Title: When Franny Stands Up Author: Eden Robins Narrator: Lily Ganser Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 18 minutes Release date: November 1, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Franny Steinberg knows there’s powerful magic in laughter. She’s witnessed it. With the men of Chicago off fighting WWII on distant shores, Franny has watched the women of the city taking charge of the war effort. But amidst the war-bond sales and factory shifts, something surprising has emerged, something Franny could never have expected. A new marvel that has women flocking to comedy clubs across the nation: The Showstopper. When Franny steps into Chicago’s Blue Moon comedy club, she realizes the power of a Showstopper—that specific magic sparked when an audience laughs so hard that they are momentarily transformed. And while each comedian’s Showstopper is different, they all have one thing in common: they only work on women. After a traumatic flashback propels her onstage in a torn bridesmaid dress, Franny discovers her own Showstopper is something new. And suddenly she has the power to change everything—for herself, for her audience, and for the people who may need it most.

Title: [German] - Die Sternenpflückerin: Winter der Tränen Series: #1 of Die Sternenpflückerin Author: Iris Krumbiegel Narrator: Hanna Kersten Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 32 minutes Release date: August 12, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 'Warum, glaubst du, blinken all die Sterne nachts am Himmel?', fragt Augusta ihre Schwester. 'Damit wir danach greifen, Grete. Verstehst du das nicht?' Kurz darauf schleicht sie sich vom elterlichen Hof und begibt sich auf einen gefährlichen Weg in die Reichshauptstadt. Ihre Tochter, die sie unfreiwillig zur Welt gebracht hat, lässt sie zurück. Stattdessen träumt sie von einer Karriere in Berlin, die sich schon bald darauf erfüllt. Augusta steigt zu den fähigsten Stenografinnen der Stadt auf und nimmt sogar an Konferenzen mit dem Führer teil. Doch dann durchkreuzt Zadek ihre Pläne. Er berichtet ihr von seinem Kampf gegen die Faschisten und steckt sie mit seiner Begeisterung an. Ihm hat es Augusta zu verdanken, dass sie hinter die Fassade der Partei blicken kann, die Deutschland inzwischen vollständig diktiert. Sie entscheidet sich dafür, Zadek zu unterstützen und der jüdischen Bevölkerung im Kampf ums Überleben beizustehen. Doch dann kehrt völlig unerwartet Ullrich zurück, der Vater ihrer Tochter und glühender Verehrer des Führers. Augusta ahnt nicht, dass er für die Gestapo arbeitet und sie sich in eine Gefahr bringt, aus der es am Ende keinen Ausweg gibt. Kampf, Widerstand, Verrat und Liebe vor dem Hintergrund des Holocaust.

Title: A History of Burning Author: Janika Oza Narrator: Kp Upadhyayula, Lipica Shah Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 40 minutes Release date: May 4, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. An immersive, kaleidoscopic debut for fans of Homegoing and Pachinko: one family's search for a better life through four continents, four generations and a century of change At the turn of the twentieth century Pirbhai, a teenage boy, is taken from his village in India and travels perilously across the sea to labour on the East African railroad for the British. There, he is given a ruthless order. Following it will ensure his survival. But it will also torment him and reverberate across his family's future for decades to come. During the waning days of British colonial rule, and as Uganda moves towards independence and military dictatorship, Pirbhai's children and grandchildren come of age in a divided nation. In 1972, when Idi Amin's brutal regime expels the Ugandan Asians, the family has no choice but to flee. In the chaos, they leave something devastating and unexpected behind. As Pirbhai's grandchildren find their way back to each other in exile in Toronto, a letter arrives that will stoke the flames of the fire that haunts the family. It makes each generation question how far they are willing to go, and who they are willing to defy, in order to secure their own place in the world. A History of Burning is an unforgettable tour de force, an intimate family saga of complicity and resistance, about the stories we share, what remains unspoken and the eternal search for home. ©2023 Janika Oza (P)2023 Penguin Audio Janika Oza Thu, 04 May 2023 02:49:54 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617982 thebookvoice.com 13:40:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617982]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Je mehr sie über die Tat herausfindet, desto mehr Leute scheinen in den Fall involviert zu sein: Der Vater des Verurteilten war ein erklärter Gegner von Murdo Maxwells politischer Agenda, die Polizei führt Ermittlungen in den eigenen Reihen durch, und auch eine zwielichtige Gestalt aus Glasgow interessiert sich brennend für ihre Nachforschungen … Die Rebecca-Connolly-Reihe: Band 1: Die Toten von Thunder Bay Band 2: Das Grab in den Highlands Band 3: Das Unrecht von Inverness Alle Bände sind eigenständige Fälle und können unabhängig voneinander gelesen werden.

The winds shift nervously on the Kansas plain whispering of travelers lost and buried, whispering of witches. Something dark and twisted has taken root at the Bender Inn . . . At first the townspeople of Cherryvale welcome the rising medium Kate Bender and her family. Kate's messages from the Beyond give their tedious dreams hope and her mother's potions cure their little ills-for a price. No one knows about their other business, the shortcut to a better life. And why shouldn't their family prosper? They're careful. It's only from those who are marked, those who travel alone and can easily disappear, that the Benders demand their pound of flesh. But even a gifted seer like Kate can make a misstep. Now as the secrets festering beneath the soil of the family orchard threaten to bring them all to ruin, the Benders must sharpen their craft-or vanish themselves.

In a classroom in Seoul, a young woman watches her Greek language teacher at the blackboard. She tries to speak but has lost her voice. Her teacher finds himself drawn to the silent woman, for day by day he is losing his sight.  Soon the two discover a deeper pain binds them together. For her, in the space of just a few months, she has lost both her mother and the custody battle for her nine-year-old son. For him, it's the pain of growing up between Korea and Germany, being torn between two cultures and languages, and the fear of losing his independence.

Title: Poland, a Green Land: A Novel Author: Aharon Appelfeld Narrator: Gilli Messer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 11 minutes Release date: June 20, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A Tel Aviv shopkeeper visits his parents’ Polish birthplace in an attempt to come to terms with their complex legacy—and is completely unprepared for what he finds there. Yaakov Fine’s practical wife and daughters are baffled by his decision to leave his flourishing dress shop for a ten-day trip to his family’s ancestral village in Poland. Struggling to emerge from a midlife depression, Yaakov is drawn to Szydowce, intrigued by the stories he'd heard as a child from his parents and their friends, who would wax nostalgic about their pastoral, verdant hometown in the decades before 1939. The horrific years that followed were relegated to the nightmares that shattered sleep and were not discussed during waking hours. When he arrives in Krakow, Yaakov enjoys the charming sidewalk cafes and relaxed European atmosphere, so different from the hurly burly of Tel Aviv. And his landlady in Szydowce—beautiful, sensual Magda, with a tragic past of her own—enchants him with her recollections of his family. But when Yaakov attempts to purchase from the townspeople the desecrated tombstones that had been stolen from Szydowce’s plowed-under Jewish cemetery, a very different Poland emerges, one that shatters Yaakov’s idyllic view of the town and its people, and casts into sharp relief the tragic reality of Jewish life in Poland—past, present, and future. In this novel of revelation and reconciliation, Aharon Appelfeld once again mines lived experience to create fiction of powerful, universal resonance.

Thrilling.” —The New York Times 'At once a celebration of music and also a cautionary tale about legacy, privilege, and creative genius.' —Nita Prose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Maid Bern Hendricks has just received the call of a lifetime. As one of the world’s preeminent experts on the famed twentieth-century composer Frederick Delaney, Bern knows everything there is to know about the man behind the music. When Mallory Roberts, a board member of the distinguished Delaney Foundation and direct descendant of the man himself, asks for Bern’s help authenticating a newly discovered piece, which may be his famous lost opera, RED, he jumps at the chance. With the help of his tech-savvy acquaintance Eboni, Bern soon discovers that the truth is far more complicated than history would have them believe. In 1920s Manhattan, Josephine Reed is living on the streets and frequenting jazz clubs when she meets the struggling musician Fred Delaney. But where young Delaney struggles, Josephine soars. She’s a natural prodigy who hears beautiful music in the sounds of the world around her. With Josephine as his silent partner, Delaney’s career takes off—but who is the real genius here? In the present day, Bern and Eboni begin to uncover more clues that indicate Delaney may have had help in composing his most successful work. Armed with more questions than answers and caught in the crosshairs of a powerful organization who will stop at nothing to keep their secret hidden, Bern and Eboni will move heaven and earth in their dogged quest to right history’s wrongs. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617671 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/617671]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: Rootless: A Novel Author: Krystle Zara Appiah Narrator: Diana Yekinni, Clifford Samuel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 14 minutes Release date: March 7, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: WINNER OF THE NAACP IMAGE AWARD • A provocative debut novel about a marriage in crisis that asks the question: Can you ever be rooted in a home that’s on the brink of collapse? “Beautiful, gripping, and tender . . . a powerful and unforgettable meditation on love, belonging, and motherhood.”—Emilia Hart, author of Weyward On a spring afternoon in London, Sam races up the stairs of his flat two at a time. There’s £1,300 missing from the bank account he shares with his wife, Efe, and his calls are going straight to voicemail. When he finally reaches someone, he learns that Efe is over four thousand miles away, as their toddler looks around and asks, “Where’s Mummy?” When Efe and Sam met as teens headed for university, it seemed that everyone knew they were meant to be. Efe, newly arrived in the UK from Ghana and sinking under the weight of her parents’ expectations, found comfort in the focused and idealistic Sam. He was stable, working toward a law career, and had an unwavering vision for their future—a vision Efe, now a decade later, finds insufferable. From the outside, they’re the picture-perfect couple everyone imagined, but there are cracks in the frame. Faced with a life-altering decision, Efe and Sam find themselves on opposing sides, forced to confront just how radically different they want their lives to be. Then one day, Efe disappears. Rootless is a heartrending story about sacrifice, family, and ambition, providing an intimate look at what happens after a marriage collapses—and if it can still be saved.

Title: The Lost Wife: A novel Author: Susanna Moore Narrator: Sophie Amoss Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 19 minutes Release date: April 4, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A WALL STREET JOURNAL TOP TEN BOOK OF THE YEAR • This immersive, brilliantly subversive historical novel, inspired by a true story, is “set in 1855, follows 25-year-old Sarah Browne as she…heads west to the Minnesota Territory…When the Sioux Uprising of 1862 erupts…Sarah and her children are captured, but protected by the Sioux. Sarah sympathizes with her captors, and slips into the gap between her two worlds” (TIME). “The story has it all: the bloody hell of war…revenge, corruption, injustice. Even some romance…A vivid tale of frontier adventure and peril.” —Minneapolis Star-Tribune One of our most compelling and sensual writers brings to life a devastating Native American revolt and the woman caught in the middle of the conflict in this novel about a seminal and shameful moment in America’s conquest of the West. In the summer of 1855, Sarah Brinton abandons her husband and child to make the long and difficult journey from Rhode Island to Minnesota Territory, where she plans to reunite with a childhood friend. When she arrives at a small frontier post on the edge of the prairie without family or friends and with no prospect of work or money, she quickly remarries and has two children. Anticipating unease and hardship at the Indian Agency, where her husband Dr. John Brinton is the new resident physician, Sarah instead finds acceptance and kinship among the Sioux women at a nearby reservation. The Sioux tribes, however, are wary of the white settlers and resent the rampant theft of their land. Promised payments by the federal government are never made, and starvation and disease soon begin to decimate their community. Tragically and inevitably, this leads to the Sioux Uprising of 1862. During the conflict, Sarah and her children are abducted by the Sioux, who protect her, but because she sympathizes with her captors, Sarah becomes an outcast to the white settlers. In the end, she is lost to both worlds. Intimate and raw, The Lost Wife is a searing tale of the conquest of the American West.

Title: Mummy Darlings: A Glorious Guinness Girls Novel Author: Emily Hourican Narrator: Roisin Rankin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 20 minutes Release date: April 18, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: This stunning novel the from author of The Glorious Guinness Girls follows the three enigmatic Guinness sisters as they take on married life and motherhood at the beginning of the 1930s.  It's the dawn of the 1930s and the three privileged Guinness sisters, Aileen, Maureen and Oonagh, settle into becoming wives and mothers: Aileen in Luttrellstown Castle outside Dublin, Maureen in Clandeboye in Northern Ireland, and Oonagh in Rutland Place in London. But while Britain becomes increasingly politically polarized, Aileen, Maureen and Oonagh discover conflict within their own marriages. Oonagh's dream of romantic love is countered by her husband's lies; the intense nature of Maureen's marriage means passion, but also rows; while Aileen begins to discover that, for her, being married offers far less than she had expected.

Title: Candide: The Classic Tale Author: Voltaire Narrator: The Cliff, Cyril Taylor-Carr Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 52 minutes Release date: August 6, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Candide is characterized by its tone as well as by its erratic, fantastical, and fast-moving plot. A picaresque novel with a story similar to that of a more serious coming-of-age narrative, it parodies many adventure and romance clichés, the struggles of which are caricatured in a tone that is bitter and matter-of-fact. Still, the events discussed are often based on historical happenings, such as the Seven Years' War and the 1755 Lisbon earthquake. As philosophers of Voltaire's day contended with the problem of evil, so does Candide in this short theological novel, albeit more directly and humorously. Voltaire ridicules religion, theologians, governments, armies, philosophies, and philosophers. Through Candide, he assaults Leibniz and his optimism. Candide has enjoyed both great success and great scandal. Immediately after its secretive publication, the book was widely banned to the public because it contained religious blasphemy, political sedition, and intellectual hostility hidden under a thin veil of naïveté. However, with its sharp wit and insightful portrayal of the human condition, the novel has since inspired many later authors and artists to mimic and adapt it. Today, Candide is considered as Voltaire's magnum opus and is often listed as part of the Western canon. It is among the most frequently taught works of French literature. The British poet and literary critic Martin Seymour-Smith listed Candide as one of the 100 most influential books ever written.

Title: Redburn His First Voyage Author: Herman Melville Narrator: The Ark, Geoffrey Giuliano Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 41 minutes Release date: August 3, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Herman Melville was an American novelist, short story writer, and poet of the American Renaissance period. Among his bestknown works are MobyDick (1851); Typee (1846), a romanticized account of his experiences in Polynesia; and Billy Budd, Sailor, a posthumously published novella. Although his reputation was not high at the time of his death, the 1919 centennial of his birth was the starting point of a Melville revival, and MobyDick grew to be considered one of the great American novels. Melville's growing literary ambition showed in MobyDick (1851), which took nearly a year and a half to write, but it did not find an audience, and critics scorned his psychological novel Pierre: or, The Ambiguities (1852). From 1853 to 1856, Melville published short fiction in magazines, including 'Benito Cereno' and 'Bartleby, the Scrivener'. In 1857, he traveled to England, toured the Near East, and published his last work of prose, The ConfidenceMan (1857). He moved to New York in 1863, eventually taking a position as United States customs inspector. From that point, Melville focused his creative powers on poetry. BattlePieces and Aspects of the War (1866) was his poetic reflection on the moral questions of the American Civil War. In 1867, his eldest child Malcolm died at home from a selfinflicted gunshot. Melville's metaphysical epic Clarel: A Poem and Pilgrimage in the Holy Land was published in 1876. In 1886, his other son Stanwix died of apparent tuberculosis, and Melville retired. During his last years, he privately published two volumes of poetry, and left one volume unpublished. The novella Billy Budd was left unfinished at his death, but was published posthumously in 1924. Melville died from cardiovascular disease in 1891.

Title: A Bakery in Paris: A Novel Author: Aimie K. Runyan Narrator: Caroline Hewitt, Imani Jade Powers Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 6 minutes Release date: August 1, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From the author of The School for German Brides, this captivating historical novel set in nineteenth-century and post–World War II Paris follows two fierce women of the same family, generations apart, who find that their futures lie in the four walls of a simple bakery in a tiny corner of Montmartre.   1870: The Prussians are at the city gates, intent to starve Paris into submission. Lisette Vigneau—headstrong, willful, and often ignored by her wealthy parents—awaits the outcome of the war from her parents’ grand home in the Place Royale in the very heart of the city. When an excursion throws her into the path of a revolutionary National Guardsman, Théodore Fournier, her destiny is forever changed. She gives up her life of luxury to join in the fight for a Paris of the People. She opens a small bakery with the hopes of being a vital boon to the impoverished neighborhood in its hour of need. When the city falls into famine, and then rebellion, her resolve to give up the comforts of her past life is sorely tested. 1946: Nineteen-year-old Micheline Chartier is coping with the loss of her father and the disappearance of her mother during the war. In their absence, she is charged with the raising of her two younger sisters. At the hand of a well-meaning neighbor, Micheline finds herself enrolled in a prestigious baking academy with her entire life mapped out for her. Feeling trapped and desperately unequal to the task of raising two young girls, she becomes obsessed with finding her mother. Her classmate at the academy, Laurent Tanet, may be the only one capable of helping Micheline move on from the past and begin creating a future for herself.  Both women must grapple with loss, learn to accept love, and face impossible choices armed with little more than their courage and a belief that a bit of flour, yeast, sugar, and love can bring about a revolution of their own.

On the television, she watches reports of a devastating fire in London. She is already anxious when her parents send her to stay with her Grandpa Yusuf, whose conservative house rules are almost as unbearable as the loneliness she feels at home. Yusuf’s lifestyle does not gel with Rubi’s. But when she finds him scared and confused one night, it becomes clear that there’s more to her grandfather than Rubi ever considered. As Yusuf grapples with the past, Rubi is determined to save him. But the memories that are recovered and spoken of for the first time in years are more painful than she could have imagined. From the Costa Prize-shortlisted author of The Family Tree and Women's Prize x Good Housekeeping Futures Finalist, Hidden Fires is a powerful story of grief and loss, the power of family and the long arm of history.

Title: The Rebels Series: #6 of The Australians Author: Vivian Stuart Narrator: Simon Slater Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 40 minutes Release date: September 15, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The sixth book in the dramatic and intriguing story about the colonisation of Australia: a country built on blood, passion, and dreams. Twenty thousand kilometres and four months of sailing are what stands between England and the colony of Australia. In his struggles to bring order in the colony, and to protect its settlers from abuse of power, and injustice, Governor Bligh is up against some powerful enemies and mischievous schemers. Three strong-minded governors have failed to complete the task before him ... And England seems to have had enough of the war against France. Rebels and outcasts, they fled halfway across the earth to settle the harsh Australian wastelands. Decades later — ennobled by love and strengthened by tragedy — they had transformed a wilderness into a fertile land. And themselves into The Australians.

Канцлер Author: нина соротокина Narrator: юлия тархова Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 29 minutes Release date: August 3, 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, 03 Aug 2022 02:49:54 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/616684 thebookvoice.com 15:29:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/616684]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [German] - Die ersten Tiger: Zweiter Weltkrieg, Ostfront 1942 - Der schwere Panzer Tiger I greift zum ersten Mal an Author: Tom Zola Narrator: Max Kleemann Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 57 minutes Release date: August 4, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Tom Zola ist zurück! Mit seinem Kurzroman »Die ersten Tiger« liefert er einen packenden Erlebnisbericht vom ersten Fronteinsatz des berüchtigten deutschen Kampfpanzers Tiger I »57 Tonnen pure Kraft, 8,8-cm-Kampfwagenkanone 36, bis zu 110 mm Panzerstahl. Diese Dame verspeist T-34 auf 2.000 Meter zum Frühstück.« Mit diesen Worten stellt Dr. Dieter Schirmann, Ingenieur bei Henschel & Sohn, im Sommer 1942 den schweren deutschen Tiger I den staunenden Panzermännern vor. Der Krieg gegen die Sowjetunion läuft nun schon seit fast einem Jahr; und die russischen T-34 haben die deutsche Panzerwaffe in Schock versetzt. Abhilfe soll der neue Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger schaffen. Das Oberkommando der Wehrmacht befiehlt aufgrund der prekären Kriegslage, die ordentliche Erprobung zu überspringen und den Tiger gleich an die Front zu entsenden. Der Auftrag geht an Major Ulrich Mahler, seines Zeichens gefeierter Kriegsheld und mit allen Wassern gewaschener Panzeroffizier. Ihm werden vier Tiger-Panzer unterstellt, mit denen er im Sommer 1942 an der Ostfront für Furore sorgen soll. Kaum im Einsatzgebiet nahe der Leningrad-Front angekommen, muss Mahler jedoch feststellen, dass die Führung vor Ort vom Panzerkrieg nichts versteht. Der erste Kampfeinsatz des Tiger I droht folglich im Desaster zu enden – bei einem Misserfolg wäre der neue Panzer gescheitert, noch ehe die Serienproduktion begonnen hat. Mahler weiß, was auf dem Spiel steht. Und so fasst er in größter Not einen waghalsigen Entschluss … Fiebern Sie mit, wenn die mächtigen Tiger-Panzer zum ersten Mal gegen russische Stellungen vorgehen, wenn die Ketten mahlen und die 8,8-cm-Kanone unter den Abschüssen erzittert. Mit seinem Kurzroman zeichnet Tom Zola den ersten Kampfeinsatz des vielleicht berühmtesten deutschen Kampfpanzers nach. Die geschilderten Ergebnisse orientieren sich nah am realen ersten Einsatz. In seinem Nachwort klärt der Autor über die historischen Hintergründe auf.

Title: Come Down Somewhere Author: Jennifer L. Wright Narrator: Sarah Zimmerman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 29 minutes Release date: September 6, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: For fans of WWII fiction comes a powerful novel by Jennifer L. Wright about two young women coming of age during the Trinity nuclear bomb test in 1945. Sixteen-year-old Olive Alexander has lived on a ranch in the Jornada del Muerto region of southern New Mexico her entire life. But when World War II begins, the government seizes her family’s land for the construction of a new, top secret Army post. While her mother remains behind, Olive is forced to live in nearby Alamogordo with her grandmother and find a place in a new school. When Jo Hawthorne crosses her path, Olive sees a chance for friendship―until she learns that Jo’s father is the Army sergeant who now occupies her beloved ranch. Already angry about her new reality, Olive pushes Jo away. But as she struggles to make sense of her grandmother’s lapses into the past and increasingly unsettling hints about what’s happening at the ranch, she slowly warms to Jo’s winsome faith and steady attempts at friendship . . . until one devastating day when the sky explodes around them and their lives are torn apart. Seven years later, Jo returns to Alamogordo, still angry and wounded by the betrayals of that fateful day. Determined to put the past behind her once and for all, Jo hunts for answers and begins to realize the truth may be far more complicated than she believed, leading her on a desperate search to find her friend before it’s too late.

It’s impossible to come away unchanged.” —KAWAI STRONG WASHBURN, author of the PEN/Hemingway award-winning Sharks in the Times of Saviors Set in Hilo, Hawai’i, a sweeping saga of tradition, culture, family, history, and connection that unfolds through the lives of three generations of women—a tale of mothers and daughters, dance and destiny. “There’s no running away on an island. Soon enough, you end up where you started.” Hi'i is proud to be a Naupaka, a family renowned for its contributions to hula and her hometown of Hilo, Hawaii, but there’s a lot she doesn’t understand. She’s never met her legendary grandmother and her mother has never revealed the identity of her father. Worse, unspoken divides within her tight-knit community have started to grow, creating fractures whose origins are somehow entangled with her own family history. In hula, Hi'i sees a chance to live up to her name and solidify her place within her family legacy. But in order to win the next Miss Aloha Hula competition, she will have to turn her back on everything she had ever been taught, and maybe even lose the very thing she was fighting for. Told in part in the collective voice of a community fighting for its survival, Hula is a spellbinding debut that offers a rare glimpse into a forgotten kingdom that still exists in the heart of its people.

I could not put it down and I could not stop thinking about it long after I’d reached its stunning conclusion. In short: You need to read this book. Right now.”—Joanna Rakoff, bestselling author of My Salinger Year “Thick with the humid air of a Havana summer night, rich with mesmerizing detail, Hotel Cuba will grab you and not let you go.”—Dolen Perkins-Valdez, author of Take My Hand, Balm and Wench From the award-winning author of The View from Stalin's Head, a stunning novel about two sheltered Russian Jewish sisters, desperate to get to America to make a new life, who find themselves trapped in the sultry, hedonistic world of 1920s Havana. Fleeing the chaos of World War I and the terror of the Soviet Revolution, practical, sensible Pearl Kahn and her lovestruck, impulsive younger sibling Frieda sail for America to join their sister in New York. But discriminatory new immigration laws bar their entry, and the young women are turned back at Ellis Island. With few options, Pearl and Frieda head for Havana, Cuba, convinced they will find a way to overcome this setback. At first, life in big-city Prohibition-era Havana is overwhelming, like nothing Pearl and Frieda have ever experienced—or could have ever imagined in the rural shtetl where they grew up. As the sisters begin to adjust, their plans for going to America together become complicated. Frieda falls for the not-so-dreamy man of her dreams while Pearl’s life opens up unexpectedly, offering her a taste of freedom and heady romance, and an opportunity to build a future on her own terms. Though to do so, she must confront her past and the shame she has long carried. A heartbreaking, epic family story, Hotel Cuba explores the profound courage of two women displaced from their home who strive to create a new future in an enticing and dangerous world far different from anything they have ever known.

Title: The Witches of Vardo: THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER: 'Powerful, deeply moving' - Sunday Times Author: Anya Bergman Narrator: Sofia Engstrand Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 30 minutes Release date: January 5, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: They will have justice. They will show their power. They will not burn. 'Three women's fight for survival in a time of madness' Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies Norway, 1662. A dangerous time to be a woman, when even dancing can lead to accusations of witchcraft. After recently widowed Zigri's affair with the local merchant is discovered, she is sent to the fortress at Vardø to be tried as a witch. Zigri's daughter Ingeborg sets off into the wilderness to try to bring her mother back home. Accompanying her on this quest is Maren - herself the daughter of a witch - whose wild nature and unconquerable spirit gives Ingeborg the courage to venture into the unknown, and to risk all she has to save her family. Also captive in the fortress is Anna Rhodius, once the King of Denmark's mistress, who has been sent in disgrace to the island of Vardø. What will she do - and who will she betray - to return to her privileged life at court? These Witches of Vardø are stronger than even the King. In an age weighted against them, they refuse to be victims. They will have their justice. All they need do is show their power. 'An intricately woven, timeless novel about prejudice, misogyny, freedom and the power and strength we can find within' - Christy Lefteri, author of The Beekeeper of Aleppo 'A passionate indictment of the patriarchy ... a vibrant exaltation of the resilience of women ... Anya Bergman summons a historic witch trial with breathtaking detail and immediacy' Hannah Kent, author of Burial Rites 'Brilliant and powerful. Haunting and beautifully written.

Title: World Mythology: A Very Short Introduction Author: David A. Leeming Narrator: Andy Ingalls Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 58 minutes Release date: October 27, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The mythologies of the world are collective cultural dreams, and as such should be analyzed first from cultural perspectives. How do myths of the ancient Egyptians or Greeks, for instance, reflect the realities of the Egyptian and Greek cultures? When compared, however, mythologies reveal certain universal themes or motifs that point to larger trans-cultural issues such as the place of the human species in creation or the nature of deity as a concept. World Mythology: A Very Short Introduction is organized around the universal motifs. Creation, the Flood, the Hero Quest, the Trickster/Culture Hero, the Pantheons, the High God, the Great Goddess. Veteran mythology scholar David Leeming examines examples of each motif from a variety of cultures—Greek, Egyptian, Norse, American Indian, African, Polynesian, Jewish, Christian, Hindu—treating them as reflections of the cultures that 'dreamed' them. He compares and analyzes them, exposing their universal significance and creating a 'world mythology.' David A.

Title: [Spanish] - México sediento Author: Francisco Martín Moreno Narrator: Adrian Ogazón Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 11 minutes Release date: August 11, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «El problema de la disponibilidad de agua en la cuenca del valle de México es una verdadera bomba de tiempo para la ciudad más poblada del planeta.» ¿Podemos imaginar que una sequía pudiera hacer estallar en pedazos el pacto federal mexicano porque un estado, por supervivencia, se negara a dar agua al vecino, o a la mismísima capital de la República? Francisco Martín Moreno da la voz de alarma respecto a la posibilidad de una nueva sequía, como las que han azotado al valle de México desde la época prehispánica. Con su prosa vigorosa y su incansable imaginación, nos revela que la sequía fue el gran detonador de la guerra de Independencia, como también lo fue de la Revolución de 1910. Si se aceptara que ésta determinó nuestro pasado, tomaríamos las medidas para evitar daños posteriores y nos adelantaríamos al futuro para impedir que la catástrofe se apodere de nuevo del destino de la nación. Esta novela, repleta de intrigas políticas, erotismo y anticipación ecológica, nos enseña lo que puede ser el México del mañana si no se da un oportuno y firme golpe de timón.

History is about to change – in the hands of the unlikeliest of culprits. In 841, Viking ships descend on a village in Northumbria. On board is a terrified Ulv, the youngest of the crew. He is not a Viking, not a warrior, not a fighter. Despised by most of Sigurd Jarl’s hird, he must prove his worth as a raider. Risking his life and honour, he faces a battle with enemies on both sides. Standing on the pier, Marcus watches in horror as the Viking ships appear. This time, he is old enough to fight, side by side with the other men, against the scourge of the North. At least, he hopes he can delay the heathens enough for his sister, Julia, to escape. In a twist of fate, both teenage boys end up hiding in a cellar. From there, their destinies are intertwined as friends and enemies, thrall and master, and brothers in arms. Follow Ulv, Marcus, Julia and the whole band of Viking misfits as they change the course of history. In the epic story of ‘Viking Ventures’, you meet historical figures like Ragnar Lothbrok and Charles the Bald. Witness the occupation of Dublin and the siege of Paris. Visit Hedeby and Rouen, and take part in battles, sieges and duels.

Julia stood barefoot in the mud in front of the doors of the great hall in Dubh Linn. Through the thin veil that covered her face, she could see Princess Ailbi shivering in the cold spring air. It would soon be warm enough. The doors opened slowly inwards by somebody not visible from the outside. Torches fluttered in the gloom inside, and between light and shadows there were figures. Unmoving, waiting. Like a gathering of cats waiting for a sparrow. Ailbi took a hesitant step, then another. She straightened her back and strode into the main hall. As terrified and proud as only a princess can be. Julia followed her. To the left, her Irish companion pulled a foot up from the mud with a squelch. Soon, there were similar noises behind her as ten bridesmaids took their first steps towards the door to Torgils’s great hall. Inside, Julia felt the warmth from the fireplace and the torches. And the cold from the men waiting for them. The enemy. Fear and anticipation sent a shiver through her body. The sudden movement drew many eyes to her. From behind her veil, Julia studied their faces. Closest to her, farthest from the throne, stood half a dozen tall men with broad shoulders, mighty fists, and golden rings and bracelets. They were veteran warriors, probably of Torgils’s hird. The bridesmaids were surrounded. They were bait. The trap was set. 'Free' is the third book in the trilogy 'Viking Ventures'.

At an abandoned château on the outskirts of Paris, a dark séance is about to take place, led by acclaimed spiritualist Vaudeline D’Allaire. Known worldwide for her talent in conjuring the spirits of murder victims to ascertain the identities of the people who killed them, she is highly sought after by widows and investigators alike. Lenna Wickes has come to Paris to find answers about her sister’s death, but to do so, she must embrace the unknown and overcome her own logic-driven bias against the occult.

Through a stroke of luck, he’s landed a New Deal assignment to create a mural representing the region for their new Post Office. A wealthy art lover named John Long and his wife Eve have agreed to host Val at their sprawling ranch. Rumors and intrigue surround the couple: Eve left behind an itinerant life riding the rails and singing in a western swing band. Long holds shady political aspirations, but was once a WWI sniper—and his right hand is a mysterious elder cowboy, a vestige of the violent old west. Val quickly finds himself entranced by their lives. One day, Eve flees home with a valuable painting in tow, and Long recruits Val to hit the road with a mission of tracking her down. Journeying from ramshackle Hoovervilles to San Francisco nightclubs to the swamps of Florida, Val's search for Eve narrows, and he soon turns up secrets that could spark formidable changes for all of them. In The Trackers, singular American writer Charles Frazier conjures up the lives of everyday people during an extraordinary period of history that bears uncanny resemblance to our own. With the keen perceptions of humanity and transcendent storytelling that have made him beloved for decades, Frazier has created a powerful and timeless new classic.

Don Quijote en verso Author: Alexis Díaz-Pimienta Narrator: Alexis Díaz-Pimienta Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 16 minutes Release date: September 21, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «El Don Quijote que ahora alumbra Alexis Díaz-Pimienta es un canto de amor tan fiel al Don Quijote de hace cinco siglos que nos hace sentir no como traición, sino como sutil y gentil contrapunto que ha estado todo ese tiempo madurando, macerando, esperando su momento, el espacio en blanco que sigue a la pausa versal y la traviesa inventiva que destilan sus estrofas (…) el Don Quijote de Alexis Díaz Pimienta tiene en común con el de Cervantes algo de lo que casi ningún otro de sus avatares se puede preciar: los dos son hijos de ingenios y sensibilidades que vivieron inmersos en culturas esencialmente orales, reminiscencias de mundos que fueron en buena medida sonoros antes de que se desvanecieran, en el camino abajo que va de la voz a la letra, los timbres, tonos y ritmos —y ruidos, gritos y estruendos— que no pueden encontrar reflejo fidedigno en la escritura».

Title: [Spanish] - Las tejedoras de ilusiones: Soñaron un mundo diferente en la América de 1900 Author: Graciela Ramos Narrator: Belén Prieto Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 54 minutes Release date: August 15, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Dos hermanas huérfanas que viven en un pequeño pueblo de Italia emigran a América a principios del siglo XX. Llegan a Nueva York y se instalan en Little Italy, el barrio italiano de la Gran Manzana, donde encuentran trabajo en una fábrica de textiles. Arman allí una nueva vida, compartida con otras mujeres inmigrantes, hasta que un incendio fatal en la fábrica cambiará drásticamente su destino. Dos hermanas huérfanas, que viven en un pequeño poblado en Italia, deciden emigrar a América siguiendo los deseos de su madre. Estamos en los primeros años del siglo XX, cuando la emigración europea al continente americano estaba en pleno apogeo. El plan inicial era viajar a la Argentina, donde las esperaba un tío, pero una confusión con los pasajes de barco hace que terminen llegando a Nueva York. Una vez instaladas en el barrio italiano de la ciudad, Little Italy, Giuseppina consigue trabajo en la cocina de un restaurante y Raffaella en una fábrica de textiles. Pronto traban amistad con tres hermanas, inmigrantes como ellas, y comienzan una nueva vida del otro lado del océano, llena de esperanzas e ilusiones. Pero no todo va a salir como lo imaginaban. La tragedia llama a la puerta y una venganza impensada hace que tengan que huir, esta vez sí con dirección al sur, hacia la Argentina. Las tejedoras de ilusiones es la nueva y esperada novela de Graciela Ramos, que nos ofrece una historia de resiliencia, de amor y de solidaridad en los albores del siglo XX.

Title: Song of Batoche Author: Maia Caron Narrator: Pj Prudat Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 34 minutes Release date: April 25, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Louis Riel arrives at Batoche in 1884 to help the Métis fight for their lands and discovers that the rebellious outsider Josette Lavoie is a granddaughter of the famous chief Big Bear, whom he needs as an ally. But Josette learns of Riel’s hidden agenda — to establish a separate state with his new church at its head — and refuses to help him. Only when the great Gabriel Dumont promises her that he will not let Riel fail does she agree to join the cause. In this raw wilderness on the brink of change, the lives of seven unforgettable characters converge, each one with secrets: Louis Riel and his tortured wife Marguerite; a duplicitous Catholic priest; Gabriel Dumont and his dying wife Madeleine; a Hudson’s Bay Company spy; and the enigmatic Josette Lavoie. As the Dominion Army marches on Batoche, Josette and Gabriel must manage Riel’s escalating religious fanaticism and a growing attraction to each other. Song of Batoche is a timeless story that traces the borderlines of faith and reason, obsession and madness, betrayal and love.

A heartrending story about a young mother’s fight to keep her daughter, and the terrible injustice that tears them apart, by the USA Today bestselling author of The Nature of Fragile Things and The Last Year of the War.   California, 1938—When she loses her parents in an accident, sixteen-year-old Rosanne is taken in by the owners of the vineyard where she has lived her whole life as the vinedresser’s daughter. She moves into Celine and Truman Calvert’s spacious house with a secret, however—Rosie sees colors when she hears sound. She promised her mother she’d never reveal her little-understood ability to anyone, but the weight of her isolation and grief prove too much for her. Driven by her loneliness she not only breaks the vow to her mother, but in a desperate moment lets down her guard and ends up pregnant. Banished by the Calverts, Rosanne believes she is bound for a home for unwed mothers. But she soon finds out she is not going to a home of any kind, but to a place that seeks to forcibly take her baby – and the chance for any future babies – from her. Austria, 1947—After witnessing firsthand Adolf Hitler’s brutal pursuit of hereditary purity—especially with regard to “different children”—Helen Calvert, Truman’s sister, is ready to return to America for good. But when she arrives at her brother’s peaceful vineyard after decades working abroad, she is shocked to learn what really happened nine years earlier to the vinedresser’s daughter, a girl whom Helen had long ago befriended. In her determination to find Rosanne, Helen discovers a shocking American eugenics program—and learns that that while the war had been won in Europe, there are still terrifying battles to be fought at home.

Last stop on the train ride to hell. Welcome to Ironhead Station, Indian Territory, where the train tracks end and the real action begins. The hell-on-wheels construction camp is the final destination for hard-drinking sinners, gamblers, and outlaws. And woe to the man who tries to clean it up. Morgan Clyde is a former New York City policeman and Union sharpshooter who lost everything in the Civil War. But he’s still got his guns and his guts. Some folks say he is meaner and tougher than the Devil himself. Which is why the owners of the MK&T Railroad hired Clyde for one hell of a job. They plan to extend the rails through Indian Territory, connecting Missouri and Kansas to Texas … But the ornery citizens of Ironhead Station want to keep things just the way they are. They’ve already killed the first two lawmen who tried to tame their town. Now they’ve put together a welcome wagon to greet Clyde, including one half-mad preacher, one hillbilly assassin, and twenty train-robbing bushwhackers. They’re laying plans to stop the railroad dead in its tracks—along with their new lawman. There’s just two things the folks of Ironhead Station didn’t take into account: you can’t stop the wheels of progress. And you can’t stop a legend like Morgan Clyde.

Closed off to love, and driven as much by her innate talent as she is the disillusionment of her past, Annalisa just wants to come into her own. The first step is leaving Payton Mills and everything it represents. The next, the inspiring opportunities in the city of Portland and a thriving New England art scene where Annalisa hopes to find her voice. But she meets Thomas, an Ivy League student whose attentions—and troubled family—upend her pursuits in ways she never imagined possible. As their relationship deepens, Annalisa must balance her dreams against an unexpected love. Until the unraveling of an unforgivable lie. For Annalisa, opening herself up to life and to love is a risk. It might also be the chance she needs to finally become the person and the artist she’s meant to be.

Title: The Way of the Bear: A Novel Series: #8 of A Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito Novel Author: Anne Hillerman Narrator: Delanna Studi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 37 minutes Release date: April 25, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.57 of Total 7 Ratings of Narrator: 4 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Fossil harvesting, ancient lore, greed, rejected love and murder combine in this gripping new installment of New York Times bestselling author Anne Hillerman’s Leaphorn, Chee & Manuelito series. An unexpected death on a lonely road outside of Utah’s Bears Ears National Monument raises questions for Navajo Tribal Police officers Jim Chee and Bernadette Manuelito. Why would a seasoned outdoorsman and well-known paleontologist freeze to death within walking distance of his car? A second death brings more turmoil. Who is the unidentified man killed during a home invasion where nothing much seems to have been taken? Why was he murdered? The Bears Ears area, at the edge of the Navajo Nation, is celebrated for its abundance of early human habitation sites and the discovery of unique fossils which revolutionized the scientific view of how early animals dealt with their changing world. Chee and Manuelito appreciate the area’s scenery and wealth of human and scientific resources, but their visit to this achingly beautiful place is disrupted by a current of unprecedented violence that sweeps them both into danger. Illicit romance, a fossilized jawbone, hints of witchcraft, and a mysterious disappearance during a blizzard add to the peril. It takes all of Manuelito’s and Chee’s experience, skill, and intuition to navigate the threats that arise and see justice served. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Title: The Poison Machine Author: Robert J. Lloyd Narrator: Dan Calley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 38 minutes Release date: October 25, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: London, 1679—A year has passed since the attempt to murder King Charles II, but London is still a viper's nest of rumored Catholic conspiracies, and of plots against them in turn. When Harry Hunt—estranged from his mentor Robert Hooke—is summoned to the remote and windswept marshes of Norfolk, he is at first relieved to get away from the place. But in Norfolk, he finds that some Royal workers shoring up a riverbank have made a grim discovery—the skeleton of a dwarf. Harry is able to confirm that the skeleton is that of Captain Jeffrey Hudson, a prominent member of the court once famously given to the Queen in a pie. Except no one knew Hudson was dead, because another man had been impersonating him. The hunt for the impersonator, clearly working as a spy, will take Harry to Paris, another city bedeviled by conspiracies and intrigues, and back, with encounters along the way with a flying man and a cross-dressing swordswoman—and to the uncovering of a plot to kill the Queen and all the Catholic members of her court. But where? When? The Poison Machine is a brilliantly imagined historical thriller that will delight readers of its critically acclaimed predecessor, The Bloodless Boy. Robert J.

The Poison Machine is a brilliantly imagined historical thriller that will delight readers of its critically acclaimed predecessor, The Bloodless Boy. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/613525 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/613525]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: Death on a Deadline Author: Joyce St. Anthony Narrator: Erin Dion Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 46 minutes Release date: November 8, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: As World War II rages in Europe and in the Pacific, the small town of Progress is doing its part for the soldiers in the field with a war bond drive at the annual county fair. Town gossip Ava Dempsey starts a rumor that Clark Gable will be among the participating stars. Instead of Gable, though, the headliner is Freddie Harrison, a B-movie star. When Freddie turns up dead in the dunk tank, Irene Ingram, editor-in-chief of The Progress Herald, starts chasing the real headline. There are plenty of suspects and little evidence. Ava’s sister Angel, who was married to the dead actor, is the most obvious. The couple had argued about his affair with the young starlet Belinda Fox, and Angel was the last person to see Freddie alive. But Irene discovers there’s more than one person who might have wanted Freddie dead. As she draws on her well-honed reporter’s instincts to find the killer, nothing is what it seems in Progress—and now her own deadline could be right around the corner.

As the war grinds on, trapped between two brutal dictatorships, Alexsi betrays both sides in a desperate ploy that succeeds...and fails.

Title: [Spanish] - A orillas del mar. Premio Nobel de Literatura 2021 Author: Abdulrazak Gurnah Narrator: Rafael King, Javier Viñas Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 37 minutes Release date: July 28, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Una conmovedora historia sobre el exilio, el amor y la traición, del Premio Nobel de Literatura 2021. Huyendo de la mítica isla de Zanzíbar, tierra de mercaderes de perfumes y especias acunada por los monzones, Saleh Omar, un comerciante de 65 años, llega al aeropuerto de Gatwick con una caja de caoba llena de incienso y un pasaporte falso. Para comunicarse con él, los servicios sociales recurren a Latif Mahmud, un poeta experto en suajili, profesor y exiliado voluntario que vive apaciblemente en un apartamento de Londres. Cuando los dos hombres se encuentran en una pequeña ciudad junto al mar, una larga historia de amores y traiciones, seducciones y decepción, azarosos desplazamientos y litigios iniciada mucho tiempo atrás empieza a desenmarañarse. La crítica ha dicho... «El modo en que Abdulrazak Gurnah plantea la amistad como una forma de pertenencia es profundo y emocionante. [...] Estamos ante uno de esos autores que poseen un enorme instinto narrativo y apuntalan sus ideas encarnándolas en personajes y poniéndolas en acción. El modo en que en esta novela la historia del silencioso protagonista se multiplica en muchas otras historias pone de manifiesto una de las singularidades del último Nobel: su mundo literario surge del choque entre África y Europa, pero retiene cierto brillo seductor del mundo árabe y persa.» El Correo «Nos encontramos aquí con un viejo comerciante que escapa de la isla de Zanzíbar, con pasaporte falso. Así las cosas, contactará con alguien de los servicios sociales, un poeta experto en suajili, en una pequeña ciudad junto al mar, lo que destapa una historia de amores y traiciones, desplazamientos y litigios originada mucho tiempo atrás. Una novela que, tras su argumento, contiene graves observaciones sobre el racismo, el imperialismo y el desconocimiento generalizado de la realidad africana.» La Vanguardia «Rara es la ocasión en que abres un libro y descubres que encierra los fascinantes rasgos de una historia de amor. [...] Y mientras lees, apenas te atreves a respirar por miedo a romper el hechizo.» The Times «Un manifiesto poético contra la tiranía del lenguaje cuando se utiliza como una herramienta de los estados.» The Observer «Una novela absorbente, llena de atinadas observaciones sobre el racismo, el imperialismo y el desconocimiento de las realidades africanas.» The New York Times Abdulrazak Gurnah Thu, 28 Jul 2022 02:49:54 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/613394 thebookvoice.com 11:37:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/613394]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Told in three parts, this multi-generational tale is wonderfully heartwarming!” —Madeline Martin, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Bookshop in London Leedswick Castle has housed the Alnwick family in the English countryside for generations, despite a family curse determined to destroy their legacy and erase them from history. 1870. After a disastrous dinner at the Astor mansion forces her to flee New York in disgrace, socialite Beatrice Holbrook knows her performance in London must be a triumph. When she catches the eye of Charles Alnwick, one of the town’s most enviably titled bachelors, she prepares to attempt a social coup and become the future Marchioness of Northridge. Then tragedy and scandal strike the Alnwick family, and Beatrice must assume the role of a lifetime: that of her true, brave self. 1917. Artist Elena Hamilton arrives in Northumberland determined to transform a soldier’s wounds into something beautiful. Tobias Alnwick’s parents have commissioned a lifelike mask to help their son return to his former self after battle wounds partially destroyed his face. But Elena doesn’t see a man who needs fixing—she sees a man who needn’t hide. Yet secrets from their past threaten to chase away the peace they’ve found in each other and destroy the future they’re creating. 1945. Alec Alnwick returns home from the war haunted but determined to leave death and destruction behind. With the help of Brigitta Mayr, the brilliant young psychoanalyst whose correspondence was a lifeline during his time on the Western Front, he reconstructs his family’s large estate into a rehabilitation center for similarly wounded soldiers. Alec’s efforts may be the only chance to redeem his family legacy—and break the curse on the Alnwick name—once and for all. Three beloved authors share stories of the Alnwick family through the generations, revealing how love and war can change a place—but only its people can unshackle it from the misdeeds of the past. - Multiple historical timelines following generations of one family - Stand-alone collection of connected stories J'nell Ciesielski, Rachel Mcmillan, Aimie K.

Title: Daughter Dalloway: A Brilliant Spin-off of the Virginia Woolf Classic Author: Emily France Narrator: Sasha Higgins, Hannah Curtis Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 48 minutes Release date: March 14, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Perfect for fans of Marie Benedict and Renée Rosen, Daughter Dalloway is both an homage to the Virginia Woolf classic and a brilliant spin-off—the empowering, rebellious coming-of-age story of Mrs. Dalloway’s only child, Elizabeth. London, 1952: Forty-six-year-old Elizabeth Dalloway feels she has failed at most everything in life, especially living up to her mother, the elegant Mrs. Dalloway, an ideal socialite and model of perfection until she disappeared in the summer of 1923—and hasn’t been heard from since. When Elizabeth is handed a medal with a mysterious inscription from her mother to a soldier named Septimus Warren Smith, she’s certain it contains a clue from the past. As she sets out, determined to deliver the medal to its rightful owner, Elizabeth begins to piece together memories of that fateful summer. London, 1923: At seventeen, Elizabeth carouses with the Prince of Wales and sons of American iron barons and decides to join the Bright Young People—a group of bohemians whose antics often land in the tabloids. She is a girl who rebels against the staid social rules of the time, a girl determined to do it all differently than her mother. A girl who doesn’t yet feel like a failure. That summer, Octavia Smith braves the journey from the countryside to London, determined to track down her older brother Septimus who returned from the war but never came home. She falls in with a group of clever city boys who have learned to survive on the streets. When one starts to steal her heart, she must discover whether he is a friend or foe—and whether she can make it in the city on her own. Elizabeth and Octavia are destined to cross paths, and when they do, the truths they unearth will shatter their understanding of the people they love most.

London, 1923: At seventeen, Elizabeth carouses with the Prince of Wales and sons of American iron barons and decides to join the Bright Young People—a group of bohemians whose antics often land in the tabloids. She is a girl who rebels against the staid social rules of the time, a girl determined to do it all differently than her mother. A girl who doesn’t yet feel like a failure. That summer, Octavia Smith braves the journey from the countryside to London, determined to track down her older brother Septimus who returned from the war but never came home. She falls in with a group of clever city boys who have learned to survive on the streets. When one starts to steal her heart, she must discover whether he is a friend or foe—and whether she can make it in the city on her own. Elizabeth and Octavia are destined to cross paths, and when they do, the truths they unearth will shatter their understanding of the people they love most.

Title: The Library at the Edge of the World: A Novel Series: #1 of Finfarran Peninsula Author: Felicity Hayes-Mccoy Narrator: Marcella Riordan Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 11 minutes Release date: April 18, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “Heart-warming . . . reminiscent of Maeve Binchy and Roisin Meaney.” —Irish Examiner In the bestselling tradition of Fannie Flagg and Jenny Colgan comes Felicity Hayes-McCoy’s U.S. debut about a local librarian who must find a way to rebuild her community and her own life in this touching, enchanting novel set on Ireland’s stunning West Coast. As she drives her mobile library van between villages of Ireland’s West Coast, Hanna Casey tries not to think about a lot of things. Like the sophisticated lifestyle she abandoned after finding her English barrister husband in bed with another woman. Or that she’s back in Lissbeg, the rural Irish town she walked away from in her teens, living in the back bedroom of her overbearing mother’s retirement bungalow. Or, worse yet, her nagging fear that, as the local librarian and a prominent figure in the community, her failed marriage and ignominious return have made her a focus of gossip. With her teenage daughter, Jazz, off traveling the world and her relationship with her own mother growing increasingly tense, Hanna is determined to reclaim her independence by restoring a derelict cottage left to her by her great-aunt. But when the threatened closure of the Lissbeg Library puts her personal plans in jeopardy, Hanna finds herself leading a battle to restore the heart and soul of the Finfarran Peninsula’s fragmented community. And she’s about to discover that the neighbors she’d always kept at a distance have come to mean more to her than she ever could have imagined. Told with heart and abundant charm, The Library at the Edge of the World is a joyous story about the meaning of home and the importance of finding a place where you truly belong.

The powerful Vermeil family to whom they belong is eager to learn more and asks Flora to trace the history of each painting. Despite a shocking announcement that has left her own family reeling, Flora finds herself thrown into the glamorous world of the Vermeils. But she soon realizes there is more to this project than first appears. As she researches the provenance of their prize Renoir, she uncovers a scandal surrounding the painting—and a secret that goes to the very heart of the family. The fallout will place Flora in the eye of a storm that carries her from London to Vienna to the glittering coast of Provence. Xavier Vermeil, the brusque scion of the family, is determined to separate Flora from his family's affairs in spite of their powerful attraction to one another. Just what are the secrets he is desperately trying to hide? And what price is Flora willing to pay to uncover the devastating truth…? “The Paris Secret had me from the moment I started reading. Filled with a smart and sympathetic protagonist, a touch of romance, a smidgen of history, plenty of intrigue and suspense galore.”—Diane Chamberlain, internationally bestselling author of The Midwife's Confession https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/612383 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/612383]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Distintas formas de mirar el agua Author: Julio Llamazares Narrator: Carolina Lapausa, Antonio Alfonso Hernández Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 30 minutes Release date: July 28, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: ¿Puedes regresar a un lugar del que nunca te marchaste? Una novela sobre el destierro, la memoria y la nostalgia de lo perdido. «La gente no sabe muchas veces lo que debajo del agua se oculta ni la historia que se borró para siempre con la demolición del último de los pueblos que aquí existieron. De ahí que algunos exclamen mientras lo contemplan: '¡Qué bonito!'... Y qué triste, añado yo.» En medio de un paisaje hermoso y desolador, la muerte del abuelo reúne a todos los miembros de una familia. Junto al pantano que anegó su hogar hace casi medio siglo y donde reposarán para siempre las cenizas de Domingo, cada uno reflexiona en silencio sobre su relación con él y con los demás, y sobre cómo el destierro marcó la existencia de todos ellos. Desde la abuela a la nieta más pequeña, desde el recuerdo de la aldea que los mayores se vieron obligados a abandonar a las historias y pensamientos de los más jóvenes, esta novela es el relato coral de unas vidas sin vuelta atrás, un caleidoscopio narrativo y teatral al que la superficie del pantano sirve de espejo. No existe una única forma de mirar el agua, pero el sentimiento de desarraigo, de exilio definitivo, ha permeado gota a gota a esta familia, generación tras generación. Tal vez porque ningún lugar duele tanto como aquel al que jamás podrás volver si no es desde el recuerdo o una vez muerto. Pero lo importante es regresar, como Ulises a Ítaca. No importa cómo ni de qué forma. La crítica ha dicho... «Espero que no me ciegue la amistad si les digo que en Distintas formas de mirar el agua está el mejor Llamazares: el de La lluvia amarilla, pero también el de Las lágrimas de San Lorenzo.» Manuel Rodríguez Rivero, Babelia «Llamazares es sobre todo un poeta; de hecho, el ritmo de su escritura en prosa es deudor de esa ambición de asociar las palabras (y la memoria, que es su fuente) con el ritmo; la música es consustancial con su narrativa, y eso le viene de la poesía.» Juan Cruz, El País «Julio Llamazares construye en Distintas formas de mirar el agua una hermosa novela a la altura de los grandes narradores del siglo.» Luis García, Córdoba «Resulta difícil resistirse a este libro en el plano emocional, dada la mucha verdad de los sentimientos que alberga, como hermosa resulta la elegía a los orígenes campesinos o la figura del abuelo, centro del círculo sobre el que gira toda la novela.» ABC Cultural «Una novela cargada de bella y honda polisemia literaria.» Diario de León «Un escritor de su categoría podría redactar los anuncios por palabras de un periódico y seguiría siendo interesante.» Qué Leer Julio Llamazares Thu, 28 Jul 2022 02:49:54 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/612378 thebookvoice.com 3:30:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/612378]]> to listen full audiobooks.

I was the favored maid of George and Martha Washington, but they deemed me a slave and thought me property, and I hear ten dollars is offered as reward for my capture. Now I must write the truth that I have lived, and tell my story…” Chincoteague, Virginia, present day. Rain soaks Tessa Scott as she runs from her car to the old vine-covered property she has been called to survey. She’s too busy to accept a new job, but doing this favor for the grandmother of her childhood sweetheart delays a painful decision she must make about a future with her controlling boyfriend. But when Tessa finds a tattered journal carefully hidden inside the house’s ancient fireplace, the tragic story of how Ona was ripped from her mother’s arms to live and work in the palatial Mount Vernon, and the heart-shattering betrayal that led her to risk her life and run, has Tessa spellbound. Could discovering this forgotten scandal at the heart of her nation’s history force her to confront her own story?

Title: [Spanish] - El laberinto de la rosa Author: Titania Hardie Narrator: Esther Cordero Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 44 minutes Release date: July 21, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Un simple pergamino y una llave de plata. Un secreto transmitido de generación en generación. Un misterio a la espera de ser desvelado. Una madre lega en su testamento un misterioso escrito y una sencilla llave de plata al menor de los hermanos. La tradición familiar establece que dichos objetos pasen de madres a hijas, pero ella, al tener únicamente hijos varones, se devana los sesos durante las últimas semanas de su vida para decidir qué hacer con aquellas curiosas menudencias sin valor aparente que habían permanecido en el seno de la familia durante generaciones. Tal vez debería recibirlas Alex, pero siempre ha estado muy unida a Will, y aunque en verdad ama por igual a ambos, ella se aferra al presentimiento de que este último es el destinatario más idóneo. El documento parece tener mucho que decir. Un enigma por descifrar, un legado por desenterrar, un corazón por curar.

Title: Viking (The Viking Ventures Trilogy - Book 1) Author: Tony Bakkejord, Ole åsli Narrator: Nick Denton Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 23 minutes Release date: July 12, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.75 of Total 4 Ratings of Narrator: 4.33 of Total 3 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: History is about to change – in the hands of the unlikeliest of culprits. In 841, Viking ships descend on a village in Northumbria. On board is a terrified Ulv, the youngest of the crew. He is not a Viking, not a warrior, not a fighter. Despised by most of Sigurd Jarl’s hird, he must prove his worth as a raider. Risking his life and honour, he faces a battle with enemies on both sides. Standing on the pier, Marcus watches in horror as the Viking ships appear. This time, he is old enough to fight, side by side with the other men, against the scourge of the North. At least, he hopes he can delay the heathens enough for his sister, Julia, to escape. In a twist of fate, both teenage boys end up hiding in a cellar. From there, their destinies are intertwined as friends and enemies, thrall and master, and brothers in arms. Follow Ulv, Marcus, Julia and the whole band of Viking misfits as they change the course of history. In the epic story of ‘Viking Ventures’, you meet historical figures like Ragnar Lothbrok and Charles the Bald. Witness the occupation of Dublin and the siege of Paris. Visit Hedeby and Rouen, and take part in battles, sieges and duels.

Title: A World with No Shore Author: Hélène Gaudy Narrator: Katherine Littrell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 6 minutes Release date: April 12, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The surprise French bestseller—a brilliant contemporary twist on the historical novel I can’t go with you. Spring 1897: Anna Charlier farewells her fiancé Nils, the explorer, as he sets off to conquer the world. She will endure many years of waiting and the unknown, will marry and move continents, but will never be able to forget. Summer 1930, Svalbard, Norway: a walrus-hunting boat sets sail for White Island, one of the last lands before the North Pole. The melting ice has revealed terrain that is usually inaccessible. As they move across the island, the men discover bodies and the remains of a makeshift camp. It is the solution to a mystery that has hung in the air for thirty-three years: the disappearance in July 1897 of Salomon August Andrée, Knut Frænkel, and Nils Strindberg as they tried to reach the North Pole in a hot air balloon. Among the remains some rolls of negatives are found, and one hundred images are retrieved. Based on these lunar-like black-and-white photographs and the expedition logbook, Hélène Gaudy retraces and reimagines this great adventure that was blown off course, weaving in the painfully beautiful love affair of Nils and Anna. From the conquest of the skies to the exploration of the poles, this haunting and brilliant award-winning novel, set in the ethereal landscape of the Arctic, reflects on the human need to discover, describe, conquer, and ultimately shrink the world. For fans of Anna Funder, Maggie O’Farrell, Eleanor Catton, and W. G. Sebald.

The year is 1861, the eve of Abraham Lincoln’s inauguration. For Kate Warn, the first female private detective in American history, the only assignment tougher than exposing a conspiracy to assassinate the new president is training her new mentee, Hattie MacLaughlin, in the art of detection.

Title: 76 Hours: A Novel of Tarawa Author: Larry Alexander Narrator: John Pirhalla, Brian Nishii Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 48 minutes Release date: March 14, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 2 Ratings of Narrator: 4.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The gripping historical novel of the invasion of Tarawa by US Marines in World War II, from bestselling author, journalist, and historian Larry Alexander. The island of Tarawa, a tiny spit of sand out in the middle of the Pacific, teemed with five hundred pillboxes filled with artillery pieces and highly motivated Japanese soldiers. Their commanding officer encouraged his troops, saying, “It would take one million men one hundred years” to conquer Tarawa. They were convinced that the Americans would be slaughtered before they ever got ashore. Private Pete “Hardball” Talbot was one of the US Marines tasked with taking the island. A cocky, tough street kid from Philadelphia, Pete joined up to escape his abusive father. In his mind, nothing the Japanese could throw at him could be as bad as what his father dished out. He was angry, and more than willing to take it out on the enemy. But once he climbed over the side and into the landing craft, and once the Japanese artillery and machine guns opened up in defense of the island, Pete knew this was going to be different. It would take all his training, and all his street smarts to stay alive while those around him got blown to bits. Despite Japanese predictions, it took the United States Marines seventy-six hours to take Tarawa. It was a walk in the park … if the park were in the middle of hell itself.

After thirty years as a Cambridge academic, Newton takes up a new post at the Royal Mint in the Tower of London. But the work doesn't stay peaceful: soon he finds himself asking questions within drinking dens of ill-repute, in pursuit of a notorious counterfeiting gang. Can he stop their plans to set off a financial crash that will bring down the Government? In Nemesis, Isaac Newton must contend not only with opponents to his currency plans, but also with a French secret agent who is aiding the theft of England's entire supply of silver. When a wagon of silver is stolen, and his close colleague murdered, Newton must face facts: he's been betrayed. But is he able to protect his country from the same fate? From the writer of McLevy, these are fun, gripping and irresistible tales of thugs and villains, treasure and treachery, and the scientific logic which might just save an entire country...

Title: [Spanish] - La ciudad que el diablo se llevó Author: David Toscana Narrator: Jaime Collepardo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 36 minutes Release date: July 19, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Después de la destrucción, ¿qué queda para volver a empezar?, se pregunta David Toscana en La ciudad que el diablo se llevó, una novela coral que hace de la imaginación un proceso de supervivencia en un país devastado por la Segunda Guerra Mundial, donde el futuro parece que no llega nunca. Feliks, Kazimierz, Eugeniusz y Ludwick conviven con las heridas de una ciudad que no acaba de resucitar y recorren las ruinas de Varsovia como si recorrieran sus propias vidas despedazadas por la guerra: entre paseos que se adentran en los escombros, borracheras que miran al abismo, libros perdidos y reescritos interminablemente o cementerios donde germinan historias de vivos y muertos. Junto a ellos, Olga, Marianka, las hermanas Kasia y Gosia, un barbero, un escritor y un grupo de presos comprenden que sobrevivir significa reconstruir partiendo de las ruinas y que el sentido de la existencia está en la belleza, donde sea que haya que buscarla. Una novela sobre la supervivencia y las ruinas de nuestro tiempo.

Title: [Spanish] - La canción del bisonte Author: Antonio Pérez Henares Narrator: Enrique Cañizares Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 25 minutes Release date: July 28, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Hubo un tiempo en que sobre la tierra coexistían dos especies humanas: sapiens y neandertales. ¿Qué ocurrió para que una de ellas desapareciera sin dejar rastro? Con la llegada de la desoladora glaciación, ambas especies se enfrentaron en la primera y más terrible guerra de la humanidad, que acabaría con la extinción total de una de ellas. Así daría comienzo el dominio del mundo por parte de la única especie capaz, al mismo tiempo, de la peor violencia y de la mayor compasión. Rigurosa, emocionante, pura aventura, la nueva novela de Antonio Pérez Henares es la mejor manera de conocer a nuestros antepasados, sus creencias, sus miedos, sus primeras expresiones artísticas, su organización social y el papel de hombres y mujeres en la cotidiana e inexorable lucha por sobrevivir entre bisontes, uros, rinocerontes, lobos y leones cavernarios. La crítica ha dicho sobre La canción del bisonte... «Esta novela está llamada a cambiar por completo nuestra noción de la Prehistoria. Los neandertales fueron humanos con inquietudes trascendentes. Nuestra especie les debe mucho más de lo que pensamos.» Javier Sierra «¿Y si la Prehistoria fue la verdadera Edad de Oro de la humanidad? Una novela que no dejará indiferente a nadie. Reveladora.» Juan Luis Arsuaga «Henares acierta. Narrando nuestros ancestros, loa a la Naturaleza y a un momento definitorio en el remoto pasado.» El cultural de El Mundo «Una recreación histórica, emocionante, didáctica y visual a partes iguales; y una magnífica fuente de documentación que nos descubre nuestros orígenes y posiblemente los de la humanidad.» Anika entre libros «Una novela iniciática que lleva al lector 30.000 años atrás en la historia de nuestra humanidad, cuando el Homo Sapiens y los neandertales estaban en guerra. Esta es la brillante historia del libro El canto del bisonte del autor español Antonio Pérez Henares.» La Gaceta de Nimes «Antonio Pérez Henares nos lleva a una inmersión asombrosa en tiempos prehistóricos. Esta novela bien documentada logra combinar amor y aventura mientras plantea la cuestión de la desaparición de los neandertales...» El mensajero Picard «¡Un fresco deslumbrante! Un verdadero flechazo.» Radio JM «Totalmente exótico, magníficamente documentado.» Radio Arcachon «En el cruce de Ken Follett y Pascal Picq, el gigante del periodismo español Pérez Henares acaba de inventar un nuevo género: el thriller de cuevas.» Julie Malaure. Le Point «Un gran flechazo por este libro que nos revela los misterios de la desaparición de los neandertales en beneficio del Homo sapiens. Me dejé llevar por la historia imaginada por el autor. Una historia fabulosa siguiendo los pasos de dos especies humanas que pisó la tierra al mismo tiempo. Este libro atraerá tanto a los paleoantropólogos como a los novatos. Una novela histórica que nos da una pausa para pensar en los inicios de la humanidad, cuando el planeta era virgen de todas las degradaciones que los humanos le han causado sometido desde sus inicios.» Taller de litote Antonio Pérez Henares Thu, 28 Jul 2022 02:49:54 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/606061 thebookvoice.com 15:25:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/606061]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: A Brilliant Night of Stars and Ice Author: Rebecca Connolly Narrator: Alana Kerr Collins, Antony Ferguson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 9 minutes Release date: April 5, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Based on the remarkable true story of the Carpathia—the only ship and her legendary captain who answered the distress call of the sinking Titanic. Just after midnight on April 15, 1912, the passenger steamship Carpathia receives a distress signal from the largest passenger liner ever built, RMS Titanic, which is on its maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York. Captain Arthur Rostron is awakened to an enormous maritime emergency with little information to guide his actions in answering the call for help. Is the dire threat to the unsinkable Titanic accurate? His ship is more than four hours away; will Carpathia hold together if pushed to never-before-tested speeds? What if his ship also strikes an iceberg? How many of Titanic’s 2,200 passengers will the Carpathia be able to accommodate? And with the freezing temperatures, will there be any survivors by the time the Carpathia arrives? Kate Connolly is excited to join her sister in America and proud to be traveling on the grand Titanic, which was built in her Irish homeland. As a passenger in third-class accommodations, she is among the last to receive instruction and help after Titanic hits an iceberg. Among the chaos of abandoning ship, the chances of her securing a spot in a lifeboat appear grim. With the help of several men, also from Ireland, Kate finally reaches the upper decks and feels lucky to board Lifeboat 13, although no one knows if or when a rescue ship will come. She fears the icy water and wonders if they’ll all freeze to death. After seeing their magnificent ship submerge into the abyss, and hearing the cries of hundreds of fellow passengers drowning, it is almost too much to bear and Kate fleetingly thinks succumbing to her ordeal is the easiest escape. Told in alternating chapters from the perspective of Captain Rostron on the Carpathia and Kate Connolly on the Titanic, this historical novel is a compelling, heart-pounding account of two eyewitnesses to an epic disaster. Rostron’s heroic and compassionate leadership, his methodical preparations for rescue, and his grit and determination to act honorably and selflessly to save lives and care for the survivors, sets the course for this awe-inspiring story.

Title: The Home for Wayward Girls: A Novel Author: Marcia Bradley Narrator: Caitlin Kelly Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 53 minutes Release date: April 4, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Growing up in the 1990s, a young girl escapes her abusive parents–and the “ranch” they ran for “bad” girls—and becomes an advocate for teen runaways in this harrowing and heartfelt novel for fans of Joanna Goodman and Lisa Wingate. While other adolescent girls are listening to grunge rock or swooning over boy bands and movie stars, Loretta knows little of life beyond the Home for Wayward Girls, the secluded ranch where her parents run a program designed to “correct” teen girls’ “bad behavior.” Some new residents arrive with their moms and dads, while other are accompanied by transporters—people paid to forcibly deliver these “problem” teens—girls caught swearing, smoking, drinking, or kissing. Many are failed runaways desperate to leave their controlling and sometimes brutal homes. Few have any idea of the suffering that lies ahead. Loretta witnesses firsthand how the adults use abusive discipline to crush these young women’s spirits and break their wills. She understands these girls’ pain and shares it. Since childhood she’s been afraid of her father, and avoids him by spending time with the residents, secretly teaching them the survival skills they’ll need in case they manage to escape. Until the day a horrifying act of violence forces her to make her own terrible choice. Terrified and with no other option, Loretta flees the ranch and hitchhikes across the country, ending up in New York. Eventually finding safety and a sympathetic community, Loretta dedicates herself to working with lost, vulnerable, and defenseless teens, determined to prevent the same thing from happening to other girls like her.

Title: The Ascent: A House Can Have Many Secrets Author: Stefan Hertmans Narrator: Nicholas Guy Smith Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 21 minutes Release date: August 29, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In this revealing and poignant story, Stefan Hertmans uncovers haunting details about the previous owner of his house and the crime he committed as a member of the Nazi police. In 1979 Stefan Hertmans became obsessed with a rundown townhouse in Ghent. The previous owners were mentioned only in passing during the acquisition, and it wasn’t until the new millennium, long after he had sold the house, that he came across a memoir by the owner’s son Adriaan Verhulst, a distinguished history professor and a former teacher of Hertmans’, which revealed that his father was a former SS officer.       Hertmans finds he is profoundly haunted by images of the family as ghostly presences in the rooms he had once known so well, he begins a journey of discovery—not to tell the story of Adriaan’s father, but rather the story of the house and the people who lived in it and passed through it. Archives, interviews with relatives and personal documents help him imagine the world of this house as they reveal not only a marital drama, but also a connection between past visitors to the house and important figures in the culture and politics of Flanders now.       A stunning and immersive reimagining of a family in a historical moment of great upheaval confirms Hertmans’ always brilliant melding of fiction and nonfiction.

Title: White Fox: A Novel Series: #3 of The Black Sun Trilogy Author: Owen Matthews Narrator: Mark Bramhall Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 1 minute Release date: March 7, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A page-turning thriller about two competing KGB operatives on a race across Russia and against time to uncover the devastating truth behind the assassination of JFK. 1963. In a desolate Russian penal colony, the radio blares the news of President Kennedy’s death. Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vasin’s new post as director of a gulag camp in the middle of a frozen tundra is far from a promotion. This is where disgraced agents, like Vasin, are sent to disappear and die quietly. But when tensions in the camp mount and a violent revolt breaks out, Vasin finds himself on the run with a mysterious prisoner holding the most dangerous secret in the world: who ordered the murder of President Kennedy. In a breathless chase that leads them throughout the Soviet Union, from the barren Siberian wastelands, to the stunning halls of the Catherine Palace, and into the gritty streets of Leningrad and Moscow, Vasin must stay one step ahead of the deadliest spy and police organizations in the world, and keep the most wanted man in Russia alive. The journey will push Vasin’s loyalty, morality, and patriotism to the limit, until he faces the ultimate choice: fall in line, or die fighting the system. With masterly storytelling that weaves together a moment of explosive history with the cutthroat machinations of Soviet politics, Owen Matthews’s White Fox captures the paradigm-shifting assassination from a unique Soviet point of view. This is a page-turning thriller across Russia, where characters facing impossible odds are forced to decide among truth, justice, and all-out war.

Title: Ada's Room: A Novel Author: Sharon Dodua Otoo Narrator: Debbie Korley, Cyril Nri Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 35 minutes Release date: March 28, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A kaleidoscopic novel spanning generations and continents, that reveals the connections between four women in their struggle for survival. A woman in 15th century West Africa named Ada buries her child and confronts a Portuguese enslaver. A woman in Victorian England named Ada Lovelace, a mathematical genius and computer programming pioneer, tries to hide her affair with Charles Dickens from her husband. A woman named Ada, imprisoned in a concentration camp at Mittelbau-Dora in 1945, will survive one more day in enforced prostitution. Connected by an unknown but sentient spirit, and a bracelet of fertility beads that each Ada encounters at a pivotal moment in her life, these women share a name and a purpose. As their interwoven narratives converge on a modern day Ada, a young Ghanaian woman who finds herself pregnant, alone, in Berlin, searching for a home before her baby arrives, their shared spirit will find a way to help her break the vicious cycle of injustice. This novel is a feat of imagination and breaks down simplistic notions of history as a straight line; one woman’s experience matters to another’s 400 years later, on a different continent. In this deeply moving, at times mordantly funny, ultimately hopeful book, there is a connection between all those fighting for love, for family, for justice, for a home.

In a faraway kingdom, in a long-ago land...   ...a young girl lived happily in Moscow with her family: a sister, a father, and an eccentric mother who liked to tell fairy tales and collect porcelain dolls.    One summer night, everything changed, and all that remained of that family were the girl and her mother.   Now, a decade later and studying at Oxford University, Rosie has an English name, a loving fiancé, and a promising future, but all she wants is to understand—and bury—the past. After her mother dies, Rosie returns to Russia, armed with little more than her mother’s strange folklore—and a single key.   What she uncovers is a devastating family history that spans the 1917 Revolution, the siege of Leningrad, Stalin’s purges, and beyond.   At the heart of this saga stands a young noblewoman, Tonya, as pretty as a porcelain doll, whose actions—and love for an idealistic man—will set off a sweeping story that reverberates across the century....

Birmingham is in its heyday, known as the “Magic City” for its booming steel industry, and while Robert and his family find much to enjoy in the city’s busy markets and vibrant nightlife, it’s also a stronghold for the Klan. And with his beautiful, light-skinned wife and snazzy car, Robert begins to worry that he might be drawing the wrong kind of attention.    2019: Meghan McKenzie, the youngest reporter at the Detroit Free Press, has grown up hearing family lore about her great-grandfather’s murder—but no one knows the full story of what really happened back then, and his body was never found.

But as her investigation begins to uncover dark secrets that spider across both the city and time, her life may be in danger.     Inspired by true events, Time’s Undoing is both a passionate tale of one woman’s quest for the truth behind the racially motivated trauma that has haunted her family for generations and, as newfound friends and supporters in Birmingham rally around Meghan’s search, the uplifting story of a community coming together to fight for change.

Title: The Shadow of Perseus: A Novel Author: Claire Heywood Narrator: Olivia Darnley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 54 minutes Release date: February 21, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Nationally bestselling author of Daughters of Sparta Claire Heywood returns with an imaginative and female-centered reinterpretation of the myth of the great hero Perseus, told through the voices of three women who are sidelined in the traditional version—his mother, Danae; his trophy, Medusa; and his wife, Andromeda—but whose viewpoints reveal a man who is not, in fact, a hero at all. Danae: Banished from her homeland thanks to a prophecy foretelling that her unborn child will one day cause the death of her father, the king of Argos, Danae finds herself stranded, pregnant, and alone in a remote fishing village. It’s a harsh new world for a young woman who grew up as a coddled princess, and forging a new life for herself and for her young son Perseus will be the hardest thing she’s ever done. Medusa: As a member of a reclusive band of women who live deep in the woods, known as the Gorgons, Medusa has eschewed all contact with the outside world. That is, until the day she finds an injured boy named Perseus in the forest. Andromeda: When a harsh sandstorm threatens to destroy her nomadic desert tribe’s way of life, Andromeda knows that a sacrifice will be required to appease the gods and end the storm. But when a forceful young Perseus interferes, Andromeda’s life is set on an entirely new path.   As Perseus becomes increasingly obsessed with the promise of his own destiny, his heroic journey casts a shadow of violence and destruction across all three women’s lives. But even as he tries to silence them, the women may find that reclaiming their voices is their only hope for lifting themselves into a better future.

Title: Retrospective: A Novel Author: Juan Gabriel Vasquez Narrator: Sheldon Romero Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 27 minutes Release date: May 9, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: An epic yet intimate novel about a Colombian man caught up in the sweep of global historical and ideological revolutions. The Colombian film director, Sergio Cabrera, is in Barcelona for a retrospective of his work. It's a hard time for him: his father, famous actor Fausto Cabrera, has just died; his marriage is in crisis; and his home country has rejected peace agreements that might have ended more than fifty years of war. In the course of a few intense days, as his films are on exhibit, Sergio recalls the events that marked his family's unusual and dramatic lives: especially his father's, his sister Marianella's and his own.  Growing up in Colombia as the children of famous actors, Sergio and Marianella were privileged and artistic, until their parents became disillusioned with bourgeois conventions and moved the entire family to China. Mao’s Cultural Revolution was underway and the family lived in an entirely ex-pat hotel where they learned Chinese and joined the revolution, became members of the Red Guard, and trained as guerilla fighters. When they returned to Colombia to support the revolution there, they were sent into the countryside to join the guerilla force, were shot at and nearly died. Out of these lives molded by ideology and zealotry, came an artistic second life for Sergio as he escaped the movement and became his country’s most celebrated film director. From the Spanish Civil War to the exile of his family to Latin America, and from the Cultural Revolution in China to the guerrilla movements of 1960s Colombia, Sergio and his family's experience is extraordinary by any standards. Equal parts family saga and epic historical novel, Retrospective reveals the story of one man and his family -- based on real people and events -- and a devastating portrait of the forces that shaped their lives, and for half a century turned the world upside down.

Title: I Will Die in a Foreign Land Author: Kalani Pickhart Narrator: Adam Barr Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 5 minutes Release date: September 22, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. Winner of the New York Public Library Young Lions Award Best Book of the Year -New York Public Library, Cosmopolitan, Independent Book Review In 1913, a Russian ballet incited a riot in Paris at the new Théâtre de Champs-Elysées. 'Only a Russian could do that,' says Aleksandr Ivanovich. 'Only a Russian could make the whole world go mad.' A century later, in November 2013, thousands of Ukrainian citizens gathered at Independence Square (Euromaidan) in Kyiv to protest then-President Yanukovych's failure to sign a referendum with the European Union, opting instead to forge a closer alliance with President Vladimir Putin and Russia. The peaceful protests turned violent when military police shot live ammunition into the crowd, killing over a hundred civilians. I Will Die in a Foreign Land is a novel that follows four individuals over the course of a volatile Ukrainian winter, as their lives are changed forever by the Euromaidan protests. Katya is a Ukrainian-American doctor stationed at a makeshift medical clinic in St. Michael's Monastery; Misha is an engineer originally from Pripyat, near Chernobyl, who has lived in Kyiv since his wife's death; Slava is a fiery young activist whose past hardships steel her determination in the face of persecution; and Aleksandr Ivanovich, a former KGB agent, climbs atop a burned-out police bus at Independence Square and plays the piano. As Katya, Misha, Slava, and Aleksandr's lives become intertwined, they each seek out love, redemption and meaning during a tumultuous and violent period. In this dazzling debut novel, Kalani Pickhart blends narrative, folklore, journalism and Slavic history to create a moving story of beauty and love in a time of terror, I Will Die in a Foreign Land is an ambitious, intimate, and haunting portrait of human perseverance and the will to survive.

Title: The Figaro Plays: The Barber of Seville, The Marriage of Figaro and The Guilty Mother: Three BBC Radio Full-Cast Dramatisations Author: Pierre-Augustin Beaumarchais Narrator: John Mcandrew, Moir Leslie, Gary Bond, Michael Aldridge, Dorothy Tutin, Alison Steadman, Full Cast, Nickolas Grace, Norman Rodway Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 45 minutes Release date: December 29, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A trilogy of classic plays by Pierre Augustin Caron De Beaumarchais, including The Barber of Seville, The Marriage of Figaro and The Guilty Mother Forerunner to the renowned operas, The Figaro Plays by Pierre Augustin Caron De Beaumarchais are a celebration of how intelligence and wit can bring any servant level with their aristocratic masters. Considered scandalous in their time, the plays went on to be adapted by Rossini (The Barber of Seville) and Mozart (The Marriage of Figaro) to become some of the most popular and acclaimed operas of all time. These original plays show us the stories behind these popular operas. In The Barber of Seville, Count Almaviva falls in love with a young noblewoman, but every attempt to seduce her is countered by her watchful guardian. Only his resourceful servant Figaro may get him what he wants... The Marriage of Figaro sees the Count grown tired of his marriage to Rosina, and instead his thoughts turn to Suzannah, Figaro's own fiancée. Will Figaro's wiles prove sufficient to save two marriages? And in The Guilty Mother, the Countess Almaviva finds troubles of her own with an illegitimate child on the way, and a scheming Major on hand to make every slip-up into a catastrophe. Once again, all depend on Figaro... Translated by John Wells, the English actor, satirist, screenwriter, and co-founder of the magazine Private Eye, this trilogy of comic dramas are masterpieces of power, humour, and marital misadventure.

Title: Empire of Iron: A Novel of the Vestal Virgins Series: #3 of The Vesta Shadows Trilogy Author: Debra May Macleod Narrator: Esther Wane Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 34 minutes Release date: March 29, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: For the heroes of Rome, and its enemies, it is a time of reckoning. There is a saying in Rome: the Tarpeian Rock is near the Capitoline—meaning that even at the height of power, one is never far from a fall. As the Vestalis Maxima, Pomponia has guided her order through the collapse of Rome’s Republic and the rise of the Empire. Her wit and piety have elevated the Vestals to a position of unprecedented prestige—and her friendship with Caesar Augustus has personally afforded her a life of political influence and privilege. She has been adored and untouchable. Yet that illusion of safety has been shattered by a ruthless enemy who continues to menace her from the shadows, his vengeful nature escalating to terrifying new heights that threaten not just Pomponia, but all those she cares for—including the emperor himself. Worse, it seems that the gods are also turning against her when the Vestal order suffers an unparalleled crisis that Pomponia must answer for. Struggling to maintain her position, Pomponia looks to her slaves and a renegade charioteer for support as her complex relationship with her protégé, Quintina, brings painful secrets to light. Faced with threats from all directions, Pomponia must be willing to sacrifice everything—even her own morality—to protect her status, the Vestal order, and the lives of those around her. In Empire of Iron, the unflinching conclusion to the Vesta Shadows trilogy, Pomponia realizes that, like Rome itself, she must become even more ruthless than her enemies if she is to survive. The Vesta Shadows trilogy spans decades, from 45 BCE to 14 CE. It follows the life of the Vestal priestess Pomponia Occia, who is inspired by the real Vestal Occia who lived during this time, serving in the Temple of Vesta for more than fifty years. Set during the tumultuous years that saw the fall of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Roman Empire under Augustus—and beyond—it dramatizes some of the major historical events that occurred during her lifetime while simultaneously bringing ancient Rome to life with fast-paced, engrossing, and visceral storylines played out by a striking cast of characters.

Title: The Inheritance of Lion Hall Series: #1 of The Inheritance Author: Corina Bomann Narrator: Nina Yndis Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 12 minutes Release date: July 13, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: An unconventional woman defies the rules of noble turn-of-the-century Sweden in an epic novel of love, secrets, family ties, and rediscovery by the bestselling author of The Moonlit Garden. Sweden, 1913. Having petitioned the court for independence from her aristocratic family, the young and vibrant Agneta Lejongård takes control of her destiny. In Stockholm, she explores her bohemian passions in art and free love, joins the suffragette movement with her best friend, and defiantly resists the expectations of women in high society. Then comes news of a tragic accident and an urgent summons to return to the family’s manor house in the country. As for Agneta’s forward path in life, she must now follow it back home. Though the grand horse-breeding estate of Lion Hall stirs some warm memories, what lies ahead tests Agneta’s independent spirit: a disapproving mother locked in the traditions of a woman’s proper place, two men vying for Agneta’s heart, and a twist of fate that upends her life once again. Torn between a daughter’s duty and the freedom she pines for, Agneta struggles not only to rebuild her future, but also to protect the future of Lion Hall itself. Forging a new path brings challenges, rewards, and a true purpose that she never could have imagined.

Title: The New Earth: A Novel Author: Jess Row Narrator: Inés Del Castillo, Joniece Abbott-Pratt, Vaneh Assadourian, Gary Tiedemann, Sheldon Romero, Jaime Lamchick, Aylam Orian, Josh Bloomberg, Ron Butler, Robin Miles, Jim Meskimen, Jason Culp Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 20 minutes Release date: March 28, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A globe-spanning epic novel about a fractured New York family reckoning with the harms of the past and confronting humanity’s uncertain future, from award-winning author Jess Row  For fifteen years, the Wilcoxes have been a family in name only. Though never the picture of happiness, they once seemed like a typical white Jewish clan from the Upper West Side. But in the early 2000s, two events ruptured the relationships between them. First, Naomi revealed to her children that her biological father was actually Black. In the aftermath, college-age daughter Bering left home to become a radical peace activist in Palestine’s West Bank, where she was killed by an Israeli Army sniper. Now, in 2018, Winter Wilcox is getting married, and her only demand is that her mother, father, and brother emerge from their self-imposed isolations and gather once more. After decades of neglecting personal and political wounds, each remaining family member must face their fractured history and decide if they can ever reconcile. Assembling a vast chorus of voices and ideas from across the globe, Jess Row “explodes the saga from within—blows the roof off, so to speak, to let in politics, race, theory, and the narrative self-awareness that the form had seemed hell-bent on ignoring” (Jonathan Lethem). The New Earth is a commanding investigation of our deep and impossible desire to undo the injustices we have both inflicted and been forced to endure.

Title: [Spanish] - El oro mexica Author: Ted Estrada Narrator: Héctor Velasco Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 12 minutes Release date: June 30, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: ¿Dónde está el tesoro secreto de los mexicas? ¿Hasta dónde llegará el conquistador para conseguirlo? Perdido el imperio mexica, tras ser derrotados sus guerreros, destruidos sus templos y encarcelados sus sacerdotes, Hernán Cortés se convierte en el gobernador de la Nueva España por órdenes del rey Carlos I. Pero el cargo conlleva una responsabilidad ineludible: enviar de vuelta a España todo el oro que encuentre en el nuevo mundo, para financiar los ejércitos que protegerán de sus enemigos al debilitado imperio. Cortés, incapaz de hallar suficiente oro para complacer a su rey, recuerda que en el palacio de Moctezuma vio, durante las primeras visitas diplomáticas que antecedieron a las hostilidades, enormes salones repletos del preciado metal, que parece haberse esfumado en el aire.

Title: All the Queen's Spies: A Novel Series: #3 of An Agents of the Crown Novel Author: Oliver Clements Narrator: Matthew Lloyd Davies Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 32 minutes Release date: March 14, 2023 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Queen Elizabeth I’s advisor John Dee is in a race to save the Empire with the help of a mysterious manuscript offering global power in this continuation of the “lively” (The New York Times) Agents of the Crown series. Settled down in his beloved Mortlake once again, philosopher and astronomer John Dee is enjoying the quiet life when Her Majesty’s spymaster Sir Francis Walsingham darkens his door, instructing him to befriend a certain Polish count with an interest in alchemy and angelic communication. But when Dee and the count are caught breaking the law, trying to convene with angels, they are exiled, and must make their way to the court of Rudolf, Holy Roman Emperor, in far-off Prague. Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth learns of Catherine de Medici’s infamous Flying Squadron, a group of seductive ladies-in-waiting scattered throughout Europe acting as her agents, and that one of them is already at work in Prague, bending the Holy Roman Emperor to join France and Spain in a crusade to crush Protestant England. With Dee on his way to Prague, Walsingham sees an opportunity to tip the scales. To convince the famously occult-loving emperor to join his side, Dee must distract him with the esoteric Book of Loagaeth, a volume transcribed from the angels that will, once decoded, allow control of the levers of heaven and earth, and everything in between. Terrible dangers await Dee in Prague, as he faces challenges at every turn, including a reluctant female spy and a ruthless old enemy, and he is forced to call upon the many unexpected talents of his wife, as well as the playwright Christopher Marlowe.

But when Dee and the count are caught breaking the law, trying to convene with angels, they are exiled, and must make their way to the court of Rudolf, Holy Roman Emperor, in far-off Prague. Meanwhile, Queen Elizabeth learns of Catherine de Medici’s infamous Flying Squadron, a group of seductive ladies-in-waiting scattered throughout Europe acting as her agents, and that one of them is already at work in Prague, bending the Holy Roman Emperor to join France and Spain in a crusade to crush Protestant England. With Dee on his way to Prague, Walsingham sees an opportunity to tip the scales. To convince the famously occult-loving emperor to join his side, Dee must distract him with the esoteric Book of Loagaeth, a volume transcribed from the angels that will, once decoded, allow control of the levers of heaven and earth, and everything in between. Terrible dangers await Dee in Prague, as he faces challenges at every turn, including a reluctant female spy and a ruthless old enemy, and he is forced to call upon the many unexpected talents of his wife, as well as the playwright Christopher Marlowe.

There is one every generation, a seer who keeps the stories. Luz “Little Light” Lopez, a tea leaf reader and laundress, is left to fend for herself after her older brother, Diego, a snake charmer and factory worker, is run out of town by a violent white mob. As Luz navigates 1930s Denver, she begins to have visions that transport her to her Indigenous homeland in the nearby Lost Territory. Luz recollects her ancestors’ origins, how her family flourished, and how they were threatened. She bears witness to the sinister forces that have devastated her people and their homelands for generations. In the end, it is up to Luz to save her family stories from disappearing into oblivion. Written in Kali Fajardo-Anstine’s singular voice, the wildly entertaining and complex lives of the Lopez family fill the pages of this multigenerational western saga. Woman of Light is a transfixing novel about survival, family secrets, and love—filled with an unforgettable cast of characters, all of whom are just as special, memorable, and complicated as our beloved heroine, Luz.

The room shudders as the synagogue down the street is engulfed in flames. Kristallnacht has begun. When my hidden paradise crumbles like a stack of cards, I must do everything in my power to protect that which is most precious to me. My son's secret must remain hidden. Before we lose everything. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/603400 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/603400]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: Blue Roan Colt Author: Dusty Richards Narrator: Justin Price Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 19 minutes Release date: October 11, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: After four years on the bloody battlefields of Europe during World War II, Army Staff Sergeant Mark Shaw returns home to Arizona with nothing but the hope of living a quiet existence and chasing the sunset on horseback forevermore. Scarred by the war in the way only a soldier who has been on the front lines can be, his every step is haunted by the rattle of machine guns, the roar of artillery, and the screams of dying friends and comrades. The homecoming he receives upon his return, though, is nothing like what he'd hoped for—a wife who couldn't wait for him in an America that has become almost unrecognizable in his absence. Shattered by her betrayal, Mark gives up on love, life, and the possibility of ever finding the peace he longs for. Life is not quite done with Mark, however. While he throws himself into the backbreaking work of building a ranch, fate takes a hand, first in the form of Alma Cornbird, a Pima woman, then in the guise of a beautiful rodeo queen named Julie Wright. Both women are determined not to let him slip further into isolation and despair, and both leave their mark upon him. With their help, the violent afterimages of the war begin to fade, and life blooms again from the hollow shell it left behind. The only thing he lacks is the right horse on which to chase that sunset once more.

Title: As Little as Nothing Author: Pamela Mulloy Narrator: Lillian Rachel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 7 minutes Release date: October 11, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 'In the tumultuous year before war breaks out, a plane crashes on a country lane, and four people are brought together in the aftermath. Miriam is recovering from another miscarriage and learns to fly as an escape from the disappointments in her life. Audrey is a middle-aged upper-class activist who has shunned her society, travels the UK lecturing on reproductive rights, and lives in a Gypsy caravan—and whose daily ritual includes a swim in a nearby river. It is Audrey’s nephew, Frank, who teaches Miriam to fly. A club foot and his suppressed homosexuality have made him reluctant to engage with anyone other than his aunt. But as he succumbs to his attraction to the crashed pilot and convinces Miriam to co-pilot an air race from London to Manchester, and as Audrey confronts her past, ghosts must be laid to rest. With the war looming, As Little as Nothing beautifully explores resilience, the strength of new bonds, and the various ways we reinvent ourselves.'

Title: The Boy in the Attic Author: Imogen Matthews Narrator: Helen Lloyd Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 40 minutes Release date: October 18, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 'Nazi-occupied Holland, 1944. As soldiers patrol the streets, nursing student Ilse is only just surviving the terrible famine and increasingly violent German occupation. Though exhausted by her demanding work at a hospital far from home, she can’t help but notice Levi, a young man with dark eyes watching the world silently from the abandoned house next door. Then, early one morning, she finds him terrified and trembling on the back doorstep. Levi’s Jewish family has been arrested and sent to a concentration camp, their likely fate all too clear. And now he needs her help. So Ilse makes the most dangerous decision of her life and takes Levi in. Hiding him away in her tiny attic room, he must remain concealed or risk almost certain death. But as the war worsens, keeping Levi a secret becomes even more difficult, even as their mutual affection grows. And when a local German soldier becomes obsessed with Ilse, they fear their time—and luck—has run out... London, present day. When Anna’s father dies, he leaves her a ticket to Amsterdam, a bent silver sixpence on a delicate silver chain, and a note begging her to complete the journey he was never able to. Based on the author’s incredible family history, this novel is a devastating, but ultimately uplifting, story about a girl who risked everything, including her life, to save the man she loved.'

Title: Dust Child Author: Que Mai Phan Nguyen Narrator: Quyen Ngo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 28 minutes Release date: March 14, 2023 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.67 of Total 3 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From the internationally bestselling author of The Mountains Sing, a suspenseful and moving saga about family secrets, hidden trauma, and the overriding power of forgiveness, set during the war and in present-day Việt Nam.    In 1969, sisters Trang and Quỳnh, desperate to help their parents pay off debts, leave their rural village and become “bar girls” in Sài Gòn, drinking, flirting (and more) with American GIs in return for money. As the war moves closer to the city, the once-innocent Trang gets swept up in an irresistible romance with a young and charming American helicopter pilot. Decades later, an American veteran, Dan, returns to Việt Nam with his wife, Linda, hoping to find a way to heal from his PTSD and, unbeknownst to her, reckon with secrets from his past.  At the same time, Phong—the son of a Black American soldier and a Vietnamese woman—embarks on a search to find both his parents and a way out of Việt Nam. Abandoned in front of an orphanage, Phong grew up being called “the dust of life,” “Black American imperialist,” and “child of the enemy,” and he dreams of a better life for himself and his family in the U.S.  Past and present converge as these characters come together to confront decisions made during a time of war—decisions that force them to look deep within and find common ground across race, generation, culture, and language. Suspenseful, poetic, and perfect for readers of Min Jin Lee’s Pachinko or Yaa Gyasi’s Homegoing, Dust Child tells an unforgettable and immersive story of how those who inherited tragedy can redefine their destinies through love, hard-earned wisdom, compassion, courage, and joy.

And so do nightmares. When Naomi's daughter, Perle, starts to have nightmares about smokestacks and creepy doctors, Naomi is struck with terror—the terror of a mother who fears her daughter is in mortal danger. Naomi believes dreams are glimpses into the future. She, too, has had dreams of foreign soldiers with a strange flag invading her tiny village. She knows in her heart that evil is brewing. Real-life has already been a living hell for Naomi. She must navigate the treacherous path of her unhappy arranged marriage with Hershel while keeping a scandalous love affair secret.

Title: Big Red: A Novel Starring Rita Hayworth and Orson Welles Author: Jerome Charyn Narrator: Natalie Duke Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 3 minutes Release date: August 23, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Since he first appeared on the American literary scene, Jerome Charyn has dazzled readers with his 'blunt, brilliantly crafted prose' (Washington Post). Yet Charyn, a beloved comedic novelist, also possesses an extraordinary knowledge of Golden Age Hollywood, having taught film history both in the United States and France. With Big Red, Charyn reimagines the life of one of America's most enduring icons, 'Gilda' herself, Rita Hayworth, whose fiery red tresses and hypnotic dancing graced the silver screen over sixty times in her nearly forty-year career. The quintessential movie star of the 1940s, Hayworth has long been objectified as a sex symbol, pin-up girl, and so-called Love Goddess. Here Charyn, channeling the ghosts of a buried past, finally lifts the veils that have long enshrouded Hayworth, evoking her emotional complexity—her passions, her pain, and her inner turmoil. Reanimating such classic films as Gilda and The Lady from Shanghai, Big Red is a bittersweet paean to Hollywood's Golden Age, a tender yet honest portrait of a time before blockbusters and film franchises—one that promises to consume both Hollywood cinephiles and neophytes alike. Lauded for his 'polymorphous imagination' (Jonathan Lethem), Charyn once again has created one of the most inventive novels in recent American literature.

In the golden age of Hollywood, two of the brightest stars would define—and defy—an era… She was the small-town southern beauty transformed into a Hollywood love goddess.

Ava’s star is rising just as Frank’s career—and public image as a family man—is taking a hit. Gone are the days of the screaming bobbysoxers and chart-topping hits. Ava, however, finds herself gracing the front page of every tabloid in America. Jealousy and cheating abound, and when the two succumb to their temperaments and their vices, their happiness is threatened at every turn. As the pair ride the rollercoaster of success and failure, passion and anger, they both wonder if the next turn will be the end of their careers, and most devastating of all—the end of all they’ve shared.
