her physic garden. But plans are thrown into confusion when a man's skeleton is unearthed from beneath the deadly nightshade, a smaller, child-like skeleton curled at its feet. The body bears evidence of knife wounds to its ribs and arms, and is accompanied by a collection of macabre objects: a brass bowl, a curious coin-like token, a set of tiny ivory sculls. The police claim the victim is too long-buried for answers to be found, but for Jem, a corpse in her own garden is something that cannot be ignored. The plans to the garden, laid out some forty years earlier, reveal a list of five names. When Jem and Will start asking questions, the murders begin. Each victim has a past connection with the physic garden; each corpse is found with its jaw broken wide and its mouth stuffed with deadly nightshade. As they move closer to uncovering the truth Jem Flockhart and Will Quartermain encounter a dark world of addiction, madness, power and death that strikes at the very heart of Jem's own history. This time, the poison is personal.

When, five years later, Hadrian himself comes to Britannia to inspect his great wall, a new war erupts suddenly, dividing tribes and families.

Title: Redemption: An utterly heartbreaking and gripping World War 2 historical novel Series: #4 of Sisters of Wartime England Author: Madalyn Morgan Narrator: Mira Dovreni Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 14 minutes Release date: June 26, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Ed is a virgin. I didn’t know those existed – not at our age anyway. Maybe he was so drunk that he forgot all the times he’s had sex. I wish I could get that drunk. Mia and Ed have been best friends ever since they began teaching at the same school. Ed bakes cake for the staff, Mia eats the cakes. Ed can’t control his students, Mia sorts them out. Mia can’t work the photocopier, Ed shows her how. Mia’s love life might be chaotic but she’s totally devoted to her super-tidy, cat-owning, geeky but not bad-looking best friend. So, when Mia discovers Ed is still a virgin at twenty-eight, she decides to take matters into her own hands and teach him the skills he needs to seduce the pretty new maths teacher, Caitlin. It’s an education that involves panic-buying sex toys and buddy-watching porn, and when Ed graduates with an A+ for effort – and begins dating the perfect-on-paper Caitlin – Mia knows her work is done. But is Caitlin as sweet as she seems? And could Mia’s feelings for Ed be stronger than she realised? A fabulously feel-good and unmissable read for fans of rom-coms by Sophie Kinsella, Mhairi McFarlane and Beth O’Leary and anyone who’s seen and loved Sex Education, Teachers and When Harry Met Sally. If you’ve ever cringed at the memory of your first time, nursed a broken heart with wine and takeout, or fallen for a friend, you’ll love this hilariously funny, sexy, heart-warming story.

Title: [Spanish] - Corona de sangre Author: José Luis Corral Narrator: Rafael De La Rica Hernández Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 19 minutes Release date: May 25, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Para algunos, Pedro I fue siempre «el Cruel», para otros «el Justiciero». Solo la historia pudo juzgarlo. Solo esta novela puede retratarlo. Tras Matar al rey, José Luis Corral cierra la bilogía sobre el siglo más sangriento de España. 1350. Todos los grandes reinados empiezan con una corona ensangrentada. Cuando Alfonso XI, Rey de Castilla y León, muere a causa de la peste negra durante el asedio a Gibraltar, el reino queda huérfano, con las fronteras amenazadas y las cosechas devastadas. Será entonces cuando su hijo Pedro, un joven de quince años con gran sed de poder, que ha vivido apartado y marginado de la corte, se coronará rey. Empujado por las ansias de venganza de su madre, María de Portugal, y amenazado por la vil mirada de su hermano bastardo, Enrique de Trastámara, Pedro I provocará una oleada de violencia, odio y masacres que determinarían el destino de los reinos de Castilla y León, Portugal y Granada y de la Corona de Aragón. Su reinado continuaría las traiciones, las alianzas y las guerras, desatadas por la envidia, amores prohibidos, sexo e intereses ocultos que traspasaron los muros de palacio y marcaron para siempre esta época como una de las más sangrientas de nuestra Historia. Corona de sangre es la segunda entrega de la bilogía que comenzó con Matar al rey. Ambas novelas narran los sucesos acontecidos en el siglo XIV, el más cruel y violento de la historia de España, y que culmina con su último -y más controvertido- rey: Pedro I de Castilla.

Title: [Spanish] - Corona de sangre Author: José Luis Corral Narrator: Rafael De La Rica Hernández Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 19 minutes Release date: May 25, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Para algunos, Pedro I fue siempre «el Cruel», para otros «el Justiciero». Solo la historia pudo juzgarlo. Solo esta novela puede retratarlo. Tras Matar al rey, José Luis Corral cierra la bilogía sobre el siglo más sangriento de España. 1350. Todos los grandes reinados empiezan con una corona ensangrentada. Cuando Alfonso XI, Rey de Castilla y León, muere a causa de la peste negra durante el asedio a Gibraltar, el reino queda huérfano, con las fronteras amenazadas y las cosechas devastadas. Será entonces cuando su hijo Pedro, un joven de quince años con gran sed de poder, que ha vivido apartado y marginado de la corte, se coronará rey. Empujado por las ansias de venganza de su madre, María de Portugal, y amenazado por la vil mirada de su hermano bastardo, Enrique de Trastámara, Pedro I provocará una oleada de violencia, odio y masacres que determinarían el destino de los reinos de Castilla y León, Portugal y Granada y de la Corona de Aragón. Su reinado continuaría las traiciones, las alianzas y las guerras, desatadas por la envidia, amores prohibidos, sexo e intereses ocultos que traspasaron los muros de palacio y marcaron para siempre esta época como una de las más sangrientas de nuestra Historia.

Title: [Spanish] - Los bienes de este mundo Author: Irène Némirovsky Narrator: Charo Soria Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 58 minutes Release date: May 25, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Publicada por entregas bajo el epígrafe «Obra inédita de una mujer joven» para eludir la prohibición de trabajar que el gobierno de Vichy imponía a los judíos, esta novela se editaría en 1947, cinco años después del asesinato de su autora en Auschwitz. La profunda discordancia entre la indiferente placidez de la vida burguesa y el dramático devenir de los acontecimientos -que sería el leitmotiv de su siguiente y última obra, la excepcional Suite francesa-, es el hilo conductor del que Némirovsky se sirve para narrar las vicisitudes de una familia burguesa del norte de Francia sobre el trasfondo de un período especialmente convulso de la historia europea que culmina con el desmoronamiento del orden social que siguió a la ocupación alemana. Hijo de los propietarios de una importante fábrica de papel desde hace generaciones, el joven Pierre Hardelot contraviene los deseos de sus padres renunciando a su compromiso de boda con Simone, la rica heredera que han escogido para él. Para mayor escarnio, Pierre se ha enamorado de Agnès, que no tiene dote y pertenece a una familia de la pequeña burguesía de reciente arraigo en el pueblo. Así, por medio de la rebelde actitud de Pierre y la decadencia de los Hardelot, Némirovsky ha escrito una persuasiva historia de amor, dulce y amarga por igual, en la que acompaña a los personajes con una mirada inclemente, aunque siempre teñida de afecto y comprensión. La crítica ha dicho... «Otra gran historia surgida de la sabia pluma de Irène Némirovsky. Para los amantes de la legendaria Suite francesa, [...] será una hermosa sorpresa.» Tuttolibri, La Stampa «Cada uno de los treinta capítulos podría ser un relato, pero cada uno conduce de forma inexorable al siguiente. Una novela llena de inteligencia y sensibilidad.» The Scotsman «Una extraordinaria predecesora de Suite francesa [...]. Némirovsky es única en su descripción de la población que, enfrentada al advenimiento de un cataclismo y a los horrores de la guerra, se niega a creerlo y se aferra a las comodidades cotidianas.» A.S.

Title: [Spanish] - El palacio secreto Author: Dinah Jefferies Narrator: Ana Conca Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 49 minutes Release date: May 20, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Una hija rebelde 1923. Entre los antiguos muros de color miel de la diminuta isla de Malta, gente extraña se desliza entre las sombras y cualquiera puede comprar un nuevo nombre. Rosalie Delacroix huye de París para trabajar como bailarina en los clubes bohemios de sus sinuosas calles. Una hermana con un secreto 1944. Florence Baudin tiene ante sí una nueva vida después de escapar de la brutalidad de la guerra en Francia. Pero su madre, con la que apenas tiene relación, le hace una petición desesperada: que encuentre a su hermana, que desapareció años atrás. Una brecha entre generaciones Traiciones y secretos, mentiras y silencios penden entre las hermanas. Una desvaída última carta de su tía Rosalie es la única pista de Florence, la guerra es una barrera inamovible… y el tiempo se acaba. «Me transportó por completo a otro lugar y tiempo. Dinah es la reina de los escenarios suntuosos y lleva al lector sin esfuerzo desde el Devonshire de la caja de bombones hasta los clubes de cabaré del París de los años veinte y la Malta devastada por la guerra. Una historia maravillosa, de múltiples capas, poblada de personajes a los que hay que prestar atención». HAZEL GAYNOR «Dinah Jefferies hace gala de su magia narrativa en la isla de Malta. Es absorbente y sensual, llena del calor del sol mediterráneo». GILL PAUL «Poderosa, apasionada y profundamente conmovedora..., esta convincente mezcla de amor y tragedia vibra con calidez y dolor, y captura el intenso trastorno de la guerra». KATE FURNIVALL «Arrasadora y suntuosa, con un magnífico sentido del lugar descrito. Una aventura maravillosa».

Title: [Spanish] - La última librería de Londres Author: Madeline Martin Narrator: Cari Monrós Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 50 minutes Release date: May 20, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Londres, 1939. Una ciudad devastada por la guerra se une a través de los libros. Inspirada en la verdadera historia de la Segunda Guerra Mundial de las pocas librerías que sobrevivieron al Blitz, una novela atemporal de pérdida, amor y el poder imperecedero de la literatura durante la guerra. Agosto de 1939: Londres se prepara para la guerra mientras las tropas de Hitler asolan Europa. Grace Bennett siempre ha soñado con trasladarse a la ciudad, pero los búnkeres y las cortinas corridas que se encuentra a su llegada no son lo que esperaba. Y, desde luego, jamás imaginó que acabaría trabajando en Primrose Hill, una librería poco convencional, antigua y polvorienta, ubicada en el corazón de Londres; después de todo, nunca ha sido una gran lectora. Entre apagones y bombardeos a medida que se intensifican los ataques aéreos, Grace descubre un nuevo consuelo en el poder que tiene la literatura para unir a su comunidad de un modo que jamás soñó; una fuerza que triunfa incluso en las noches más oscuras del Londres devastado por la guerra. «Un relato irresistible que nos habla del poder transformador de la literatura, recordándonos la esperanza y el refugio que proporcionan nuestras librerías locales en tiempos de guerra e incertidumbre». -Kim Michele Richardson, autora de The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek «Una preciosa historia de amor, amistad y supervivencia con el telón de fondo de Londres durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial». -Jillian Cantor, autora de In Another Time y Half Life «Una carta de amor al poder que tienen los libros para unirnos, para mantener el mundo en pie cuando este se cae a pedazos. Esta nueva interpretación sobre lo que tuvo que soportar Londres durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial debería catapultar a Madeline Martin a lo más alto de la ficción histórica». -Karen Robards, autora de The Black Swan of Paris Madeline Martin Sat, 20 May 2023 08:27:48 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/690262 thebookvoice.com 10:50:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/690262]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Silence for the Dead Author: Simone St. James Narrator: Billie Fulford-Brown Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 6 minutes Release date: September 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “Portis House emerged from the fog as we approached, showing itself slowly as a long, low shadow....” In 1919, Kitty Weekes, pretty, resourceful, and on the run, falsifies her background to obtain a nursing position at Portis House, a remote hospital for soldiers left shell-shocked by the horrors of the Great War. Hiding the shame of their mental instability in what was once a magnificent private estate, the patients suffer from nervous attacks and tormenting dreams. But something more is going on at Portis House—its plaster is crumbling, its plumbing makes eerie noises, and strange breaths of cold waft through the empty rooms. It’s known that the former occupants left abruptly, but where did they go? And why do the patients all seem to share the same nightmare, one so horrific that they dare not speak of it? Kitty finds a dangerous ally in Jack Yates, an inmate who may be a war hero, a madman… or maybe both. But even as Kitty and Jack create a secret, intimate alliance to uncover the truth, disturbing revelations suggest the presence of powerful spectral forces. And when a medical catastrophe leaves them even more isolated, they must battle the menace on their own, caught in the heart of a mystery that could destroy them both.

Title: The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard Author: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Narrator: Michael Ward Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 3 minutes Release date: May 11, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Originally published in the Strand Magazine between December 1894 and September 1903. The Exploits of Brigadier Gerard by Arthur Conan Doyle, the celebrated author of Sherlock Holmes and the Lost, follows the adventures of Brigadier Etienne Gerard, a courageous soldier in the service of Napoleon. From a sleepy cafe in Paris, he whiles away the hours recounting his glories in the service of France. From his victory over the Count of the Castle of Gloom, the mysterious affair of the Ajaccio Brothers and his daring escape from Dartmoor Prison to his brush with the dastardly Marshal Millefleurs and his successful conveying of the Emperors own despatches through the enemy held towns of Soison and Senlis. Gerard never wavers in his dedication to the Emperor, or his convictions that he is the finest soldier in all of france, and therefore, the world. Adapted into several films and radio dramas across the years, George McDonald Fraser once cited Brigadier Gerard as a major inspiration for his own fictional comedic adventurer Harry Flashman.

Title: The Great Divide Author: Cristina Henriquez Narrator: Robin Miles Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 20 minutes Release date: March 5, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: ‘A gorgeous, sweeping epic’ ANN NAPOLITANO 'A master of prose'WASHINGTON POST ‘One of my favourite writers' ROXANE GAY ‘Spectacular’ JOANNE SEFTON ‘I didn’t want it to end’ SARA SHERIDAN A breathtaking historical novel following the incredible construction of the Panama Canal and casting light on the unsung people who lived and laboured in its shadow – by acclaimed author Cristina Henríquez. It is said that the Canal will be the greatest feat of engineering in history. But first, it must be built. Ada Bunting, a bold sixteen-year-old from Barbados, arrives alone in Panama as a stowaway alongside thousands of other West Indians seeking work in the grand building project of the Canal. Francisco, a local fisherman, resents the foreign nations clamouring for a slice of his country, but nothing is more upsetting for him than his son Omar’s decision to work as a digger. For Omar, whose upbringing was quiet and lonely, this job offers a chance to finally find connection and independence. Scientist John Oswald has come from further afield. He has journeyed to Panama in pursuit of one goal: eliminating malaria. But everything hangs in the balance as his wife Marian falls ill herself. When John witnesses an act of bravery and compassion from Ada one day, he hires her on the spot as a caregiver for his wife. This fateful decision sets in motion a sweeping tale of ambition, loyalty, and sacrifice. Breathtaking and impossible to put down, The Great Divide explores the lives of the labourers, fishmongers, journalists, protesters, doctors and soothsayers who lived alongside the construction of the Canal – those rarely acknowledged by history even as they carved out its course.

Title: The Shakespeare Sisters: An emotional and absolutely unputdownable WW2 historical romance Series: #1 of The Shakespeare Sisters Author: Juliet Greenwood Narrator: Sarah Durham Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 40 minutes Release date: June 6, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Four motherless sisters, raised by a distant father in a crumbling, ivy-choked country estate. A terrible war on the horizon that will tear an ancient family apart. Stratford-upon-Avon, 1940. Rosalind Arden, born into one of the oldest families in England, has grown up running wild through the walled gardens and secret passages of historic Arden House, known to have once been frequented by Shakespeare himself. But centuries of squandered wealth have left the family destitute, and Papa Arden plans to replenish the coffers by securing hasty marriages to the highest bidder for Rosalind and her sisters. Passionate and headstrong, Rosalind is quickly running out of ways to avoid this fate. But then war comes to England, and not even Arden House can remain untouched. As food shortages grip the villages and England is shrouded by black-outs, Rosalind is unexpectedly swept into the orbit of soft-spoken aspiring architect Guy Thompson… just weeks before he’s sent to fight. Heartbroken, Rosalind knows she can’t return to the golden prison of Arden. With little more than a leather-bound book of Shakespeare in tow – a secret bequest from her mother – she runs away to London. There, she throws herself into the war effort, photographing the heart-wrenching aftermath of the blitz – building a life for herself she never thought possible. Until death comes to Arden and Rosalind is called home to devastating news. With Guy having inexplicably cut contact and her father on the edge of ruin, Rosalind must choose between the life she has made for herself and saving her beautiful, broken Arden House, home to the man who has only ever tried to bend her to his will… A heartbreaking and unforgettable story full of mystery that will have you reaching for the tissues. Perfect for anyone who loves Fiona Valpy, Lucinda Riley and Dinah Jefferies. What readers are saying about Juliet Greenwood: “I really loved this book – I picked it up to read on a sunny afternoon in the garden and read it in a single sitting, swept away into the world the author created.

Title: The Shakespeare Sisters: An emotional and absolutely unputdownable WW2 historical romance Series: #1 of The Shakespeare Sisters Author: Juliet Greenwood Narrator: Sarah Durham Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 40 minutes Release date: June 6, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Four motherless sisters, raised by a distant father in a crumbling, ivy-choked country estate. A terrible war on the horizon that will tear an ancient family apart. Stratford-upon-Avon, 1940. Rosalind Arden, born into one of the oldest families in England, has grown up running wild through the walled gardens and secret passages of historic Arden House, known to have once been frequented by Shakespeare himself. But centuries of squandered wealth have left the family destitute, and Papa Arden plans to replenish the coffers by securing hasty marriages to the highest bidder for Rosalind and her sisters. Passionate and headstrong, Rosalind is quickly running out of ways to avoid this fate. But then war comes to England, and not even Arden House can remain untouched. As food shortages grip the villages and England is shrouded by black-outs, Rosalind is unexpectedly swept into the orbit of soft-spoken aspiring architect Guy Thompson… just weeks before he’s sent to fight. Heartbroken, Rosalind knows she can’t return to the golden prison of Arden. With little more than a leather-bound book of Shakespeare in tow – a secret bequest from her mother – she runs away to London. There, she throws herself into the war effort, photographing the heart-wrenching aftermath of the blitz – building a life for herself she never thought possible. Until death comes to Arden and Rosalind is called home to devastating news. With Guy having inexplicably cut contact and her father on the edge of ruin, Rosalind must choose between the life she has made for herself and saving her beautiful, broken Arden House, home to the man who has only ever tried to bend her to his will… A heartbreaking and unforgettable story full of mystery that will have you reaching for the tissues. Perfect for anyone who loves Fiona Valpy, Lucinda Riley and Dinah Jefferies.

Title: Sisters of the Southern Cross Author: Jean Grainger Narrator: Siobhan Waring Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 55 minutes Release date: June 6, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Queensland, Australia, 1936 Sister Claire McAuliffe has been called from Dungarvan, County Waterford, to do God’s work in Jumaaroo, Queensland. Along with four other sisters, she is charged with setting up a Catholic school for the education of the gold rush families. But life between the tropical Australian rainforest and the azure ocean is far from the spectacular paradise it seems. Sister Claire finds life challenging in more ways than she can count - the heat, the terrifying creatures that lurk in every nook and cranny, the crocodiles and snakes - but far more worrying is the constant presence of the much-loved mayor of Jumaaroo, Joseph McGrath. Why does a person so respected give Claire such cause for concern? Is it the cruel way he speaks about the Aboriginal people who live on the mission? A closed community run by a peculiar religious leader who seems to deeply resent the arrival of the nuns? As Claire learns of the manner in which the Bundagulgi are treated, she is forced to act, but nobody wants to upset the status quo, and a meddlesome nun suddenly is a dangerous one.

Title: Cities of Women Author: Kathleen B. Jones Narrator: Elisabeth Lagelée, Lauren Ezzo, Mia Barron Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 3 minutes Release date: September 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: In the twenty-first century, we meet Verity Frazier, a disillusioned history professor who sets out to prove that the artist responsible for the illuminated artwork in Christine de Pizan’s medieval manuscripts was a remarkable woman named Anastasia. As Anastasia’s story unfolds against the exquisitely-rendered medieval backdrop of moral disaster, political intrigue, and extraordinary creativity, Verity finds her career on the brink of collapse by her efforts to uncover evidence of the lost artist’s existence. A deeply affecting dual narrative separated by several centuries, Cities of Women examines the lives of women who dare to challenge the social norms of their days, risking their reputations and livelihoods for the sake of their passions. Inspired by a decade of research, Kathleen B. Jones has woven together a luminous and incisive masterpiece of historical fiction, evoking the spare joys and monumental pitfalls facing medieval women artists and a contemporary woman who becomes obsessed with medieval books.

Title: Under the Java Moon Author: Heather B. Moore Narrator: Bianca Amato Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 22 minutes Release date: September 5, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.75 of Total 4 Ratings of Narrator: 4 of Total 2 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Based on a true story, this gripping WWII novel captures the resilience, hope, and courage of a Dutch family who is separated during the war when the Japanese occupy the Dutch East Indies. Java Island, 1941. Six-year-old Rita Vischer cowers in her family’s dug-out bomb shelter, listening to the sirens and waiting for a bomb to fall. Her charmed life on Java—living with other Dutch families—had always been peaceful, but when Holland declares war on Japan and the Japanese army invades Indonesia, Rita’s family is forced to relocate to a POW camp, and Rita must help care for her little brother, Georgie. Mary Vischer is three months pregnant when she enters the Tjideng women’s camp with thousands of other women and children. Her husband, George, is somewhere on the Java Sea with the Dutch Navy, so she must care alone for her young children, Rita and Georgie, and her frail mother. The brutal conditions of the overcrowded camp make starvation, malaria, and dysentery a grim reality. Mary must do everything she can to keep her family alive. George Vischer survives the bombing of his minesweeper but feels little hope floating on a small dinghy in the Java Sea. Reaching the northern tip of the Thousand Islands would be a miracle. Focusing on of the love of his life, Mary, and his two children, he battles against the sea and merciless sun. He’ll do whatever it takes to close the divide between him and his family, even if it means risking being captured by the Japanese. Under the Java Moon highlights a little-known part of WWII history and the impact of war on Indonesia, its people, and the more than 100,000 Dutch men, women, and children who were funneled into prison camps and faced with the ultimate fight for survival.

Title: The Castilian Pomegranate Series: #2 of The Castilian Saga Author: Anna Belfrage Narrator: Greg Patmore Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 34 minutes Release date: July 18, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: An enraged and grieving queen commands them to retrieve her exquisite jewel and abandon their foundling brat overseas—or never return. Robert FitzStephan and his wife, Noor, have been temporarily exiled. Officially, they are to travel to the courts of Aragon and Castile as emissaries of Queen Eleanor of England. Unofficially, the queen demands two things: that they abandon Lionel, their foster son, in foreign lands and that they bring back a precious jewel—the Castilian Pomegranate. Noor would rather chop off a foot than leave Lionel in a foreign land—especially as he’s been entrusted to her by his dead father, the last true prince of Wales. And as to the jewel, stealing it would mean immediate execution … Spain in 1285 is a complicated place. France has launched a crusade against Aragon and soon enough Robert is embroiled in the conflict, standing side by side with their Aragonese hosts. Once in Castile, it is the fearsome Moors that must be fought, with Robert facing weeks separated from his young wife, a wife who is enthralled by the Castilian court—and a particular Castilian gallant. Jealousy, betrayal, and a thirst for revenge plunge Noor and Robert into life-threatening danger. Will they emerge unscathed or will savage but beautiful Castile leave them permanently scarred and damaged?

A modern American girl is about to discover just how mystical the world can be. Destry Caldbeck, smarting from being jilted at the altar, travels to Ireland on what was supposed to be her honeymoon. While visiting Dowth, an ancient Neolithic site outside of Dublin, she encounters a group of students and their instructor. Dr. Conor Da Derga is everything an Irishman should be—enormous, muscular, red-headed, and drop-dead sexy. Soon, they find themselves caught up in a maelstrom of time shifts, landing them back in the Middle Ages of Ireland's history where they discover a high king's destiny. But their situation is far more complex and dangerous than it seems. Conor was once known as the Ard-Rí of Ciannachta, a powerful ancient kingdom. As the High King, he was much respected but as he quickly discovers, his jealous brother rose up against him and Conor and Destry were banished to the nether regions by an evil wizard. It's up to Destry and Conor to save a kingdom that once belonged to them and to understand that their lives are caught up in an ancient cycle of fate they can't control. And a love that will never end.

As the High King, he was much respected but as he quickly discovers, his jealous brother rose up against him and Conor and Destry were banished to the nether regions by an evil wizard. It's up to Destry and Conor to save a kingdom that once belonged to them and to understand that their lives are caught up in an ancient cycle of fate they can't control. And a love that will never end. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/686073 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/686073]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Frontier Overland Company Series: #1 of Hammersmiths of West Texas Author: J.A. Johnstone, William W. Johnstone Narrator: Cody Roberts Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 40 minutes Release date: November 28, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.75 of Total 4 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Founded in 1866, The Frontier Overland Company was no ordinary stagecoach operation. To begin with, its founding partners met in a Wyoming saloon brawl. After a raucous burst of punching, cursing, and chair smashing, the last two men standing become friends for life. Two kindred souls with the same fighting spirit, Tucker Cobb and former Texas Ranger Butch Keeling agreed to launch a business together: a brand-new stagecoach line through the wilds of Wyoming . . . They called it the Frontier Overland Company. And a legend was born. Cobb and Keeling knew it wouldn't be easy. The nation was still healing from the War Between the States. Red Cloud's War—an armed alliance of Lakota, Northern Cheyennes, and Northern Apaho against the United States—was heating up fast. And wealthy railroad magnates were itching to lay track for their western expansion to the Pacific. But it was one ruthless businessman—King Charles Hagen—who posed the biggest danger of all. He saw Cobb and Keeling's fledging company as a direct threat to his growing shipping empire. And, unfortunately for them, he decided to squash their little stagecoach business while they're escorting a young woman to see her dying father, an army colonel, at a Wyoming fort. With Red Cloud on the warpath, Wyoming Territory is about to become hell on earth. J.A. Johnstone, William W.

Title: [Spanish] - La rosa de California Author: Jesús Maeso De La Torre Narrator: Jorge Tejedor Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 36 minutes Release date: May 12, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Después del gran éxito de su novela Comanche, Jesús Maeso de la Torre regresa a los territorios de Nuevo México de Texas, Arkansas, Montana, Mississippi y California, que pertenecieron durante tres siglos al Imperio español, y revive las correrías de los dragones tras los indios, la vida en las misiones y el gran esfuerzo que hizo la Corona por mantener su influencia en el sudoeste de los Estados Unidos. Año del Señor de 1781, misión de San Gabriel, California. El padre prior, fray Daniel Cepeda, alarmado ante la oleada de asaltos de los indios yumas (cuya inequívoca y cruel firma es dejar clavados, a la vista de todo el mundo, los despojos de sus víctimas con espinas del arbusto conocido como 'rosa de California') escribe alarmado al gobernador y capitán general don Felipe de Neve solicitando el amparo de los dragones de su majestad el rey. Los indómitos guerreros yuma, entre ellos la joven Luna Solitaria, son cada vez más temibles en sus incursiones. Si antes habían sido los comanches sus objetivos de sangre, ahora eran los blancos y en especial los frailes de las misiones hispanas y quienes vivían en ellas, mestizos, criollos y mexicanos. Deberán ahora enfrentarse a las tropas del capitán de dragones Martín de Arellano, conocido en todo el virreinato de Nueva España, desde las selvas de Guatemala hasta Arkansas, como el Capitán Grande, como lo llamaban los comanches tónkawas, los siri, wichitas y yumas.

Title: [Portuguese] - Joana D'arc: Garota, guerreira, herética... e santa Author: Katherine J. Chen Narrator: Lena Horn Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 48 minutes Release date: May 8, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Um épico emocionante, triunfo da ficção histórica, releitura feminista de uma mulher notável — e extraordinariamente real —, que deixou uma marca profunda na História. 1421. A França parece prestes a perder a guerra contra a Inglaterra. Enquanto o país se afunda na lama de batalhas sangrentas, o povo passa fome... e o rei permanece escondido. Desse caos surge uma jovem capaz de mudar o rumo da guerra e liderar os franceses à vitória. E o nome dessa garota imprudente, obstinada e brilhante – uma heroína improvável – ecoará através dos séculos: a guerreira, a herética, a santa Joana D'Arc. Nas mãos de Katherine J. Chen, o mito e a lenda de Joana D'Arc ganham vida neste romance fruto de meticulosa pesquisa. Sua vida é narrada, com maestria, desde a infância repleta tanto de alegria quanto de violência até a ascensão meteórica ao posto de líder do exército francês no fim da Guerra de Cem Anos, em meio aos perigos nos campos de batalha e às ainda mais traiçoeiras intrigas da corte. "A Joana D'Arc de Katherine J. Chen não é uma donzela piedosa, mas uma guerreira forte, mestre em estratégia e logística de guerra; e, sim, ela realmente arrancou uma flecha do próprio pescoço." – Margaret Atwood, autora de O conto da Aia "Um romance glorioso e arrebatador... Ricamente imaginado, comovente e inspirador." – Jennifer Saint, autora de Ariadne "Uma releitura pagã e uma celebração feminista da vida de Joana D'Arc, transformando a lendária santa em uma jovem imperfeita, mas justamente por isso verdadeira." – USA Today Katherine J.

Title: [Spanish] - La casa de la fortuna Author: Jessie Burton Narrator: Raquel Jalón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 49 minutes Release date: May 11, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Una joven lucha por tomar las riendas de su vida en la bella Ámsterdam del siglo XVIII Por la autora de LA CASA DE LAS MINIATURAS Continuación de La casa de las miniaturas que se centra en Ámsterdam, en 1705, donde Thea Brandt está lista para recibir la edad adulta; pero en el Herengracht, su padre y la tía Nella no paran de discutir, y la familia está vendiendo los muebles para poder comer. La presión recae sobre ella para que se case con un buen partido y ascienda en sociedad. Cuando la joven recibe una invitación al baile más exclusivo de Ámsterdam, Nella no cabe en sí de gozo, pero al experimentar un extraño cosquilleo en la nuca, recuerda a la miniaturista que jugó con su suerte hace dieciocho años. Quizá ahora haya vuelto... Una historia de destino y ambición, secretos y sueños, y la determinación de una joven por controlar su propio devenir y ser quien desea en tiempos convulsos. La crítica ha dicho: «Un relato evocador y absorbente que se mueve entre la tradición y la libertad. [...] Una simbiosis entre la atmósfera libertina de cierta literatura realista francesa y el impulso atrevido de la literatura rusa. [...] Cautivadora e introspectiva a partes iguales.» La Vanguardia «Un relato escrito de manera maravillosa y completamente absorbente. Los nuevos lectores estarán encantados de poder disfrutar este libro sin haber leído el primero, pero es probable que lo busquen para pasar un poco más de tiempo en la mágica Ámsterdam de Burton.» Library Journal «Jessie Burton es una maestra de la narración que retrata vívidamente la Ámsterdam del siglo XVIII. Me he sentido como si estuviera en la ciudad con Thea y Nella, y lo he sentido por ellas cuando el abismo existente entre ambas se abría. El coste de guardar secretos y el peligro de no ser capaz de comunicarnos con nuestros allegados vibra a lo largo de estas páginas exquisitas, imposibles de dejar.» Janet Skeslien Charles, autora de La biblioteca de París «El detalle de la vibrante época, las emocionantes vidas interiores de los personajes y el gratificante viaje a la madurez de Thea constituyen una combinación ganadora. Los lectores disfrutarán del regreso de Nella y su mundo.» Publisher's Weekly «Inteligente y satisfactoria. [...] Burton es una observadora perspicaz. [...] Una continuación digna, madura y seria.» The Guardian «Elegante, evocadora, absorbente. Me ha encantado.» Marian Keyes «Un libro de gran belleza y perspicacia. [...] Impresionante. Burton es una maestra de la narración.» Elizabeth Day «Magnífica, elegante y evocadora.» Prima «El libro más bonito que leerás este año. Un logro espectacular. [...] Te romperá el corazón y volverá a recomponértelo. [...] Brillante, sinuoso, una verdadera maravilla.» Kate Williams «Elegante suspense histórico.» Grazia «Regresando al mundo de La casa de las miniaturas, su libro superventas, la historia de Jessie Burton sobre una joven de la Ámsterdam del siglo XVIII demuestra que está en plena forma.» The Observer «Una novela placentera que no podrás dejar.» Sunday Express «Los fans de La casa de las miniaturas están de enhorabuena con esta continuación.» Red Jessie Burton Thu, 11 May 2023 08:27:48 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/685599 thebookvoice.com 12:49:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/685599]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - La casa de la fortuna Author: Jessie Burton Narrator: Raquel Jalón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 49 minutes Release date: May 11, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Una joven lucha por tomar las riendas de su vida en la bella Ámsterdam del siglo XVIII Por la autora de LA CASA DE LAS MINIATURAS Continuación de La casa de las miniaturas que se centra en Ámsterdam, en 1705, donde Thea Brandt está lista para recibir la edad adulta; pero en el Herengracht, su padre y la tía Nella no paran de discutir, y la familia está vendiendo los muebles para poder comer. La presión recae sobre ella para que se case con un buen partido y ascienda en sociedad. Cuando la joven recibe una invitación al baile más exclusivo de Ámsterdam, Nella no cabe en sí de gozo, pero al experimentar un extraño cosquilleo en la nuca, recuerda a la miniaturista que jugó con su suerte hace dieciocho años. Quizá ahora haya vuelto... Una historia de destino y ambición, secretos y sueños, y la determinación de una joven por controlar su propio devenir y ser quien desea en tiempos convulsos. La crítica ha dicho: «Un relato evocador y absorbente que se mueve entre la tradición y la libertad. [...] Una simbiosis entre la atmósfera libertina de cierta literatura realista francesa y el impulso atrevido de la literatura rusa. [...] Cautivadora e introspectiva a partes iguales.» La Vanguardia «Un relato escrito de manera maravillosa y completamente absorbente. Los nuevos lectores estarán encantados de poder disfrutar este libro sin haber leído el primero, pero es probable que lo busquen para pasar un poco más de tiempo en la mágica Ámsterdam de Burton.» Library Journal «Jessie Burton es una maestra de la narración que retrata vívidamente la Ámsterdam del siglo XVIII. Me he sentido como si estuviera en la ciudad con Thea y Nella, y lo he sentido por ellas cuando el abismo existente entre ambas se abría. El coste de guardar secretos y el peligro de no ser capaz de comunicarnos con nuestros allegados vibra a lo largo de estas páginas exquisitas, imposibles de dejar.» Janet Skeslien Charles, autora de La biblioteca de París «El detalle de la vibrante época, las emocionantes vidas interiores de los personajes y el gratificante viaje a la madurez de Thea constituyen una combinación ganadora. Los lectores disfrutarán del regreso de Nella y su mundo.» Publisher's Weekly «Inteligente y satisfactoria. [...] Burton es una observadora perspicaz. [...] Una continuación digna, madura y seria.» The Guardian «Elegante, evocadora, absorbente. Me ha encantado.» Marian Keyes «Un libro de gran belleza y perspicacia. [...] Impresionante.

Ni siquiera cuando llega el final. **Uno de los libros más esperados del año según el New York Times, Washington Post, Today.com, Goodreads, Literary Hub, BookPage, BBC.com, and Zibby Mag** Alma Cruz ha decidido ponerle punto final a su carrera de escritora, pero teme acabar como su amiga, una exitosa novelista arrastrada a la locura por un libro que jamás terminó de escribir. Por eso, cuando hereda un modesto terreno en República Dominicana, se le ocurre sepultar allí sus decenas de manuscritos inconclusos. Quiere que descansen en paz en la misma tierra donde yacen sus raíces. Pero a diferencia de Alma, los protagonistas de sus relatos aún tienen mucho por decir, y encuentran en Filomena, la reservada cuidadora del cementerio, una interlocutora empática y atenta. Al compartir sus historiasBienvenida, la exesposa olvidada del dictador Rafael Trujillo; Manuel Cruz, un médico exiliado durante el régimen, y la misma Filomena convertirán el cementerio en un lugar mágico.Un santuario donde quienes han sido silenciados hallarán el sentido que anhelan en la vitalidad imperecedera de los cuentos que aún quedan por contar.

She wants them to rest in peace in the same land where her roots are.  But unlike Alma, the protagonists of her stories still have plenty to say, and they find in Filomena, the reserved caretaker of the cemetery, an empathetic and attentive interlocutor. By sharing their stories, Bienvenida, the forgotten ex-wife of dictator Rafael Trujillo; Manuel Cruz, a doctor exiled during the regime, and Filomena herself will turn the cemetery into a magical place, a sanctuary where those who have been silenced will find the meaning they yearn for in the imperishable vitality of the untold stories.

Title: The Sisters of Belfast: A Novel Author: Melanie Maure Narrator: Aoife Mcmahon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 18 minutes Release date: February 27, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: In the spirit of Heather Morris, Kate Quinn, and Pam Jenoff, an enthralling and deeply moving story that begins during World War II, about orphaned twin sisters in Ireland whose lives diverge for decades, until fate—and faith—reunite them in the twilight of their lives. Orphaned during the Second World War, Aelish and Isabel McGuire—known as the twins of Belfast—are given over to the austere care of the Sisters of Bethlehem. Though they are each all the other has, the girls are propelled in opposite directions as they grow up. Rebellious Isabel turns her back on the church and Ireland, traveling to Newfoundland where she pursues a perilous yet independent life. Devout Aelish chooses to remain in Northern Ireland and takes the veil, burying painful truths beneath years of silence. For decades the two are separated, each unaware of the other’s life. But after years of isolation Aelish is unexpectedly summoned to Newfoundland, where she and her estranged sister begin to bridge the chasm between them. Reunion brings to light the painful secrets and seismic deceptions that have kept these sisters apart, leaving the McGuire twins to begin reconstructing their understanding about themselves as women and as family–what they know of love, hope, and above all, forgiveness. A story of faith—in religion, in the world, and in one another—Sisters of Belfast is a heartbreaking, tragic, and deeply moving novel about survival and the enduring power of sisterhood.

Title: The Emperor and the Endless Palace Author: Justinian Huang Narrator: Dylan J. Locke, Will Dao, Telly Leung Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 52 minutes Release date: March 26, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: "A sweeping triumph in queer romance." –Booklist “What if I told you that the feeling we call love is actually the feeling of metaphysical recognition, when your soul remembers someone from a previous life?” In the year 4 BCE, an ambitious courtier is called upon to seduce the young emperor—but quickly discovers they are both ruled by blood, sex and intrigue. In 1740, a lonely innkeeper agrees to help a mysterious visitor procure a rare medicine, only to unleash an otherworldly terror instead. And in present-day Los Angeles, a college student meets a beautiful stranger and cannot shake the feeling they’ve met before. Across these seemingly unrelated timelines woven together only by the twists and turns of fate, two men are reborn, lifetime after lifetime. Within the treacherous walls of an ancient palace and the boundless forests of the Asian wilderness to the heart-pounding cement floors of underground rave scenes, our lovers are inexplicably drawn to each other, constantly tested by the worlds around them. As their many lives intertwine, they begin to realize the power of their undying love—a power that transcends time itself…but one that might consume them both. An unpredictable roller coaster of a debut novel, The Emperor and the Endless Palace is a genre-bending spicy romantasy that challenges everything we think we know about true love. AUTHOR'S NOTE: The Emperor and the Endless Palace is a heart-pounding romantasy, full of shocking twists, morally shifty characters, and erotic thrills. When it comes to the romance within this novel, you can expect equal parts mess and swoon, but its central thread is an epic tale of true love against all the odds.

Title: The Talented Mrs Greenway: the unmissable Australian historical novel of 2023 for readers of Kate Grenville and Geraldine Brooks Author: Tea Cooper Narrator: Annabelle Tudor Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 58 minutes Release date: November 1, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: From a bestselling Australian author, this compellingly realised novel brings to life the story of an enigmatic figure, wife to feted colonial architect Francis Greenway, and asks, whose hand really shaped Sydney? Who is the talented Mrs Greenway? 1814 Sydney When Mary Greenway, freshly arrived from the old country, steps into the maelstrom of Sydney Town with three children at her skirts, she has high hopes of a new beginning, despite having little money and a husband in irons. After all, the sudden death of her sadistic first husband has meant freedom from her gilded cage and Francis Greenway is an architect of some promise, under the protection of Admiral Phillip himself. Mary herself is a woman of great resources and an even greater creative passion, a passion that will surely burn through anything that the filthy, burgeoning, vitality of colonial Sydney can throw at her. Soon ensconced in a tiny cottage in George Street, Mary sets about moulding a life for her family from the unpromising clay of this new colony, with a determination fired in equal parts by guilt for her disastrous past action that nearly brought ruin to them all and desire to see her true calling realised. When she is befriended by Elizabeth Macquarie it seems that fate is smiling on them with the promise of a better life in her grasp. But fate is a difficult mistress and with past secrets to keep, and current betrayals on the brink of discovery, the stakes are higher than ever. With Mary's grip on this new life slipping, will her past lies come back to haunt her?

Who is the talented Mrs Greenway? 1814 Sydney When Mary Greenway, freshly arrived from the old country, steps into the maelstrom of Sydney Town with three children at her skirts, she has high hopes of a new beginning, despite having little money and a husband in irons. After all, the sudden death of her sadistic first husband has meant freedom from her gilded cage and Francis Greenway is an architect of some promise, under the protection of Admiral Phillip himself. Mary herself is a woman of great resources and an even greater creative passion, a passion that will surely burn through anything that the filthy, burgeoning, vitality of colonial Sydney can throw at her. Soon ensconced in a tiny cottage in George Street, Mary sets about moulding a life for her family from the unpromising clay of this new colony, with a determination fired in equal parts by guilt for her disastrous past action that nearly brought ruin to them all and desire to see her true calling realised. When she is befriended by Elizabeth Macquarie it seems that fate is smiling on them with the promise of a better life in her grasp. But fate is a difficult mistress and with past secrets to keep, and current betrayals on the brink of discovery, the stakes are higher than ever. With Mary's grip on this new life slipping, will her past lies come back to haunt her? https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/685015 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/685015]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Rabindranath Tagore: A BBC Radio Collection: Including The Home and the World & The Red Oleander Author: Rabindranath Tagore Narrator: Shireen Shah, Zia Mohyeddin, Saeed Jaffrey, Renu Setna, Ronny Jhutti, Sacha Dhawan, Indira Varma, Aileen Gonsalves, Peter Barker, Full Cast, Sam Dastor Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 32 minutes Release date: December 14, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A comprehensive anthology of dramatisations and readings of Tagore's finest works, plus bonus documentaries Bengali polymath Rabindranath Tagore was the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. A novelist, poet, playwright, composer, artist and philosopher, he wrote both the Indian and Bangladeshi national anthems; exchanged ideas with Yeats, Einstein and Gandhi, and was hugely influential in promoting Indian culture to the West. This collection includes some of Tagore's key novels, plays and short stories, as well as his best-known poem and four fascinating biographical programmes. We begin with two adaptations by award-winning dramatist Tanika Gupta. The Home and the World, starring Indira Varma and Sacha Dhawan, relocates Tagore's classic 1916 novel of love, power and political awakening to a contemporary British Muslim setting. Often acclaimed as Tagore's best play, The Red Oleander stars Saeed Jaffrey and Aileen Gonsalves, and tells the story of a beautiful girl who comes to a gold mining community and foments a revolution against its tyrannical king. Next up is a dramatisation of the novelette Farewell, My Friend, a romantic, delightful tale of two young lovers starring Sam Dastor and Shireen Shah. It is followed by three short stories: 'The Postmaster' and 'The Kabuliwalah', read by Ronny Jhutti, and 'Wealth Surrendered', read by Renu Setna. Tagore bared his musical soul in the poem 'Broken Song', read here by Peter Barker, and in Centurions: Rabindranath Tagore, poet William Radice and theatre director Jatinder Verma explain why it ranks as one of the 100 greatest art works of the 20th Century. Tanika Gupta joins presenter Matthew Parris and translator Ketaki Kushari Dyson to share her love of Tagore's writing in Great Lives: Tanika Gupta on Rabindranath Tagore, and Zia Mohyeddin reads a selection of his epistolary observations on English society and customs in Letters from Europe. Concluding the collection, Rabindranath Tagore: The Bard of Bengal explores the life and legacy of South Asia's Shakespeare.

Title: Mr Smith to You Author: Kerry Taylor Narrator: Anna Hruby Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 24 minutes Release date: May 30, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A novel based on the true story of Australian jockey Bill Smith – a life lived in secret. For most of his 76 years, Bill Smith preferred solitude over socialising, horses over people and confidentiality over confidantes. As a jockey, he was known for always turning up already fully kitted out in his silks. But now, in his advancing years, a fall lands him in full-time care and it becomes impossible to maintain his privacy. Nurse Maureen Bannon resents having to look after ‘the geries', especially grumpy old buggers like Mr Smith, but when she discovers Bill's secret an unlikely alliance is formed. Bill was assigned female at birth, a fact that shaped his life but never limited his ambition. With Mr Smith's health declining and time running out, Maureen wants to find someone who knows and loves him, but only one name seems to mean anything to Bill – Catherine, his first love.

For most of his 76 years, Bill Smith preferred solitude over socialising, horses over people and confidentiality over confidantes. As a jockey, he was known for always turning up already fully kitted out in his silks. But now, in his advancing years, a fall lands him in full-time care and it becomes impossible to maintain his privacy. Nurse Maureen Bannon resents having to look after ‘the geries', especially grumpy old buggers like Mr Smith, but when she discovers Bill's secret an unlikely alliance is formed. Bill was assigned female at birth, a fact that shaped his life but never limited his ambition. With Mr Smith's health declining and time running out, Maureen wants to find someone who knows and loves him, but only one name seems to mean anything to Bill – Catherine, his first love.

Title: The Book of Fire: A Novel Author: Christy Lefteri Narrator: Alix Dunmore Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 0 minutes Release date: January 2, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “A tender depiction of loss and healing that raises questions about guilt and blame in the age of climate change.”—People “As with The Beekeeper of Aleppo, Lefteri transports the reader to a once lush and now destroyed world.”—Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Nightingale In present-day Greece, deep in an ancient forest, lives a family: Irini, a musician, who teaches children to read and play music; her husband, Tasso, who paints pictures of the forest, his greatest muse; and Chara, their young daughter, whose name means joy. On the fateful day that will forever alter the trajectory of their lives, flames chase fleeing birds across the sky. The wildfire that will consume their home, and their lives as they know it, races toward them. Months later, as the village tries to rebuild, Irini stumbles upon the man who started the fire, a land speculator who had intended only a small, controlled burn to clear forestland to build on but instead ignited a catastrophe. He is dying, although the cause is unclear, and in her anger at all he took from them, Irini makes a split-second decision that will haunt her. As the local police investigate the suspicious death, Tasso mourns his father, who has not been seen since before the fire. Tasso’s hands were burnt in the flames, leaving him unable to paint, and he struggles to cope with the overwhelming loss of his artistic voice and his beloved forest. Only his young daughter, who wants to repair the damage that’s been done, gives him hope for the future. Gorgeously written, sweeping in scope and intimate in tone, The Book of Fire is a masterful work about the search for meaning in the wake of tragedy, as well as the universal ties that bind people together, and to the land that they call home.

Title: [Spanish] - La joven del pelo rojo Author: Buzzy Jackson Narrator: Anna Mestre, Lilian Rodas Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 33 minutes Release date: May 4, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: LA RESISTENCIA LA ADORA. LOS NAZIS LA TEMEN. Basada en la historia real de amor y lealtad de Hannie Schaft, La joven del pelo rojo es una novela sobre los límites a los que nos enfrentamos cuando se ponen a prueba nuestros valores. Ámsterdam, 1940. Hannie es una estudiante de diecinueve años y, a pesar de que vive en los Países Bajos ocupados, tiene grandes ambiciones de futuro. No obstante, no tarda en descubrir que, mientras el fascismo se extiende por su país, sus seres queridos ya no están a salvo. Movida por el amor y la indignación, se une a la Resistencia y descubre en su interior una ferocidad que la empuja a usar todas sus armas, incluida su sensualidad, para ejecutar a sus enemigos. Y aunque su humanidad se resiente, Hannie encuentra entre los rebeldes una nueva familia y un romance inesperado. Conforme se adentra en un mundo de conspiraciones, engaños y asesinatos, los rumores corren como la pólvora entre enemigos y aliados. Todos saben de su existencia, pero desconocen su nombre: para ellos es «la joven del pelo rojo». Una rival digna ante cualquier nazi. Una auténtica amenaza. Y un objetivo a abatir. La crítica ha dicho: «Con un equilibrio exquisito entre el secretismo, la clandestinidad, la aplastante realidad de lo que supone acechar a tu objetivo y el temor paralizante por ser descubierto, La joven del pelo rojo nos muestra el coraje y el poder de una mujer comprometida con hacer lo correcto en un mundo retorcido». Booklist «Buzzy Jackson recrea la vida incendiaria de Hannie Shaft, y lo hace a partir de un puñado de cenizas y unas pocas chispas. Es una novela emocionante sobre la resiliencia». Elizabeth Wein, autora de Nombre en clave: Verity «Una novela cautivadora y apasionante sobre el coraje necesario para hacer lo correcto. Hannie Schaft es toda una inspiración». Judy Batalion, autora de Hijas de la resistencia «Sí, La joven del pelo rojo es una novela inspiradora, empoderadora y oportuna, llena de detalles convincentes y perfectamente documentada, pero es más que eso: es una historia inmersiva sobre una momento histórico aterrador, a través del cual nos guía la heroína que todos necesitamos». Laurie Frankel, autora de Tú, hoy y siempre «Esta novela no es solo brillante: es una vara con la que medir adónde estaríamos dispuestos a llegar para proteger a los que amamos. ¿Qué riesgos asumiríamos? ¿Hasta dónde aguantaríamos?». Jamie Ford, autora de Hasta que volvamos a vernos «Esta es una historia sobre una joven que se enfrenta, jugándose la vida, al nazismo... Una lectura absorbente».

LOS NAZIS LA TEMEN. Basada en la historia real de amor y lealtad de Hannie Schaft, La joven del pelo rojo es una novela sobre los límites a los que nos enfrentamos cuando se ponen a prueba nuestros valores. Ámsterdam, 1940. Hannie es una estudiante de diecinueve años y, a pesar de que vive en los Países Bajos ocupados, tiene grandes ambiciones de futuro. No obstante, no tarda en descubrir que, mientras el fascismo se extiende por su país, sus seres queridos ya no están a salvo. Movida por el amor y la indignación, se une a la Resistencia y descubre en su interior una ferocidad que la empuja a usar todas sus armas, incluida su sensualidad, para ejecutar a sus enemigos. Y aunque su humanidad se resiente, Hannie encuentra entre los rebeldes una nueva familia y un romance inesperado. Conforme se adentra en un mundo de conspiraciones, engaños y asesinatos, los rumores corren como la pólvora entre enemigos y aliados. Todos saben de su existencia, pero desconocen su nombre: para ellos es «la joven del pelo rojo». Una rival digna ante cualquier nazi. Una auténtica amenaza. Y un objetivo a abatir.

Title: You Dreamed of Empires: A Novel Author: álvaro Enrigue Narrator: Gabriel Porras Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 24 minutes Release date: January 9, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A NEW YORK TIMES TOP TEN BOOK OF 2024 A NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY TOP TEN BOOK OF THE YEAR 'Short, strange, spiky and sublime.” —Dwight Garner, New York Times “Funny, ghastly, eye-opening, marvelous.” —Wall Street Journal From the visionary author of Sudden Death, a hallucinatory, revelatory colonial revenge story. One morning in 1519, conquistador Hernán Cortés enters the city of Tenochtitlan – today's Mexico City. Later that day, he will meet the emperor Moctezuma in a collision of two worlds, two empires, two languages, two possible futures. Cortés is accompanied by his captains, his troops, his prized horses, and his two translators: Friar Aguilar, a taciturn friar, and Malinalli, an enslaved, strategic Nahua princess. After nearly bungling their entrance to the city, the Spaniards are greeted at a ceremonial welcome meal by the steely Aztec princess Atotoxtli, sister and wife of Moctezuma. As they await their meeting with the emperor – who is at a political and spiritual crossroads, and relies on hallucinogens to get by – Cortés and his entourage are ensconced in the labyrinthine palace. Soon, one of Cortés’s captains, Jazmín Caldera, overwhelmed by the grandeur of the place, begins to question the ease with which they were welcomed into the city, and wonders at the chances of getting out alive, much less conquering the empire. And what if... they don't? You Dreamed of Empires brings Tenochtitlan to life at its height, and reimagines its destiny. The incomparably original Álvaro Enrigue sets afire the moment of conquest and turns it into a moment of revolution, a restitutive, fantastical counterattack, in a novel so electric and so unique that it feels like a dream. álvaro Enrigue Tue, 09 Jan 2024 08:27:48 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/684382 thebookvoice.com 6:24:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/684382]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Harrow) about a ruined mansion by the sea, the djinn that haunts it, and a curious girl who unearths the tragedy that happened there a hundred years previous Akbar Manzil was once a grand estate off the coast of South Africa. Nearly a century later, it stands in ruins: an isolated boardinghouse for eclectic misfits, seeking solely to disappear into the mansion’s dark corridors. Except for Sana. Unlike the others, she is curious and questioning and finds herself irresistibly drawn to the history of the mansion: To the eerie and forgotten East Wing, home to a clutter of broken and abandoned objects—and to the door at its end, locked for decades. Behind the door is a bedroom frozen in time and a worn diary that whispers of a dark past: the long-forgotten story of a young woman named Meena, who died there tragically a hundred years ago. Watching Sana from the room’s shadows is a besotted, grieving djinn, an invisible spirit who has haunted the mansion since her mysterious death. Obsessed with Meena’s story, and unaware of the creature that follows her, Sana digs into the past like fingers into a wound, dredging up old and terrible secrets that will change the lives of everyone living and dead at Akbar Manzil. Sublime, heart-wrenching, and lyrically stunning, The Djinn Waits a Hundred Years is a haunting, a love story, and a mystery, all twined beautifully into one young girl’s search for belonging.

Title: Picasso's Lovers Author: Jeanne Mackin Narrator: Caroline Hewitt, Gilli Messer, Hillary Huber Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 49 minutes Release date: January 23, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “A complex, absorbing portrait”—People A tangled and vivid portrait of the women caught in Picasso’s charismatic orbit through the affairs, the scandals, and the art—only this time, they hold the brush. The women of Picasso’s life are glamorous and elusive, existing in the shadow of his fame—until 1950s aspiring journalist Alana Olson determines to bring one into the light. Unsure of what to expect but bent on uncovering what really lies beneath the canvas, Alana steps into Sara Murphy’s well-guarded home to discover a past complicated by secrets and intrigue. Sara paints a luxurious picture of the French Riviera in 1923, but also a tragic one. The more Sara reveals, the more cracks emerge in Picasso’s once-vibrant social circle—and the more Alana feels a disturbing convergence with her own life. Who are these other muses? What became of them? What will become of her?    Desperate to trace the threads, Alana dives into the glittering lives of the past. But to do so she must contend with her own reality, including a strained engagement, the male-dominated world of art journalism, and the rising threat to civil rights in America. With hard truths peeling apart around her, it turns out that the most extraordinary portrait Alana encounters is her own.

Title: The Briar Club Author: Kate Quinn Narrator: Saskia Maarleveld Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 2 minutes Release date: July 18, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye and The Rose Code returns with a haunting and powerful story of female friendships and secrets in a Washington, DC, boardinghouse during the McCarthy era. Washington, D.C., 1950 Everyone keeps to themselves at Briarwood House, an all-female boarding house in the heart of the US capital, where secrets hide behind respectable facades. But when the mysterious Grace March moves into the attic room, she draws her oddball collection of neighbours – a poised English beauty, a policeman’s daughter, a frustrated female baseball star, and a rabidly pro-McCarthy typist – into an unlikely friendship. Grace’s weekly attic-room dinner parties and window-brewed sun tea become a healing balm on all their troubled lives, but she hides a terrible secret of her own. And when a shocking act of violence tears the house apart, the Briar Club must decide once and for all: who is the true enemy in their midst? Capturing the paranoia of the McCarthy era and evoking the changing roles for women in postwar America, The Briar Club is an intimate and thrilling novel of secrets and loyalty put to the test.

Title: Tales of London: Hawksmoor and others: Four BBC Radio 4 Dramas Author: Peter Ackroyd Narrator: Miranda Foster, Anthony Ofoegbu, Jamie Foreman, Philip Glenister, Tracy-Ann Oberman, Adjoa Andoh, Philip Jackson, Full Cast, Peter Marinker, Norman Rodway, Simon Callow, Nigel Anthony Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 18 minutes Release date: January 25, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Stunning all-star adaptations of Ackroyd's intriguing London stories A superb collection of dramas guaranteed to thrill and entertain from best-selling author Peter Ackroyd. Set in the heart of London, these star-studded adaptations feature parallel investigations into killings across two centuries, black magic, haunted houses, holy ghosts and a stunning performance by Simon Callow as the magnificent Charles Dickens. Novelist, biographer and critic, Peter Ackroyd, has cemented his place at the heart of the culture and history of London. This fantastic collection is full of vitality from a world-class author and stellar cast. Hawksmoor - London, 1711: Nicholas Dyer, an 18th-century architect, builds churches to the glory of God, but he is hiding a dreadful purpose. Nicholas Hawksmoor, a detective in contemporary London, is called to investigate a series of brutal murders. The key lies deep in the past, but will the detective be able to solve the case before another life is lost...? Philip Jackson, best known for his role as Chief Inspector Japp in the TV and radio productions of Poirot, stars in the title role. The House of Doctor Dee - Matthew Palmer is left an old house in London's Clerkenwell. Once owned by an Elizabethan scholar who was reputedly involved in black magic, the house hides dark secrets. Featuring Philip Glenister, best known for his role in Life on Mars and Eastenders' Tracy-Ann Oberman. The City Speaks - A unique series of dramas based on Ackroyd's short story in which the Virgin Mary makes an appearance in the City of London. The stories range from humorous to highly emotional, from heart-warming to bizarre: Canary Wharf resembles the Emerald City, voodoo goddesses wander the streets of East London casting evil before them, and a tube station exists beneath the capital, but doesn't appear on any map... Featuring Peter Marinker, Adjoa Andoh and Jamie Foreman. The City Speaks was a co-production between BBC Radio Drama and Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network (FLAMIN). The Mystery of Charles Dickens - Simon Callow delivers an outstanding performance of Peter Ackroyd's one-man show portraying both Charles Dickens and many of his best-loved characters. Readings from his novels interweave with Dickens' own words in an incisive, compassionate and unforgettable journey. This collection features an exclusive introduction by Simon Callow. ©2024 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd (P)2024 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd Peter Ackroyd Thu, 25 Jan 2024 08:27:48 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/684185 thebookvoice.com 6:18:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/684185]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Emakume maitagarri haren drama humanoak josten du osoagoa izan nahi duen kontakizunaren ehuna. Eleberria oihartzunez beterik dago. Esan liteke oihartzunen sare batek osatzen duela nobelaren egitura, denbora kronologikoari denbora psikologikoa gailenduz. Ez da garai historiko baten azterketa objektiboa, irakurketa sentikor bat baizik, sufrikariotik eta gozamenetik sorturiko lekukotza bat, hauts bihurtu zirenen errautsekin idatzitakoa.

Hemerotekan-eta berunezko urtetzat ezagutzen diren haietan. Iparraldean, ETAko iheslari errefuxiatuek aterpe bilatzen dute, eta hori baino gehiago ere bai. Hegoaldetik ihesi joandakoez gain, Iparraldeko militanteak ere badira erakundearen sareetan, baita hainbat komando aktibotan ere. Horien artean, luzaroan ibiltari aritutako komando bateko kideak dira eleberriaren protagonista nagusiak. Ez bakarrak, ordea. Protagonista baitira, halaber, komandoaren ekintzek sorturiko biktima ugariak. Protagonista dira sarraskiek eragindako erreakzio askotarikoak, gorrotoa, etsipena, dolua, tristura, sufrimendua… Protagonista dira, halaber, batzuen eta besteen argudio eta kontrargudioak, gezur itxurako egiak, egia itxurako gezurrak. Protagonista da, funtsean, giza kondizioa, bere loriak eta miseriak agerian. Fikzioa baita, maiz, kronika modurik zintzoena.

Title: [Basque] - Haize-lekuak Series: #139 of Narrazioa Author: Amaia Telleria Narrator: Amaia Telleria Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 11 minutes Release date: April 24, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Mikelak supituki utzi beharko du atzean baserriko haurtzaroa, ama alargunak Altsasun entregatzen duen unean. Han, gerra zibilaren itzal eta ilinti bizi-bizien artean, neskame arituko da hamahiru urte apenas dituen neskatoa. Hala egin dute bere aurretik ahizpa zaharrek, hala egingo du berak ere, txandan-txandan etxeko mahaia arintzea tokatzen zaionean, eta, bide batez, akaso gerora baliagarria izango zaion ofizioan trebatzea helburu. Reparaztarren etxean ezagutuko du jende dirudunaren bizimodua, baina baita txanponaren ifrentzua ere. Ez baita giro galtzaileentzat. Menderatu beharko du etxemina, oroitzapenak bridatuz eta bizimodu berrian bidaide egokituko zaizkionei tokia eginez bizitzaren aro berrira irekitzen hasi den bihotz nerabean. Ikasiko du, haragi propioan, alferrik dela haize guztietatik babesean egoten saiatzea, noiznahi heldu daiteke-eta, auskaloko zirrikitutik, menderatu beharreko haize bolada ezezaguna. Beti erne, beti prest dagoena dela haizete bortitzen jostailu baldar izan nahi ez duenaren patua. Heziketa sentimental gogor bezain premiazkoa.

Title: Foxden Acres: A heart-wrenching and unforgettable World War 2 historical novel Series: #1 of Sisters of Wartime England Author: Madalyn Morgan Narrator: Mira Dovreni Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 34 minutes Release date: June 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Bess saw a man carrying a little girl in a pink nightdress run past. The child dropped her teddy bear and began to cry, ‘Daddy, stop!’. But he didn’t hear her above the noise of wailing sirens and collapsing houses. Dazed, Bess watched her old lodgings groan and lurch to the left. Then the stairs she had walked up so many times collapsed, one on top of the other, until there was nothing left but dust. 1939. Bess Dudley's life is filled with possibility. As the daughter of the groom at historic Foxden Hall, she has worked hard to secure a sought-after teaching position in London. Then, on a visit home for the holidays, Bess reconnects with handsome and aristocratic James Foxden, whom she has loved since childhood. There’s a new spark between them and Bess travels to London with James’s card and joy in her heart. The war casts a shadow over Bess's bright future. In London, she’s confronted with the daily threat of terrifying air raids and vicious attacks on her Jewish friends. To make matters worse, Bess's teaching career abruptly ends around the time she discovers James is engaged to the beautiful and wealthy Annabel Hadleigh. Returning to Foxden Acres, Bess dedicates herself to the war effort as a Land Girl, a far cry from the life she had envisioned. It’s back-breaking work, but she’s surprised to find she’s becoming friends with Annabel, despite her enduring love for James. In a world torn apart by violence, Bess is forced to make an impossible decision, all while keeping a dark secret of her own. Is her love for James worth risking everything she’s built for herself from the ashes of her old life? And without James – without Foxden – would she have anywhere left to call home?  A gripping, epic and heartbreaking story about how adversity can change us in ways we never anticipate. Perfect for fans of Mandy Robotham, Glynis Peters and Rachel Wesson. What readers are saying about this book: “A stunning novel. At times I chewed my nails. At other times I cried. But I also felt my heart lift. This book has it all – tension, love and loss all against a backdrop of a bygone era. A great drama in all.

Title: Foxden Acres: A heart-wrenching and unforgettable World War 2 historical novel Series: #1 of Sisters of Wartime England Author: Madalyn Morgan Narrator: Mira Dovreni Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 34 minutes Release date: June 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Bess saw a man carrying a little girl in a pink nightdress run past. The child dropped her teddy bear and began to cry, ‘Daddy, stop!’. But he didn’t hear her above the noise of wailing sirens and collapsing houses. Dazed, Bess watched her old lodgings groan and lurch to the left. Then the stairs she had walked up so many times collapsed, one on top of the other, until there was nothing left but dust. 1939. Bess Dudley's life is filled with possibility. As the daughter of the groom at historic Foxden Hall, she has worked hard to secure a sought-after teaching position in London. Then, on a visit home for the holidays, Bess reconnects with handsome and aristocratic James Foxden, whom she has loved since childhood. There’s a new spark between them and Bess travels to London with James’s card and joy in her heart. The war casts a shadow over Bess's bright future. In London, she’s confronted with the daily threat of terrifying air raids and vicious attacks on her Jewish friends. To make matters worse, Bess's teaching career abruptly ends around the time she discovers James is engaged to the beautiful and wealthy Annabel Hadleigh. Returning to Foxden Acres, Bess dedicates herself to the war effort as a Land Girl, a far cry from the life she had envisioned. It’s back-breaking work, but she’s surprised to find she’s becoming friends with Annabel, despite her enduring love for James. In a world torn apart by violence, Bess is forced to make an impossible decision, all while keeping a dark secret of her own. Is her love for James worth risking everything she’s built for herself from the ashes of her old life? And without James – without Foxden – would she have anywhere left to call home?  A gripping, epic and heartbreaking story about how adversity can change us in ways we never anticipate. Perfect for fans of Mandy Robotham, Glynis Peters and Rachel Wesson. What readers are saying about this book: “A stunning novel. At times I chewed my nails. At other times I cried. But I also felt my heart lift. This book has it all – tension, love and loss all against a backdrop of a bygone era. A great drama in all. I look forward to reading about the other Dudley sisters who, I believe, each have their own story to tell.” Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “This novel made me smile; it also made me cry… it has enough tension and twists to keep the reader interested right to the end.” Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I loved this story and felt involved with the characters from the start.” Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “The plot was a bit of a rollercoaster, and I laughed at times, cried a little, and would recommend this to all fans of historical drama or romance books.” Goodreads reviewer, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I loved this book.

Title: Destiny: A totally gripping and emotional World War 2 historical novel Series: #2 of Sisters of Wartime England Author: Madalyn Morgan Narrator: Mira Dovreni Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 9 minutes Release date: June 12, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Stepping inside, Margot could hardly contain herself. On gold-striped wallpaper hung photographs of theatre stars in gilt frames. Maroon velvet curtains at the doors perfectly matched the seats. This was where she belonged. Only not down here, sitting in the stalls. Her place was up there, on the stage, in the spotlight… London, 1940. As bombs rain down on London, the beautiful, talented Margot Dudley lands a job as an usherette at the Prince Albert Theatre in the West End. It’s not quite her dream of taking centre stage, but at least it gets her closer to it. When an opportunity arises to join the costume department, Margot revels in the glamourous world of silk, taffeta, sequins and pearls, all while harbouring a secret desire to wear the dazzling creations herself.  One night, after being attacked by her abusive Nazi ex-boyfriend, one of the lead dancers of the show begs Margot to take her place on stage. This is her big break, a chance to make her West End debut in front of thousands… But her newfound stardom comes with a price. As Margot basks in the limelight, a dangerous fascist sets his sights on her. Meanwhile, the war is taking its toll – frequent bombings threaten the safety of everyone she holds dear. Immersed in a world of bright lights and deception, Margot doesn’t realise she’s at risk of being torn apart from her family, friends and the man she loves, until it is too late… A gripping and utterly captivating tale of glitz and glamour, ambition and heartbreaking loss, set within the perilous world of the London Blitz.  What readers are saying about this book: “Totally absorbing!

Title: Good As Gold Author: Justin Smith Narrator: Justin Smith Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 1 minute Release date: August 22, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Some stories are too good to be true . In the year 1861, there were three campfires burning outside the gold mining town of Mull Creek, in the British colony of Victoria. At the first is Jesus Whitetree, an escaped orphan with no knowledge of his new world, not even his age or real name. He only knows he wants to find gold. Gold makes everything good. At the second fire is the Jack Pink Gang. Jack is a little-known bushranger who is a violent criminal by day and a nervous wreck by night. His mother - a notorious criminal known throughout the colony as Mother Pink - engages the services of a bush poet to get Jack's name in the newspapers and make him feared and famous. And at the third fire is Mary, a young Aboriginal girl, and police constable Harry Logan. Harry has a good heart, but he also has Mary in chains. Despite her hard life and current circumstances, Mary remains smart, cheeky and troublesome to the struggling policeman. With the announcement of the first Melbourne Cup, all three parties descend upon Melbourne town. And the thrilling horserace offers something different for each of them - a new beginning, a chance to be written into history, or a prize bigger than they could imagine. But only one can take the gold. GOOD AS GOLD is a reimagining of the very first 'race that stops a nation', and a heartwarming story about triumph and the things that mean more than gold.

Title: The Bronze Crown Author: Stefano Vignaroli Narrator: Luis Cruz Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 34 minutes Release date: April 24, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Year 2018: from the icon of the Palace of the Lordship of Jesi the bronze crown to symbolize the royalty of the city, always above the rampant lion, disappears . A new enigma to be solved for the scholar Lucia Balleani who, having finally met the love in the young archaeologist Andrea Franciolini, she has to rediscover with him some unknown aspects of the life of her ancestor Lucia Baldeschi. So let's return, together with our two heroes, back in time to half a millennium, to discover how people lived among the alleys, squares and palaces of a beautiful city in the Marche region, famous in the world, then as now, for being the birthplace of Emperor Frederick the II. ”But neither one of them, looking up over the portal and dwelling on the rampant lion's shrine, could escape a detail, which brought an exclamation to their mouths, almost in unison, as if they were one person: ”The crown!”.Bernardino, the printer, is lying in desperate conditions in a room at Santa Lucia hospital. Cardinal Baldeschi died suddenly and left the city government vacant. Will young Lucia Baldeschi finally take the reins of government and prevent Jesi from falling into the hands of enemies who have always been pressing at his doors? Certainly, one cannot leave the government in the hands of four corrupt nobles or, worse, entrust it to the papal legate sent by the Pope. But Lucia is a woman, and it's not easy to take on roles of power, traditionally handed down to men. And Andrea, her love, what happened to her, after escaping the scaffold and disappearing in the wake of the Mancino? Will he return to the scene to help his beloved? Or will controversial events lead him to other shores? And we also remember the parallel story, that of the scholar Lucia Balleani, our contemporary, who perhaps has finally met the love of hes life, the one who will take her by hand to discover with the reader new arcane secrets. Love and death, esotericism and logic, good and evil. These are just some of the ingredients that give rhythm to this new investigation, focused on the mysterious disappearance of the bronze crown, once placed above the rampant lion of the main palace of Jesi, that of the Signoria. Once again, the past is intertwined with the present, through the parallel vicissitudes of the protagonists of the present day and their namesake ancestors. A comely lady and haughty regent of the Aesina Republic, Lucia Baldeschi is divided between the obligations of the reason of state and love for the fugitive knight, the brave leader Andrea Franciolini. Between history and legend, the action ranges from the severe buildings and dark secret passages of an underground Jesi, to the open countryside of its Contado, populated by shepherds and monks during the day and animated by magical rites during moonlight. Then there are the intrigues of the palace, the feuds between the lords and the battles; those between the armies and against the pirates, from Urbino to Senigallia, up to some of the most suggestive gorges of the Apennines. The sixteenth century, characterized by light and shadow, is divided between the cult of reason and the practice of esotericism, of which the characters of the novel are the faithful mirror. In their demeanour, as well as in their merits and defects. In their footsteps, among sensational discoveries and brilliant intuitions, the quarrelsome lovers, Lucia and Andrea, from the Jesi of the twenty-first century will come to the truth in the sign of a timeless love.

Title: The War Prayer (Unabridged) Author: Mark Twain Narrator: John Greenman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 9 minutes Release date: May 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The War Prayer by Mark Twain a short story or prose poem by Mark Twain, is a scathing indictment of war, and particularly of blind patriotic and religious fervor as motivations for war. The structure of the work is simple: an unnamed country goes to war, and patriotic citizens attend a church service for soldiers who have been called up. The people call upon God to grant them victory and protect their troops. Suddenly, an 'aged stranger' appears and announces that he is God's messenger. He explains to them that he is there to speak aloud the second part of their prayer for victory, the part which they have implicitly wished for but have not spoken aloud themselves: the prayer for the suffering and destruction of their enemies. What follows is a grisly depiction of hardships inflicted on war-torn nations by their conquerors. The story ends with the man being ignored. History: 'The War Prayer' was written in 1905, and is believed to be a response to both the Spanish-American War and the subsequent Philippine-American War. It was left unpublished by Mark Twain at his death in April 1910, largely due to pressure from his family, who feared that the story would be considered sacrilegious. Twain's publisher and other friends also discouraged him from publishing it. According to one account, his illustrator Dan Beard asked him if he would publish it anyway, and Twain replied, 'No, I have told the whole truth in that, and only dead men can tell the truth in this world. It can be published after I am dead.' Mindful of public reaction, he considered that he had a family to support and did not want to be seen as a lunatic or fanatic.

Title: The War Prayer (Unabridged) Author: Mark Twain Narrator: John Greenman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 9 minutes Release date: May 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The War Prayer by Mark Twain a short story or prose poem by Mark Twain, is a scathing indictment of war, and particularly of blind patriotic and religious fervor as motivations for war. The structure of the work is simple: an unnamed country goes to war, and patriotic citizens attend a church service for soldiers who have been called up. The people call upon God to grant them victory and protect their troops. Suddenly, an 'aged stranger' appears and announces that he is God's messenger. He explains to them that he is there to speak aloud the second part of their prayer for victory, the part which they have implicitly wished for but have not spoken aloud themselves: the prayer for the suffering and destruction of their enemies. What follows is a grisly depiction of hardships inflicted on war-torn nations by their conquerors. The story ends with the man being ignored. History: 'The War Prayer' was written in 1905, and is believed to be a response to both the Spanish-American War and the subsequent Philippine-American War. It was left unpublished by Mark Twain at his death in April 1910, largely due to pressure from his family, who feared that the story would be considered sacrilegious. Twain's publisher and other friends also discouraged him from publishing it. According to one account, his illustrator Dan Beard asked him if he would publish it anyway, and Twain replied, 'No, I have told the whole truth in that, and only dead men can tell the truth in this world. It can be published after I am dead.' Mindful of public reaction, he considered that he had a family to support and did not want to be seen as a lunatic or fanatic.

Title: The Kiss (Unabridged) Author: Kate Chopin Narrator: Carolyn Frances Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 7 minutes Release date: May 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The Kiss by Kate Chopin Audiobook This short story is about a girl, Nathalie who has an affair with her brother's friend, Mr. Harvy and at the same time she is with a wealthly man, Mr. Brantain who is 'rather insignificant and unattractive'. One day when Nathalie and Mr. Brantain are together, Mr. Harvy comes and kisses her. Mr. Brantain leaves her place and she gets angry with Mr. Harvy for kissing her in front of him. After the day, she convinces Mr. Brantain with a lie that that was nothing but the fact Mr. Harvy, being a close friend of her brother, considers her a sibling. That's why he did so. He accepts this (that's pretty foolish of him in my opinion). And on their wedding, he gives permission to Mr. Harvy to keep his sibling-like relationship with Nathalie and he may kisses her. When Mr. Harvy approaches Nathalie and tells her about it and also says he will not do that because he has decided to stop kissing women and considers it 'dangerous'. At that moment, she realises she can't have everything in life. She gets wealth but loses the romantic love of Mr. Harvy. Kate Chopin was an American novelist and short-story writer best known for her startling 1899 novel, The Awakening. Born in St. Louis, she moved to New Orleans after marrying Oscar Chopin in 1870. Less than a decade later Oscar's cotton business fell on hard times and they moved to his family's plantation in the Natchitoches Parish of northwestern Louisiana. Oscar died in 1882 and Kate was suddenly a young widow with six children. She turned to writing and published her first poem in 1889. The Awakening, considered Chopin's masterpiece, was subject to harsh criticism at the time for its frank approach to sexual themes. It was rediscovered in the 1960s and has since become a standard of American literature, appreciated for its sophistication and artistry. Chopin's short stories of Cajun and Creole life are collected in Bayou Folk (1894) and A Night in Acadie (1897), and include 'Desiree's Baby,' 'The Story of an Hour' and 'The Storm.'

Title: Rip Van Winkle (Unabridged) Author: Washington Irving Narrator: Weir Done30 Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 37 minutes Release date: May 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving Audiobook is a short story by the American author Washington Irving, first published in 1819. It follows a Dutch-American villager in colonial America named Rip Van Winkle who meets mysterious Dutchmen, imbibes their liquor and falls asleep in the Catskill Mountains. He awakes 20 years later to a very changed world, having missed the American Revolution. Plot: Rip Van Winkle, a Dutch-American man with a habit of avoiding useful work, lives in a village at the foot of New York's Catskill Mountains in the years before the American Revolution. One autumn day, he goes squirrel hunting in the mountains with his dog Wolf to escape his wife's nagging. As evening falls, he hears a voice calling his name and finds a man dressed in antiquated Dutch clothing and carrying a keg. Rip helps the man carry his burden to a cleft in the rocks from which thunderous noises are emanating; the source proves to be a group of ornately dressed and bearded men playing nine-pins. Not asking who these men are or how they know his name, Rip joins them in drinking from the keg he has helped carry and soon becomes so intoxicated that he falls asleep. Rip awakens on a sunny morning, at the spot where he first saw the keg-carrier, and finds that many drastic changes have occurred; his beard is a foot long and has turned gray, his musket is badly deteriorated, and Wolf is nowhere to be found. Returning to his village, he discovers it to be larger than he remembers and filled with people in unfamiliar clothing, none of whom recognize him. When asked how he voted in the election that has just been held, he declares himself a loyal subject of King George III, unaware that the American Revolution has taken place in his absence. He learns that many of his old friends were either killed in the war or have left the village, and is disturbed to find a young man who shares his name, mannerisms, and younger appearance. A young woman states that her father is Rip Van Winkle, who has been missing for 20 years, and an old woman recognizes him as Rip. The young woman and the young Rip are his children, and the former has named her infant son after him as well.

Title: [Spanish] - Los años del silencio Author: álvaro Arbina Narrator: Benjamin Figueres Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 48 minutes Release date: April 28, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: LA HISTORIA QUE SE RELATA EN ESTE LIBRO ESTÁ INSPIRADA EN HECHOS REALES. SUCEDIÓ EN 1936, EN UN PEQUEÑO PUEBLO EN EL CORAZÓN DEL PAÍS DEL BIDASOA. En una oscura noche de agosto, Josefa Goñi Sagardía, una enigmática mujer embarazada de siete meses, desapareció de la faz de la tierra con sus seis hijos menores de edad. En un principio nadie en el pueblo escuchó nada, nadie sabía nada. Pero los secretos y los fantasmas empezaron a instalarse dentro de las casas. Al amanecer del día siguiente, el pueblo despertó sumido en un silencio que se demoró más tiempo del que nadie hubiera imaginado. Instintos soterrados que despiertan con la guerra. Una mujer y su envidia, las supersticiones de un cura, un guardia civil empujado por el miedo, la tentación de un padre de familia, un joven reprimido y un pueblo asustado que guarda silencio. Rumores agrandados. Ofensas y sentimientos insignificantes, cotidianos, que se enredan entre sí hasta deformarse y convertirse en monstruos. 'La narrativa exquisita. Yo lo recomiendo muchísimo. A mí me ha encantado, aunque es drama te engancha y disfrutas de la lectura. Es muy muy buen libro'.

Title: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge (Unabridged) Author: Ambrose Bierce Narrator: Elise Sauer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 25 minutes Release date: May 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge by Ambrose Bierce (1890) is a short story by the American writer and Civil War veteran Ambrose Bierce. Described as 'one of the most famous and frequently anthologized stories in American literature', it was originally published by The San Francisco Examiner on July 13, 1890, and was first collected in Bierce's book Tales of Soldiers and Civilians (1891). The story, which is set during the American Civil War, is known for its irregular time sequence and twist ending. Bierce's abandonment of strict linear narration in favor of the internal mind of the protagonist is an early example of the stream of consciousness narrative mode. Plot: Peyton Farquhar, a civilian who is also a wealthy planter and slave owner, is being prepared for execution by hanging from an Alabama railroad bridge during the American Civil War. Six military men and a company of infantrymen are present, guarding the bridge and carrying out the sentence. Farquhar thinks of his wife and children and is then distracted by a noise that, to him, sounds like an unbearably loud clanging; it is actually the ticking of his watch. He considers the possibility of jumping off the bridge and swimming to safety if he can free his tied hands, but the soldiers drop him from the bridge before he can act on the idea. In a flashback, Farquhar and his wife are relaxing at home one evening when a soldier dressed in Confederate gray rides up to the gate. Farquhar, a supporter of the Confederacy, learns from him that Union troops have seized the Owl Creek railroad bridge and repaired it. The soldier suggests that Farquhar might be able to burn the bridge down if he can slip past its guards. He then leaves, but doubles back after nightfall to return north the way he came. The soldier is actually a disguised Union scout who has lured Farquhar into a trap, as any civilian caught interfering with the railroads will be hanged. The story returns to the present, and the rope around Farquhar's neck breaks when he falls from the bridge into the creek. He frees his hands, pulls the noose away, and rises to the surface to begin his escape. His senses now greatly sharpened, he dives and swims downstream to avoid rifle and cannon fire. Once he is out of range, he leaves the creek to begin the journey to his home, 30 miles (48 km) away. Farquhar walks all day long through a seemingly endless forest, and that night he begins to hallucinate, seeing strange constellations and hearing whispered voices in an unknown language. He travels on, urged by the thought of his wife and children despite the pains caused by his ordeal. The next morning, after having apparently fallen asleep while walking, he finds himself at the gate to his plantation.

Six military men and a company of infantrymen are present, guarding the bridge and carrying out the sentence. Farquhar thinks of his wife and children and is then distracted by a noise that, to him, sounds like an unbearably loud clanging; it is actually the ticking of his watch. He considers the possibility of jumping off the bridge and swimming to safety if he can free his tied hands, but the soldiers drop him from the bridge before he can act on the idea. In a flashback, Farquhar and his wife are relaxing at home one evening when a soldier dressed in Confederate gray rides up to the gate. Farquhar, a supporter of the Confederacy, learns from him that Union troops have seized the Owl Creek railroad bridge and repaired it. The soldier suggests that Farquhar might be able to burn the bridge down if he can slip past its guards. He then leaves, but doubles back after nightfall to return north the way he came. The soldier is actually a disguised Union scout who has lured Farquhar into a trap, as any civilian caught interfering with the railroads will be hanged. The story returns to the present, and the rope around Farquhar's neck breaks when he falls from the bridge into the creek. He frees his hands, pulls the noose away, and rises to the surface to begin his escape. His senses now greatly sharpened, he dives and swims downstream to avoid rifle and cannon fire. Once he is out of range, he leaves the creek to begin the journey to his home, 30 miles (48 km) away. Farquhar walks all day long through a seemingly endless forest, and that night he begins to hallucinate, seeing strange constellations and hearing whispered voices in an unknown language. He travels on, urged by the thought of his wife and children despite the pains caused by his ordeal. The next morning, after having apparently fallen asleep while walking, he finds himself at the gate to his plantation.

Title: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge (Unabridged) Author: Ambrose Bierce Narrator: Elise Sauer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 0 hours 25 minutes Release date: May 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge by Ambrose Bierce (1890) is a short story by the American writer and Civil War veteran Ambrose Bierce. Described as 'one of the most famous and frequently anthologized stories in American literature', it was originally published by The San Francisco Examiner on July 13, 1890, and was first collected in Bierce's book Tales of Soldiers and Civilians (1891). The story, which is set during the American Civil War, is known for its irregular time sequence and twist ending. Bierce's abandonment of strict linear narration in favor of the internal mind of the protagonist is an early example of the stream of consciousness narrative mode.

Title: Pemulwuy Author: Eric Willmot Narrator: Tamala Shelton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 36 minutes Release date: April 23, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: This is the story of one of Australia's first true heroes Pemulwuy. A proud and feared Aboriginal warrior Pemulwuy leads an uncompromising twelve-year war against British colonial oppression and makes the supreme sacrifice in order to guide his people to safety. Most histories of Australia start with the First Fleet and the hard times the colonists had with the climate and unruly convicts. Very few mention what really happened or the blood that was spilled in the wars never spoken of. Pemulwuy a Bidjigal man unites the neighbouring peoples runaway convicts bushrangers and an escaped African known as Black Caesar in a guerilla war that pushes the invading English to the brink. This novel was conceived out of Pemulwuy's legend and the historical events between 1788 and 1802. It is a story that all Australians should know. 'This is more than a novel, more than a story, it is the Big Bang: where the idea of Australia starts.'

He didn’t smoke, chew, cuss, or even carry a gun. Unlike his competitors, he learned how to herd cows on a farm back in England—and how to handle cowboys in bareknuckle prizefights. But his skills and know-how were really put to the test when he accepts a bet he might live to regret: lead a cattle drive from Texas to New York City. Not one to back down on a dare, Ponting assembles the motliest crew of cowboys ever seen—Texans, Englishmen, Mexicans, Freemen, Cherokee—and charts a course through the unfriendliest country to move seven hundred head of cattle, never easy in the best of times. Along the way, they’ll cross railroads and rustlers, hucksters and hustlers, with detours and dead ends aplenty. But if they succeed, the team will make more than just a whole lot of money. They will make history. Inspired by the real-life adventures of legendary cattleman Tom Candy Ponting, Longhorns East takes listeners on an unforgettable journey as big and bold as America itself.

Title: [Spanish] - M. - Los últimos días de Europa Author: Antonio Scurati Narrator: Raúl Rojo, Javier Portugués (portu) Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 9 minutes Release date: April 27, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: LOS ÚLTIMOS DÍAS DE EUROPA EL PRINCIPIO DEL FIN: HITLER, LAS LEYES RACIALES, LA GUERRA. LA GRAN NOVELA DE NUESTRO TIEMPO LLEGA A SUS AÑOS CRUCIALES Más de medio millón de ejemplares vendidos de los dos primeros volúmenes, publicados en 40 países «Scurati revisa la historia. Como Yourcenar, Gore Vidal, Sebald, Echenoz o Cercas». Javier Aparicio Maydeu, El País Con febril precisión, Antonio Scurati continúa su «novela total» reconstruyendo el delirio de un Mussolini ilusionado con poder influir en las decisiones del Führer, más solo que nunca y por fin consciente de la debilidad italiana cuando declara que ha llegado «la hora de las decisiones irrevocables». Acabada la guerra civil española, el continente se hunde en un nuevo conflicto internacional apenas veinte años después del fin del anterior. Estos son los últimos días de Europa: la culminación del autoengaño de una Italia fascista doblegada ante la infamia de las leyes raciales y el pacto con la Alemania nazi. La crítica ha dicho: «Una novela documental escrita de nuevo con una potencia narrativa arrolladora y absorbente». Alberto Ojeda, El Cultural «Apasionante y monumental. [...] Scurati, igual que sucede con Éric Vuillard, no teme enfrentarse a la historia más reciente y, siempre cuando los lectores lo consideren una novela sobre la historia y no un libro de historia, el relato se vuelve legible, agradable e induce, además, a una necesaria reflexión acerca de nuestra pasado que no deja de llamar a la puerta». Luis M. Alonso, El Periódico - Abril «Scurati arma la novela con elegancia, precisión y rigor histórico, narrando paso a paso el camino hacia la carnicería humana a la que se vio abocada la Italia fascista, una Italia que no tenía ni armamento ni soldados adiestrados, ni provisiones, ni nada para emprender guerra alguna». Javier Feito Blanco, Zenda «Resulta evidente que Antonio Scurati ha dado con la tecla para explicar de un modo ameno, y a la vez riguroso, la Historia». Miguel Ángel Villena, elDiario «Lo que nos narra pertenece al ayer, pero podría escribir el mañana». Rafael Narbona, El Cultural «Formidable e impresionante. [...] Un ejemplo brillante del poder de la literatura y de la capacidad para articular el tiempo histórico y el tiempo humano». Le Monde «En la gigantesca reconstrucción que Antonio Scurati está haciendo de Mussolini y de su régimen, este volumen me ha parecido el más apasionante. [...] Su doble registro [...] le da a la lectura una intensidad inaudita». Corrado Augias, Il Venerdì di Repubblica «Me han gustado muchísimo las novelas de Antonio Scurati sobre Mussolini». Pierre Lemaitre «Una lección histórica de antifascismo disfrazada de novela». The New York Times «Aquí queda revelado el ADN del fascismo». La Repubblica «Tras narrar el ascenso de Mussolini con M1 y los años del régimen con M2, Scurati aborda ahora el corazón de las tinieblas de la Italia fascista».

Title: [German] - Das Licht im Rücken (Ungekürzte Lesung) Author: Sandra Lüpkes Narrator: Claudia Michelsen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 32 minutes Release date: May 16, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Eine Erfindung erobert die Welt - und bestimmt das Schicksal zweier Familien, die bereit sind, alles zu riskieren Wetzlar, Optische Werke, Konstruktionsabteilung, 1914: Dem Tüftler Oskar Barnack gelingt der Durchbruch. Anstatt weiterhin mit einer kiloschweren Glasplattenkamera auf Foto-Safari zu gehen, hat der Feinmechaniker einen handlichen Apparat entwickelt, der in eine Jackentasche passt. Ernst Leitz, der Sohn des Werkgründers, erkennt das Potenzial - und treibt die Produktion der Leica gegen alle Widerstände voran. Die nächste Generation steht schon in den Startlöchern: Tochter Elsie hat das Zeug, die Firma zu übernehmen, aber die Brüder werden ihr vorgezogen. Als die Enteignung der Leitz-Werke durch die Nazis droht, bietet Elsie dem Unrechtssystem die Stirn - und gerät in die Fänge der Gestapo. Auch die Geschwister Dana und Milan stehen vor dem Nichts: Als Kinder eines jüdischen Ladenbesitzers ist ihnen ein Studium verwehrt, das von der Familie geführte 'Haus der Präsente' wird geplündert. Doch die inzwischen weltberühmte Leica öffnet ihnen neue Möglichkeiten ... Ein groß angelegter Gesellschafts- und Familienroman über die Revolution der Fotografie im 20. Jahrhundert - hervorragend recherchiert und packend erzählt.

Title: Lucien & Olivia Author: Andre Narbonne Narrator: Steve Baker Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 28 minutes Release date: April 28, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Lucien and Olivia by André Narbonne, author of Twelve Miles to Midnight, is a comic statement on the beautiful waywardness of life. Built on scenes of discovery and error, the novel satirizes the transactional view of human relations that has elbowed its way into our lives by way of contemporary political discourse. The novel is set in the 1980s before cell phones, personal computers, and Facebook “likes.” Lucien is a marine engineer on a Canadian tanker. While on one-month leave in Halifax, he meets Olivia, a brilliant philosophy student at Dalhousie University, who takes an immediate dislike to him. What begins as mutual antipathy changes when they discover how compatible their oddities are. Charged by Olivia not to say he loves her, Lucien returns to sea and to a job characterized by its plodding predictability. Here he discovers that not everything in his life is foreseeable, including his feelings for Olivia. This is a fascinating and different work of fiction.

Title: When the Elephants Dance: A Novel Author: Tess Uriza Holthe Narrator: Irene Adlaw Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 17 minutes Release date: April 1, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: “Papa explains the war like this: ‘When the elephants dance, the chickens must be careful.’ The great beasts, as they circle one another, shaking the trees and trumpeting loudly, are the Amerikanos and the Japanese as they fight. And our Philippine Islands? We are the small chickens.”Once in a great while comes a storyteller who can illuminate worlds large and small, magical and true to life. When the Elephants Dance   introduces us to the incandescent voice of Tess Uriza Holthe, who sets her remarkable first novel in the waning days of World War II, as the Japanese and the Americans engage in a fierce battle for possession of the Philippine Islands. The Karangalan family and their neighbors huddle for survival in the cellar of a house a few miles from Manila. Outside the safety of their little refuge the war rages on—fiery bombs torch the beautiful Filipino countryside, Japanese soldiers round up and interrogate innocent people, and from the hills guerillas wage a desperate campaign against the enemy. Inside the cellar, these men, women, and children put their hopes and dreams on hold as they wait out the war, only emerging to look for food, water, and medicine.Through the eyes of three narrators, thirteen-year-old Alejandro Karangalan, his spirited older sister Isabelle, and Domingo, a passionate guerilla commander, we see how ordinary people must learn to live in the midst of extraordinary uncertainty, how they must find hope for survival where none seems to exist. They find this hope in the dramatic history of the Philippine Islands and the passion and bravery of its people. Crowded together in the cellar, the Karangalans and their friends and neighbors tell magical stories to one another based on Filipino myth and legend to fuel their courage, pass the time, and teach important lessons. The group is held spellbound by these stories, which feature a dazzling array of ghosts, witches, supernatural creatures, and courageous Filipinos who changed the course of history with their actions. These profoundly moving stories transport the listeners from the chaos of the war around them and give them new resolve to fight on.With When the Elephants Dance Holthe has not only written a gripping narrative of how Alejandro, Isabelle, Domingo and their community fight for survival, but a loving tribute to the magical realism that infuses Filipino culture. The stories shared by her characters are based on the same tales handed down to Holthe from her Filipino father and lola, her grandmother. This stunning debut novel is the first to celebrate in such richness and depth the spirit of the Filipino people and their fascinating story and marks the introduction of a talented new author who will join the ranks of writers such as Arundhati Roy, Manil Suri, and Amy Tan.

Title: [Spanish] - Un punto azul en el Mediterráneo Author: Eva Espinet Narrator: Paola Navalón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 10 minutes Release date: April 20, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: «Aquella vida que traté de ocultar hoy resuena como un murmullo en mi interior». Un relato que combina un secreto oculto, un amor imposible y un periplo trágico entre guerras. En el Palamós (Girona) de 1995, Marina se reencuentra sesenta años después con un amor de adolescencia, Hans, un nazi que luchó en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Una devastadora revelación pone a prueba el valor de los protagonistas en el momento más decisivo de sus vidas. Esta es una historia que desafía el poder de la memoria y la fuerza de los sentimientos. Una historia de transformación, de aprendizaje, de amores imposibles, de traiciones, de búsqueda del perdón, de héroes y heroínas que perdieron sus propias guerras, pero que lograron sobrevivir para volver a amar. Dos generaciones transitan por un tiempo entre guerras para exorcizar los fantasmas del pasado y cerrar viejas heridas. Un viaje transformador en busca de una verdad ineludible: nadie puede esconderse de sí mismo para siempre. Una relación generacional entre abuela y nieta que crece y se fortalece a medida que juntas van curando las heridas. Eva Espinet ha creado un relato inolvidable. Ha construido una historia de amor emocionante que invita a reflexionar sobre la importancia de ser uno mismo; sobre la angustia de dejarse arrastrar por los acontecimientos y el valor intrínseco de mirar de frente al dolor, comprenderlo y perdonar. Paloma Insa Rico, escritora, filósofa y periodista Una reflexión sobre la tentación que todos tenemos de juzgar con precipitación y severidad desde el desconocimiento y sobre la dificultad de ser justo al hacerlo; sobre la dicotomía entre la cobardía y la valentía en la que todos los seres oscilamos; sobre la responsabilidad individual y la libertad de elección en los momentos cruciales de la vida.

Title: Behind You Is the Sea: A Novel Author: Susan Muaddi Darraj Narrator: Ali Nasser, Rasha Zamamiri Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 31 minutes Release date: January 16, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 PEN/FAULKNER AWARD ''A beautiful portrait of a family reaching for their dreams while holding on to their roots.''—Publishers Weekly ''Each chapter reads like a small masterpiece.''—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) An exciting debut novel that gives voice to the diverse residents of a Palestinian American community in Baltimore—from young activists in conflict with their traditional parents to the poor who clean for the rich—lives which intersect across divides of class, generation, and religion. Funny and touching, Behind You Is the Sea brings us into the homes and lives of three main families—the Baladis, the Salamehs, and the Ammars—Palestinian immigrants who’ve all found a different welcome in America. Their various fates and struggles cause their community dynamic to sizzle and sometimes explode: The wealthy Ammar family employs young Maysoon Baladi, whose own family struggles financially, to clean up after their spoiled teenagers. Meanwhile, Marcus Salameh confronts his father in an effort to protect his younger sister for “dishonoring” their name. Only a trip to Palestine, where Marcus experiences an unexpected and dramatic transformation, can bridge this seemingly unbridgeable divide between the two generations. Behind You Is the Sea faces stereotypes about Palestinian culture head-on and, shifting perspectives to weave a complex social fabric replete with weddings, funerals, broken hearts, and devastating secrets.

Funny and touching, Behind You Is the Sea brings us into the homes and lives of three main families—the Baladis, the Salamehs, and the Ammars—Palestinian immigrants who’ve all found a different welcome in America. Their various fates and struggles cause their community dynamic to sizzle and sometimes explode: The wealthy Ammar family employs young Maysoon Baladi, whose own family struggles financially, to clean up after their spoiled teenagers. Meanwhile, Marcus Salameh confronts his father in an effort to protect his younger sister for “dishonoring” their name.

Title: Shooting Iron Series: #2 of Devil's Gulch Author: J.A. Johnstone, William W. Johnstone Narrator: A.W. Miller Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 10 minutes Release date: October 24, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: The thundering new adventure starring traveling gunslinger John Holt, a lawman-for-hire on a mission to serve justice across the untamed Colorado territories—one bullet at a time. One of the deadliest, crime-infested towns in Colorado Territory, Devil's Gulch needed more than a sheriff. They needed a gunslinger. So they pinned a badge on hardcase lawman John Holt. And the rest is history. As the town's new sheriff, John Holt achieved the impossible: He drove the devil out of Devil's Gulch. Corrupt, cutthroat rancher Joe Mullen—who ruled the land with an iron fist—is finally behind bars, thanks to Sheriff Holt. But the tables are turned when Mullen manages to overturn his prison wagon and make his escape—with an army of prisoners, outlaws, and lowlifes to do his bidding. It doesn't take long for the streets of Devil's Gulch to run red with blood. Again. Or for Holt to be marked for death. Again. But this time, the sheriff's up against more than a hundred men—all of them gunning for him—and his only allies are an all-too-young deputy, an all-too-angry farmer, and a wayward wagon cook. With odds this bad, Holt is sure of only one thing: when you shoot at the devil, it's best not to miss. J.A. Johnstone, William W.

Title: [Spanish] - Guerrero Author: José ángel Mañas Narrator: óscar Piñero Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 50 minutes Release date: June 4, 2024 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: En el año 1512, un navío español procedente de la primera colonia asentada en Tierra Firme regresa a la isla La Española. Tras naufragar en la costa jamaicana, veinte supervivientes, entre hombres y mujeres, se ven arrastrados por una tormenta hasta la península de Yucatán, donde son capturados por la población autóctona maya. De todos ellos, al cabo de casi una década, cuando aparezca en la región la primera expedición de Hernán Cortés, solo seguirán con vida el seminarista Jerónimo Aguilar, que se incorporará a la expedición como traductor, y Gonzalo Guerrero, el cual teniendo ya hijos y habiéndose casado con la princesa Za´asil, permanecerá en su nuevo entorno y se identificará con él hasta el punto de luchar, más tarde, contra los propios españoles. ¿Quién era este hombre al que sus compatriotas llamaron 'el renegado'? ¿Cómo logró integrarse en el enigmático universo de los mayas? ¿Cómo vivió esa transformación? Después de habernos deleitados con Conquistadores de lo imposible, una de las mejores novelas jamás escritas sobre la conquista de América, José Ángel Mañas abunda de nuevo en la época moderna y recrea, con este relato absolutamente real, la que quizá sea la peripecia vital más singular de toda la historia hispanoamericana.

Title: [German] - Schicksalszeit - Schicksals-Trilogie, Folge 1 (ungekürzt) Author: Katja Maybach Narrator: Demet Fey Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 57 minutes Release date: April 28, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Elegant, opulent, authentisch: Der erste Teil von Katja Maybachs großer historischer Familiengeschichte spielt in einem mondänen Kurort am Vorabend des 1. Weltkriegs. Leicht und sommerlich-träge ziehen 1914 die Tage in einem eleganten Kurort nahe der deutsch-französischen Grenze vorüber: Selbst am Vorabend des 1. Weltkriegs will niemand so recht wahrhaben, was sich in Europa zusammenbraut - auch nicht die Geschwister Franz, Luise und Victoria Laverne, die einmal das mondäne Grandhotel Deutscher Kaiser erben werden. Luise ist gerade aus Paris zurückgekehrt und hofft nach einer skandalösen Mesalliance auf die Aussöhnung mit ihrem strengen Vater. Die 16-jährige Victoria fühlt sich zu einem russischen Musikstudenten hingezogen, dessen Traurigkeit sie tief berührt. Und Franz hat die angehende Fotografin Clara kennengelernt, für ihn die Frau seines Lebens. Doch während Musik, Liebeleien und die Eleganz des Kurorts das Leben der Lavernes bestimmen, ziehen in den deutschen Städten junge Männer mit Gesang und unter dem Jubel der Bevölkerung selbstbewusst und siegessicher an die Front. Der Beginn des 1. Weltkriegs ... Für Franz, Luise und Victoria wird nach diesem 1. August 1914 nichts mehr so sein, wie es war. Katja Maybachs historische Familiensaga um drei unzertrennliche Geschwister Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts ist in Teilen inspiriert vom Schicksal ihres Großonkels.

Title: [German] - Pompeji oder Die fünf Reden des Jowna (Ungekürzte Lesung) Author: Eugen Ruge Narrator: Ulrich Noethen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 12 minutes Release date: May 12, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Auf dem Monte Somma oberhalb der mondänen, niedergehenden Stadt Pompeji werden tote Vögel gefunden. Während einer Versammlung von Vogelschützern hat der Einwanderer Jowna eine Eingebung: Wenn der Vulkan grollt, soll man das Weite suchen. Ohne Schulbildung, Geld und Einfluss gelingt es ihm, sich an die Spitze einer Aussteigerbewegung zu setzen. Bald fürchtet das Stadtoberhaupt Fabius Rufus, die Vulkangerüchte könnten Pompeji schaden. Als sich sogar der frühere Sklave Polybius dafür interessiert, schaltet sich Rufus' Frau Livia ein, und Jownas Eingebung verkehrt sich in ihr Gegenteil. Das Pompeji von Eugen Ruge ist eine Erfindung, die auf historischer Wahrheit beruht: ein ferner Spiegel, in dem wir uns erstaunt wiedererkennen.

Title: [Spanish] - La mensajera de París Author: Meg Waite Clayton Narrator: Ana Conca Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 21 minutes Release date: April 15, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: La autora de El último tren a la libertad, best seller de The New York Times, visita de nuevo los oscuros primeros días de la ocupación alemana en Francia en esta evocadora novela que gira en torno a una joven heredera norteamericana que ayuda a artistas perseguidos por los nazis a escapar de una Europa rota por la guerra. Nanée, bella y adinerada, nació con espíritu aventurero. Para ella, aprender a volar equivale a libertad. Cuando los tanques alemanes cruzan la frontera y llegan a París, esta mujer, con un perro adorable y un corazón generoso, se suma a la Resistencia. Conocida como «la mensajera» porque parte de su trabajo consiste en pasar información a gente que vive escondida, Naneé utiliza sus encantos y sus habilidades para dar cobijo a los perseguidos y conducirlos hasta un lugar seguro. El fotógrafo Edouard Moss ha huido de Alemania con su hija pequeña y acaba recluido en un campo de trabajo francés. Su vida colisiona con la de Nanée en este arrebatador relato de amor y peligro que se desarrolla con el telón de fondo de un mundo en llamas. Inspirada en la vida real de Mary Jayne Gold, una rica heredera de Chicago que trabajó con el periodista norteamericano Varian Fry para sacar a escondidas de Francia a artistas e intelectuales, La mensajera de París es la cautivadora historia de una mujer indomable cuya fuerza, valentía y amor fueron un rayo de esperanza en tiempos de terror. «Clayton describe con experiencia el papel que desempeñó una valiente norteamericana en la resistencia francesa durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. […] La prosa lírica de Clayton invita a pensar e insufla vida a sus personajes. Su admirable retrato de una mujer compleja destaca con creces por encima de la mayoría de la ficción contemporánea de la Segunda Guerra Mundial». PUBLISHERS WEEKLY «Una potente y evocadora historia de amor cargada de heroísmo e intriga. La película Casablanca si Rick se hubiera dedicado al mundo del arte…». SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE «Un relato arrebatador de perseverancia y coraje con el telón de fondo de la Europa de la época nazi, La mensajera de París es ficción histórica de la mejor calidad: una historia compleja e intrigante que subraya un momento poco conocido del pasado y resuena con fuerza en el presente, recordándonos que la intolerancia solo podrá desaparecer cuando la gente esté dispuesta a defender sus ideas». CHRISTINA BAKER KLINE, AUTORA DE EL TREN DE LOS HUÉRFANOS, BEST SELLER DE THE NEW YORK TIMES «Muy admirada por sus anteriores novelas sobre la Segunda Guerra Mundial, Meg Waite Clayton regresa triunfante con La mensajera de París, una historia sobre la heroica misión de una mujer consistente en ayudar a los olvidados de la Francia ocupada. Investigada de forma impecable y bellamente escrita, esta novela de iniciación, valentía y corazón es el mejor trabajo de Clayton hasta la fecha».

Title: [Spanish] - El año de la República Author: José Calvo Poyato Narrator: Germán Gijón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 19 hours 12 minutes Release date: April 15, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Madrid, febrero de 1873. Amadeo abdica y en España se proclama por primera vez la República. Por esos días, Fernando Besora, director del diario vespertino La Iberia a quien ya conocimos en Sangre en la calle del Turco, recibe a un misterioso joven, Alonso Figueroa, que le propone investigar sobre la desaparición de dos valiosos libros de la Biblioteca Nacional. Sus pesquisas lo llevarán tras la pista de una enigmática mujer relacionada con un sujeto que ha aparecido colgado en un desván en la calle de la Luna. La vida política de Madrid está agitada por la amenaza de un golpe de Estado, las diferencias entre los propios republicanos y las noticias de la guerra carlista y la de Cuba. Besora será testigo en el Congreso de los Diputados de encendidos debates, espléndidos discursos y situaciones llamativas en las que participan personalidades como Pi y Margall, Castelar, Figueras o Salmerón. También vivirá en primera persona el movimiento cantonal, con epicentro en Cartagena. Besora se reúne en la tertulia del Suizo con escritores como Galdós, que inicia ese año sus Episodios nacionales, Valera, Zorrilla o Mesonero Romanos, con políticos como Cánovas del Castillo y Morayta, y con pintores como Casado del Alisal. En ella se habla de política y también de literatura y de arte. Después de Sangre en la calle del Turco, José Calvo Poyato regresa con El año de la República a uno de los periodos más atractivos y convulsos de nuestro pasado con una potente novela histórica que incluye una intriga detectivesca, al tiempo que nos sumerge en ambientes propios de la época como las corridas de toros, las tabernas, los balnearios, los duelos, las fiestas de sociedad, los viajes en tren y en diligencia, las librerías o las algaradas callejeras. «Calvo Poyato es el Galdós del siglo xxi». Santiago Posteguillo «Del panorama literario actual, José Calvo Poyato es uno de los autores que mejor nos traslada a épocas pasadas». ONDA CERO «Un referente de la novela histórica española». EL PERIÓDICO «Combina con sabiduría la novela histórica y el thriller». Juan Ángel Juristo, ABC «Un gran historiador. Un excelente novelista». J. J.

Title: His Castilian Hawk Series: #1 of The Castilian Saga Author: Anna Belfrage Narrator: Greg Patmore Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 49 minutes Release date: May 12, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: For bastard-born Robert FitzStephan, being given Eleanor d’Outremer in marriage is an honor. For Eleanor, this forced wedding is anything but a fairy tale. Robert FitzStephan has served Edward Longshanks loyally since the age of twelve. Now he is riding with his king to once and for all bring Wales under English control. Eleanor d’Outremer—Noor to family—lost her Castilian mother as a child and is left entirely alone when her father and brother are killed. When ordered to wed the unknown Robert FitzStephan, she has no choice but to comply. Two strangers in a marriage bed is not easy. Things are further complicated by Noor’s blood-ties to the Welsh princes and by covetous Edith who has warmed Robert’s bed for years. Robert’s new wife may be young and innocent, but he is soon to discover that not only is she spirited and proud, she is also brave. Because when Wales lies gasping and Edward I exacts terrible justice on the last prince and his children, Noor is determined to save at least one member of the House of Aberffraw from the English king. Will years of ingrained service have Robert standing with his king or will he follow his heart and protect his wife, his beautiful and fierce Castilian hawk?

When King Edward IV dies and Lady Elysabeth Scrope delivers her young godson, Edward V, into the Tower of London to prepare for his coronation, she is engulfed in political turmoil. Within months, the prince and his brother have disappeared, Richard III is declared king, and Elysabeth's sister Margaret Beaufort conspires with her son Henry Tudor to invade England and claim the throne. Desperate to protect her godson, Elysabeth battles the intrigue, betrayal and power of the last medieval court, defying her Yorkist husband and her Lancastrian sister under her godmother's sacred oath to keep Prince Edward safe. Bound by blood and rent by honor, Elysabeth is torn between the crown and her family, knowing that if her loyalty is questioned, she is in peril of losing everything—including her life. Were the princes murdered by their uncle, Richard III? Did Margaret Beaufort mastermind their disappearance to usher in the Tudor dynasty? Or did the young boys vanish for their own safety?

Desperate to protect her godson, Elysabeth battles the intrigue, betrayal and power of the last medieval court, defying her Yorkist husband and her Lancastrian sister under her godmother's sacred oath to keep Prince Edward safe. Bound by blood and rent by honor, Elysabeth is torn between the crown and her family, knowing that if her loyalty is questioned, she is in peril of losing everything—including her life. Were the princes murdered by their uncle, Richard III? Did Margaret Beaufort mastermind their disappearance to usher in the Tudor dynasty? Or did the young boys vanish for their own safety? Of anyone at the royal court, Elysabeth has the most to lose—and the most to gain—by keeping secret the fate of the Princes in the Tower. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/679906 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/679906]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Road Back to Sweetgrass: A Novel Author: Linda Legarde Grover Narrator: Charlotte Flyte Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 4 minutes Release date: June 13, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Set in northern Minnesota, The Road Back to Sweetgrass follows Dale Ann, Theresa, and Margie, a trio of American Indian women, from the 1970s to the present, observing their coming of age and the intersection of their lives as they navigate love, economic hardship, loss, and changing family dynamics on the fictional Mozhay Point reservation. As young women, all three leave their homes. Margie and Theresa go to Duluth for college and work; there Theresa gets to know a handsome Indian boy, Michael Washington, who invites her home to the Sweetgrass land allotment to meet his father, Zho Wash, who lives in the original allotment cabin. When Margie accompanies her, complicated relationships are set into motion, and tensions over 'real Indian-ness' emerge. Dale Ann, Margie, and Theresa find themselves pulled back again and again to the Sweetgrass allotment, a silent but ever-present entity in the book. In a powerful final chapter, Zho Wash tells the story of the first days of the allotment, when the Wazhushkag, or Muskrat, family became transformed into the Washingtons by the pen of a federal Indian agent. This sense of place and home is both tangible and spiritual, and Linda LeGarde Grover skillfully connects it with the experience of Native women who came of age during the days of the federal termination policy and the struggle for tribal self-determination.

Title: [German] - Der Englische Löwe (ungekürzt) Author: Mac P. Lorne Narrator: Detlef Bierstedt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 20 hours 6 minutes Release date: May 12, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Ausgezeichnet als 'Buch des Jahres' - Ritter, König und zu Lebzeiten schon eine Legende: Reiten Sie Seite an Seite mit dem Mann, den sie 'Löwenherz' nannten! In seinem historischen Roman lässt Mac P. Lorne mit Richard I. von England einen der berühmtesten Herrscher des Mittelalters lebendig werden. Nur wenig Zeit ist Richard Löwenherz in seiner Heimat England vergönnt: Nachdem er die Rebellion seines Bruders Johann Ohneland niedergeschlagen hat, bricht Richard mit einem kleinen Heer nach Frankreich auf. In der Normandie und Aquitanien hält der französische König Philipp II. Gebiete besetzt, die rechtens ihm gehören und die er von seinem Vater geerbt hat. Trotz zahlenmäßiger Unterlegenheit schlägt das Heer des englischen Löwen seine Gegner ein ums andere Mal, doch Richards Kriegskassen sind fast erschöpft. Schließlich stimmt er einem Waffenstillstand mit Philipp zu. Noch während sie ihr Siegel unter den Vertrag setzen, wissen beide Männer, dass es zwischen ihnen keinen Frieden geben kann ... Mac P. Lornes große Leidenschaft gilt der englischen Geschichte. Nachdem er bereits mehrere erfolgreiche historische Romane veröffentlicht hat - darunter die fünfbändige Robin-Hood-Reihe - hat er mit Richard Löwenherz nun einem der berühmtesten englischen Könige des Mittelalters ein Denkmal gesetzt und schildert auf bewegende Weise die Jahre des Königs nach seiner Rückkehr aus deutscher Gefangenschaft, an die sich andere Autoren bisher kaum heranwagten.

Title: The Hidden Life of Aster Kelly Author: Katherine A. Sherbrooke Narrator: Emily Beresford Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 31 minutes Release date: June 26, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: After winning a prestigious fashion-design contest in 1948, Aster Kelly flees the world of modeling in New York and arrives in Beverly Hills to claim her prize: a design apprenticeship with Fernando Tivoli. But Fernando has no such job available. He’s busily preparing for the opportunity of a lifetime—proving to Galaxy Studios that he is the perfect couturier for their A-list stars. The moment he meets Aster, though, he knows she’s the missing ingredient he needs and asks her to be his stand-in model for Lauren Bacall, promising to mentor her if he wins the contract. Aster and Fernando quickly become entangled with Hollywood insiders—Aster with the head of Galaxy Studios, Fernando with up-and-coming star Christopher Page—and their friendship becomes essential as they navigate a glamorous and complicated existence where what’s real must often be hidden and no one is quite what they seem. As Aster’s ambitions grow and she faces a crisis and Fernando’s future is threatened by the judgmental Hollywood machine, Aster makes a decision that changes the trajectory of their lives forever. Twenty-five years later, despite knowing little of her mother’s time in Hollywood, Aster’s daughter, Lissy, is poised to become a Broadway star. But when the musical gets off to a rocky start, Lissy makes a rash decision of her own in an attempt to save the show. And when long-buried secrets blindside them both, mother and daughter are forced to question everything they thought they knew. Katherine A.

Title: [Spanish] - Las huellas del mal Author: Federico Andahazi Narrator: Javier Carbone Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 9 minutes Release date: April 20, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: 1892. Dos misteriosos agentes de la policía federal llegan al pueblo de Quequén, en la costa atlántica argentina, para resolver un crimen macabro. Uno de ellos es Juan Vucetich, padre de la dactiloscopia. En esta novela, Federico Andahazi retrata con afinada precisión el clima turbulento, expectante e innovador que se vivía a las puertas del siglo XX en nuestro país. Un policial oscuro, erudito y atrapante. Corre el año 1892. Argentina es una nación joven, pero se encuentra entre las más pujantes y desarrolladas del mundo. Dos misteriosos agentes de la policía federal llegan al pueblo de Quequén, en la costa atlántica, para ayudar a resolver un crimen. Dos niños han sido degollados y su madre, viva, aunque en estado catatónico, es la única testigo del hecho. Uno de los agentes es Juan Vucetich, un inmigrante de origen croata que trae un método innovador: la dactiloscopia, una disciplina que permite identificar inequívocamente a una persona por el relieve único de las crestas capilares de los dedos de la mano. Si lograran resolver un crimen tan horroroso gracias a este procedimiento, Argentina tomaría la delantera geopolítica con un logro revolucionario para la administración de los países. Con gran capacidad narrativa y una afinada precisión para describir el clima turbulento, expectante e innovador que se vivía a las puertas del siglo XX, Federico Andahazi creó una historia oscura y atrapante que indaga en personajes tan frágiles y complejos como valientes. Persecuciones, corrupción, intrigas internacionales y bandidos revolucionarios recorren las páginas de esta novela en la que se amalgaman de forma erudita y delicada, el disfrute y la reflexión.

Title: Until We Meet: We'll Meet Again Book 2 Series: #2 of We'll Meet Again Author: Rhonda Forrest Narrator: Casey Withoos Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 55 minutes Release date: April 27, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: A small garrison of Australian soldiers is left to defend a town and its people against the might of the Japanese forces. This is a story of those who were left behind and those who waited for them to return. *** In early 1940, Bud joins the United States Navy, his aim, to become a US Submariner. Less than two years later, Japanese forces bomb Pearl Harbour. Those living on the islands of New Guinea lie directly in the path of the oncoming enemy. In Rabaul, Joanie prepares to depart, leaving behind her fiancée, those who she loves and many who she has become friends with. As the volcano Tavurvur gathers its forces and bursts forth from its crater, the ill-equipped, small Australian defence known as Lark Force is left to secure the small town. Overwhelmed by the large enemy forces, the order is given, ‘every man for themselves.' Although some will survive, 1053 men lose their lives when a US Submarine sinks the POW Japanese ship, Montevideo Maru. The seeds of destiny are sown and the lives of the American submariner, Bud, and those in Rabaul, intrinsically linked. Will Michael return to fulfil his promise of marrying Joanie and what will be the fate of his young daughter, Gracie, who still turns to the evening star for guidance, for her questions to be answered, and above all to be reunited with her father. Until We Meet is an epic saga, based on actual events that continues the story of Elizabeth's Star. A tale of survival, love and family, set amidst the backdrop of World War II.

Title: The Woman Back from Moscow: In Pursuit of Beauty Author: Ha Jin Narrator: Catherine Ho Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 49 minutes Release date: November 28, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Through the life of a remarkable woman, based on pioneering stage director Sun Weishi (1921–1968), this epic novel immerses us in the multifaceted history of China’s Communist Party. As a promising young actress, Sun Weishi made the critical decision to pursue her studies in Moscow—with the blessing of her influential adoptive father, Zhou Enlai, and Mao himself. The valuable insights she gained there during World War II, most notably the significance of characters’ inner lives, would enable her to excel back in China, where she produced works by Chekhov and Gogol, and other socially progressive dramas, such as an adaptation of Uncle Tom’s Cabin. Her striking career as China’s first female director of modern spoken drama (Huaju) would be derailed with the advent of the Cultural Revolution in 1966, which put her once again at odds with an old nemesis: Jiang Ching, a fellow actress who schemed her way to the top as Mao’s fourth and final wife. Through the decades-long rivalry between these two complex women, and their differing approaches to the men in power who shaped their lives, Ha Jin deftly explores the ideals of communism and the reality of the Chinese Communist Party. At the same time, the novel captivates us with Sun Weishi’s personal struggles and triumphs, as she navigates friendship, love, art, and politics amid the great events of the twentieth century.

Title: My Men Author: Victoria Kielland Narrator: Mia Barron Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 37 minutes Release date: June 27, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Based on the true story of Norwegian maid turned Midwestern farmwife Belle Gunness, the first female serial killer in American history. My Men is a fictional account of one broken woman’s descent into inescapable madness. Among thousands of other Norwegian immigrants seeking freedom, Brynhild Størset emigrated to the American Upper Midwest in the late nineteenth century, changing her name and her life. As Bella, later Belle Gunness, she came in search of not only fortune and true faith but, most of all, love.

Title: Last Night at the Hollywood Canteen Author: Sarah James Narrator: Romy Nordlinger Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 24 minutes Release date: November 7, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Perhaps the best place in 1943 Hollywood to see the stars is the Hollywood Canteen, a club for servicemen staffed exclusively by those in show business. Murder mystery playwright Annie Laurence, new in town after a devastating breakup, definitely hopes to rub elbows with the right stars. Maybe then she can get her movie made. But Hollywood proves to be more than tinsel and glamour. When despised film critic Fiona Farris is found dead in the Canteen kitchen, Annie realizes that any one of the Canteen’s luminous volunteers could be guilty of the crime. To catch the killer, Annie falls in with Fiona’s friends, a bitter and cynical group—each as uniquely unhappy in their life and career as Annie is in hers—that call themselves the Ambassador’s Club. Solving a murder in real life, it turns out, is a lot harder than writing one for the stage. And by involving herself in the secrets and lies of the Ambassador’s Club, Annie just might have put a target on her own back.

But what happens when her country fails her? In November 1941, Annie Fox, an Army nurse, is transferred to Hickam Field, an Army air base in Honolulu. The others on her transport plane are thrilled to work in paradise, but Annie sees her new duty station as the Army’s way of holding the door open to her retirement. But serving her country is her calling, and she will go wherever she is told. On December 7, Annie’s on her way to work when the first Japanese Zero fighter plane flies low over Hickam’s parade ground. The death and destruction that follow leave her no time to process what’s happening. She rallies her nurses, and they work to save as many lives as they can. But soon, their small hospital is overwhelmed. Annie drives into Honolulu to gather supplies, nurses, and several women who will donate blood. However, the nurses are Japanese Americans, and the blood donors are prostitutes. Under Annie’s leadership and working together in unexpected ways, they make it through that horrific day, when one of the Japanese American nurses and Annie’s friend, Kay, is arrested as a suspected subversive. As Hickam tries to recover, Annie works to find her friend and return Kay to her family. But Annie’s love for her country is put to the test. How can she reconcile the American bravery and resilience she saw on December 7 with the prejudice and injustice she witnessesjust a few months later? Based on the real life of Lieutenant Annie Fox, chief nurse of Hickam Hospital, The Woman with a Purple Heart is an inspiring story of heroic leadership, courage, and friendship that also highlights a shocking and shameful side of history.

Title: The Woman at the Wheel Author: Penny Haw Narrator: Caroline Hewitt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 8 minutes Release date: October 3, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.5 of Total 2 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: 'Unfortunately, only a girl again.' From a young age, Cäcilie Bertha Ringer is fascinated by her father’s work as a master builder in Pforzheim, Germany. But those five words, which he wrote next to her name in the family Bible at her birth, haunt Bertha. Years later, Bertha meets Carl Benz and falls in love—with him and his extraordinary dream of building a horseless carriage. Bertha has such faith in him that she invests her dowry in his plans, a dicey move since they alone believe in the machine. When Carl’s partners threaten to withdraw their support, he’s ready to cut ties. Bertha knows the decision would ruin everything. Ignoring the cynics, she takes matters into her own hands, secretly planning a scheme that will either hasten the family’s passage to absolute derision or prove their genius. What Bertha doesn’t know is that Carl is on the cusp of making a deal with their nemesis. She’s not only risking her marriage and their life’s work but is also up against the patriarchy, Carl’s own self-doubt, and the clock. The Woman at the Wheel is based on the real life of Bertha Benz, whose husband built the first prototype automobile, which eventually evolved into the Mercedes Benz marque. Like so many other women, Bertha lived largely in her husband’s shadow, but her contributions are now celebrated in this inspiring story of perseverance, resilience, and love.

Title: Proud Sorrows Series: #18 of Billy Boyle WWII Mysteries Author: James R. Benn Narrator: Peter Berkrot Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 59 minutes Release date: September 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Norfolk, England, November 1944: After a series of dangerous missions in the South of France, US Army Captain Billy Boyle is finally on leave, and is settling into a peaceful rest at the country estate of Sir Richard Seaton, the father of Billy’s British lover, Diana. Seaton Manor is a comfortable haven, and Billy is eager to spend a few precious days in Diana’s company pretending the war is far away. Unfortunately, Billy’s leave is cut short when a crashed German bomber resurfaces off the coast with the corpse of a British officer in the pilot seat. The nearby village of Slewford hosts a top-secret military intelligence operation, home to high-ranking German POWs, and so the crash is a matter of national security. Billy is assigned by the commander of the POW facility to investigate. After the plane is discovered, a local villager is murdered—and suddenly what had appeared to be a failed enemy military operation takes on an even more sinister aspect. All Billy’s ex-Boston cop instincts are put to the test as he interviews the grieving, angry, and conniving citizens of this idyllic English country village in search of the truth. James R.

Title: [German] - Die Bildhauerin: Mit Rodin begeht Camille Claudel neue Wege, doch ihre Liebe droht zu scheitern Author: Pia Rosenberger Narrator: Hannah Baus Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 46 minutes Release date: April 12, 2021 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: 'Ich fordere lautstark die Freiheit!' Camille Claudel Muse, Aktmodell, Bildhauerin – Camille Claudel war einer der bedeutendsten Künstlerinnen des 19. Jahrhunderts, die sich von gesellschaftlichen Zwängen befreite und sich in einer männlichen Disziplin durchsetzte. Paris, 1881. Die siebzehnjährige Camille Claudel weiß schon früh, was sie will: Bildhauerin werden. Doch als Frau bleibt ihr ein Studium an der École des Beaux-Arts verschlossen. Gemeinsam mit drei Freundinnen mietet sie ein Atelier und stürzt sich in ein Leben der Bohème. Schon bald erregt sie mit ihren Plastiken die Aufmerksamkeit des viel älteren Auguste Rodin. Dieser protegiert und unterrichtet sie, Camille wird zu seiner unentbehrlichen Mitarbeiterin – und schließlich auch zu seiner Geliebten. Doch sie wünscht sich mehr, als nur eine seiner Musen zu sein. Die Geschichte ihres Lebens mit vielen Größen des Fin de Siècle wie Auguste Rodin, Claude Debussy, Alfred Boucher, Paul Claudel, Jessie Lipscomb u. v. a. - kenntnisreich und emotional erzählt.

Title: [Spanish] - El ejército de Dios Author: Sebastián Roa Narrator: Germán Gijón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 35 hours 33 minutes Release date: April 1, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Año 1174. El Imperio almohade, fortalecido tras someter todo al-Ándalus, se dispone a lanzar sus inmensos ejércitos sobre los divididos reinos cristianos. Sus pobladores serán obligados a convertirse al islam so pena de pasarlos a cuchillo o hacerlos esclavos, pero, frente al fanatismo africano, el rey Alfonso de Castilla trata de lograr un equilibrio que supere las rivalidades entre cristianos y lleve a la unión contra el enemigo común. En El ejército de Dios, las tramas de pasión, intriga, guerra y ambición se entrecruzan de manera magistral. La constante rivalidad entre los reyes de León y Castilla, auxiliados respectivamente por las poderosas familias de los Castro y los Lara, se verá tamizada por la intervención de una hermosa y astuta noble, Urraca López de Haro, y por las maniobras en la sombra de la reina Leonor Plantagenet. En la frontera con el islam, el cristiano Ordoño de Aza se verá atrapado entre la amistad con un andalusí, Ibn Sanadid, y la fascinación que despierta en él Safiyya, hija del rey Lobo y esposa del príncipe almohade Yaqub. Reinos de lucha, intriga, acción, sexo, giros inesperados y personajes carismáticos e inolvidables hacen de la Trilogía Almohade de Sebastián Roa (La loba de al-Ándalus, El ejército de Dios y Las cadenas del destino) una formidable representación de una época decisiva en la historia de España.

Title: [German] - Die Geierwally: Ein Roman von Wilhelmine von Hillern Author: Wilhelmine Von Hillern Narrator: Peter Bieringer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 37 minutes Release date: April 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Die Geierwally Ein Roman von Wilhelmine von Hillern, gelesen von Peter Bieringer. 'Was Du bist, das haben die harten Menschen, die rauhen Berge und die wilden Wetter aus Dir gemacht, und das weiß der liebe Gott recht wohl, denn er sieht Dir ins Herz …' Was uns heute an den Hochalpen lieblich und idyllisch erscheint, war für die Tiroler Landbevölkerung im 19. Jahrhundert ein zäher Kampf ums Überleben. Die Autorin Wilhelmine von Hillern, die 1875 mit der Geier-Wally einen Bestseller landete, war selbst kein Kind der Berge. Aber ihr zweibändiger Roman weist uns neben der eigentlichen Liebesgeschichte auf mehrere Nebenschauplätze. Feudale Strukturen aus Grundbesitzern, die mit ihrem Reichtum protzen, und dem rechtlosen Dienstpersonal. Eine bigotte, streng moralisierende Weltsicht, die wiederum dazu diente, nicht an der Machtverteilung zu rütteln. Mangel an Bildung und schöngeistiger Erbauung, welcher den Bewohnern der Hochtäler einen harten Charakter verleihen muss. Bart- oder Lämmergeier wurden nicht als schützenswerte Kreaturen angesehen, sondern gnadenlos verfolgt und getötet. Und nicht zuletzt gibt uns die intensive Naturbeschreibung im Zeitalter dahin schmelzender Gletscher einen mahnenden Fingerzeig. Das Gerüst der Handlung könnte einem Groschenroman entstammen: Schönes junges Mädchen liebt schönen jungen Mann, insgeheim er sie auch, aber durch widrige Umstände kann er sich nicht erklären. Schicksalhafte Begegnungen, Reaktionen, Überreaktionen, Katastrophen, Happy End - und das alles vor der gewaltigen Kulisse der Ötztaler Alpen. Aber durch Hillerns machtvolle Sprache und raffinierte Dramaturgie mit immer neuen Volten hebt sich der Roman wohltuend von den Dramoletten der Gartenlaube-Zeit ab. Kein Wunder, dass der Stoff wieder und wieder zu Verfilmungen herhalten musste. Mehr als 20 Jahre Jahre trug ich mich mit der Idee, ein Hörbuch daraus zu machen. Als mir die kostbare Erstausgabe in schöner Fraktur und zeitgenössischer Orthographie wieder in die Hände fiel, ging ich ans Werk. Ein Problem ergab sich in der ausgeschriebenen wörtlichen Rede. Kenner der Tiroler Mundart werden schnell bemerken, dass ich alle Feinheiten des Idioms nicht fehlerfrei wiedergeben kann und bitte um Nachsicht. Musikalische Akzente bilden Ausschnitte aus der Alpensymphonie von Richard Strauss, die der Komponist am Pult des Bayerischen Staatsorchesters 1941 aufgenommen hat. Aber in diesem Fall hört man kaum heraus, dass es sich um den Schneeferner-Gletscher auf der Zugspitze und nicht den Ötztaler Marzellferner handelt … (Peter Bieringer, Hamburg, im März 2023) Der Hörbuchtext folgt der Erstausgabe: Die Geier-Wally. Eine Geschichte aus den Tyroler Alpen. Gebrüder Paetel, Berlin 1875. Covergestaltung: unter Verwendung eines Gemäldes (Ausschnitt) von Max Pechstein 'Geierwally', um 1895, Kunstsammlungen Max-Pechstein-Museum, Zwickau. Coverschrift gesetzt aus der AcmeFont. Musik: unter Verwendung einer historischen Aufnahme der 'Alpensinfonie' von Richard Strauss mit dem Bayerischen Staatsorchester, 1941. Über den Sprecher: Peter Bieringer (*1957) gehörte viele Jahre zum Ensemble der NDR-Sprecher, seit 2006 ist er freischaffend. Seine Stimme ist präsent in zahllosen Radiofeatures, TV-Dokumentationen, Synchronrollen und Hörspielen. In seinem eigenen Studio entstanden bisher Dutzende Hörbuchtitel, darunter 'Heeresbericht', 'Ich kann nicht vergeben', 'Luther lesen', 'Wie man ein Kind lieben soll', 'Acht Tage im Mai', 'Gefallene Ritter', und zuletzt auch für die hoerbuchedition words and music: 'Die Lebensansichten des Katers Murr', 'Meister Floh' von E. T. A. Hoffmann oder 'Die Sängerin' und 'Mitteilungen aus den Memoiren des Satan' von Wilhelm Hauff.

Title: [German] - Die Geierwally: Ein Roman von Wilhelmine von Hillern Author: Wilhelmine Von Hillern Narrator: Peter Bieringer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 37 minutes Release date: April 5, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Die Geierwally Ein Roman von Wilhelmine von Hillern, gelesen von Peter Bieringer. 'Was Du bist, das haben die harten Menschen, die rauhen Berge und die wilden Wetter aus Dir gemacht, und das weiß der liebe Gott recht wohl, denn er sieht Dir ins Herz …' Was uns heute an den Hochalpen lieblich und idyllisch erscheint, war für die Tiroler Landbevölkerung im 19. Jahrhundert ein zäher Kampf ums Überleben. Die Autorin Wilhelmine von Hillern, die 1875 mit der Geier-Wally einen Bestseller landete, war selbst kein Kind der Berge. Aber ihr zweibändiger Roman weist uns neben der eigentlichen Liebesgeschichte auf mehrere Nebenschauplätze. Feudale Strukturen aus Grundbesitzern, die mit ihrem Reichtum protzen, und dem rechtlosen Dienstpersonal. Eine bigotte, streng moralisierende Weltsicht, die wiederum dazu diente, nicht an der Machtverteilung zu rütteln. Mangel an Bildung und schöngeistiger Erbauung, welcher den Bewohnern der Hochtäler einen harten Charakter verleihen muss. Bart- oder Lämmergeier wurden nicht als schützenswerte Kreaturen angesehen, sondern gnadenlos verfolgt und getötet. Und nicht zuletzt gibt uns die intensive Naturbeschreibung im Zeitalter dahin schmelzender Gletscher einen mahnenden Fingerzeig.

Title: Chickamauga: A Novel of the American Civil War Series: #2 of The O'Sullivan Chronicles Author: Blair Howard Narrator: M. G. Willis, Laura Willis Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 36 minutes Release date: April 25, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Chickamauga: A Novel of the American Civil War is the story of a great battle of the Civil War and the people who fought it, many of them real and some of them the product of the author’s imagination. Chickamauga is a story of the heroism, selflessness, and frailty of the men whose deeds are etched forever on the fields and forests at Chickamauga, the River of Death. Chickamauga is the story of the generals who planned the grand strategies that would be played out by lesser but braver men. And it’s the story of heroism, desperate deeds, and death and destruction on a scale the likes of which had never been seen before. Chickamauga is the story of Jesse Dixon and Patrick McCann, two boys in blue uniforms who must grow up before their time, and of Billy Cobb, a Confederate soldier who found himself at war, not only with the Union enemy, but also with his conscience. And it’s the story of Sarah Bradley, the daughter of a Southern farmer, and Blake Winter, the Yankee colonel who fell in love with her. Chickamauga is the story of ordinary people in extraordinary times.

Title: [German] - Mord in Verona: Todessüsse Series: #1 of [German Edition] Mord in Verona Author: Máire Brüning Narrator: Melissa Florence Jung Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 42 minutes Release date: March 30, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Eine verschollene Braut. Mysteriöse Todesfälle. Und eine neugierige, schwarze Klosterkatze. Herbst 1267: Ein Auftrag seines Lehnsherrn führt den Söldner Yon Moreno nach Verona – eine Stadt, die er nie mehr betreten wollte. Er soll einen wichtigen Geldgeber für Herzog Konradins geplanten Feldzug abholen. Doch der Mann stirbt vor seinen Augen. Wider Willen wird Yon in die Aufklärung des rätselhaften Todesfalles hineingezogen, obwohl ihm nichts weniger behagt, als unerwünschte Aufmerksamkeit auf sich zu ziehen. Er hütet ein Geheimnis, das ihn an den Galgen bringen kann. Dass ausgerechnet Ada, die Tochter des Stadtmedicus ihn unterstützen soll, macht es für Yon noch schwieriger, seine Vergangenheit zu verbergen. Alles ändert sich, als ein Anschlag auf Ada verübt wird. Yon und Ada sind nun fest entschlossen, den skrupellosen Gegner zu entlarven. Je näher das ungleiche Duo dem Mörder kommt, desto mehr werden sie selbst zu Gejagten. Plötzlich steht alles auf dem Spiel: ihr Ruf, ihre Zukunft und sogar ihr nacktes Leben.

Title: [Spanish] - El náufrago de la Gran Armada Author: Fernando Martínez Laínez Narrator: Diego Rousselon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 6 minutes Release date: April 20, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: La épica historia de un náufrago de la Armada Invencible: el capitán Francisco de Cuéllar. A finales del siglo XVI España emprende una ambiciosa campaña naval contra Inglaterra. Es un momento crítico: el poderío imperial hispano empieza a declinar, los problemas en Flandes se multiplican y piratas ingleses como Francis Drake atacan las ciudades españolas en el Caribe y son recibidos en Londres con todos los honores. Entre espías, jefes milatres, monarcas, consejeros y rebeldes irlandeses, en un desfile histórico en el que aparecerán todos los personajes y las intrigas de la alta política del momento, comprenderemos la razón de ser de la Gran Armada, una empresa que acabó siendo la más desastrosa del reinado de Felipe II. Y así llegamos hasta el capitán Francisco de Cuéllar y su extraordinaria aventura. Tras el naufragio de su barco, destrozado contra la costa irlandesa en el otoño de 1588, Cuéllar emprendió una marcha en solitario por el interior de Irlanda. Fue un intento desesperado de escapar de la muerte segura que le esperaba si era capturado, como ocurrió con otros muchos náufragos españoles de la expedición, asesinados y desvalijados en cuanto pisaron tierra firme. Fernando Martínez Laínez, uno de los mayores divulgadores de nuestra historia y especialista en la época, se embarca junto a sus protagonistas en una novela épica, con la que viviremos la impresionante historia de un superviviente de la mal llamada Armada Invencible en territorio enemigo.

Title: [Spanish] - La Isla de la Pasión Author: Laura Restrepo Narrator: Mónica Pardo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 7 minutes Release date: April 20, 2023 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: Una historia estremecedora y verídica sobre el exilio y la violencia por la autora de Delirio, la novela ganadora del Premio Alfaguara de Novela 2004. Ésta es la historia estremecedora y verídica de un grupo de náufragos sometidos durante nueve años a las más duras pruebas de supervivencia, entre ellas una extraña guerra a muerte en la cual nunca llegan a ver la cara de sus enemigos. Ramón Arnaud, joven oficial del Ejército mexicano, acepta una misión en una isla desierta, no por casualidad llamada de la Pasión, y parte hacia allá junto a su esposa Alicia y once soldados con sus familias. Entre tanto, su país entra en el vértigo de una guerra civil, cae el Gobierno que los ha enviado y nadie vuelve a acordarse de ellos ni de la isla, donde quedan librados a su suerte. Setenta años después de ocurridos estos hechos reales pero olvidados, Laura Restrepo rastreó su pista, entrevistando a los familiares de los supervivientes e investigando en los archivos de la Armada mexicana y de la estadounidense, en viejas cartas de amor, y en los decires y recuerdos de los vecinos de varios pueblos de México. El resultado es esta aventura fantasmagórica, surrealista y conmovedoramente heroica. Escrita durante los años de exilio político de la autora en México, La Isla de la Pasión es una historia de lejanías y aislamiento pero también de la dulce posibilidad del regreso, y una metáfora de todas las formas posibles de exilio.

Ésta es la historia estremecedora y verídica de un grupo de náufragos sometidos durante nueve años a las más duras pruebas de supervivencia, entre ellas una extraña guerra a muerte en la cual nunca llegan a ver la cara de sus enemigos. Ramón Arnaud, joven oficial del Ejército mexicano, acepta una misión en una isla desierta, no por casualidad llamada de la Pasión, y parte hacia allá junto a su esposa Alicia y once soldados con sus familias. Entre tanto, su país entra en el vértigo de una guerra civil, cae el Gobierno que los ha enviado y nadie vuelve a acordarse de ellos ni de la isla, donde quedan librados a su suerte. Setenta años después de ocurridos estos hechos reales pero olvidados, Laura Restrepo rastreó su pista, entrevistando a los familiares de los supervivientes e investigando en los archivos de la Armada mexicana y de la estadounidense, en viejas cartas de amor, y en los decires y recuerdos de los vecinos de varios pueblos de México. El resultado es esta aventura fantasmagórica, surrealista y conmovedoramente heroica. Escrita durante los años de exilio político de la autora en México, La Isla de la Pasión es una historia de lejanías y aislamiento pero también de la dulce posibilidad del regreso, y una metáfora de todas las formas posibles de exilio. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/677959 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/677959]]> to listen full audiobooks.
