Title: The Wild Irish: A Novel of Elizabeth I and the Pirate O'Malley Author: Robin Maxwell Narrator: Suzan Crowley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 58 minutes Release date: November 22, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Two female titans—perfectly matched in guts, guile, and political genius. Elizabeth, queen of England, has taken on the mighty Spanish Armada and, in a stunning sea battle, vanquished it. But her troubles are far from over. Just across the western channel, her colony Ireland is embroiled in seething rebellion, with the island's fierce, untamed clan chieftains and their 'wild Irish' followers refusing to bow to their English oppressors. Grace O'Malley—notorious pirate, gunrunner, and 'Mother of the Irish Rebellion'—is at the heart of the conflict. For years, she has fought against the English stranglehold on her beloved country. At the height of the uprising Grace takes an outrageous risk, sailing up the Thames to London for a face-to-face showdown with her nemesis, the queen of England. In this 'enthralling historical fiction' (Publishers Weekly), Robin Maxwell masterfully brings to life these strong and pugnacious women in order to tell the little-known but crucial saga of Elizabeth's Irish war.

Title: Tales from the Mausoleum Club: 13 full-cast curious tales Author: James Hendrie, Ian Brown Narrator: Timothy Spall, Terence Stamp, Alison Steadman, Miranda Richardson, Spike Milligan, Roy Hudd, Full Cast, Stephen Fry, Andrew Sachs, Martin Jarvis, Jim Broadbent Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 52 minutes Release date: December 1, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: An all-star cast attend a mysterious private club in this hilarious parody of classic horror tales Membership of the exclusive Mausoleum Club isn't for the faint of heart. The Honorable Clarence Green wants in, but to join he must first hear the spine-chilling stories of the existing members, before enthralling them with one of his own. But are their stories fact or fiction? And will Green still want to join after hearing the horrors they have to tell? A brilliantly unexpected and macabre comedy series parodying classic Victorian stories in episodes such as 'A Study in Starlets', 'The Turn of the Knob' and 'The Pet and the Pendulum', Tales from the Mausoleum Club brings to life strange tales of mystery objects, spooky country mansions, West Country paganism and unholy animal projects. This creepy collection of thirteen episodes opens with the standalone pilot episode, 'The Demon Cakestand of Beastley Chase', starring Stephen Fry. The following two series - Tales from the Mausoleum Club and The Fall of the Mausoleum Club - feature more stunning casts including Terence Stamp, Timothy Spall, Andrew Sachs, Alison Steadman, Jim Broadbent, Roy Hudd, Miranda Richardson, Martin Jarvis and Spike Milligan. It is a compilation of curses, hauntings, monsters and (hysterical) laughter. So... will you dare to join the Mausoleum Club?

Title: [Spanish] - El águila y la Lambda Author: Pedro Santamaria Narrator: Antonio Raluy Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 13 minutes Release date: October 7, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Año 256 a.C. Después de casi diez años de guerra, Roma y Cartago se han desangrado mutuamente sin que ninguna consiga imponerse claramente. Marco Atilio Régulo, recién elegido cónsul, es enviado por el senado a África, al mando de la mayor flota jamás botada por Roma, con el fin de ir conquistando las ciudades que rodean Cartago, estrangular a la capital enemiga y poner fin al conflicto de una vez por todas. Los púnicos, con un ejército muy inferior al romano y conociendo el prestigio militar de Régulo, se ven obligados a ponerse en manos de Jantipo, un curtido mercenario espartano al que confiarán su futuro. Sin embargo, los despóticos gobernantes cartagineses, temiendo que una vez que se haga con el control del ejército, lo utilice para derrocarles, le encargan a Arishat, una bella cortesana, que vigile los pasos del espartano; pero ninguno de ellos está preparado para lo que les depara el destino. Basándose en los relatos del historiador griego Polibio, Pedro Santamaría narra con fidelidad y un ritmo demoledor la fascinante historia de la primera expedición romana a África, y el trágico y épico desenlace de la batalla de Bagradas, donde se jugará el futuro de Cartago.

Title: [Spanish] - Senderos salvajes Author: Santiago Mazarro Narrator: Bobby Sánchez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 24 minutes Release date: October 7, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Principios del siglo XIX. El Oeste de Norteamérica es un territorio salvaje e inexplorado. Un lugar repleto de bosques vírgenes, llanuras inmensas y tribus nativas dispuestas a defenderse de los ataques del hombre blanco. Ajeno a los peligros que entraña, Joaquín, un joven huérfano, se une a la expedición de su tío, Manuel Lisa, un comerciante de pieles que está llamado a convertirse en el español más influyente del Lejano Oeste americano. Por desgracia, trescientas millas río arriba, las cordilleras heladas y los animales salvajes no serán la única amenaza para los expedicionarios de Lisa: más allá del Yellowstone, las traiciones y envidias acechan, y los indios podrían acabar siendo los únicos en quienes confiar en un vasto terreno que reclaman para sí los Estados Unidos, el Imperio británico, la Francia napoleónica y la Corona española. Santiago Mazarro narra con un ritmo vertiginoso y grandes dosis de suspense uno de los episodios más convulsos de la historia americana en esta trepidante novela de aventuras que huye de los tópicos y presenta dos mundos —el ya colonizado y el aún por explorar— muchas veces enfrentados.

Title: The Book Spy Author: Alan Hlad Narrator: Walles Hamonde Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 27 minutes Release date: January 31, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In this engaging, dramatic historical novel that illuminates a little-known facet of World War II, USA Today bestselling author Alan Hlad explores the real-life librarian spies who hunted down crucial intelligence throughout Europe. 1942: With the war's outcome hanging in the balance, every sliver of intelligence can be critical. Though far from the battlefields, cities like Lisbon, Portugal's neutral capital, become lynchpins in a different kind of warfare, as President Roosevelt sends an unlikely new taskforce on a unique mission. They are librarians and microfilm specialists trained in espionage, working with a special branch of the Office of Strategic Services. By acquiring and scouring Axis newspapers, books, technical manuals, and periodicals, the librarians can gather information about troop location, weaponry, and military plans. Maria Alves, a microfilm expert working at the New York Public Library, is dispatched to Lisbon, where she meticulously photographs publications and sends the film to London to be analyzed. Working in tandem with Tiago Soares, a brave and honorable bookstore owner on a precarious mission of his own—providing Jewish refugees with forged passports and visas—Maria acquires vital information, including a directory of arms factories in Germany. But as she and Tiago grow closer, any future together is jeopardized when Maria's superiors ask her to pose as a double agent, feeding misinformation to Lars Steiger, a wealthy Swiss banker and Nazi sympathizer who launders Hitler's gold. Gaining Lars' trust will bring Maria into the very heart of the Fuhrer's inner circle. And it will provide her with a chance to help steer the course of war, if she is willing to take risks as great as the possible rewards . . .

Though far from the battlefields, cities like Lisbon, Portugal's neutral capital, become lynchpins in a different kind of warfare, as President Roosevelt sends an unlikely new taskforce on a unique mission. They are librarians and microfilm specialists trained in espionage, working with a special branch of the Office of Strategic Services. By acquiring and scouring Axis newspapers, books, technical manuals, and periodicals, the librarians can gather information about troop location, weaponry, and military plans. Maria Alves, a microfilm expert working at the New York Public Library, is dispatched to Lisbon, where she meticulously photographs publications and sends the film to London to be analyzed. Working in tandem with Tiago Soares, a brave and honorable bookstore owner on a precarious mission of his own—providing Jewish refugees with forged passports and visas—Maria acquires vital information, including a directory of arms factories in Germany. But as she and Tiago grow closer, any future together is jeopardized when Maria's superiors ask her to pose as a double agent, feeding misinformation to Lars Steiger, a wealthy Swiss banker and Nazi sympathizer who launders Hitler's gold. Gaining Lars' trust will bring Maria into the very heart of the Fuhrer's inner circle. And it will provide her with a chance to help steer the course of war, if she is willing to take risks as great as the possible rewards . . . https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/626381 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/626381]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Hitler's Resurrection Author: Steve Matthews Narrator: Deirdra Whelan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 58 minutes Release date: October 1, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Nazi Germany has been crushed, but is the war really over? Klara, Hitler's personal cook, swears she glimpsed him fleeing the Berlin bunker via a secret tunnel. The world needs undeniable proof of the Fuhrer's death, but it's not that simple. While Allied intelligence agents scour Europe to find such proof, and a Hitler double – ‘the Wolf' – lays a false trail across two continents, the real Hitler hides out in a Polish monastery, desperate to find his gold train so he can fund the Fourth Reich. Klara, already pregnant with Martin Bormann's child, is one of the countless women brutally raped as Russian forces take Berlin. She miscarries and can't help wondering if she will ever be free of the war's burden. Meanwhile, her sister Natalka is working with the Polish government, tracking down and executing Nazi fugitives. She locates Klara and recruits her to help track Hitler: as his former cook, Klara can infiltrate his inner circle. They find Hitler's hideout via a tip-off. Klara makes tentative contact: the Fuhrer, weakened and isolated, is thrilled to have her back as his cook – and companion. He feels no threat from her but – profoundly traumatised by the war, the death camps, the rape and miscarriage – Klara can take no more. Following a defining act of conscience, she gains closure at last, for both herself and the crippled world. But one final twist awaits, revealing a future she couldn't possibly have imagined!

Title: Blood Feud: Wolves of Odin Book 1 Series: #1 of Wolves of Odin Author: S. J. A. Turney Narrator: Malk Williams Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 54 minutes Release date: October 27, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The Wolves of Odin have been unleashed: the hunt has begun. Anno Domini 1040. Christianity has swept unstoppably across Scandinavia, leaving few enclaves of the old ways clinging on to their fading world as King Olof of Sweden works to convert his people. A young warrior, Halfdan, has witnessed the ‘mercy' of the Christian lords, watched his people attacked, his village burned and the Odin stone toppled as heretical. Watched his father cut down by an ambitious Christian jarl and his zealous priest. Among the ashes of his world, he vowed an oath of vengeance before all the gods. That oath will bring together an unlikely band of allies and carry them to the very edge of the world, fighting giants, dragons and wraiths, in pursuit of his father's killer: Yngvar. The jarl is powerful, and the weaving of Fate difficult, but the blood price must be paid. “An intelligent, fast-paced but finely crafted novel of battle, comradeship and bloody revenge – with some surprising twists along the way.

Title: Mastering the Art of French Murder Series: #1 of American in Paris Mystery Author: Colleen Cambridge Narrator: Polly Lee Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 56 minutes Release date: April 25, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Fans of Jacqueline Winspear, Marie Benedict, Nita Prose, and of course, Julia Child, will adore this magnifique new mystery set in Paris and starring Julia Child's (fictional) best friend, confidant, and fellow American. From the acclaimed author of Murder at Mallowan Hall, this delightful new book provides a fresh perspective on the iconic chef's years in post–WWII Paris. 'Enchanting . . . Cambridge captures Child's distinct voice and energy so perfectly. Expect to leave this vacation hoping for a return trip.' —Publishers Weekly As Paris rediscovers its joie de vivre, Tabitha Knight, recently arrived from Detroit for an extended stay with her French grandfather, is on her own journey of discovery. Paris isn't just the City of Light; it's the city of history, romance, stunning architecture . . . and food. Thanks to her neighbor and friend Julia Child, another ex-pat who's fallen head over heels for Paris, Tabitha is learning how to cook for her Grandpère and Oncle Rafe. Between tutoring Americans in French, visiting the market, and eagerly sampling the results of Julia's studies at Le Cordon Bleu cooking school, Tabitha's sojourn is proving thoroughly delightful. That is, until the cold December day they return to Julia's building and learn that a body has been found in the cellar. Tabitha recognizes the victim as a woman she'd met only the night before, at a party given by Julia's sister, Dort. The murder weapon found nearby is recognizable too—a knife from Julia's kitchen. Tabitha is eager to help the investigation, but is shocked when Inspector Merveille reveals that a note, in Tabitha's handwriting, was found in the dead woman's pocket. Is this murder a case of international intrigue, or something far more personal? From the shadows of the Tour Eiffel at midnight, to the tiny third-floor Child kitchen, to the grungy streets of Montmartre, Tabitha navigates through the city hoping to find the real killer before she or one of her friends ends up in prison . . . or worse. 'Part historical fiction, part mystery, Mastering the Art of French Murder is totally delectable entertainment.' —The Washington Post 'Certain to appeal to a broad readership, especially fans of Jacqueline Winspear, Rhys Bowen, and Cambridge's own Phyllida Bright series.' —First Clue, STARRED REVIEW Colleen Cambridge Tue, 25 Apr 2023 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/625825 thebookvoice.com 9:56:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/625825]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: General Custer - Folly At Little Bighorn Author: Elizabeth Bacon Custer Narrator: The Cliff, Cyril Taylor-Carr Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 0 minutes Release date: September 17, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 1 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Since the Battle of Little Bighorn, George Armstrong Custer (1839-1876) possessed one of the most unique places in American history. Although he was a capable cavalry officer who served honorably during the Civil War, he remains one of the most instantly identifiable and famous military men in American history due to the fact he was killed during one of the country’s most well known and ignominious defeats, the Battle of Little Bighorn. And yet, this one relatively insignificant battle during America’s Indian Wars has become one of the country’s most mythologized events and continues to fascinate Americans nearly 140 years later. Though he’s now best remembered for “Custer’s Last Stand”, Custer mastered the art of public relations, dressing impeccably and having newspaper correspondents accompany him on the campaign, all in an effort to help cultivate and enhance his legacy. For nearly 58 years, Elizabeth Bacon Custer was probably the most famous widow in the world. In this lively, fascinating, loving portrait of life on the plains with her already-famous husband, Libbie tells a civilized audience of the excitement, fun, and perils endured at a remote frontier post. Intelligent and beautiful, Libbie was a partner, confidant, and booster to the general, as well as an important figure in the social life of the posts he commanded. This book has been used as source material on the general's life as well as the frontier army for well over a century. Celebrated among the prominent people of her day, Libbie never remarried after Custer's death at the Little Bighorn in 1876. She spent the rest of her life writing and lecturing about him, burnishing his reputation and keeping his memory alive. Long a jewel of western Americana, this book continues to find and entertain new audiences in the 21st century.

Berlín, 1926. Sophia solo tiene veinte años pero su vida ya parece haberse hecho pedazos: su primer amor ha terminado en escándalo, su familia no quiere verla y ella ha tenido que abandonar sus estudios de química en la universidad. Tras viajar a París para empezar de cero, un día se encuentra frente al deslumbrante escaparate del nuevo salón de Helena Rubinstein, una ambiciosa empresaria cuyo nombre está en boca de todas las damas parisinas. Sophia tiene entonces una revelación: intentará crear una crema prodigiosa que deslumbre a madame Rubinstein y la convenza de admitirla en su imperio de la belleza. Impresionada por el talento de Sophia, Helena decide ofrecerle un empleo, siempre que esté dispuesta a seguirla a su oficina de Nueva York y a volcarse totalmente en el trabajo. Sophia se verá así envuelta en el gran proyecto de crear nuevos y revolucionarios cosméticos para Helena Rubinstein en su feroz competencia con su rival Elizabeth Arden. Pero Nueva York también está llena de tentaciones y Sophia, que creía haber terminado con los hombres, se encontrará trabajando con Darren O'Connor, un diseñador de mirada magnética que podría hacer tambalear el solemne pacto de fidelidad hecho con Helena...

UN VIAJE AL CORAZÓN HUMANO Y A LA AVENTURA. UNO DE LOS LIBROS DEL AÑO SEGÚN EL CORREO «La etapa creativa que está atravesando Arturo Pérez-Reverte resulta asombrosa. ¿[Revolución es] la mejor novela de Pérez-Reverte? Al menos y sin duda, una de las mejores». Sergio Vila-Sanjuán, La Vanguardia Ésta es la historia de un hombre, tres mujeres, una revolución y un tesoro. La revolución fue la de México en tiempos de Emiliano Zapata y Francisco Villa. El tesoro fueron quince mil monedas de oro de a veinte pesos de las denominadas maximilianos, robadas en un banco de Ciudad Juárez el 8 de mayo de 1911. El hombre se llamaba Martín Garret Ortiz y era un joven ingeniero de minas español. Todo empezó para él ese mismo día, cuando desde su hotel oyó un primer disparo lejano. Salió a la calle para ver qué ocurría y a partir de ese momento su vida cambió para siempre... Revolución es mucho más que una novela sobre los dramáticos acontecimientos que sacudieron la república mexicana en el primer tercio del siglo XX. Es un relato de iniciación y madurez a través del caos, la lucidez y la violencia: el asombroso descubrimiento de las reglas ocultas que determinan el amor, la lealtad, la muerte y la vida. «Toda la vida escuché en mi casa la historia de aquel amigo de mi bisabuelo, ingeniero de minas, que trabajó en México en plena revolución. Ese recuerdo remoto me ha aproximado a mi propia relación con la aventura y me ha llevado a escribir esta historia. Es una novela de iniciación y aprendizaje y es, de algún modo, mi propia biografía de juventud. Es mi Flecha de oro ». Arturo Pérez-Reverte Reseñas: «Un libro de grandes balconajes literarios provisto con las honduras adecuadas para sumergirse en el terreno de la aventura, pero también de los grandes valores, donde los lugares comunes que guardamos sobre el bien y el mal se desvanecen y las líneas habituales que los separa se vuelven grises y confusas.[...] Una narración vertiginosa». Javier Ors, El Debate «Heroísmo, valentía, la seducción ante los abismos del peligro, el coraje, la camaradería, la impronta de situaciones extremas en la idiosincrasia del ser humano… Son los elementos intrínsecos de la literatura épica de Arturo Pérez-Reverte y todos ellos están presentes en Revolución.[...][Un autor] volcánico». David Barreira, El Español «Pérez-Reverte se cruza las cananas al pecho, se deja mostacho, y llega a las librerías al galope con Revolución,[donde] el lector encontrará todos los ingredientes que le han convertido en un superventas mundial». Grego Casanova, Vozpópuli «Algo te ata firmemente a un lugar al que has sobrevivido y, aunque el autor ha sobrevivido a varios, en México tuvo que hacerlo a golpe de tequila. Algo se torció en una cantina y solo el destilado apaciguó los ánimos y le permitió llegar a los 71 años que está a punto de cumplir». María Paredes, The Objective «Un clásico vivo. Algunos le han comparado con Dumas o Verne [...]. Su maestría narrativa incluye una perspectiva estoica de la existencia, una trágica conformidad con las leyes de la naturaleza, una celebración de la vida en lo que tiene de juego y riesgo».

Title: [Spanish] - La dueña Author: Isabel San Sebastián Narrator: Charo Soria Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 34 minutes Release date: October 13, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Con más de 500.000 ejemplares vendidos de sus obras, Isabel San Sebastián regresa con una aventura trepidante de coraje, familia y honor sobre el papel fundamental que las mujeres, olvidadas por las crónicas, tuvieron en la Reconquista. Año 1069 de Nuestro Señor. Cristianos y musulmanes libran una lucha sin cuartel en Hispania, divididos a su vez en reinos y taifas arrasados por disputas intestinas. En ese mundo despiadado, Auriola relata a su nieto Diego la gesta de su abuelo Ramiro, caballero de frontera caído en combate al servicio de su rey, mientras defiende sola la tierra que su esposo ganó con la espada. Abuela y nieto deberán sobrevivir a las guerras fratricidas entre Navarra, León y Castilla, salvar el legado familiar y plantar cara a la brutal acometida de los almorávides. Además de una obra que refleja en toda su crudeza y fascinación una época determinante de España, La Dueña es un emotivo relato que llega al corazón y que nos muestra cómo los grandes conflictos de la Historia afectan a miles de historias anónimas escritas con sangre y sudor.

Title: Künstlers in Paradise Author: Cathleen Schine Narrator: Jesse Vilinsky Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 32 minutes Release date: March 14, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: There was a time when the family Künstler lived in the fairy-tale city of Vienna. Circumstances transformed that fairy tale into a nightmare, and in 1939 the Künstlers found their way out of Vienna and into a new fairy tale: Los Angeles, California, United States of America. For years Mamie Künstler, ninety-three-years-old, as clever and glamorous as ever, has lived happily in her bungalow in Venice, California with her inscrutable housekeeper and her gigantic St. Bernard dog. Their tranquility is upended when Mamie’s grandson, Julian, arrives from New York City. Like many a twenty-something, he has come to seek his fortune in Hollywood. But it is 2020, the global pandemic sweeps in, and Julian’s short visit suddenly has no end in sight. Mamie was only eleven when the Künstlers escaped Vienna in 1939. They made their way, stunned and overwhelmed, to sunny, surreal Los Angeles where they joined a colony of distinguished Jewish musicians, writers and intellectuals also escaping Hitler. Now, faced with months of lockdown and a willing listener, Mamie begins to tell Julian the buried stories of her early years in Los Angeles: her escapades with eminent émigrés like Arnold Schoenberg, Christopher Isherwood, Thomas Mann. Oh, and Greta Garbo. While the pandemic cuts Julian off from the life he knows, Mamie’s tales open up a world of lives that came before him. They reveal to him just how much the past holds of the future. Cathleen Schine’s captivating and comedic twelfth novel explores exile, émigrés, movie stars, musicians, family bonds and the power of stories—both those we hand down and the ones held secretly in the heart.

Title: Hotel Laguna: A Novel Author: Nicola Harrison Narrator: Carlotta Brentan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 34 minutes Release date: June 20, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In 1942, Hazel Francis left Wichita, Kansas for California, determined to do her part for the war effort. At Douglas Aircraft, she became one of many “Rosie the Riveters,” helping construct bombers for the U. S. military. But now the war is over, men have returned to their factory jobs, and women like Hazel have been dismissed, expected to return home to become wives and mothers. Unwilling to be forced into a traditional woman’s role in the Midwest, Hazel remains on the west coast, and finds herself in the bohemian town of Laguna Beach. Desperate for work, she accepts a job as an assistant to famous artist Hanson Radcliff. Beloved by the locals for his contributions to the art scene and respected by the critics, Radcliff lives under the shadow of a decades old scandal that haunts him. Working hard to stay on her cantankerous employer’s good side, Hazel becomes a valued member of the community. She never expected to fall in love with the rhythms of life in Laguna, nor did she expect to find a kindred spirit in Jimmy, the hotel bartender whose friendship promises something more. But Hazel still wants to work with airplanes—maybe even learn to fly one someday. Torn between pursuing her dream and the dream life she has been granted, she is unsure if giving herself over to Laguna is what her heart truly wants.

Her employers know she’s not housemaid Catriona Mitchell—even though Mallory is in Catriona’s body—and Mallory is now officially an undertaker’s assistant. Dr. Duncan Gray moonlights as a medical examiner, and their latest case hits close to home. Men are dropping dead from a powerful poison, and all signs point to the grieving widows… the latest of which is Gray’s oldest sister.

Tres vidas marcadas por las consecuencias de la guerra de la Independencia y el nacimiento del estado liberal. Un momento histórico convulso. Una mujer dispuesta a salvar a su familia. ¿Cuál es el verdadero nombre de la libertad? La familia De Villalta, burgueses acomodados de Santa Cruz de Tenerife, recibe una carta preocupante y misteriosa en medio de la noche. Tiene que ver con los tristes eventos que han asolado a la familia en los últimos tiempos. Inés, la hija mediana, emprenderá un viaje a la península con la única intención de salvar a su familia. Modesto Andújar llega a Cádiz desde el cortijo de Jerez de la Frontera para estudiar Comercio, aunque su vocación es la política. En su búsqueda de lo que queda del Cádiz de las Cortes, cuna de la Constitución de 1812, se topará con Alonso Guzmán, un tipo de vida pendenciera que busca huir de su pasado. Pero lo que una vez fue irá a su encuentro, en forma de un encargo muy especial.

Title: The Glass ChAteau: A Novel Author: Stephen P. Kiernan Narrator: Raphael Corkhill Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 28 minutes Release date: June 20, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From the critically acclaimed author of Universe of Two and The Baker’s Secret, a novel of hope, healing, and the redemptive power of art, set against the turmoil of post-World War II France and inspired by the life of Marc Chagall “[A] spellbinding fable of sanctuary, art, and recovery.” — Booklist (starred review) World War II is over. Amid jubilation in the streets of France, however, there are throngs of people stunned by the recovery work ahead. Every bridge, road, and rail line, every church and school and hospital, has been destroyed. Disparate factions—from Communists, to Resistance fighters, to those who supported appeasement of the Nazis—must somehow unite and rebuild their devastated country. Asher lost his family during the war, and in revenge served as an assassin in the Resistance. Burdened by grief and guilt, he wanders through the blasted countryside, stunned by what has become of his life. When he arrives at le Château Guerin, all he seeks is a decent meal. Instead he finds a sanctuary, an oasis even though everyone there is as damaged as him. The people there are calming themselves, and recovering inch by inch, by turning sand into stained glass, and then into windows for the bombed cathedrals of France. The chateau is a volatile place, and these former warriors are as hard, and fragile, as glass. Each man carries secrets from the war too -- Asher has chosen to hide his Jewish faith so he will not be expelled by the devout Catholics who own the chateau. But all of the damaged men are guided by women of courage and affection. And Asher turns out to have a gift for making windows. As the secrets of the chateau’s residents become known one by one, they experience more heated conflict and greater challenges. Yet when they work together in common purpose, they put their fighting aside. And as Asher recovers, he finds a way to turn the recovery of broken men into the healing of a broken country. Stephen P.

Title: The French Baker's War Author: Michael Whatling Narrator: Paul Woodson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 52 minutes Release date: December 6, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Absence isn't a hole. It's a presence living inside you, eating its way out. Occupied France, 1943. Returning home from the daily hunt for the rationed ingredients necessary to keep his family pâtisserie open, André Albert finds his four year old son in the street, his wife gone, and a Jewish escapee cowering behind the display case. Without Mireille, the foundation of André's world crumbles. He desperately searches for her, but finds more trouble than answers. Lives are further jeopardized when he agrees to hide Émilie, the escapee, and a Nazi officer shows up to investigate Mireille's disappearance. André will do anything to bring his wife home, catapulting him, their son, and Émilie on a perilous journey impeded by temptation, past trauma, and stunning revelations. The French Baker's War is as relevant today for its themes of duty to strangers and sacrifice for family.

Without Mireille, the foundation of André's world crumbles. He desperately searches for her, but finds more trouble than answers. Lives are further jeopardized when he agrees to hide Émilie, the escapee, and a Nazi officer shows up to investigate Mireille's disappearance. André will do anything to bring his wife home, catapulting him, their son, and Émilie on a perilous journey impeded by temptation, past trauma, and stunning revelations. The French Baker's War is as relevant today for its themes of duty to strangers and sacrifice for family.

Title: Such a Pretty Girl Author: Tammy Greenwood Narrator: Mara Wilson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 53 minutes Release date: October 25, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Living peacefully in Vermont, Ryan Flannigan is shocked when a text from her oldest friend alerts her to a devastating news item. A controversial photo of her as a pre-teen has been found in the possession of a wealthy investor recently revealed as a pedophile and a sex trafficker—with an inscription to him from Ryan's mother on the back. Memories crowd in, providing their own distinctive pictures of her mother Fiona, an aspiring actress, and their move to the West Village in 1976. Amid the city's gritty kaleidoscope of wealth and poverty, high art, and sleazy strip clubs, Ryan is discovered and thrust into the spotlight as a promising young actress with a woman's face and a child's body. Suddenly, the safety and comfort Ryan longs for is replaced by auditions, paparazzi, and the hungry eyes of men of all ages. Forced to reexamine her childhood, Ryan begins to untangle her young fears and her mother's ambitions, and the role each played in the fraught blackout summer of 1977. Even with her movie career long behind her, Ryan and Fiona are suddenly the object of uncomfortable speculation—and Fiona demands Ryan's support. To put the past to rest, Ryan will need to face the painful truth of their relationship, and the night when everything changed.

Title: [Russian] - Если бы не ты, то бы и не я Author: вера тихонова Narrator: вера тихонова Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 46 minutes Release date: September 14, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Светлая, проникновенная книга о потере и обретении: потере близкого человека и обретении новых смыслов, которые день за днем помогают жить дальше. Автор, журналист и правозащитник Вера Тихонова, делится собственной историей проживания утраты. После смерти мужа она начала публиковать заметки в соцсетях о любви и близости, радости и боли. В них она рассказывала об их с мужем взаимоотношениях, о том, как они вместе проживали страхи и сомнения, учились слышать друг друга и ценить каждый день, проведенный вместе. Тексты начали расходиться по сети и отозвались многим людям — не только тем, кто потерял близких, но и тем, кого поразила история любви, оказавшаяся сильнее смерти. Именно на основе этих искренних, трогательных заметок и сложилась книга. «Для человека, переживающего потерю близкого, нет ничего важнее, чем иметь возможность говорить о нём. Вспоминать хорошее, горькое, разное, и утверждать через это его присутствие — он точно был, он изменил нашу жизнь, он навсегда в нашем сердце. Не у всех получается сразу найти слова и интонацию, и книга Веры Тихоновой в этом смысле может стать настоящим путеводителем — на пути от любви к боли — и обратно». — Наталья Родикова, главный редактор журнала «Домашний очаг» «Перед вами такая книга, которую должен был бы написать каждый, кто пережил любовь. Пережил — в обоих смыслах: встретил эту единственную в жизни любовь, провел с любимым человеком дни, ночи, месяцы и годы, а потом потерял. Эта книга о том, как любовь меняет человека, открывает в нем новые и прекрасные свойства. И еще эта книга о том, что любовь не проходит со смертью любимого человека, но надо иметь особый талант, чтобы не расставаться с любимым даже после того, как он ушел из этой жизни. И тогда история о потере становится историей о вечном присутствии, о даре благодарной памяти, которая продляет пребывание ушедшего человека здесь, на земле, рядом с нами». — Людмила Улицкая, писательница вера тихонова Wed, 14 Sep 2022 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/624888 thebookvoice.com 5:46:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/624888]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Hide Me among the Graves Author: Tim Powers Narrator: Fiona Hardingham Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 26 minutes Release date: November 19, 2013 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Winter 1862, London. Adelaide McKee, a former prostitute, arrives on the doorstep of veterinarian John Crawford, a man she met once seven years earlier. Their brief meeting produced a child who, until now, had been presumed dead. McKee has learned that the girl lives—but that her life and soul are in mortal peril from a vampiric ghost. But this is no ordinary spirit; the bloodthirsty wraith is none other than John Polidori, the onetime physician to the mad, bad, and dangerous Romantic poet Lord Byron. Both McKee and Crawford have mysterious histories with creatures like Polidori, and their child is a prize the malevolent spirit covets dearly. Polidori is also the late uncle and supernatural muse to poet Christina Rossetti and her brother, painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti. When she was just fourteen, Christina unwittingly brought Polidori's curse upon her family. But the curse bestowed unexpected blessings as well, inspiring both Christina and Gabriel's work. But when Polidori resurrects Dante's dead wife—turning her into a vampire—and threatens other family members, Christina and Dante agree they must destroy their monstrous uncle and break the spell, even if it means the end of their creative powers. Determined to save their daughter, McKee and Crawford join forces with the Rossettis, and soon these wildly mismatched allies are plunged into a supernatural London underworld whose existence goes beyond their wildest imaginings. Ultimately, each of these disparate individuals—the sensitive poet, the tortured painter, the straitlaced animal doctor, the reformed prostitute, and even their Artful Dodger–like young daughter—must choose between the banality and constraints of human life and the unholy immortality that Polidori offers. Sweeping from the mansions of London's high society to its grimy slums, the elegant salons of the West End to the pre-Roman catacombs beneath St. Paul's Cathedral, Hide Me among the Graves blends the historical and the supernatural in a dazzling, edge-of-your-seat thrill ride—a modern horror story with a Victorian twist.

Title: Women of the Post Author: Joshunda Sanders Narrator: Robin Miles Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 50 minutes Release date: July 18, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “What a beautifully imagined and important narrative. Sanders’ clear-eyed and powerful writing made this a hard one to stop reading!” —Jacqueline Woodson, National Book Award-Winning Author "This is a novel to cherish and share. And this is a history to sing about and affirm -- to proclaim.” — Honorée Fanonne Jeffers, New York Times Bestselling author of The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois, an Oprah Book Club Novel Named a Most Anticipated Book of Summer by Ms. Magazine, PopSugar, Lambda Literary, and many more! Inspired by true events, Women of the Post brings to life the heroines who proudly served in the all-Black battalion of the Women’s Army Corps in WWII, finding purpose in their mission and lifelong friendship. 1944, New York City. Judy Washington is tired of having to work at the Bronx Slave Market, cleaning white women’s houses for next to nothing. She dreams of a bigger life, but with her husband fighting overseas, it’s up to her and her mother to earn enough for food and rent. When she’s recruited to join the Women’s Army Corps—offering a steady paycheck and the chance to see the world—Judy jumps at the opportunity. During training, Judy becomes fast friends with the other women in her unit—Stacy, Bernadette and Mary Alyce—who all come from different cities and circumstances. Under Second Officer Charity Adams's leadership, they receive orders to sort over one million pieces of mail in England, becoming the only unit of Black women to serve overseas during WWII. The women work diligently, knowing that they're reuniting soldiers with their loved ones through their letters. However, their work becomes personal when Mary Alyce discovers a backlogged letter addressed to Judy. Told through the alternating perspectives of Judy, Charity and Mary Alyce, Women of the Post is an unforgettable story of perseverance, female friendship and self-discovery. "A moving and compelling tribute to the lives and legacy of Black women in the American military during World War II that feels especially poignant in this moment." — The Boston Globe Joshunda Sanders Tue, 18 Jul 2023 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/624511 thebookvoice.com 10:50:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/624511]]> to listen full audiobooks.

With ambitions to further his career, he seeks connections in the county's high society. He is soon preyed upon by a local member of parliament to guarantee a substantial loan, which Mark in a moment of weakness agrees to—despite knowing the man is a notorious debtor—and which brings him to the brink of ruin. He must face the awful reality this loss will bring his family. Meanwhile, Mark's sister, Lucy, is deeply in love with Lord Lufton, the son of the lofty Lady Lufton.

He must face the awful reality this loss will bring his family. Meanwhile, Mark's sister, Lucy, is deeply in love with Lord Lufton, the son of the lofty Lady Lufton. Lord Lufton has proposed, but Lady Lufton is against the marriage, preferring that her son choose the coldly beautiful Griselda Grantly. The novel will conclude with four happy marriages, including one involving Doctor Thorne, the hero of the preceding book in the Chronicles of Barsetshire series. One of Trollope's most popular novels, Framley Parsonage depicts nineteenth-century country life beautifully, crafted with acute insight into human nature.

Title: Salambo: High Priestess of Ancient Carthage Author: Gustave Flaubert Narrator: Fred Williams Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 8 minutes Release date: September 28, 2009 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Beyond the gardens of Hamilcar’s palace, beyond the walls of Carthage, the Roman hordes stood waiting to annihilate the noblest city of ancient Africa. Within the city, all was madness—the houses were filled with the screams of women and the streets teemed with terrified men. The veil of the goddess Tanit, sacred to Carthage, had fallen to Matho, Roman soldier-of-fortune. But when Salambo, the exquisite daughter of Hamilcar, rode into the Roman camp, into Matho’s tent, to exchange her beauty for the veil of Carthage—he would throw away victory and forsake his army, his nation, and his soul for the price of her body. Set during the historical struggle between Rome and Carthage, Flaubert’s novel offers a richly detailed portrait of the lives and rites of two ancient kingdoms moved by their allegiances to very different gods.

Title: The Fifth Queen: The Fifth Queen, Privy Seal, and The Fifth Queen Crowned Series: Part of The Fifth Queen Trilogy Author: Ford Madox Ford Narrator: Ralph Cosham Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 18 hours 45 minutes Release date: June 22, 2011 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Ford Maddox Ford’s masterful trilogy of historical fiction centers on Katharine Howard, a young girl of a proud, noble, and impoverished family who catches the jaded eye of Henry VIII and becomes his controversial fifth queen. In book one, The Fifth Queen, Katharine arrives at the king’s court to find its dimly lit corridors vibrating with corruption and fear as unscrupulous courtiers hungry for power maneuver for advantage. Clever, beautiful, and outspoken, Katharine soon becomes caught in a web of intrigue and romance as she fights for political and religious change. In book two, Privy Seal, Katharine becomes locked in a vicious battle with Thomas Cromwell, the Lord Privy Seal, and continues her battle for change. Finally, in book three, The Fifth Queen Crowned, Katharine once again becomes caught in a web of court intrigues. She believes strongly in a restoration of the Catholic faith, but this conviction has made her vicious enemies, for a return to the Church of Rome would mean reinstating the lands and riches taken from the church under Henry’s reign. Here, Katharine’s fatal combat with Thomas Cromwell reaches its stunning conclusion. Ford saw the past as an integral part of the present experience and understanding. His sharply etched vision of the court of Henry VIII echoes aspects of Edwardian England as it explores the pervading influence of power, lies, fear, and anxiety on people’s lives.

Title: Middlemarch Author: George Eliot Narrator: Nadia May Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 31 hours 58 minutes Release date: June 1, 2011 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Dorothea Brooke is a thoughtful and idealistic young woman determined to make a difference with her life. Enamored of a man whom she believes is setting this example, she unwittingly traps herself into a loveless marriage. Her parallel is Tertius Lydgate, a visionary young doctor from the city, whose passionate ambition to spread the new science of medicine is complicated by his love for the wrong woman. Featuring a panoply of complex, brilliantly drawn characters from every walk of life, George Eliot's masterpiece is a rich and teeming portrait of provincial life in Victorian England. Yet her characters' struggles to retain their moral integrity in the midst of temptation and tragedy are strikingly modern in their painful ironies. The incomparable psychological insight of Middlemarch was pivotal in the shaping of twentieth-century literary realism.

Title: Middlemarch Author: George Eliot Narrator: Nadia May Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 31 hours 58 minutes Release date: June 1, 2011 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Dorothea Brooke is a thoughtful and idealistic young woman determined to make a difference with her life. Enamored of a man whom she believes is setting this example, she unwittingly traps herself into a loveless marriage. Her parallel is Tertius Lydgate, a visionary young doctor from the city, whose passionate ambition to spread the new science of medicine is complicated by his love for the wrong woman. Featuring a panoply of complex, brilliantly drawn characters from every walk of life, George Eliot's masterpiece is a rich and teeming portrait of provincial life in Victorian England. Yet her characters' struggles to retain their moral integrity in the midst of temptation and tragedy are strikingly modern in their painful ironies. The incomparable psychological insight of Middlemarch was pivotal in the shaping of twentieth-century literary realism. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/624218 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/624218]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Decameron: or Ten Days’ Entertainment Author: Giovanni Boccaccio Narrator: Frederick Davidson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 29 hours 58 minutes Release date: March 5, 2009 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In 1348, the year of the Black Death, seven ladies and three gentlemen escape the dying, corrupt city of Florence to pass ten days in the hills of Fiesole telling each other stories. Reveling in their enchanted dreamworld of beauty and luxury, they take turns playing king or queen for the day, with the designated ruler naming the stipulations for that day's story. In contrast to their idyllic, gentile environment, the stories they tell are marked by an intense, cynical realism and feature ordinary people of less privileged classes. Boccaccio brings these stories alive with the authentic language of the different social classes and a frank, realistic handling of character. His satire often bites deep, yet he embraces evil and holiness alike with sympathy and tolerance, leaving guilty characters to condemn themselves. Like Dante's Divine Comedy, The Decameron is a monumental work of medieval pre-Renaissance literature.

Title: The Women: A Novel Author: T.C. Boyle Narrator: Grover Gardner Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 18 hours 35 minutes Release date: February 10, 2009 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 4 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Having brought to life eccentric cereal king John Harvey Kellogg in The Road to Wellville and sex researcher Alfred Kinsey in The Inner Circle, T. C. Boyle now turns his fictional sights on an even more colorful and outlandish character: Frank Lloyd Wright. Boyle’s account of Wright’s life, as told through the experiences of the four women who loved him, blazes with his trademark wit and invention. Wright’s life was one long howling struggle against the bonds of convention, whether aesthetic, social, moral, or romantic. He never did what was expected and despite the overblown scandals surrounding his amours and very public divorces and the financial disarray that dogged him throughout his career, he never let anything get in the way of his larger-than-life appetites and visions. Wright’s triumphs and defeats were always tied to the women he loved: the Montenegrin beauty Olgivanna Milanoff; the passionate Southern belle Maud Miriam Noel; the spirited Mamah Cheney, tragically killed; and his young first wife, Kitty Tobin. In The Women, T. C. Boyle’s protean voice captures these very different women and, in doing so, creates a masterful ode to the creative life in all its complexity and grandeur. T.C.

Title: Wives and Daughters Author: Elizabeth Gaskell Narrator: Wanda Mccaddon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 25 hours 41 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Set in nineteenth-century England, Wives and Daughters centers on the story of the youthful Molly Gibson, raised by her doctor father. When he remarries, a new stepsister enters Molly’s quiet life, the loveable but worldly and troubling Cynthia. The narrative traces the development of the two girls into womanhood within the gossiping and watchful society of Hollingford. Wives and Daughters, generally thought to be Elizabeth Gaskell’s finest achievement, is far more than a nostalgic evocation of village life. It offers an ironic critique of mid-Victorian society through the themes of Darwinism, the role of women, and the concept of Englishness.

Title: The Lion of St. Mark Author: G.A. Henty Narrator: Geoffrey Howard Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 27 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Francis, an English lad, lives in fourteenth-century Venice, during a period when the city’s strength and splendor were put to the severest of tests by a war with Hungary, Padua, and Genoa. This young hero displays wisdom and manliness in the face of conflict, and such traits carry him safely through an atmosphere of intrigue, crime, and bloodshed. He contributes largely to the Venetian victories at Porto d’Anzo and Chioggia, and he even finds himself drawn into a little romance. “I have laid my story in the time not of the triumphs of Venice but of her hardest struggle for existence—when she defended herself successfully against the coalition of Hungary, Padua, and Genoa—for never at any time were the virtues of Venice, her steadfastness, her patriotism, and her willingness to make all sacrifice for her independence more brilliantly shown. The historical portion of the story is drawn from Hazlitt’s History of the Republic of Venice, and with it I have woven the adventures of an English boy endowed with a full share of that energy and pluck which, more than any other qualities, have made the British Empire the greatest the world ever saw.”—G.

The historical portion of the story is drawn from Hazlitt’s History of the Republic of Venice, and with it I have woven the adventures of an English boy endowed with a full share of that energy and pluck which, more than any other qualities, have made the British Empire the greatest the world ever saw.”—G.

Title: The Spirit of the Border Series: #3 of The Ohio River Trilogy Author: Zane Grey Narrator: Robert Morris Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 50 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The American frontier in the 1700s produced some men of utter ruthlessness, and Jim Girty was one of the worst. Living among the Delaware Indians in the Ohio Valley, Girty and his brothers incited acts of savagery and war against the white settlers. One of Jim Girty’s targets was the Village of Peace, a settlement of Christian Indians who had been converted by Moravian missionaries.

Title: Seventh Son Series: #1 of The Tales of Alvin Maker Series Author: Orson Scott Card Narrator: Gabrielle De Cuir, Stefan Rudnicki, Scott Brick, Stephen Hoye Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 7 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Using the lore and the folk magic of the men and women who settled a continent, and the beliefs of the tribes who were here before them, Card has created an alternate frontier America; a world where a particular kind of magic really works and where that magic has colored the entire history of the colonies. Charms and beseechings, hexes and potions, all have a place in the lives of the people of this world. 'Knacks' abound: dowsers find water, sparks set fires, blacksmiths speak to their iron, the second sight warns of dangers to come, and a torch can read the heart-fire of anyone within reach. It is into this world, in a roadhouse on the track westward, amid the deep wood where the Red man still holds sway, that a very special child is born. Young Alvin is the seventh son of a seventh son, born while his six brothers all still lived. Such a birth is a powerful magic; such a boy is destined to become something great—perhaps even a Maker. But no Maker has been born for many a century, and there is no lore to tell how the Maker's knack works. At the age of six Alvin doesn't seem to have any special talent at all, unless it's the knack he has of working with stone and wood, crafting tools and ornaments; unless it's his ability to paint a hex just right; unless it's the way he has with animals… Yes, Alvin is something special; and even in the loving safety of his home, dark forces reach out to destroy him. Something will do anything to keep Alvin from growing up.

Title: The Last of the Plainsmen Author: Zane Grey Narrator: Adams Morgan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 29 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “Hezd rope the devil and tie him down...if the lasso didn’t burn,” it was said of “Buffalo Jones,” one of the last of the famous plainsmen who trod the trails of the Old West. Killing was repulsive to him and the passion of his life was to capture wild beasts alive. When he saw that the extinction of the buffalo was inevitable, he labored for ten years pursuing, capturing and taming the noble beasts, for which the West gave him fame and the name Preserver of the American Bison. In this thrilling story of a hunting trip with Jones, Zane Grey speaks firsthand of the great man’s courage and prowess; how he roped the ferocious cougar and took it, clawing and spitting, back to camp; how he nearly captured White King, the glorious leader of a herd of wild mustangs; and how the whole party made camp under the aurora borealis and hunted polar wolves. “I want to show the color and beauty of those painted cliffs and the long, brown-matted bluebell-dotted aisles in the grand forests; I want to give a suggestion of the tang of the dry, cool air; and particularly, I want to throw a little light upon the life and nature of that strange character and remarkable man, Buffalo Jones.”—Zane Grey Zane Grey Sun, 01 Jan 2006 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/623928 thebookvoice.com 7:29:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/623928]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Dubliners Author: James Joyce Narrator: Frederick Davidson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 24 minutes Release date: January 1, 2006 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: James Joyce paints vivid portraits of the poorer classes of Dublin in a collection of stories whose larger purpose, he said, was to depict a 'moral history of Ireland.' From the first story, in which a young boy encounters death to the haunting final story involving the middle-aged Gabriel, the book gives an unflinchingly realistic portrayal of the author's own 'dear, dirty Dublin' in the early twentieth century. Joyce's first published work in prose, this brilliant study is by turns bawdy, witty, and tragic. Said Joyce of the work: 'I am trying...to give people some kind of intellectual pleasure or spiritual enjoyment by converting the bread of everyday life into something that has a permanent artistic life of its own…Do you see that man who has just skipped out of the way of the tram? Consider, if he had been run over, how significant every act of his would at once become.'

The Blacksmith’s Daughter follows the life of the eldest daughter, Gül, who is growing up in rural Turkey in the 1940s and ’50s.

Title: The Settlement Author: Jock Serong Narrator: Lewis Fitz-Gerald Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 28 minutes Release date: September 1, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In The Settlement, Jock Serong reimagines in urgent, compelling prose the ill-fated exploits of George Augustus Robinson at the settlement of Wybalenna—a venture whose blinkered, self-interested cruelty might stand for the colonial enterprise itself. On the windswept point of an island at the edge of van Diemen's Land, the Commandant huddles with a small force of white men and women. He has gathered together, under varying degrees of coercion and duress, the last of the Tasmanians, or so he believes. His purpose is to save them—from a number of things, but most pressingly from the murderous intent of the pastoral settlers on their country. The orphans Whelk and Pipi, fighting for their survival against the malevolent old man they know as the Catechist, watch as almost everything about this situation proves resistant to the Commandant's will. The wind, the spread of disease, the strange black dog that floats in on the prow of a wrecked ship… But above all the Chief, the leader of the exiles, before whom the Commandant performs a perverse, intimate dance of violence and betrayal. ‘An extraordinarily vivid imagining of one of the most significant encounters in Australian history.' AMANDA LOHREY ‘Grips from the first page. It's unsentimental, truthful and profound – all in a milieu effortlessly imagined.'

He has gathered together, under varying degrees of coercion and duress, the last of the Tasmanians, or so he believes.

Title: [Spanish] - Terra Nostra Author: Carlos Fuentes Narrator: Noé Velázquez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 41 hours 53 minutes Release date: September 22, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A pesar de que Felipe II, el soberano más poderoso del planeta, se ha retirado a causa de su enfermedad, cuando le hablan de un nuevo mundo sin fe, se da cuenta de que su misión no puede terminar sin llevar la cruz a aquellas tierras desconocidas. Terra Nostra es la novela más extensa y compleja del escritor mexicano Carlos Fuentes, publicada por primera vez en 1975 y ganadora del premio Rómulo Gallegos en 1977. Sin duda uno de los títulos fundamentales de la narrativa hispánica contemporánea, un vasto viaje por el tiempo de la España de los Reyes Católicos que devela el ejercicio del poder trasplantado a las colonias. Premio Xavier Villaurrutia y Premio Rómulo Gallegos. Construyamos el infierno en la tierra para asegurar la necesidad de un cielo que nos compense del horror de nuestras vidas. Felipe II, el 'Defensor de la Fe', es el soberano más poderoso del orbe. Largos años ha luchado contra judíos, musulmanes y protestantes, y sus súbditos han sufrido excesivos impuestos, pestes, intolerancia... Su reinado agoniza en tanto nace un mundo diferente: los castillos son sustituidos por las ciudades, los campesinos por los villanos, los príncipes y reyes por los burgueses; falsos profetas dominan los caminos y hablan de un renacimiento. Felipe está cansado y enfermo; el arrepentimiento de sus excesos lo lleva a recluirse al lugar que ha mandado construir para ser su última morada: el Escorial. Entonces aparecen tres jóvenes misteriosos con una cruz encarnada en sus espaldas; uno de ellos habla de un mundo nuevo, un Edén con bellas ciudades, volcanes y pirámides, donde presiden la crueldad, el dolor y la muerte junto a fantásticos seres sobrenaturales como la señora de las mariposas. El Defensor de la Fe no puede descansar aún: está obligado a llevar la cruz a esos infieles... podrá gobernar, al fin, un mundo justo y libre? La crítica ha opinado: 'Terra Nostra es quizá el paso más ambicioso de Carlos Fuentes en el camino experimental respecto de la novela.' -Georgina García Gutiérrez, especialista en la obra de Carlos Fuentes y autora de Los disfraces, la obra mestiza de Carlos Fuentes- 'Leer esta novela monumental será como subir a la pirámide de España y México, ese edificio que ya no es nacional ni colonial, sino que es un monumento de la lectura capaz de decirnos no quiénes somos, sino quiénes podríamos ser.' -Julio Ortega- Carlos Fuentes Thu, 22 Sep 2022 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622895 thebookvoice.com 41:53:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622895]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Beach at Summerly: A Novel Author: Beatriz Williams Narrator: Saskia Maarleveld Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 54 minutes Release date: June 27, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: ''There are few more skilled practitioners of the craft of summer fiction than Beatriz Williams.'' — The New York Times Book Review A ravishing summer read from New York Times bestseller Beatriz Williams, sweeping readers back to a mid-century New England rich with secrets and Cold War intrigue. June 1946. As the residents of Winthrop Island prepare for the first summer season after the sacrifice of war, a glamorous new figure moves into the guest cottage at Summerly, the idyllic seaside estate of the wealthy Peabody family. To Emilia Winthrop, daughter of Summerly’s year-round caretaker and a descendant of the island’s settlers, Olive Rainsford opens a window into a world of shining possibility. While Emilia spent the war years caring for her incapacitated mother, Olive traveled the world, married fascinating men, and involved herself in political causes. She’s also the beloved aunt of the two surviving Peabody sons, Amory and Shep, with whom Emilia has a tangled romantic history. As the summer wears on, Emilia develops a deep rapport with Olive, who urges her to leave the island for a life of adventure, while romance blossoms with the sturdy and honorable Shep. But the heady promise of Peabody patronage is blown apart by the arrival of Sumner Fox, an FBI agent who demands Emilia’s help to capture a Soviet agent who’s transmitting vital intelligence on the West’s atomic weapon program from somewhere inside the Summerly estate. April 1954. Eight years later, Summerly is boarded up and Emilia has rebuilt her shattered life as a professor at Wellesley College, when shocking news arrives from Washington—the traitor she helped convict is about to be swapped for an American spy imprisoned in the Soviet Union, but with a mysterious condition only Emilia can fulfill. A reluctant Emilia is summoned to CIA headquarters, where she’s forced to confront the harrowing consequences of her actions that fateful summer, and a choice that could destroy the Peabody family—and Emilia’s chance for redemption—all over again. ''Grand and gripping...shot through with suspense, romance, and glorious, beach-laden locales.

Es ist die merkwürdige Geschichte des Titularrats Aksenti Iwanow Poprischtschin. Er ist ein kleiner, boshafter Beamter im Staatsdienst. Sein grauer Alltag lässt ihn jedoch zunehmend immer unglücklicher werden, sein Beruf ödet ihn an, unter seinem Chef und unter seiner Bedeutungslosigkeit leidet er.

Title: The Buccaneers: A Novel Author: Marion Mainwaring, Edith Wharton Narrator: Carol Monda Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 57 minutes Release date: November 15, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Edith Wharton's spellbinding final novel tells a story of love in the gilded age that crosses the boundaries of society—now an original series on AppleTV+! “Brave, lively, engaging...a fairy-tale novel, miraculouly returned to life.”—The New York Times Book Review Set in the 1870s, the same period as Wharton's The Age of Innocence, The Buccaneers is about five wealthy American girls denied entry into New York Society because their parents' money is too new. At the suggestion of their clever governess, the girls sail to London, where they marry lords, earls, and dukes who find their beauty charming—and their wealth extremely useful. After Wharton's death in 1937, The Christian Science Monitor said, 'If it could have been completed, The Buccaneers would doubtless stand among the richest and most sophisticated of Wharton's novels.' Now, with wit and imagination, Marion Mainwaring has finished the story, taking her cue from Wharton's own synopsis. It is a novel any Wharton fan will celebrate and any romantic reader will love. This is the richly engaging story of Nan St. George and Guy Thwarte, an American heiress and an English aristocrat, whose love breaks the rules of both their societies.

Title: The Secrets of Hartwood Hall: The mysterious and atmospheric gothic novel for fans of Stacey Hall Author: Katie Lumsden Narrator: Olivia Vinall Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 54 minutes Release date: March 30, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. It's 1852 and Margaret Lennox, a young widow, is offered a position as governess at Hartwood Hall. She quickly accepts, hoping this isolated country house will allow her to leave her past behind. Cut off from the village, Margaret soon starts to feel there's something odd about her new home, despite her growing fondness for her bright, affectionate pupil, Louis. There are strange figures in the dark, tensions between servants and an abandoned east wing. Even stranger is the local gossip surrounding Mrs Eversham, Louis's widowed mother, who is deeply distrusted in the village. Margaret finds distraction in a forbidden relationship with the gardener, Paul. But despite his efforts to reassure her, Margaret is certain that everyone here has something hide. And as Margaret's own past threatens to catch up with her, she must learn to trust her instincts before it's too late... The Secrets of Hartwood Hall is a chilling gothic mystery, and an authentic and atmospheric love letter to Victorian fiction. 'I loved this fresh take on the gothic genre.

Title: House of Odysseus Author: Claire North Narrator: Catrin Walker-Booth Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 13 minutes Release date: August 22, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: This "powerful, fresh, and unflinching" reimagining from the award-winning author of the Penelope trilogy breathes life into ancient myth and gives voice to the women who stand defiant in a world ruled by ruthless men (Jennifer Saint). On the isle of Ithaca, queen Penelope maintains a delicate balance of power. Many years ago, her husband Odysseus sailed to war with Troy and never came home. In his absence, Penelope uses all her cunning to keep the peace—a peace that is shattered by the return of Orestes, King of Mycenae, and his sister Elektra. Orestes' hands are stained with his mother's blood. Not so long ago, the son of Agamemnon took Queen Clytemnestra's life on Ithaca's sands. Now, wracked with guilt, he is slowly losing his mind. But a king cannot be seen to be weak, and Elektra has brought him to Ithaca to keep him safe from the ambitious men of Mycenae. Penelope knows destruction will follow in his wake as surely as the furies circle him. His uncle Menelaus, the battle-hungry king of Sparta, longs for Orestes' throne—and if he can seize it, no one will be safe from his violent whims. Trapped between two mad kings, Penelope fights to keep her home from being crushed by a war that stretches from Mycenae and Sparta to the summit of Mount Olympus itself. Her only allies are Elektra, desperate to protect her brother, and Helen of Troy, Menelaus' wife. And watching over them all is the goddess Aphrodite, who has plans of her own. Each woman has a secret. And their secrets will shape the world.

Title: Seraphina's Song Author: Kathryn Gauci Narrator: Claire Bloom, Stefan Rudnicki Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 9 minutes Release date: June 7, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “If I knew then, dear reader, what I know now, I should have turned on my heels and left. But no, instead, I stood there transfixed on the beautiful image of Seraphina. In that moment my fate was sealed.” Dionysos Mavroulis is a man without a future: a man who embraces destiny and risks everything for love. A refugee from Asia Minor, he escapes Smyrna in 1922 disguised as an old woman. Alienated and plagued by feelings of remorse, he spirals into poverty and seeks solace in the hashish dens around Piraeus. Hitting rock bottom, he meets Aleko, an accomplished bouzouki player. Recognizing in the impoverished refugee a rare musical talent, Aleko offers to teach him the bouzouki. Dionysos’s hope for the future is further fueled when he meets Seraphina—the singer with the voice of a nightingale—at Papazoglou’s Taverna. From the moment he lays eyes on her, his fate is sealed. Set in Piraeus in the 1920’s and 30’s, Seraphina’s Song is a haunting and compelling story of hope and despair, and of a love stronger than death. “Cine noir meets Greek tragedy, played out with a Depression era realism.”—Discovering Diamonds Kathryn Gauci Tue, 07 Jun 2022 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622394 thebookvoice.com 4:9:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622394]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Praying with the Enemy Author: Steven T. Collis Narrator: Traber Burns Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 42 minutes Release date: June 7, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Based on the true story of an American POW during the Korean War and a North Korean soldier who become unlikely allies united in their shared faith in God during a daring escape to freedom  When his jet malfunctions, Captain Ward Millar makes a last-second decision to eject over enemy territory in North Korea before his plane explodes. His parachute barely opens before impact, saving his life, but the hard landing snaps both of his ankles. Unable to walk, Captain Millar is easily captured by North Korean and Chinese soldiers. His captors interrogate, threaten, and starve him in an attempt to extract strategic wartime information. He stalls the inevitable by feeding the enemy false information, but it’s only a matter of time before they discover his lies. Millar plots a bold, seemingly impossible plan to escape. He knows it will take a miracle to pull it off, but he’s not sure if praying to a higher power would even work. He wishes he had faith like his wife, whose firm belief in God can move mountains. When Barbara Millar receives a telegram informing her that her husband is missing in action behind enemy lines, her family and friends accept the grim reality that Ward is almost certainly dead. Yet Barbara, a woman of deep and sustaining faith, refuses to believe it. She still feels his presence and their connection as strongly as ever. She is certain her husband will return, but she doesn’t know how the war and his ordeal might have changed him. North Korean soldier Kim Jae Pil was raised to believe in the power of prayer, but because the Communist Party kills or imprisons any religious group they perceive as a threat to their power and influence, Kim and his family must keep their Christian faith secret. He has been anxious to return to his family and then escape across the border to South Korea. With Millar still imprisoned and unable to walk, and the North Korean army becoming increasingly suspicious of Kim’s actions, it seems impossible that either man will find the freedom they so desperately desire. But when these wartime foes cross paths, they find in each other an unlikely ally. Despite speaking different languages, Millar and Kim find common ground in their fragile faith and must rely on each other to undertake a daring escape. Praying with the Enemy is a story of courage, determination, unlikely friendship, and enduring faith. Steven T.

As she nears an intersection, a mysterious drifter with grimy thumbs and smudged cheeks and eyes as dark as a raven's wing stops to ask her the way. She could turn left or cross over. But she does not. 'Go as a river,' he whispers. So begins a mezmerising story that unfolds over a tumultuous lifetime as Torie begins to absorb and follow his words. Gathering all the pieces of her small and extraordinary life, spinning through the eddies of desire, heartbreak and betrayal, she will arrive at a single rocky decision that will change her life for ever. 'Completely spellbinding, vivid, and luminous' JANE GREEN 'Go As a River delivers so very much: the tenderness and curiosity of young love, the eternal pangs of loss, the brutality of racism, the sustaining power of nature and the miracle of a mother's love. Suffused with wisdom and compassion, this shattering testimony to life is to be savored, treasured, shared' MEG WAITE CLAYTON, author of The Postmistress of Paris 'Shelley Read's lyrical voice is a force of nature. Tragic, uplifting and completely unforgettable' BONNIE GARMUS, author of LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY ©2023 Shelley Read (P)2023 Penguin Audio https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622352 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622352]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Russian] - Гардемарины, вперед! Закон парности Author: нина соротокина Narrator: юлия тархова Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 5 minutes Release date: August 31, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Россия, XVIII век. Трое воспитанников навигацкой школы — Александр Белов, Алеша Корсак и Никита Оленев — по стечению обстоятельств оказались вовлечены в дела государственной важности. На карту поставлено многое: и жизнь, и любовь, и честь российской короны. Друзья мечтали о приключениях и славе, и вот теперь им на деле предстоит испытать себя и сыграть в опасную игру с великими мира сего, окунувшись в пучину дворцовых интриг и политических заговоров. И какие бы испытания ни посылала им судьба, гардемарины всегда остаются верны дружбе и следуют своему главному девизу: «Жизнь Родине, честь — никому!» Захватывающий сюжет, полный опасных приключений и неожиданных поворотов, разворачивается на фоне одной из самых интересных эпох российской истории, во времена правления императрицы Елизаветы, дочери Петра Великого. В 1988–1992 гг. романы о гардемаринах были экранизированы Светланой Дружининой и имели оглушительный успех, а «русские мушкетеры» Дмитрий Харатьян, Сергей Жигунов и Владимир Шевельков снискали всеобщую любовь зрителей. нина соротокина Wed, 31 Aug 2022 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622187 thebookvoice.com 15:5:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/622187]]> to listen full audiobooks.

The band of gentlemen who assist him are the only ones who know his secret identity. He is known by his symbol, a simple flower, the scarlet pimpernel. Opening at the New Theatre in London's West End on January 5, 1905, the play became a favorite of British audiences, eventually playing more than 2,000 performances.

Title: The Vienna Writers Circle Author: J. C. Maetis Narrator: Michael Crouch, Charles Constant Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 24 minutes Release date: February 14, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A gripping and powerful tale of resilience and courage set in Vienna on the brink of WWII, as two members of Freud’s Circle try to keep themselves and their loved ones safe as the SS closes in. Spring, 1938: Café Mozart in the heart of Vienna is beloved by its clientele, including cousins Mathias Kraemer and Johannes Namal. The two writers are as close as brothers. They are also members of Freud’s Circle—a unique group of the famed psychiatrist’s friends and acquaintances who once gathered regularly at the bright and airy café to talk about books and ideas over coffee and pastries. But dark days are looming. With Hitler’s annexation of Austria, Nazi edicts governing daily life become stricter and more punitive. Now Hitler has demanded that the “hidden Jews” of Vienna be tracked down, and Freud’s Circle has been targeted. The SS aims to use old group photos to identify Jewish intellectuals and subversives. With the vise tightening around them, Mathias and Johannes’s only option appears to be hiding in plain sight, using assumed names and identities to evade detection, aware that discovery would mean consignment to a camp or execution. Faced with stark and desperate choices, Mathias, Johannes, their families and friends all find their loyalties and courage tested in unimaginable ways. But despite betrayal, heartache and imprisonment, hope remains, and with it, the determination to keep those they love alive, and Mathias and Johannes at the same time discovering that what originally condemned them—their writing—might also be their salvation.

Welcome to England, 1809. London is a violent, intolerant city, exhausted by years of war, beset by soaring prices and political tensions. By day, John Church preaches on the radical possibilities of love to a multicultural, working-class congregation in Southwark. But by night, he crosses the river to the secret and glamorous world of a gay molly house on Vere Street, where ordinary men reinvent themselves as funny, flirtatious drag queens and rent boys cavort with labourers and princes alike. There, Church becomes the first minister to offer marriages between men, at enormous risk. Everything changes when Church meets the unworldly and free-thinking Ned, part of a group of African activist abolitionists who attend his chapel. The two bond over their broken childhoods, and Church falls obsessively in love with Ned's tender nature. In a fragile, colourful secret world under threat, Church's love for Ned takes him to the edge of reason.

The last sigh of summer before the war. As Australian journalist Charlotte ‘Charlie' James alights at the Gare du Nord, ready to start her role as correspondent for The Times, Paris is in turmoil as talk of war becomes increasingly strident. Charlie is chasing her first big scoop, needing to prove to her boss that she can do this job as well as, if not better than, her male counterparts. And the best way to forge the necessary contacts quickly is to make the well-connected expats, Lord and Lady Ashworth, her business.

Title: Dragon’s Teeth Series: #3 of The Lanny Budd Novels Author: Upton Sinclair Narrator: Bronson Pinchot Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 23 hours 46 minutes Release date: May 31, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: An American in Germany fights against the rising tide of Nazi terror in this monumental saga of twentieth-century world history. In the wake of the 1929 stock market crash, Lanny Budd’s financial acumen and his marriage into great wealth enable him to continue the lifestyle he has always enjoyed. But the devastation the collapse has wrought on ordinary citizens has only strengthened Lanny’s socialist ideals—much to the chagrin of his heiress wife, Irma, a confirmed capitalist. In Germany to visit relatives, Lanny encounters a disturbing atmosphere of hatred and jingoism. His concern over the growing popularity of the Nazi Party escalates when he meets Adolf Hitler, the group’s fanatical leader, and the members of his inner circle. But Lanny’s gravest fear is the threat a national socialist government poses to the German Jewish family of Hansi, the musician husband of Lanny’s sister, Bess—a threat that will impel the international art dealer to risk his wealth, his future, even his life, in a courageous attempt to rescue his loved ones from a terrible fate. Winner of the 1943 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, Dragon’s Teeth brilliantly captures the nightmarish march toward the Second World War. An astonishing mix of history, adventure, and romance, the Lanny Budd Novels are a testament to the breathtaking scope of Upton Sinclair’s vision and his singular talents as a storyteller.

Title: 1812: The Rivers of War Series: #1 of Trail of Glory Author: Eric Flint Narrator: Franklin Pierson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 22 hours 29 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In this alternate history of the American frontier and the Jacksonian era, a small change takes place in the Battle of the Horseshoe Bend during the War of 1812. What results is a cascade of new developments that becomes an avalanche. In our world, Ensign Sam Houston, just turned 21, led the charge on the creek barricade in that battle and almost died from a terrible wound that took him a year to recover from. In this world, his wound is minor, so he is able to continue fighting the British—and develop his close relationship with Andrew Jackson much sooner. Along with a radical Scots-Irish immigrant in the U.S. Army, Patrick Driscoll—one of “the Men of ’98”—Houston organizes a defense of the U.S. Capitol that prevents the British from destroying it and makes him a national hero. He and Driscoll then play a central role in the defense of New Orleans under Jackson’s command. They change the course of that battle in ways that will, over time, transform the relationship between the United States, the Indian tribes of the south, and the slaves brought over from Africa.

Title: The Tiffany Girls: A Novel Author: Shelley Noble Narrator: Caroline Hewitt Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 55 minutes Release date: May 9, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 3 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: New York Times bestselling author Shelley Noble wows with a gripping historical novel about the real-life “Tiffany Girls,” a fascinating and largely unknown group of women artists behind Tiffany’s most legendary glassworks. It’s 1899, and Manhattan is abuzz. Louis Comfort Tiffany, famous for his stained-glass windows, is planning a unique installation at the Paris World’s Fair, the largest in history. At their fifth-floor studio on Fourth Avenue, the artists of the Women’s Division of the Tiffany Glass Company are already working longer shifts to finish the pieces that Tiffany hopes will prove that he is the world’s finest artist in glass. Known as the “Tiffany Girls,” these women are responsible for much of the design and construction of Tiffany’s extraordinary glassworks, but none receive credit. Emilie Pascal, daughter of an art forger, has been shunned in Paris art circles after the unmasking of her abusive father. Wanting nothing more than a chance to start a new life, she forges a letter of recommendation in hopes of fulfilling her destiny as an artist in the one place where she will finally be free to live her own life. Grace Griffith is the best copyist in the studio, spending her days cutting glass into floral borders for Tiffany’s religious stained-glass windows. But none of her coworkers know her secret: she is living a double life as a political cartoonist under the pseudonym of G.L. Griffith—hiding her identity as a woman. As manager of the women’s division, Clara Driscoll is responsible for keeping everything on schedule and within budget. But in the lead-up to the most important exhibition of her career, not only are her girls becoming increasingly difficult to wrangle, she finds herself obsessed with a new design: a dragonfly lamp that she has no idea will one day become Tiffany’s signature piece. Brought together by chance, driven by their desire to be artists in one of the only ways acceptable for women in their time, these “Tiffany Girls” will break the glass ceiling of their era and for working women to come.  This historical fiction novel set in the Gilded Age of New York City is a perfect gift for any woman interested in art, history, or strong women breaking the glass ceiling of their era.

At their fifth-floor studio on Fourth Avenue, the artists of the Women’s Division of the Tiffany Glass Company are already working longer shifts to finish the pieces that Tiffany hopes will prove that he is the world’s finest artist in glass. Known as the “Tiffany Girls,” these women are responsible for much of the design and construction of Tiffany’s extraordinary glassworks, but none receive credit. Emilie Pascal, daughter of an art forger, has been shunned in Paris art circles after the unmasking of her abusive father. Wanting nothing more than a chance to start a new life, she forges a letter of recommendation in hopes of fulfilling her destiny as an artist in the one place where she will finally be free to live her own life. Grace Griffith is the best copyist in the studio, spending her days cutting glass into floral borders for Tiffany’s religious stained-glass windows. But none of her coworkers know her secret: she is living a double life as a political cartoonist under the pseudonym of G.L. Griffith—hiding her identity as a woman. As manager of the women’s division, Clara Driscoll is responsible for keeping everything on schedule and within budget. But in the lead-up to the most important exhibition of her career, not only are her girls becoming increasingly difficult to wrangle, she finds herself obsessed with a new design: a dragonfly lamp that she has no idea will one day become Tiffany’s signature piece. Brought together by chance, driven by their desire to be artists in one of the only ways acceptable for women in their time, these “Tiffany Girls” will break the glass ceiling of their era and for working women to come.  This historical fiction novel set in the Gilded Age of New York City is a perfect gift for any woman interested in art, history, or strong women breaking the glass ceiling of their era.

Title: After Anne: A Novel of Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Life Author: Logan Steiner Narrator: Tavia Gilbert Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 45 minutes Release date: May 30, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: USA TODAY BESTSELLER A stunning and unexpected portrait of Lucy Maud Montgomery, creator of one of literature’s most prized heroines, whose personal demons were at odds with her most enduring legacy—the irrepressible Anne of Green Gables. “Dear old world,” she murmured, “you are very lovely, and I am glad to be alive in you.” —L. M. Montgomery, Anne of Green Gables, 1908 As a young woman, Maud had dreams bigger than the whole of Prince Edward Island. Her exuberant spirit had always drawn frowns from her grandmother and their neighbors, but she knew she was meant to create, to capture and share the way she saw the world. And the young girl in Maud’s mind became more and more persistent: Here is my story, she said. Here is how my name should be spelled—Anne with an “e.” But the day Maud writes the first lines of Anne of Green Gables, she gets a visit from the handsome new minister in town, and soon faces a decision: forge her own path as a spinster authoress, or live as a rural minister’s wife, an existence she once called ''a synonym for respectable slavery.'' The choice she makes alters the course of her life. With a husband whose religious mania threatens their health and happiness at every turn, the secret darkness that Maud herself holds inside threatens to break through the persona she shows to the world, driving an ever-widening wedge between her public face and private self, and putting her on a path towards a heartbreaking end. Beautiful and moving, After Anne reveals Maud’s hidden personal challenges while celebrating what was timeless about her life and art—the importance of tenacity and the peaceful refuge found in imagination.

Title: Margot: A Novel Author: Wendell Steavenson Narrator: Karissa Vacker Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 12 minutes Release date: January 24, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A moving portrait of a young woman's struggle to break free of her upper-class upbringing amid the whirlwind years of the sexual revolution. It's the mid-1950s and Margot Thornsen is growing up between a Park Avenue apartment in New York and her family's sumptuous Oyster Bay estate as the presumed heir to her late grandfather's steel fortune. Her domineering mother has charted a course for her—to forego education and marry well—but Margot is more interested in microscopes and beetles and books. When a devastating fire brings the family legacy crashing down and the sexual revolution dawns, a new path opens up—the expansive world of late-1960s Radcliffe College and the intellectual, cultural, and sexual freedom Margot has been reaching for. Hailed for her 'intelligent and heartfelt fiction' (Kirkus Reviews), Wendell Steavenson writes with grace, precision, and great psychological perception. With Margot, she has crafted a vivid portrayal of the quiet torment of young women of its era, a comically caustic mother-daughter story, and a memorable evocation of one woman's passion for the wonder of science.

Title: The Secrets We Keep Author: Theresa Howes Narrator: Emma Spurgin Hussey Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 11 minutes Release date: November 10, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: ‘Truly gripping… I loved it.’ Jill Mansell, Sunday Times bestseller A heartbreakingly beautiful novel which captures the endurance and strength of ordinary people in the darkest of times, and the courage of one woman who put her life on the line to join the resistance. Perfect for fans of The Nightingale and The Secret Messenger. 1944, the Cote d’Azur. Artist Marguerite Segal is recruited by British Intelligence into befriending Etienne Valade, a local priest. Her mission is to persuade him to pass on information from the high-ranking German officers who attend his church: evidence of their war crimes. Connected by a passion for art, Marguerite and Etienne soon fall in love, but their association increasingly puts her at danger of violent reprisals. With his church frequented by Nazis, Etienne is a suspected collaborator, and distrust is high. And Marguerite is keeping her own secret too. Like the Jews whose identity cards she forges to hide them from the Third Reich, she is hiding behind a false name, her true identity and past known only to her closest friend. Marguerite must get hold of the documents that will condemn the German officers but, in a world where everything is at stake, can she truly trust anyone – even the man she loves? Praise for The Secrets We Keep: ‘I absolutely loved this… Vivid and heartbreaking.’ Lana Kortchik, USA Today bestselling author of Sisters of War ‘War, passion and tragedy unite in this atmospheric and moving tale.’ S D Sykes, author of the Oswald de Lacy Medieval Murders series ‘A wonderfully immersive, emotional read.’ Annabelle Thorpe, author of The Enemy of Love ‘I stayed up late into the night to finish… A thrilling, exciting story… You might want to have some tissues handy.’ Reader review ‘I enjoyed this novel very much!’ Reader review ‘I highly recommend reading this.’ Reader review ‘Wonderful.’ Reader review Theresa Howes Thu, 10 Nov 2022 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620643 thebookvoice.com 9:11:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/620643]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Unbreakable Heart of Oliva Denaro: A Novel Author: Viola Ardone Narrator: Cassandra Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 57 minutes Release date: May 9, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From the internationally bestselling author of The Children’s Train comes an unforgettable coming-of-age novel, set in 1960s Sicily and based on a true story, of how a young Sicilian girl defied centuries old tradition to win the right to control her own life. As provincial Sicily bursts into life with the jaunty hum of pop music and the heady scent of wild jasmine, fifteen-year-old Oliva Denaro dares to challenge convention, ignoring the taunts of peers, her mother’s scolds, and her own changing body. Spirited and carefree, she loves to run until her lungs burst: to feel the strength of her lithe limbs, to relish the freedom she cherishes, to honor the friends forced by propriety to conform. Though she knows she cannot stop growing up, Oliva resists the future. To her, becoming a woman means denying oneself. But adulthood comes all too quickly when the baker’s son sets his sights on her. Offered a blood orange, Oliva—haunted by her mother’s warning, “a girl who smiles has already said yes”—spurns the fruit. Yet, this act sets into motion an unwanted courtship that will force Oliva to fight for the right to choose her own path, even though the odds of winning are steep. While America and Europe are in the throes of social change, Sicily fiercely clings to its rigid traditions, including the custom of fuitina –by which kidnappings could be disguised as elopements– which is accepted and enshrined in law. Oliva’s battle for independence is based on the real-life story that would ultimately rock Italy–capturing the attention of both the Pope and the nation’s president—and transform life for all Italians. The Unbreakable Heart of Oliva Denaro is a lyrical tale of staggering beauty. Viola Ardone beautifully evokes a land and its people, customs, and passions, and breathes life into an unforgettable girl in all her intensity, desperation, perseverance, and bravery. Alternating between the lighthearted and the tragic, it is a classic coming-of-age novel—powerful, spellbinding, and liberating.

Title: The Last Masterpiece: A Novel of World War II Italy Author: Laura Morelli Narrator: Christa Lewis, Stina Nielsen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 27 minutes Release date: August 1, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In a race across Nazi-occupied Italy, two women—a German photographer and an American stenographer—hunt for priceless masterpieces looted from the Florentine art collections. In the summer of 1943, Eva Brunner is taking photographs of Nazi-looted art hidden in the salt mines of the Austrian hinterland. Across the ocean in Connecticut, Josephine Evans is working as a humble typist at the Yale Art Gallery. When both women are called to Italy to contribute to the war effort, neither imagines she will hold the fate of some of the world’s greatest masterpieces torn from the Uffizi Galleries and other Florentine art collections in her hands. But as Italy turns from ally to enemy and Hitler’s plan to destroy irreplaceable monuments and works of art becomes frighteningly clear, each woman’s race against the clock—and against one another—might demand more than they were prepared to give. The Last Masterpiece takes readers on a heart-pumping adventure up the Italian peninsula, where nothing is as it seems and some of the greatest works of art and human achievement are at stake. Who might steal and who might save a work of art—and at what cost? Inspired by the incredible true story of the Monuments Women, the Fifth Army WACs, and the looted Florentine art collections during World War II, the latest historical novel by USA Today bestselling author and art historian Laura Morelli plunges readers into the heart of war-torn Italy.  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

But dreams die in wartime, and Hannie’s closest friends are no longer safe as fascism insidiously rises in her country. Hiding them is not enough. Hannie may be young but she can’t stand aside as the menace of Nazi evil tightens its grip. Driven by love and moral outrage, Hannie soon becomes an armed member of the Dutch Resistance movement. Hannie discovers her own untapped ferocity—wearing lipstick and heels to lure powerful Nazis close and assassinate them at point-blank range, and bombing munitions factories. As humanity collapses around her, Hannie finds a chosen family of friends within the Resistance and falls in love with a dashing fellow resister at a tremendous cost. Her greatest weapon is her determination to 'stay human' (blijf menselijk) . . . a promise increasingly difficult to keep.    As Hannie is drawn deeper into a web of plots, disguises and assassinations, whispers spread like wildfire among enemy and friend alike. They all know of her, if not her name: she’s “the Girl with Red Hair.” A match for any Nazi soldier. A true threat. And a target.   To Die Beautiful is a timely look at how fascism flourishes and what good people do to fight back. Based on real events, To Die Beautiful is told with the drama and emotional resonance of meticulously researched history.

Title: The Friday Night Club: A Novel of Artist Hilma af Klint and Her Creative Circle Author: Sofia Lundberg, M.J. Rose, Alyson Richman Narrator: Pete Cross, Alyson Richman, Tavia Gilbert Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 16 minutes Release date: May 16, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: An International Bestseller While men have long been credited with producing the first abstract paintings, the true creator was actually a woman – Swedish artist Hilma af Klint, who was inspired by her mystic visions. Acclaimed authors Sofia Lundberg, Alyson Richman, and M.J. Rose bring her story to life in this groundbreaking novel.   Early 1900s: The world belongs to men, and the art world in Stockholm, Sweden, is no different, until Hilma af Klint brings together a mysterious group of female painters and writers—Anna, Cornelia, Sigrid, and Mathilda—to form their own emotional and artistic support system.  The members of the Friday Night Club find themselves thrust into uncharted territory when Hilma and her best friend, Anna, begin dabbling in the occult, believing that through séances they can channel unseen spirits to help them achieve their potential as artists. “The Five,” as Hilma referred to them, was a group of immensely talented, fascinating women whose lives and work were cast into obscurity...until now.   The Present: Over a century later, an associate curator at the Guggenheim Museum, Eben Elliot, brings the Hilma af Klint show to New York where he uncovers questions about the Five and how the modern day art world is funded, which puts him in a precarious position both emotionally and professionally, as he witnesses how history can be manipulated.   The Friday Night Club is an illuminating historical novel that explores destiny, passion, and the threads that connect five women as they challenge artistic and societal traditions.

Title: The Disenchantment: A Novel Author: Celia Bell Narrator: Madeleine Leslay Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 35 minutes Release date: May 16, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: This radiant and thrilling debut follows a passionate love affair between two noblewomen who wish to free themselves from their repressive society, whatever the cost. “Propel[s] us into the epicentre of a 17th century Paris where breaking out of the prison of arranged marriage is only one of the many challenges confronting women.” —Lisa Appignanesi, author of Everyday Madness In 17th century Paris, everyone has something to hide. The noblemen and women and writers consort with fortune tellers in the confines of their homes, servants practice witchcraft and black magic, and the titled poison family members to obtain inheritance. But for the Baroness Marie Catherine, the only thing she wishes to hide is how unhappy she is in her marriage, and the pleasures she seeks outside of it. When her husband is present, the Baroness spends her days tending to her children and telling them elaborate fairy tales, but when he’s gone, Marie Catherine indulges in a more liberated existence, one of forward-thinking discussions with female scholars in the salons of grand houses, and at the center of her freedom: Victoire Rose de Bourbon, Mademoiselle de Conti, the androgynous, self-assured countess who steals Marie Catherine’s heart and becomes her lover. Victoire possesses everything Marie Catherine does not—confidence in her love, and a brazen fearlessness in all that she’s willing to do for it. But when a shocking and unexpected murder occurs, Marie Catherine must escape. And what she discovers is the dark underbelly of a city full of people who have secrets they would kill to keep. The Disenchantment is a stunning debut that conjures an unexpected world of passion, crime, intrigue, and black magic.

West’s translations . . . reintroduce English-language readers to this giant of Latin American fiction.” —Natasha Wimmer, The New York Review of Books One of Cuba’s—and Latin America’s—greatest historical novels, about imperial conquest carried out under the guise of liberation, in its first new English translation in sixty years and featuring a new foreword by Alejandro Zambra A Penguin Classic When he arrives in Cuba at the close of the eighteenth century, Victor Hugues, a merchant sailor from Marseille, brings with him not only the idealism of the French Revolution but also its ambition and bloodlust. Landing at the Havana doorstep of a trio of wealthy, eccentric Creole orphans, he sweeps them across the Caribbean Sea to Guadeloupe, whose enslaved Africans he frees only then to exploit them in his fight against the British for colonial sovereignty. What ensues in Alejo Carpentier’s swashbuckling, magical realist masterpiece is an explosive clash between the New World and the Old World, and between revolutionary ideals and the corrupting allure of power.

Title: Peach Blossom Paradise Author: Ge Fei Narrator: Cindy Kay Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 44 minutes Release date: May 24, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: An enthralling story of revolution, idealism, and a savage struggle for utopia by one of China's greatest living novelists In 1898 reformist intellectuals in China persuaded the young emperor that it was time to transform his sclerotic empire into a prosperous modern state. The Hundred Days’ Reform that followed was a moment of unprecedented change and extraordinary hope—brought to an abrupt end by a bloody military coup. Dashed expectations would contribute to the revolutionary turn that Chinese history would soon take, leading in time to the deaths of millions. Peach Blossom Paradise, set at the time of the reform, is the story of Xiumi, the daughter of a wealthy landowner and former government official who falls prey to insanity and disappears. Days later, a man with a gold cicada in his pocket turns up at their family estate and is inexplicably welcomed as a relative. This mysterious man has a great vision of reforging China as an egalitarian utopia, and he will stop at nothing to make it real. It is his own plans, however, which come to nothing, and his “little sister” Xiumi is left to take up arms against a Confucian world in which women are chattel. Her campaign for change and her struggle to seize control over her own body are continually threatened by the violent whims of men who claim to be building paradise.

The following year, he became engaged to Sophia Peabody. He worked at the Boston Custom House and joined Brook Farm, a transcendentalist community, before marrying Peabody in 1842. The couple moved to The Old Manse in Concord, Massachusetts, later moving to Salem, the Berkshires, then to The Wayside in Concord.

Daws Narrator: Sarah Zimmerman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 10 minutes Release date: September 1, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In this tense thriller set on a WW2 airbase, a female pilot faces danger in the sky—and a murderer on the ground. July 1940. As the Battle of Britain begins, the women of the Air Transport Auxiliary carry out the dangerous task of ferrying warplanes to RAF airbases. But for the ATA detachment sent to the base at Scotney, it’s not only in the skies that they’re a target—it seems a killer is stalking them on the ground… On the day pilot Lizzie Hayes arrives in the quiet village, one of her new comrades is found murdered. One of the few women in Britain with a psychology PhD, Lizzie thinks she can use her skills to help identify the killer among the military staff and local villagers, but DI Jonathan Kember isn’t convinced. When a second pilot is murdered, Lizzie’s profile of the killer comes into sharper focus—attracting anonymous threats against her own life. With Kember’s investigation stalling and events at the airbase becoming ever more sinister, Lizzie’s talents are given a chance. But can she and the still-sceptical Kember work together to find the killer before Lizzie becomes the next victim? N. R.

Title: Jazzed Author: Jill Dearman Narrator: Orlagh Cassidy Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 10 minutes Release date: February 14, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Academic geniuses Wilhelmina “Will” Reinhardt and Dorothy “Dolly” Raab become roommates at Barnard in the early 1920s, a time when college for women was a rarity. Socially awkward Will, grieving her mother’s death, is fascinated by Dolly, a beautiful, charming rebel with an insatiable taste for adrenaline. Both musicians come alive at Harlem jazz clubs and Prohibition-era speakeasies. Dazzled by the world they are discovering together, their romance ignites. But while Will is obsessed with Dolly, Dolly is obsessed with crime. The power dynamics keep shifting as Will agrees to commit petty crimes with Dolly in exchange for sexual favors. When the University and their rich families unite to split them up, passions escalate. To strike back at those who deny them the right to be together, they plot another crime: murder. A gender-swapped take on the infamous “Leopold and Loeb” case, Jazzed is part historical fiction, part true crime. Juxtaposing the thrilling scientific breakthroughs in quantum physics and artistic explosion of the Harlem Renaissance with the pseudoscience of eugenics and anti-immigration fervor that also defined the era, the novel mirrors today’s polarized world and moves with the fast-paced rhythm of jazz itself.

But then a young, handsome man named James Earlham comes to town, and everything changes. Their instant connection disturbs her heart, her peace and her safety. Because Bella knows that for their love to flourish, she will have to reveal the secret that has remained hidden all these years – and put her trust in James. Bella's heart tells her to confess everything. But can she be sure James is really who he says he is? Can Bella truly be herself with him? Or is she putting her life in the hands of the one person who could betray her? A page-turning novel about secrets, mistaken trust and the impossibility of hiding from your past, The Widow's Last Secret is a must-read for fans of Kerry Barrett, Kate Morton and Tracy Rees. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618978 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618978]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - Tuareg, Señores del desierto Author: Elena Garquin Narrator: Adriana Galindo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 9 minutes Release date: August 31, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 'El Sáhara, 1890. El Sáhara, 1890. Cuando Beatriz Ayala vuelve en sí, después de estar a punto de morir en pleno desierto, tiene una sola idea en la cabeza: regresar a su hogar en España, del que fue brutalmente arrancada para ser vendida como esclava. Nada ni nadie le impedirá llevar a cabo su empresa. Ni siquiera Tahir Abdul-Azim, poderoso líder de una Confederación tuareg, el bravo y noble guerrero que la ha salvado de las garras de la muerte, tan atractivo e imponente que despierta en ella un fulgurante deseo imposible de dominar. Pero él no parece opinar lo mismo. Tahir vive para su pueblo, y está dispuesto a cualquier sacrificio por él. Sobre todo, si ese sacrificio se traduce en hacerse cargo de una hermosa y testaruda mujer por la que se siente irremediablemente atraído. Consciente de que pertenecen a mundos totalmente opuestos, pero dispuesto a vencer su carácter obstinado para convertirse en el amo de toda su pasión, la acepta como huésped. Iniciarán así una aventura a través de territorios convulsionados por las luchas internas de poder y los efectos devastadores de la colonización, donde Beatriz será capaz de sortear toda clase de peligros, excepto uno: resistirse al oscuro embrujo del hombre que la protegerá con su vida, irrumpiendo con fuerza en su corazón.'

Title: The Chinese Groove: A Novel Author: Kathryn Ma Narrator: James Chen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 14 minutes Release date: January 24, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.67 of Total 3 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Anne Tyler meets Jade Chang in this buoyant, good-hearted, and sharply written novel about a blithely optimistic immigrant with big dreams, dire prospects, and a fractured extended family in need of his help—even if they don't know it yet Eighteen-year-old Shelley, born into a much-despised branch of the Zheng family in Yunnan Province and living in the shadow of his widowed father’s grief, dreams of bigger things. Buoyed by an exuberant heart and his cousin Deng’s tall tales about the United States, Shelley heads to San Francisco to claim his destiny, confident that any hurdles will be easily overcome by the awesome powers of the “Chinese groove,” a belief in the unspoken bonds between countrymen that transcend time and borders. Upon arrival, Shelley is dismayed to find that his “rich uncle” is in fact his unemployed second cousin once removed and that the grand guest room he’d envisioned is but a scratchy sofa. The indefinite stay he’d planned for? That has a firm two-week expiration date. Even worse, the loving family he hoped would embrace him is in shambles, shattered by a senseless tragedy that has cleaved the family in two. They want nothing to do with this youthful bounder who’s barged into their lives. Ever the optimist, Shelley concocts a plan to resuscitate his American dream by insinuating himself into the family. And, who knows, maybe he’ll even manage to bring them back together in the process.

Title: It’s Alive! Author: Julian David Stone Narrator: Stefan Rudnicki Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 49 minutes Release date: May 17, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The only thing harder than raising the dead is making a movie about raising the dead. In the summer of 1931, life was good for Junior Laemmle. Though only twenty-three-years-old, he was the head of all movie production for Universal Pictures, and under his reign, the studio flourished. So much so, he was about to be bestowed with the greatest honor a young executive can receive in Hollywood: a promotion to vice president of the entire company. What’s more, Carl Laemmle, his father and founder of the studio, was returning to California for the first time in years to personally present the honor to his son. Or so Junior thought. When his father arrives, Junior discovers that instead of being grateful for transforming and catapulting the out-of-date studio into the future, his father is obsessed with Junior’s next production: Frankenstein. Like the year before, Carl is fervently against making another grisly and gothic film, despite Dracula becoming a huge hit—a project which Junior fought for and personally oversaw through production. Also not helping Junior’s cause, though the film is just days away from beginning production, the final choice between Bela Lugosi and Boris Karloff to play the role of the Monster, has yet to be made. It’s Alive! is a thrilling and vibrant portrait of 1930s Hollywood centered around the chaotic and exciting days just before the filming of the beloved cult-classic film, Frankenstein. Woven with hopeful passion, emotional vulnerability, staunch determination, and creative fulfillment, readers will be swept along with breathless cinematic pace through events that will not only change the lives of everyone involved, but Hollywood itself.

Siete hermanas, siete destinos, un padre con un pasado misterioso. En apariencia, Electra d'Aplièse lo tiene todo para ser feliz. Es bella, rica, famosa y una de las modelos más cotizadas del mundo. Pero debajo de esa perfecta fachada Electra no ha sido capaz de superar la muerte de su padre, el misterioso millonario Pa Salt, y recurre constantemente al alcohol y las drogas. Mientras lucha por salir a flote, un día recibe una carta de una desconocida que asegura ser su abuela... En 1939, Cecily Huntley-Morgan viaja a Kenia desde Nueva York en un intento de recomponer su corazón roto. Tras instalarse con su madrina en las orillas del idílico lago Naivasha, conoce a Bill Forsythe, un hacendado de carácter hosco y estrechos lazos con la orgullosa tribu de los masáis. Pero la guerra se acerca y Cecily se siente cada vez más aislada. Hasta que un encuentro con una mujer en el bosque propicia una promesa que cambiará su vida para siempre.

El resultado es un vívido, humano y entrañable retrato en el que el personaje se despoja y trasciende las etiquetas de patriota o traidor. París, 1867. Juan Nepomuceno Almonte, hijo de José María Morelos y Pavón, llega a Francia para solicitar la ayuda de Napoleón III con el fin de sostener el imperio de Maximiliano, sin embargo, no tiene éxito. Unos meses después de la ejecución del emperador, un grupo clandestino de mexicanos y franceses que busca instaurar el Tercer Imperio Mexicano, lo contacta para que apoye sus ambiciones. El enlace entre ellos es un joven y afamado escritor, a quien Almonte narra los grandes acontecimientos de su pasado: el significado de ser hijo del Siervo de la Nación, su participación en algunas batallas por la Independencia cuando era apenas un niño, su posterior estancia en Nueva Orleans, los hitos de su carrera militar y política; así como su relación con Santa Anna, Juárez, Maximiliano, Carlota… Mario Heredia Thu, 25 Aug 2022 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618453 thebookvoice.com 5:22:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618453]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - La niña polaca Author: Mónica Rojas Narrator: Karina Castillo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 28 minutes Release date: August 25, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: La novela de Mónica Rojas no solo destierra del olvido la tragedia de la ocupación de Polonia durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, sino que reivindica la importancia de la que será conocida desde entonces como La Pequeña Polonia en México. Agosto de 1939. Mientras los líderes de la Unión Soviética y la Alemania nazi se reúnen en Moscú para repartirse los territorios de Polonia, la joven Ania juega en el campo, ajena a toda barbarie. Sin embargo, todo cambia tras la ocupación de su pueblito Komarno por tropas bolcheviques: ella y su familia serán trasladados al Gulag siberiano, donde trabajarán sin descanso bajo un frío inclemente, arriesgando cada día su integridad física y viviendo bajo el despiadado peso de la desesperanza. Para sobrevivir, Ania deberá atenerse a los recuerdos de Cezlaw, su primer amor; a la bondad de la anciana Olga, quien mantiene viva su curiosidad gracias a sus historias; y a la tierna devoción de sus padres. Por fortuna el destino quiso para Ania la oportunidad de abandonar el trabajo forzado y emigrar. Junto con su familia y otros muchos polacos, y tras una travesía extenuante, se instalarán en la Hacienda de Santa Rosa en Guanajuato, México, donde por fin encontrarán la redención y una nueva patria.

Unos la cuentan dependiendo de cómo la vivieron o según se la contaron; otros, como un cuento que se va deshilachando de generación en generación, y algunos más la pintan con pinceles en papel amate o la graban en su corazón con hierros ardientes. Incluso hay quienes la heredan como un tesoro o una condena en la sangre que corre por sus venas o en el color de la piel. Los vencedores dan su versión como si fuera la única y verdadera, mientras que los vencidos van grabando sus historias donde pueden: en la tierra, en el aire, en los vegetales, en el reguero de sangre, en el alma rota, en el grito ahogado. La conservan de diferentes maneras, en recuerdos desvanecidos, en los telares, en el barro cocido, pero igualmente la depositan en sus vientres, en las moléculas familiares, debajo de las uñas.” Kyra Galván Thu, 25 Aug 2022 02:49:51 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618449 thebookvoice.com 10:33:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/618449]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Secret Book of Flora Lea: A Novel Author: Patti Callahan Henry Narrator: Cynthia Erivo, Patti Callahan Henry Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 24 minutes Release date: May 2, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.63 of Total 27 Ratings of Narrator: 4.64 of Total 11 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: When a woman discovers a rare book with connections to her past, long-held secrets about her missing sister and their childhood in the English countryside during World War II are revealed in this “beguiling blend of hope, mystery, and true familial love” (Sadeqa Johnson, New York Times bestselling author). In the war-torn London of 1939, fourteen-year-old Hazel and five-year-old Flora are evacuated to a rural village to escape the horrors of the Second World War. Living with the kind Bridie Aberdeen and her teenage son, Harry, in a charming stone cottage along the River Thames, Hazel fills their days with walks and games to distract her young sister, including one that she creates for her sister and her sister alone—a fairy tale about a magical land, a secret place they can escape to that is all their own. But the unthinkable happens when young Flora suddenly vanishes while playing near the banks of the river. Shattered, Hazel blames herself for her sister’s disappearance, and she carries that guilt into adulthood as a private burden she feels she deserves. Twenty years later, Hazel is in London, ready to move on from her job at a cozy rare bookstore to a career at Sotheby’s. With a charming boyfriend and her elegantly timeworn Bloomsbury flat, Hazel’s future seems determined. But her tidy life is turned upside down when she unwraps a package containing an illustrated book called Whisperwood and the River of Stars. Hazel never told a soul about the imaginary world she created just for Flora. Could this book hold the secrets to Flora’s disappearance? Could it be a sign that her beloved sister is still alive after all these years? As Hazel embarks on a feverish quest, revisiting long-dormant relationships and bravely opening wounds from her past, her career and future hang in the balance. Spellbinding and atmospheric, “this heartrending, captivating tale of family, first love, and fate will sweep you away” (Kristin Harmel, New York Times bestselling author).

Meet LA darling Evra Scott. The daughter of an Oscar-winning director and a Brazilian bombshell actress, Evra is the city’s reigning style queen. By day, she’s at the helm of Sunset on Sunset, the store beloved by Hollywood’s young and beautiful. By night, she’s on the arm of Kai de la Faire, Hawaii’s hottest export, and the screenwriter of the moment. Enter Theodora Leigh. The twenty-something Paramount assistant looks like a big screen star, but her sights are firmly set behind the scenes, as she fights to become a movie producer in a town where sex and sexism sell. Theodora’s got the talent and instincts, but she’s not willing to wait. Luckily, getting ahead by any means necessary is LA’s mantra. Observing it all is Bea Dupont, a photographer for Rolling Stone and Vogue, who never misses the party, but always keeps to its fringes. A Manhattan blue blood turned West Coast bohemian, Bea holds Evra’s Sunset crowd together. She’s also Kai’s oldest friend, and she’s harbored a not-so-secret flame for him since they met at an elite Swiss boarding school. But in Hollywood, no one stays on top forever. And it’s not long before Theodora’s unrelenting ambition sets in motion a dramatic quest for power in an industry that is as glamorous as it is duplicitous. From Rodeo Drive to the French Riviera, The Sunset Crowd is a tale of survival and reinvention, of faking it until you make it, and the glittering appeal of success and stardom, as it seeks to answer that timeless question—who gets to have the American dream?

Joanie has also arrived in New Guinea, with a chance to manage a trading store with her father, Reg, too exciting an opportunity to pass up. As the tendrils of war creep closer to the islands north of Australia, some who call Rabaul home are given an opportunity to return to Australian shores. Others have no option but to stay. Will separation and distance affect the destiny of those who live in the path of the approaching enemy or will the power of love prevail? Based on actual events, Elizabeth's Star begins the story of Michael and Joanie, unfolding the lives of their families and friends while following the life of Gracie, a little girl left behind when her father went to war. A sweeping historical novel based on actual events of the 1930s and 40s set amidst the backdrop of outback Queensland through to the tropical islands of New Guinea.
