Title: [German] - Die Krieger: Ein Fall für Nick Marzek Series: #1 of Nick Marzek ermittelt Author: Martin Maurer Narrator: Wenzel Banneyer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 49 minutes Release date: February 14, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Das Jahr 1984 hat gerade begonnen, die Proteste gegen die Stationierung der Pershing-II-Raketen hören nicht auf, im Radio läuft Joy Division. Nick Marzek, 43, gebürtiger Berliner, ist seit Kurzem Kriminalkommissar bei der Münchner Polizei. Nach dem Tod seiner Frau versucht er sich im Reich von Franz Josef Strauß und dessen CSU ein neues Leben aufzubauen. Mit bescheidenem Erfolg. Da ereignet sich ein verheerender Brandanschlag auf die Diskothek Liverpool im Bahnhofsviertel. Es gibt zahlreiche Verletzte, und der Druck auf die ermittelnden Beamten ist groß. Alles deutet auf Revierkämpfe im Rotlichtmilieu hin. Doch der Fall nimmt eine unerwartete Wendung: Von der italienischen Polizei wird den Ermittlern ein Bekennerschreiben zugeschickt, und Nick bleibt nichts anderes übrig, als dem Hinweis nachzugehen. Er muss nach Italien. Hilfe bekommt er dabei von Graziella Altieri, die bei der Mordkommission eigentlich als Reinigungskraft arbeitet, nun aber als Übersetzerin einspringt. Nick und Graziella beginnen in Mailand mit ihren Nachforschungen – und müssen erkennen, dass der Fall eine politische Dimension hat.

Title: Black Shield Maiden Author: Willow Smith, Jess Hendel Narrator: Willow Smith Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 23 minutes Release date: May 7, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From Willow Smith and Jess Hendel comes a powerful and groundbreaking historical saga about an African warrior in the world of the Vikings. “Intimate, tender, and fiercely epic.”—Tomi Adeyemi, author of Children of Blood and Bone Lore, legend, and history tell us of the Vikings: warrior kings on epic journeys of conquest and plunder. But the stories we know are not the only stories to tell. There is another story, one that has been lost to the mists of time: the saga of the dark queen. This saga begins with Yafeu, a defiant yet fiercely compassionate young warrior who is stolen from her home in the flourishing Ghānaian empire and taken to a distant kingdom in the North. There she is thrust into a strange, cold world of savage shield maidens, tyrannical rulers, and mysterious gods. And there she also finds something unexpected: a kindred spirit. She comes to serve Freydis, a shy princess who couldn’t be more different from the confident and self-possessed Yafeu. But they both want the same thing: to forge their own fate. Yafeu inspires Freydis to dream of a future greater than the one that the king and queen have forced upon her. And with the princess at her side, Yafeu learns to navigate this new world and grows increasingly determined to become one of the legendary shield maidens—to fight not only for her freedom but for the freedom of others. Yafeu may have lost her home, but she still knows who she is, and she’s not afraid to be the flame that burns a city to the ground so a new world can rise from the ashes. She will alter the course of history—and become the revolutionary heroine of her own myth.

Title: The Forgotten Cottage Author: Courtney Ellis Narrator: Helen Laser, Lorna Bennett Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 20 minutes Release date: August 9, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 4 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Connected through time to her great-grandmother by a shared English countryside home, an American nurse tries to piece together her family's tangled history in this new historical novel from the acclaimed author of At Summer’s End. England, 2014: Audrey Collins knows only two things about her beloved grandmother's past: She was born into nobility and she immigrated to America at seventeen years old. So when Audrey inherits her gran's home in North Yorkshire, she arrives expecting a sprawling country estate fit for lords and ladies. Instead, she finds an abandoned stone cottage perfectly preserved as Gran left it when she fled in 1941—ration book and all—and begins to uncover what secrets her family has been keeping.    France, 1915: Lady Emilie Dawes is working as a nurse on the Western Front, grateful to have escaped the restraints of her restrictive, privileged home life. But the independence she fought hard to earn is suddenly jeopardized when a familiar man shows up in one of her hospital beds. Facing him means facing her past, and the decisions she had made in fear. As the war rages around her, Emilie realizes she cannot continue running from who she is until she decides who she truly wants to be.   Over a hundred years apart, Audrey and Emilie each struggle to find purpose, love, and a place to call home in this enchanting family saga celebrating the courage of underestimated women—and the power a secret can hold across generations.

As the war rages around her, Emilie realizes she cannot continue running from who she is until she decides who she truly wants to be.   Over a hundred years apart, Audrey and Emilie each struggle to find purpose, love, and a place to call home in this enchanting family saga celebrating the courage of underestimated women—and the power a secret can hold across generations.

Una inyección de electricidad, una música que se sigue escuchando mucho más allá de sus páginas.» Mauro Libertella Paloma está muerta. Ha sido asesinada. Pero antes de ser Paloma, su nombre fue Gaspar. Antes de ser Paloma, Gaspar hacía ceremonias para curar a la gente, pero desde que se convirtió en Paloma, se dedicó a la vida nocturna con los hombres. Prefirió el amor a la purificación. Fue ella quien enseñó a Feliciana todo lo que sabe sobre la curandería. Con este aprendizaje, Feliciana descubre que, además de curar el cuerpo, también puede curar el alma. Pronto sus poderes serán conocidos en todas partes y personas de todo el mundo la visitarán para sanarse. Ella se convertirá en la curandera de El Lenguaje. Por otro lado, la periodista Zoé decide visitar a Feliciana al pueblo de San Felipe para descubrir no sólo la verdad sobre el asesinato, sino también la vida de la curandera. Y en ese mismo tenor, construirá su propio relato. Brujas es una historia de tradiciones, sanaciones, violencia y, sobre todo, de la importancia del lenguaje; una novela maravillosamente escrita.

Title: Nuremberg: The Trial of the Nazi War Criminals: A BBC Radio 4 full-cast drama Author: Jonathan Myerson Narrator: Natalie Dormer, Freddie Fox, Henry Goodman, Alex Kingston, Full Cast Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 37 minutes Release date: May 5, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A 16-part dramatised reconstruction of a landmark moment in history - the groundbreaking trial of the 22 most notorious Nazi war criminals Summer, 1945. The war is over, and Germany has surrendered. Across Europe, the top surviving Nazis are being tracked down, arrested, and imprisoned in a once-opulent Luxembourg hotel, on 24-hour suicide watch. Now, the Allies must decide what to do with them. After much deliberation, Britain, America, Russia and France agree that Hitler's high command must be formally tried. This will be an entirely new kind of trial, with utterly new charges: those of 'Crimes against Humanity' and 'Genocide'. And before it can even take place, numerous crises and obstacles must be overcome... As court proceedings finally get underway, the enormity of the Nazis' crimes is revealed via a mountain of documentary evidence: and chilling footage of the concentration camps. Over the next 218 days, the accused - among them Hitler's architect and close ally, Albert Speer, and deputy Hermann Goering - are cross-examined, and forced to admit to the shabby gangsterism of the Nazi war machine. With the judges' verdict imminent, who will be executed, and who acquitted? Featuring a stellar cast, including Henry Goodman, Freddie Fox, Alex Kingston and Natalie Dormer, Jonathan Myerson's epic series brings the process alive from the ground up. We see the trial - and the events leading up to it - through the eyes of some of the myriad individuals involved: the US Army officer guarding the cells; the Russian interpreter translating the indictments; the psychologist who runs tests on the defendants, hoping to find the mystery of human evil; and the young German girl working in the court cafeteria, who must come to terms with her country's collective guilt. Drawing on eyewitness testimony, contemporary reports, over 20 volumes of court transcripts and more than 2000 hours of audio and newsreel, this comprehensive drama gives us a fresh understanding of the immense achievement of those who fought for justice in 'the last battle of World War II' - and reveals how that phenomenal historical moment shaped our world today. Also included is a bonus interview in which Jonathan Myerson discusses the writing of Nuremberg with Kristan McMahon of the Robert H. Jackson Center.

He is part of a high-achieving, land-owning Black family. Neither Two nor Hank fit easily into the highly segregated society of 1920s Nashville. When disaster strikes during one of Two’s shows, strange things start to happen at the park. Vestiges of the ancient past begin to surface, apparitions appear, and then the hippo falls mysteriously ill. At the same time, Two dodges her unsettling, lurking admirer and bonds with Clive, Glendale’s zookeeper and a World War I veteran, who is haunted—literally—by horrific memories of war. To get to the bottom of it, an eclectic cast of park performers, employees, and even the wealthy stakeholders must come together, making When Two Feathers Fell from the Sky an unforgettable and irresistible tale of exotic animals, lingering spirits, and unexpected friendship.

World War II London: When Victoire “Paddy” Bennett first walks into the Admiralty’s Room 39, home to the Intelligence Division, all the bright and lively young woman expects is a secretarial position to the charismatic Commander Ian Fleming. But soon her job is so much more, and when Fleming proposes a daring plot to deceive the Germans about Allied invasion plans he requests the newlywed Paddy's help. She jumps at the chance to work as an agent in the field, even after the operation begins to affect her marriage. But could doing her duty for King and country come at too great a cost? Socialite Friedl Stöttinger is a beautiful Austrian double agent determined to survive in wartime England, which means working for MI-5, investigating fifth column activity among the British elite at parties and nightclubs. But Friedl has a secret—some years before, she agreed to work for German Intelligence and spy on the British. When her handler at MI-5 proposes that she work with Serbian agent, Duško Popov, Friedl falls hopelessly in love with the dashing spy. And when her intelligence work becomes fraught with danger, she must choose whether to remain loyal to the British and risk torture and execution by the Nazis, or betray thousands of men to their deaths. Soon, the lives of these two extraordinarily brave women will collide, as each travels down a road of deception and danger leading to one of the greatest battles of World War II.

Title: Marmee: A Novel Author: Sarah Miller Narrator: Kirsten Potter Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 18 minutes Release date: October 25, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From the author of Caroline, a revealing retelling of Louisa May Alcott’s beloved Little Women, from the perspective of Margaret “Marmee” March, about the larger real-world challenges behind the cozy domestic concerns cherished by generations of readers. In 1861, war is raging in the South, but in Concord, Massachusetts, Margaret March has her own battles to fight. With her husband serving as an army chaplain, the comfort and security of Margaret’s four daughters— Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy—now rest on her shoulders alone. Money is tight and every month, her husband sends less and less of his salary with no explanation. Worst of all, Margaret harbors the secret that these financial hardships are largely her fault, thanks to a disastrous mistake made over a decade ago which wiped out her family’s fortune and snatched away her daughters’ chances for the education they deserve.  Yet even with all that weighs upon her, Margaret longs to do more—for the war effort, for the poor, for the cause of abolition, and most of all, for her daughters. Living by her watchwords, “Hope and keep busy,” she fills her days with humdrum charity work to keep her worries at bay. All of that is interrupted when Margaret receives a telegram from the War Department, summoning her to her husband’s bedside in Washington, D.C. While she is away, her daughter Beth falls dangerously ill, forcing Margaret to confront the possibility that the price of her own generosity toward others may be her daughter’s life. A stunning portrait of the paragon of virtue known as Marmee, a wife left behind, a mother pushed to the brink, a woman with secrets. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Title: [Russian] - Год чудес Author: джералдин брукс Narrator: анастасия шумилкина Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 50 minutes Release date: December 28, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «Год чудес» Джералдин Брукс – яркая, потрясающе актуальная и неожиданно утешительная история о катастрофической эпидемии чумы. 1665 – страшный год, год Великой лондонской чумы. Чудовищная эпидемия неуклонно, но до поры до времени тихо расползается по стране, и вместе с зараженным тюком ткани попадает в маленькую деревушку. Священник говорит, что болезнь – это испытание, посланное Богом, и местные жители решают изолироваться в своей деревне, чтобы не нести заразу дальше. Ужас нарастает постепенно, и вот уже людям остается только молиться. Чума не берет молодую вдову, служанку Анну, которая вместе с женой священника начинает ухаживать за умирающими. Но порой неизвестно, что смертельней: сама эпидемия или суеверия и всепоглощающий страх, который охватывает жителей. В деревушке начинается жестокая охота на ведьм… Но самоотверженность, стойкость и милосердие способны превратить самый жуткий год – в год чудес. Пресса о книге: «Блестящий роман.

Title: Much Ado About Dukes Series: #2 of Never a Wallflower Author: Eva Devon Narrator: Sasha Higgins Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 36 minutes Release date: August 23, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: As far as William Easton—the Duke of Blackheath—is concerned, love can go to the devil. Why would a man need passion when he has wealth, a stately home, and work to occupy his mind? But no one warned the duke that a fiery and frustratingly strong-willed activist like Lady Beatrice Haven can also be a stunning dark-haired siren who tempts a man’s mind, body, and soul. Lady Beatrice is determined to never marry—ever. She would much rather fight for the rights of women and provoke the darkly handsome Duke of Blackheath, even if he does claim to be forward-thinking. After all, dukes—even gorgeous ones—are the enemy. So why does she feel such enjoyment from their heated exchanges? But everything changes when Beatrice finds herself suddenly without fortune, a husband, or even a home. Now her future depends on the very man who sets her blood boiling. Because in order to protect his esteemed rival, the Duke of Blackheath has asked for Beatrice’s hand, inviting his once-enemy into his home... and his bed.

Title: The Best of Thomas Hardy Author: Thomas Hardy Narrator: Joe Jameson, Jilly Bond Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 30 hours 39 minutes Release date: February 1, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: This collection includes two of the most notable titles from author Thomas Hardy, Tess of the d'Urbervilles and Far from the Madding Crowd. Tess Durbeyfield, the daughter of an impoverished family, must navigate a world of desire and romance once she meets Alec d'Urberville. The son of a rich widow, he takes a fancy to her and gets her a position as the poultry keeper on his family's estate. However, her good fortune is soon complicated by Alec's libertine ways, and Tess returns home shamed. Once recovered, she separates herself from the gossip by finding work at a dairy farm outside the village. There, she meets and falls for Angel Clare, the eligible youngest son of the local reverend. But as her life begins to change for the better, she is troubled by a moral dilemma: whether or not to tell Angel about her past. Gabriel Oak is a shepherd struggling to get ahead when Bathsheba Everdene moves next door. Although he loves her, she sees him as a friend and rejects him for two other suitors. After she leaves town, she and Gabriel are reunited years later, once everything has changed. In this classic novel, Thomas Hardy depicts the English countryside as idyllic but also hard and unforgiving, much like the Victorian mindsets of the day.

Title: [Russian] - Осада, или Шахматы со смертью Author: артуро перес-реверте Narrator: владимир голицын Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 25 hours 6 minutes Release date: December 23, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 1811-1812 год. Кадис, последний оплот испанцев, сражающихся за свою независимость, осажден французами. Войска Жозефа Бонапарта планомерно обстреливают город, и, странное дело, именно в тех местах, куда попадают снаряды, происходит серия жестоких убийств молодых девушек. Рохелио Тисон, комиссар местной полиции, не отличающийся мягкостью нрава, вместе с Ипполитом Баррулем, партнером комиссара по шахматам, разыскивают таинственного убийцу… Роман Переса-Реверте — острая, на грани жизни и смерти, напряженная, местами безумная многоходовая шахматная партия, фигуры в которой непредсказуемы, а результат игры может изменить не только судьбу героев, но и ход мировой истории. Сам писатель, автор таких международных бестселлеров, как «Фламандская доска», «Клуб Дюма» (литературная основа «Девятых врат» Романа Полански с Джонни Деппом), цикла романов о приключениях капитана Алатристе (экранизация с Виго Мортенсеном) и многих других, так рассказывает о книге: «Технически это мой самый сложный роман, с самой разветвленной структурой… Я спустя двадцать лет словно опять вернулся к моим старым романам. Здесь есть и политическая интрига со шпионажем, и расследование, и любовная линия, и морские сражения, и приключения». артуро перес-реверте Thu, 23 Dec 2021 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/565530 thebookvoice.com 25:6:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/565530]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Heartstone Series: #1 of Heartstone Series Author: Elle Katharine White Narrator: Billie Fulford-Brown Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 49 minutes Release date: September 20, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A debut historical fantasy that recasts Jane Austen’s beloved Pride & Prejudice in an imaginative world of wyverns, dragons, and the warriors who fight alongside them against the monsters that threaten the kingdom: gryphons, direwolves, lamias, banshees, and lindworms. They say a Rider in possession of a good blade must be in want of a monster to slay—and Merybourne Manor has plenty of monsters. Passionate, headstrong Aliza Bentaine knows this all too well; she’s already lost one sister to the invading gryphons. So when Lord Merybourne hires a band of Riders to hunt down the horde, Aliza is relieved her home will soon be safe again. Her relief is short-lived. With the arrival of the haughty and handsome dragonrider, Alastair Daired, Aliza expects a battle; what she doesn’t expect is a romantic clash of wills, pitting words and wit against the pride of an ancient house. Nor does she anticipate the mystery that follows them from Merybourne Manor, its roots running deep as the foundations of the kingdom itself, where something old and dreadful slumbers . . . something far more sinister than gryphons. It’s a war Aliza is ill-prepared to wage, on a battlefield she’s never known before: one spanning kingdoms, class lines, and the curious nature of her own heart. Elle Katharine White infuses elements of Austen’s beloved novel with her own brand of magic, crafting a modern epic fantasy that conjures a familiar yet wondrously unique new world.

Hitler has triumphed, Britain is under German occupation and America cowers under the threat of nuclear attack. In the dead of night, a figure flits through the ruins of Dryburgh Abbey, searching for a hidden document he knows could change the course of history.

A daring escape leads him and his fiancée Katie on a breathless chase to the university town of St. Andrews, where the Germans have established a secret research laboratory.

Like 'Game of Thrones' with real history. Book 1 of the multi-award-winning epic medieval Historical Fiction series 'The Troubadours'. Estela wants to be Queen Aliénor’s troubadour and ex-crusader Dragonetz los Pros is commanded to teach her.

On the run from abuse, Estela wakes in a ditch with only her lute, her amazing voice, and a dagger hidden in her underskirt. Her talent finds a patron in Aliénor of Aquitaine and more than a music tutor in the Queen's finest troubadour and Commander of the Guard, Dragonetz los Pros. Their enemies gather, ready to light the political and religious powder-keg of medieval Narbonne. Set in the period following the Second Crusade, Jean Gill's spellbinding romantic thrillers evoke medieval France with breathtaking accuracy.

Bjarki Bloodhand is now Fire Born – a legendary berserker inhabited by the ferocious spirit of a bear in battle.

Title: An Affair of Spies: A Novel Author: Ronald H. Balson Narrator: Fred Berman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 54 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From the winner of the National Jewish Book Award—Ronald H. Balson's An Affair of Spies tells of a spy mission to rescue a defector from Germany and prevent the Nazis from creating an atomic bomb. Nathan Silverman grew up in Berlin in the 1920s, the son of a homemaker and a theoretical physicist. His idyllic childhood was soon marred by increasing levels of bigotry against his family and the rest of the Jewish community, and after his uncle is arrested on Kristallnacht, he leaves Germany for New York City with only his mother’s wedding ring to sell for survival. While attending an evening course at Columbia in 1941, Nathan notices a recruitment poster on a university wall and decides to enlist in the military and help fight the Nazi regime. To his surprise, he is quickly selected for a special assignment; he is trained as a spy, and ordered to report to the Manhattan Project. There he learns that the Allies are racing to develop a nuclear weapon before the Nazis, and a German theoretical physicist is hoping to defect. The physicist was a friend of his father's, and Nathan's mission is to return to Berlin via France and smuggle him out of Europe. Nathan will be accompanied by Dr. Allison Fisher, a brilliant young scientist who can speak French; he travels to her lab at the University of Chicago for a crash course in nuclear physics, then they embark on their adventure. Nathan and Allison soon develop feelings for one another, but as their relationship deepens they move ever closer to their dangerous goal. Will they be able to escape Europe with the defector and start a new life together, or will they fail their mission and become two more casualties of war? An Affair of Spies is an action-packed tale of heroism and love in the face of unspeakable evil. Author Ronald H. Balson has applied his unmatched talent for evocative and painstakingly authentic storytelling to the high-stakes world of espionage and created his most thrilling novel yet.

Title: The Matchmaker's Gift: A Novel Author: Lynda Cohen Loigman Narrator: Eva Kaminsky, Gabra Zackman Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 25 minutes Release date: September 20, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.4 of Total 5 Ratings of Narrator: 4.67 of Total 3 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Lynda Cohen Loigman's The Matchmaker's Gift is a heartwarming story of two extraordinary women from two different eras who defy expectations to realize their unique talent of seeing soulmates in the most unexpected places. Is finding true love a calling or a curse? Even as a child in 1910, Sara Glikman knows her gift: she is a maker of matches and a seeker of soulmates. But among the pushcart-crowded streets of New York’s Lower East Side, Sara’s vocation is dominated by devout older men—men who see a talented female matchmaker as a dangerous threat to their traditions and livelihood. After making matches in secret for more than a decade, Sara must fight to take her rightful place among her peers, and to demand the recognition she deserves. Two generations later, Sara’s granddaughter, Abby, is a successful Manhattan divorce attorney, representing the city’s wealthiest clients. When her beloved Grandma Sara dies, Abby inherits her collection of handwritten journals recording the details of Sara’s matches. But among the faded volumes, Abby finds more questions than answers. Why did Abby’s grandmother leave this library to her and what did she hope Abby would discover within its pages? Why does the work Abby once found so compelling suddenly feel inconsequential and flawed? Is Abby willing to sacrifice the career she’s worked so hard for in order to keep her grandmother’s mysterious promise to a stranger? And is there really such a thing as love at first sight?

Title: [Spanish] - Los colores del incendio (Los hijos del desastre 2) Series: #2 of Los hijos del desastre Author: Pierre Lemaitre Narrator: Diego Rousselon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 13 hours 47 minutes Release date: January 27, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Con la fuerza arrolladora de un torbellino, Los colores del incendio trenza magistralmente la venganza implacable de una mujer a la par que ofrece un retrato soberbio de una época embarullada y vertiginosa. Ambientada entre 1927 y 1933, esta continuación de las peripecias de la familia Péricourt se inicia con el funeral del patriarca Marcel, una ceremonia multitudinaria a la que asiste todo aquel que es, o aspira a ser, alguien en París. Sin embargo, las cosas no pintan demasiado bien para Madeleine, la heredera del ingente patrimonio familiar. Al suicidio de su hermano Édouard, el héroe desfigurado, el encarcelamiento de su ex marido estafador y la muerte de su padre, se añade la delicada situación de su hijo Paul, un niño de siete años que acaba de sufrir un horrible percance. Así, en este momento tan vulnerable de su vida, Madeleine debe ponerse al mando de una entidad financiera con la más que dudosa ayuda de un apoderado resentido, un tío codicioso y gris con aviesas intenciones y un joven amante con ínfulas de periodista. Y todo ello en un ambiente de secretos, traiciones, chantajes y artimañas en el que buscadores de fortuna y politicastros sin escrúpulos medran sin control, ajenos a la inminente quiebra bursátil e inconscientes de la hecatombe bélica que se cierne sobre Europa. La crítica ha dicho... «Un melodrama al estilo de El conde de Montecristo con sofisticada venganza incluida.» El Periódico «Un nuevo capítulo a ese bullicioso fresco de inspiración folletinesca e incisivo espíritu decimonónico con el que, además de celebrar el poso de las narrativas populares, sigue apretándole las tuercas a la familia Péricourt y a la Francia del siglo pasado.» ABC «Es una apuesta segura, viniendo de la mano de Pierre Lemaitre. [...] Con la fuerza arrolladora de un torbellino, trenza magistralmente la venganza implacable de una mujer, a la par que ofrece un retrato soberbio de una época embarullada y vertiginosa.» MÍA «Cómico, astuto, provocativo y mordaz.» Lire «Pierre Lemaitre tiene un verdadero don para el ritmo, algo inmediatamente visual, una energía en el desarrollo de la trama, densa y profunda bajo el ropaje anodino del entretenimiento, alternando la visión panorámica y el primer plano.» Pierre Assouline, La République des Livres «El arte de Pierre Lemaitre consigue mantener el ritmo, hace que disfrutemos de la felicidad de la escritura, de los vuelcos inesperados, de su manera de inventar, sin complejos, una trama chispeante. [...] ¡Rápido, la continuación!» L'Express «El heredero más directo de los novelistas decimonónicos.» Le Nouveau Magazine Littéraire «Una comedia humana perfectamente orquestada.» Le Journal du Dimanche «Mordaz, trepidante, vodevilesco.» Le Point «Una intriga que te devora.» Le Figaro Magazine «Palpitante. Magistral.» Version Fémina «Un talento rabioso.» L'Obs «Sublime.» RTL Pierre Lemaitre Thu, 27 Jan 2022 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564586 thebookvoice.com 13:47:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564586]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Opus nigrum Author: Marguerite Yourcenar Narrator: Marta Rodríguez Pandozi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 19 minutes Release date: January 27, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Ambientada en la Europa del siglo XVI, Opus nigrum narra el trágico destino de un hombre excepcional y nos hace revivir la fascinante época que va de la Edad Media al Renacimiento «Con el estilo poético característico de Yourcenar, en estas páginas [...] los grises están presentes constantemente. Opus nigrum es, en fin, un compendio de la condición humana con todas sus contradicciones». Joseba Louzao, El Debate Opus nigrum, una vieja fórmula alquímica para la obtención de la Gran Obra y que también simboliza las pruebas del espíritu en su proceso de liberación, es el título elegido por Marguerite Yourcenar para trazar la vida de Zenón, personaje inspirado en el químico alemán Paracelso, el médico español Miguel Servet, el filósofo italiano Tommaso Campanella y Leonardo da Vinci. Reseñas: «Posiblemente la mejor novela de Marguerite Yourcenar.» Luis Goytisolo «En sus novelas históricas supo Yourcenar, con la enorme calidad de su escritura y la hondura de sus ideas, dignificar y trascender todo un género.» Care Santos, El Cultural de El Mundo «Esta obra es al tiempo un ensayo sobre el Renacimiento y un cuadro sobre esa turbulenta época [...]. Una experiencia conmovedora, infrecuente y en ocasiones inquietante para el lector contemporáneo.» The New York Times Book Review «Recordad que la lucidez es contagiosa, y también lo es el coraje. Se leéis, querréis releer; uno jamás se cansa de Yourcenar.» Dominique Aury «Si hubierta que carcacterizar con una sola palabra el conjunto de su obra, no lo dudaría un momento: Yourcenar o el saber, naturalmente. Yourcenar o la seredidad, sin duda. Pero sobre todo, Yourcenar o la altura. Yourcenar o la elevación.» Jean D'Ormesson «Yourcenar no llegó a la historia desde fuera, sino que nació en su interior, en ella y desde ella aportó al género su tradición clásica, su sentido de la trascendencia de la naturaleza (ecologismo radical hasta su panteísmo final, el orientalismo y el budismo), sus experiencias personales (familiares y amorosas hasta su homosexualidad) y su sentimiento pudoroso, elegante, discreto y congelado de las pasiones humanas.» Rafael Conte «Una de las más grandes escritoras del XX, consagrada desde muy joven a la tarea de habitar en ajenas conciencias y de escribir contra el olvido.» Javier Aparicio Maydeu, El País Marguerite Yourcenar Thu, 27 Jan 2022 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564572 thebookvoice.com 12:19:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564572]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Yourcenar o la seredidad, sin duda. Pero sobre todo, Yourcenar o la altura. Yourcenar o la elevación.» Jean D'Ormesson «Yourcenar no llegó a la historia desde fuera, sino que nació en su interior, en ella y desde ella aportó al género su tradición clásica, su sentido de la trascendencia de la naturaleza (ecologismo radical hasta su panteísmo final, el orientalismo y el budismo), sus experiencias personales (familiares y amorosas hasta su homosexualidad) y su sentimiento pudoroso, elegante, discreto y congelado de las pasiones humanas.» Rafael Conte «Una de las más grandes escritoras del XX, consagrada desde muy joven a la tarea de habitar en ajenas conciencias y de escribir contra el olvido.» Javier Aparicio Maydeu, El País Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564572]]> to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - Opus nigrum Author: Marguerite Yourcenar Narrator: Marta Rodríguez Pandozi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 19 minutes Release date: January 27, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Ambientada en la Europa del siglo XVI, Opus nigrum narra el trágico destino de un hombre excepcional y nos hace revivir la fascinante época que va de la Edad Media al Renacimiento «Con el estilo poético característico de Yourcenar, en estas páginas [...] los grises están presentes constantemente. Opus nigrum es, en fin, un compendio de la condición humana con todas sus contradicciones». Joseba Louzao, El Debate Opus nigrum, una vieja fórmula alquímica para la obtención de la Gran Obra y que también simboliza las pruebas del espíritu en su proceso de liberación, es el título elegido por Marguerite Yourcenar para trazar la vida de Zenón, personaje inspirado en el químico alemán Paracelso, el médico español Miguel Servet, el filósofo italiano Tommaso Campanella y Leonardo da Vinci. Reseñas: «Posiblemente la mejor novela de Marguerite Yourcenar.» Luis Goytisolo «En sus novelas históricas supo Yourcenar, con la enorme calidad de su escritura y la hondura de sus ideas, dignificar y trascender todo un género.» Care Santos, El Cultural de El Mundo «Esta obra es al tiempo un ensayo sobre el Renacimiento y un cuadro sobre esa turbulenta época [...]. Una experiencia conmovedora, infrecuente y en ocasiones inquietante para el lector contemporáneo.» The New York Times Book Review «Recordad que la lucidez es contagiosa, y también lo es el coraje.

Title: The Sheltering Sky: A Novel Author: Paul Bowles Narrator: Saskia Maarleveld Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 9 minutes Release date: May 14, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Audio edition of the landmark of 20th Century literature, by acclaimed author Paul Bowles “The Sheltering Sky is one of the most original, even visionary, works of fiction to appear in the twentieth century.” —Tobias Wolff ''It stands head and shoulders above most other novels published in English since World War II.” —New Republic In this classic work of psychological terror, Paul Bowles examines the ways in which Americans apprehend other cultures--and the ways in which their incomprehension destroys them. The story of three American travelers adrift in the cities and deserts of North Africa after World War II, The Sheltering Sky is at once merciless and heartbreaking in its compassion. It etches the limits of human reason and intelligence--perhaps even the limits of human life --when they touch the unfathomable emptiness and impassive cruelty of the dessert.

Written in pristine prose, it reminded me of the possibilities of language' Elizabeth Macneal, author of The Doll Factory A young woman, Violet, lies in a hospital bed in the closing days of World War Two. Her pregnancy is over and she is no longer able to conceive. With her husband deployed in Burma and her friends caught up in transitory love affairs, she must find a way to put herself back together.

Unaware that her father, Jack, is caught up in his own web of secrets, she at first welcomes her family’s posting to a sleepy air force base in southern Ontario. The base, however, is home to some intriguing inhabitants, including the unconventional Froehlich family, and the odd Mr. March, whose power over the children is a secret burden that they carry. Then tragedy strikes, and a local murder intersects with global forces, binding the participants for life. As tension in the McCarthy’s household builds, Jack must decide where his loyalty lies, and Madeleine learns about the ambiguity of human morality—a lesson that will become clear only when the quest for the truth, and the killer, is renewed twenty years later.

Title: Late City Author: Robert Olen Butler Narrator: Danny Campbell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 24 minutes Release date: January 27, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A visionary and poignant audiobook centred around former newspaperman Sam Cunningham as he prepares to die, Late City covers much of the early twentieth century, unfurling as a conversation between the dying man and a surprising God. As the two review Sam's life, from his childhood in the American South and his time in the French trenches during World War I to his fledgling newspaper career in Chicago in the Roaring Twenties and the decades that follow, snippets of history are brought sharply into focus. Sam grows up in Louisiana, with a harsh father, who he comes to resent both for his physical abuse and for what Sam eventually perceives as his flawed morality. Eager to escape and prove himself, Sam enlists in the army as a sniper while still underage. The hardness his father instilled in him helps him make it out of World War I alive, but, as he recounts these tales on his deathbed, we come to realise that it also prevents him from contending with the emotional wounds of war. Back in the US, Sam moves to Chicago to begin a career as a newspaperman that will bring him close to all the major historical turns of the twentieth century. There he meets his wife and has a son, whose fate counters Sam's at almost every turn. As he contemplates his relationships - with his parents, his brothers in arms, his wife, his editor, and most importantly, his son - Sam is amazed at what he still has left to learn about himself after all these years in this heart-rending audiobook from the Pulitzer Prize winner. “Late City is an honest, poignant reckoning of what it means to gaze unblinkingly at our own failings and to find transcendence.' HISTORICAL NOVEL SOCIETY 'With two dozen remarkably imaginative and empathic fiction titles to his credit, Butler brings preternatural attunement to the spiraling of the mind and ardently honed artistry to this exceptionally nuanced, tender, funny, tragic, and utterly transfixing portrait of a man reflecting on more than a century's worth of horror and wonder.'--Booklist, starred review 'A moving tale of love and misunderstanding.'--Publishers Weekly Robert Olen Butler Thu, 27 Jan 2022 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564299 thebookvoice.com 8:24:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564299]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Above all, it is the story of a youth who, against the odds, becomes a man, and more becomes a master gunner in his own right. This is the first part of a series that will culminate in the heights of the Andes where the power of the Spanish comes up against the Incas in their mountain eyries. https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564188 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/564188]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Caesar and his small force are trapped in the Egyptian city of Alexandria. Caught up in the dynastic struggles of the House of Ptolemy, the consul has sided with the clever and ruthless Queen Cleopatra.

Turney Narrator: Malk Williams Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 55 minutes Release date: April 7, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: It is 48 BC and Caesar is master of Rome, but Pompey is at large in the huge recruiting grounds of the east with a core of powerful officers, nominally representing the senate in absentia. As the general deals with matters in the city his army gathers at the coast, waiting to cross the sea and fight that worst of all conflicts: civil war. This will be no easy campaign for Caesar and his officers. Fronto and Galronus, both preparing to join the campaign, know that they will face appalling odds right from the outset, for Pompey's immense navy controls the seas, and the force he has gathered in the east will dwarf that of Caesar, commanded by shrewd officers like the great Scipio and the turncoat Labienus. From the bitter Adriatic Sea to the mountains and valleys of the Balkans, Fronto and his men strive to stop Pompey and bring the war to an end, heading for a conflict the likes of which none have ever seen. Hades awaits the legions of Rome on the plains of Pharsalus. S. J. A.

In the present day, a dig commences on the land, and not only is a body discovered, but a sheaf of prophecies. Who killed Sorcha?

Title: The Transaction Series: #174 of Essential Prose Author: Guglielmo D'izzia Narrator: Josh Cruddas Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 0 minutes Release date: December 15, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: De Angelis, an inscrutable northerner, is travelling to a small town perched in Sicily's hinterland to negotiate a real estate transaction, only to find himself embroiled in a criminal conspiracy. While en route, the train he's on mysteriously breaks down, forcing him to spend the night in a squalid whistle stop. What follows is a web of unsettling events, involving child prostitution and brazen killings. And at the heart of it: an alluring blue-eyed girl, Marinella. The chance encounter with the eleven-year-old traps him in a psychological and moral cul-de-sac, leaving him no choice but to confront the type of man he really is.

Title: Scatterlings: A Novel Author: Resoketswe Martha Manenzhe Narrator: Christel Mutombo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 7 minutes Release date: December 13, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 2.75 of Total 8 Ratings of Narrator: 3.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A BEST NEW BOOK from *Vanity Fair *The Root *Vulture *People *The Washington Post *Christian Science Monitor *Los Angeles Times *Essence A New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice Pick! A New Yorker Best Book of the Year! A lyrical, moving novel in the spirit of Transcendent Kingdom and A Burning—and the most awarded debut title in South Africa—that tells the story of a multiracial family when the Immorality Act is passed, revealing the story of one family’s scattered souls in the wake of history. In 1927, South Africa passes the Immorality Act, prohibiting sexual intercourse between “Europeans” (white people) and “natives” (Black people). Those who break the draconian new law face imprisonment—for men of up to five years; for women, four years. Abram and his wife Alisa have their share of marital problems, but they also have a comfortable life in South Africa with their two young girls. But then the Act is passed. Alisa is black, and their two children are now evidence of their involvement in a union that has been criminalized by the state. At first, Alisa and Abram question how they’ll be affected by the Act, but then officials start asking questions at the girls’ school, and their estate is catalogued for potential disbursement. Abram is at a loss as to how to protect his young family from the grinding machinery of the law, whose worst discriminations have until now been kept at bay by the family’s economic privilege. And with this, his hesitation, the couple’s bond is tattered. Alisa, who is Jamaican and the descendant of slaves, was adopted by a wealthy white British couple, who raised her as their child. But as she grew older and realized that the prejudices of British society made no allowance for her, she journeyed to South Africa where she met Abram. In the aftermath of the Immorality Act, she comes to a heartbreaking conclusion based on her past and collective history – and she commits her own devastating act, one that will reverberate through their entire family’s lives. Intertwining her storytelling with ritual, myth, and the heart-wrenching question of who stays and who leaves, Scatterlings marks the debut of a gifted storyteller who has become a sensation in her native South Africa—and promises to take the Western literary world by storm as well.

Title: Kidnapped Author: Robert Louis Stevenson Narrator: Lois Chimimba Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 58 minutes Release date: November 24, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. Robert Louis Stevenson's Kidnapped is at once a rollicking adventure story and an earnest political allegory. This Penguin Classics edition is edited with an introduction and historical notes by Donald McFarlan, and a foreword by Alasdair Gray. Orphaned and penniless, David Balfour sets out to find his last living relative, miserly and reclusive Uncle Ebenezer. But Ebenezer is far from welcoming, and David narrowly escapes being murdered before he is kidnapped and imprisoned on a ship bound for the Carolinas. When the ship is wrecked, David, along with the fiery rebel Alan Breck, makes his way back across the treacherous Highland terrain on a quest for justice. Through his powerful depiction of the two very different central characters - the romantic Breck and the rational Whig David - Stevenson dramatized a conflict at the heart of Scottish culture in the aftermath of the Jacobite rebellion, as well as creating an unforgettable adventure story. This new edition includes a foreword by Alasdair Gray discussing Stevenson's life and literary career and how he came to write Kidnapped. In his introduction, Donald McFarlan considers the novel's realism and a depiction of Scotland. Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was born in Edinburgh, the son of a prosperous civil engineer. Although he began his career as an essayist and travel writer, the success of Treasure Island (1883) and Kidnapped (1886) established his reputation as a writer of tales of action and adventure. Stevenson's Calvinist upbringing lent him a preoccupation with predestination and a fascination with the presence of evil, themes he explored in The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886), and The Master of Ballantrae (1893). © Penguin Classics 1994 (P) Penguin Audio 2022 Robert Louis Stevenson Thu, 24 Nov 2022 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/563636 thebookvoice.com 9:58:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/563636]]> to listen full audiobooks.

When the ship is wrecked, David, along with the fiery rebel Alan Breck, makes his way back across the treacherous Highland terrain on a quest for justice. Through his powerful depiction of the two very different central characters - the romantic Breck and the rational Whig David - Stevenson dramatized a conflict at the heart of Scottish culture in the aftermath of the Jacobite rebellion, as well as creating an unforgettable adventure story. This new edition includes a foreword by Alasdair Gray discussing Stevenson's life and literary career and how he came to write Kidnapped. In his introduction, Donald McFarlan considers the novel's realism and a depiction of Scotland. Robert Louis Stevenson (1850-1894) was born in Edinburgh, the son of a prosperous civil engineer. Although he began his career as an essayist and travel writer, the success of Treasure Island (1883) and Kidnapped (1886) established his reputation as a writer of tales of action and adventure. Stevenson's Calvinist upbringing lent him a preoccupation with predestination and a fascination with the presence of evil, themes he explored in The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde (1886), and The Master of Ballantrae (1893). © Penguin Classics 1994 (P) Penguin Audio 2022 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/563636]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Bindle Punk Bruja: A Novel Author: Desideria Mesa Narrator: Frankie Corzo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 14 hours 10 minutes Release date: September 13, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Boardwalk Empire meets The Vanishing Half with a touch of earth magic in this sexy and action-packed historical fantasy set in the luminous Golden Twenties from debut author Desideria Mesa, where a part-time reporter and club owner takes on crooked city councilmen, mysterious and deadly mobsters, and society’s deeply rooted sexism and racism, all while keeping her true identity and magical abilities hidden—inspired by an ancient Mexican folktale. Yo soy quien soy. I am who I am. Luna—or depending on who’s asking, Rose—is the white-passing daughter of an immigrant mother who has seen what happens to people from her culture. This world is prejudicial, and she must hide her identity in pursuit of owning an illegal jazz club. Using her cunning powers, Rose negotiates with dangerous criminals as she climbs up Kansas City’s bootlegging ladder. Luna, however, runs the risk of losing everything if the crooked city councilmen and ruthless mobsters discover her ties to an immigrant boxcar community that secretly houses witches. Last thing she wants is to put her entire family in danger. But this bruja with ever-growing magical abilities can never resist a good fight. With her new identity, Rose, an unabashed flapper, defies societal expectations all the while struggling to keep her true self and witchcraft in check. However, the harder she tries to avoid scrutiny, the more her efforts eventually capture unwanted attention. Soon, she finds herself surrounded by greed and every brand of bigotry—from local gangsters who want a piece of the action and businessmen who hate her diverse staff to the Ku Klux Klan and Al Capone. Will her earth magic be enough to save her friends and family? As much as she hates to admit it, she may need to learn to have faith in others—and learning to trust may prove to be her biggest ambition yet. Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Title: [Russian] - Маковое море Series: #1 of Ибисная трилогия Author: амитав гош Narrator: алексей багдасаров Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 52 minutes Release date: December 9, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «Маковое море» Амитава Гоша – первая книга эпохальной трилогии о морских приключениях в девятнадцатом веке. Хитросплетенный, полный неожиданных поворотов сюжет «Макового моря» разворачивается в роскошных декорациях колониальной Индии ровно накануне опиумных войн: маковые деревни, жилища раджи, усадьбы британских колонизаторов, фабрики опиума, замкнутый мир морского судна. В центре хитросплетенной масштабной саги – парусник «Ибис», бывший работорговый корабль, на котором судьба сводит пестрый ворох поразительно разных персонажей. Юная француженка-сирота; обанкротившийся индийский раджа; сбежавшая от обряда сожжения индийская вдова; апологет новой религии; матрос-американец, неожиданно для себя ставший помощником капитана... «Ибис» должен повезти их из Индии на неведомый Маврикий, и слушателя унесет за собой захватывающая история, полная благородства и предательства, опасностей и испытаний, решимости и свободы. «Роман Гоша – не антиколониальный пафосный манифест, не дидактическая панорама картина из жизни колонии, это полные страсти истории мужчин и женщин всех рас и каст, которым предстоит навсегда оставить прошлое и пуститься в неведомое будущем на хрупком суденышке. Это, прежде всего, трогающая за душу книга». The Times «Маковое море» – настоящий триумф и как роман идей, и как резвая приключенческая история. Эта книга – та еще редкая птица: исторический роман, под завязку наполненный современной актуальностью и мелодраматическими поворотами». Boston Phoenix Внимание!

Title: Shadows of Berlin Author: David R. Gillham Narrator: Suzanne Toren Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 2 minutes Release date: April 5, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.25 of Total 4 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A captivating novel of a Berlin girl on the run from the guilt of her past and the boy from Brooklyn who loves her 1955 in New York City: the city of instant coffee, bagels at Katz’s Deli, and ultramodern TVs. But in a certain walk-up in Chelsea, the past is as close as the present. Rashka Morgenstern, now Rachel Perlman, came to Manhattan with her uncle Fritz in a wave of displaced Jews who had managed to survive the horrors of war. She had hoped to find freedom from pain, in New York and in the arms of her new American husband, Aaron. But this child of Berlin cannot outrun her guilt simply by assuming the role of American housewife, not until she can shake off the ghosts of her past. And when Uncle Fritz discovers the most shocking portrait her mother had ever painted, sitting in a dreary midtown pawnshop, Rachel’s memories begin to terrorize her, forcing her to face the choices she made to stay alive—choices that might be her undoing. From the cafés of war-torn Germany to the frantic drumbeat of 1950s Manhattan, Shadows of Berlin dramatically explores survival, guilt, redemption, and the ways in which we attempt to love and forgive across impossible divides.

Title: Death in a Blackout Series: #1 of Billie Harkness Author: Jessica Ellicott Narrator: Elizabeth Sastre Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 14 minutes Release date: May 3, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 1940. Britain is at war. Rector’s daughter Wilhelmina Harkness longs to do her duty for her country, but when her strict mother forbids her to enlist, their bitter argument has devasting consequences. Unable to stay in the village she loves, Wilhelmina—reinventing herself as Billie—spends everything she has on a one-way ticket up north. Hull is a distant, dangerous city, but Billie is determined to leave her painful memories behind and start afresh, whatever the cost. The last thing she expects on her first night in Hull, however, is to be caught in the city’s first air raid—or to stumble across the body of a young woman, suspiciously untouched by debris. If the air raid didn’t kill the glamorous stranger, what did? Billie is determined to get justice, and her persistence earns her an invitation to the newly formed Women’s Police Constabulary. But as the case unfolds, putting her at odds with both high-ranking members of the force as well as the victim’s powerful family, Billie begins to wonder if she can trust her new friends and colleagues … or if someone amongst them is working for the enemy.

Title: Victoria Station: A BBC Radio 4 Full-Cast Drama Author: Steve Chambers Narrator: Gavin Muir, John Hartley, Pauline Letts, Sean Baker, Colleen Prendergast, Philip Jackson, Julia Ford, Full Cast, Christopher Scott, Michael Tudor Barnes Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 24 minutes Release date: April 14, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The complete Series 1 and 2 of the historical drama set in a bustling Midlands railway station in the Victorian era In these two series, set on selected dates in January 1895 and December 1896, we follow the day-to-day shenanigans of Bridgford station master Joe Braddock and his staff, along with a motley crew of passengers and passers-by. Each episode is a self-contained drama, as well as telling the ongoing story of the crises and challenges tackled by the team, and their rivalries, enmities, friendships and burgeoning romances. As Series 1 begins, a goods train is derailed - just as a VIP visitor is about to arrive. As the crew scramble to clear the line, it becomes evident that the accident has damaged the Sherwood Tunnel: and something sinister lurks within. When a man is found dead, a public inquiry is launched - and as a second disaster looms, Signalman Fred Roberts fights to clear his name... In Series 2, newly promoted Regional Superintendent Archibald Cripps is hatching a plot to replace Joe as Station Manager. Adding to Joe's worries are a painful tooth, pickpockets, fare-dodgers and his daughter Josie's relationship with porter Jack Robson. But when a train gets stuck in a snowdrift, with a young pregnant woman on board, it's up to Joe and his rescue party to save the day - even if it means getting fired... Written by Steve Chambers (HighLites), these gentle, engaging plays take us back to a bygone age of travel, when the railways ruled the roost.

Title: [Spanish] - El Paraíso en la otra esquina Author: Mario Vargas Llosa Narrator: Mario Velásquez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 50 minutes Release date: December 16, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Un nexo de unión entre dos personajes que optan por dos modelos vitales opuestos que desvelan un deseo común: el de alcanzar un paraíso donde sea posible la felicidad para los seres humanos. Dos vidas: la de Flora Tristán, que pone todos sus esfuerzos en la lucha por los derechos de la mujer y de los obreros, y la de Paul Gauguin, el hombre que descubre su pasión por la pintura y abandona su existencia burguesa para viajar a Tahití en busca de un mundo sin contaminar por las convenciones. Dos concepciones del sexo: la de Flora, que solo ve en él un instrumento de dominio masculino y la de Gauguin, que lo considera una fuerza vital imprescindible puesta al servicio de su creatividad. ¿Qué tienen en común esas dos vidas desligadas y opuestas, aparte del vínculo familiar por ser Flora la abuela materna de Gauguin? Esto es lo que Vargas Llosa pone de relieve en El Paraíso en la otra esquina (2003): el mundo de utopías que fue el siglo XIX. La crítica ha dicho... «Dada la maestría de Vargas Llosa, el resultado no es que sea valioso, sino que resulta fascinante; no es una novela grande sino dos grandes novelas, dos narraciones históricas... Libro magistral, que son dos, como dos son los paraísos aquí evocados.» Rafael Conte, El País «La tarea de documentación e investigación que está detrás de su construcción es realmente impresionante y no menos el modo perfecto como realiza la fusión entre lo real y lo ficticio... en cuanto a las proporciones épicas que sus relatos pueden alcanzar, tal vez no haya ahora nadie en nuestra lengua que lo pueda superar.» José Miguel Oviedo, ABC Cultural «La novela de Vargas Llosa es una prueba de su capacidad para recrear imaginativamente el pasado y permitirnos extraer, como lectores, varias y aún contradictorias opciones morales.» Joaquín Marco, El Mundo Mario Vargas Llosa Thu, 16 Dec 2021 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/562972 thebookvoice.com 16:50:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/562972]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - El abanico de seda Author: Lisa See Narrator: Irene Montalà Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 17 minutes Release date: December 16, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Esta novela es una ventana a un mundo asombroso, lejano y desconocido, un retrato vivo de la vida de unas mujeres extraordinarias que dejará en el lector una impresión difícil de olvidar. En una remota provincia de China, las mujeres crearon hace siglos un lenguaje secreto para comunicarse libremente entre sí: el nu shu. Aisladas en sus casas y sometidas a la férrea autoridad masculina, el nu shu era su única vía de escape. Mediante sus mensajes, escritos o bordados en telas, abanicos y otros objetos, daban testimonio de un mundo tan sofisticado como implacable. El año 2002, la autora de esta novela viajó a la provincia de Huan, cuna de esta milenaria escritura fonética, para estudiarla en profundidad. Su prolongada estancia le permitió recoger testimonios de mujeres que la conocían, así como de la última hablante de nu shu, la nonagenaria Yang Huanyi. A partir de aquellas investigaciones, Lisa See concibió esta conmovedora historia sobre la amistad entre dos mujeres, Lirio Blanco y Flor de Nieve. Como prueba de su buena estrella, la pequeña Lirio Blanco, hija de una humilde familia de campesinos, será hermanada con Flor de Nieve, de muy diferente ascendencia social. En una ceremonia ancestral, ambas se convierten en laotong -«mi otro yo» o «alma gemela»-, un vínculo que perdurará toda la vida. Así pues, a lo largo de los años, Lirio Blanco y Flor de Nieve se comunicarán gracias a ese lenguaje secreto, compartiendo sus más íntimos pensamientos y emociones, y consolándose de las penalidades del matrimonio y la maternidad. El nu shu las mantendrá unidas, hasta que un error de interpretación amenazará con truncar su profunda amistad.

More than a century of famine, war, violence and love. At sixteen Nancy, the only member of her family to survive the Great Famine, leaves her small island for the mainland. Finding work in a grand house on the edge of Cork City, she feels irrepressibly drawn to the charismatic gardener Michael Egan, sparking a love affair that soon throws her into a fight for her life.

Title: The Slow March of Light: A Novel Author: Heather B. Moore Narrator: Stephen Graybill, Christa Lewis Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 54 minutes Release date: September 7, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 2.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A riveting and emotionally gripping novel of an American soldier working as a spy in Soviet-occupied East Germany and a West German woman secretly helping her countrymen escape from behind the Berlin Wall In the summer of 1961, a wall of barbed wire goes up quickly in the dead of night, officially dividing Berlin. Luisa Voigt lives in West Berlin, but her grandmother lives across the border and is now trapped inside the newly- isolated communist country of East Germany. Desperate to rescue her grandmother and aware of the many others whose families have been divided, Luisa joins a secret spy network, risking her life to help bring others through a makeshift, underground tunnel to West Germany. Their work is dangerous and not everyone will successfully escape or live to see freedom. Bob Inama was an outstanding university student with plans to attend law school when he is drafted into the US Army. Stationed in West Germany, he is glad to be fluent in German, especially after meeting Luisa Voigt at a church social. As they spend time together, they form a close connection. But when Bob receives classified orders to leave for undercover work immediately, he does not get the chance to say goodbye. With a fake identity, Bob’s special assignment is to be a spy embedded in East Germany. His undercover job will give him access to government sites to map out strategic military targets. But Soviet and East German spies, the secret police, and Stasi informants are everywhere, and eventually Bob is caught and sent to a brutal East German prison. Interrogated and tortured daily, Bob clings to any hope he can find—from the sunlight that marches across the wall of his prison to the one guard who secretly treats him with kindness to the thought of one day seeing Luisa again. Author Heather B. Moore masterfully alternates the stories of Bob and Luisa, capturing the human drama unique to Cold War Germany as well as the courage and the resilience of the human spirit.

Title: The Twilight World: Discover the first novel from the iconic filmmaker Werner Herzog Author: Werner Herzog Narrator: Werner Herzog Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 20 minutes Release date: July 7, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. The great filmmaker Werner Herzog, in his first novel, tells the incredible story of Hiroo Onoda, a Japanese soldier who defended a small island in the Philippines for twenty-nine years after the end of World War II In 1997, Werner Herzog was in Tokyo to direct an opera. His hosts asked him, Whom would you like to meet? He replied instantly: Hiroo Onoda. Onoda was a former solider famous for having quixotically defended an island in the Philippines for decades after World War II, unaware the fighting was over. Herzog and Onoda developed an instant rapport and would meet many times, talking for hours and together unraveling the story of Onoda's long war. At the end of 1944, on Lubang Island in the Philippines, with Japanese troops about to withdraw, Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda was given orders by his superior officer: Hold the island until the Imperial army's return. You are to defend its territory by guerrilla tactics, at all costs. . . . There is only one rule. You are forbidden to die by your own hand. In the event of your capture by the enemy, you are to give them all the misleading information you can. So began Onoda's long campaign, during which he became fluent in the hidden language of the jungle. Soon weeks turned into months, months into years, and years into decades-until eventually time itself seemed to melt away. All the while Onoda continued to fight his fictitious war, at once surreal and tragic, at first with other soldiers, and then, finally, alone, a character in a novel of his own making. In The Twilight World, Herzog immortalizes and imagines Onoda's years of absurd yet epic struggle in an inimitable, hypnotic style-part documentary, part poem, and part dream-that will be instantly recognizable to fans of his films. The result is a novel completely unto itself, a sort of modern-day Robinson Crusoe tale: a glowing, dancing meditation on the purpose and meaning we give our lives. © Werner Herzog 2022 (P) Penguin Audio 2022 Werner Herzog Thu, 07 Jul 2022 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/562576 thebookvoice.com 3:20:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/562576]]> to listen full audiobooks.

His hosts asked him, Whom would you like to meet? He replied instantly: Hiroo Onoda. Onoda was a former solider famous for having quixotically defended an island in the Philippines for decades after World War II, unaware the fighting was over. Herzog and Onoda developed an instant rapport and would meet many times, talking for hours and together unraveling the story of Onoda's long war. At the end of 1944, on Lubang Island in the Philippines, with Japanese troops about to withdraw, Lieutenant Hiroo Onoda was given orders by his superior officer: Hold the island until the Imperial army's return. You are to defend its territory by guerrilla tactics, at all costs. . . . There is only one rule. You are forbidden to die by your own hand. In the event of your capture by the enemy, you are to give them all the misleading information you can. So began Onoda's long campaign, during which he became fluent in the hidden language of the jungle. Soon weeks turned into months, months into years, and years into decades-until eventually time itself seemed to melt away. All the while Onoda continued to fight his fictitious war, at once surreal and tragic, at first with other soldiers, and then, finally, alone, a character in a novel of his own making. In The Twilight World, Herzog immortalizes and imagines Onoda's years of absurd yet epic struggle in an inimitable, hypnotic style-part documentary, part poem, and part dream-that will be instantly recognizable to fans of his films. The result is a novel completely unto itself, a sort of modern-day Robinson Crusoe tale: a glowing, dancing meditation on the purpose and meaning we give our lives. © Werner Herzog 2022 (P) Penguin Audio 2022 Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/562576]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Greek Myths: Modern re-tellings: A BBC Radio 4 full-cast drama collection Author: Linda Marshall Griffiths, Simon Armitage Narrator: Simon Dutton, Emily Taaffe, Polly Frame, Colin Tierney, Bryan Dick, Nico Mirallegro, Claire Price, Full Cast, Jonathan Keeble Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 21 minutes Release date: February 3, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Award winning classic stories from Greek mythology, reimagined by Simon Armitage and Linda Marshall Griffiths - plus bonus material With their epic tales of gods, heroes, magic and monsters, the Greek myths have thrilled us for over 2000 years, and inspired countless adaptations. Now, in this captivating collection, two award-winning playwrights bring their own fresh, contemporary takes to the famous legends of Odysseus, Orpheus and Eurydice. Simon Armitage's Missing Presumed Dead: The Odyssey weaves together Homeric myth and modern-day politics, as a senior politician with a colourful past is sent on a diplomatic mission to Istanbul, only to find himself at the centre of an international incident. On the run from the authorities, he is plunged into the ancient past where his Odyssey begins, as he contends with supernatural beings and unnatural phenomena from the Cyclops and Circe to Sirens, storms and shipwreck. Will he survive, and get back home? Meanwhile, in the present day, his wife and son are besieged by the press, desperate to hear the full story... This gripping dramatisation stars Colin Tierney as Smith/Odysseus. In two linked plays, with a 4-minute introduction by Simon Armitage, he and Linda Marshall Griffiths each give their versions of the tragedy of Orpheus and his doomed bride. Armitage's Eurydice and Orpheus: Her Story tells the tale of two lovers - lab technician Sanna and busking musician Zak - and a harp that will have a profound, irreversible effect on both their lives. Claire Price stars as Sanna, with Bryan Dick as Zak. And in Orpheus and Eurydice: His Story, by Linda Marshall Griffiths, grief-stricken singer Orfeo journeys into the Underworld to bring back his dead wife, Eurydice. But is love stronger than death, if a backward glance can destroy everything? Starring Nico Mirallegro as Orfeo and Emily Taaffe as Eurydice, and with music by PJ Harvey, this moving drama won the Grand Prix Marulic in 2016. Also included is a bonus extract from Radio 4's Start the Week, in which Simon Armitage talks to Anne McElvoy about his dramatisation of Homer's Iliad and Virgil's Aeneid, The Last Days of Troy.

Title: An Indiscreet Princess: A Novel of Queen Victoria’s Defiant Daughter Author: Georgie Blalock Narrator: Ann Marie Gideon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 25 minutes Release date: September 27, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Before Princess Margaret, before Duchess Meghan, there was Princess Louise: royal rebel. As the fourth daughter of the perpetually in-mourning Queen Victoria, Princess Louise’s life is more a gilded prison than a fairy tale. Expected to sit quietly next to her mother with down-cast eyes, Louise vows to escape the stultifying royal court. Blessed with beauty, artistic talent, and a common touch, she creates a life outside the walled-in existence of the palace grounds by attending the National Art Training School—where she shockingly learns to sculpt nude models while falling passionately in love with famed sculptor Joseph Edgar Boehm. But even as Louise cultivates a life outside the palace, she is constantly reminded that even royal rebels must heed the call of duty—and for a princess that means marriage. Refusing to leave England, she agrees to a match with the Duke of Argyll, and although her heart belongs to another, she is determined to act out her public role perfectly, even if her private life teeters on the brink of scandal. But when a near fatal accident forces Louise back under her mother’s iron rule, she realizes she must choose: give in to the grief of lost love or find the strength to fight for her unconventional life.

Gather around, children of Chu Dien, and be brave. For even to listen to the story of the Trung Sisters is, in these troubled times, a dangerous act.In 40 CE, in the Au Lac region of ancient Vietnam, two daughters of a Vietnamese Lord fill their days training, studying, and trying to stay true to Vietnamese traditions.

But these sister's lives—and the lives of their people—are shadowed by the oppressive rule of the Han Chinese. They are forced to adopt Confucian teachings, secure marriages, and pay ever‑increasing taxes. As the peoples' frustration boils over, the country comes ever closer to the edge of war.

Title: Haven Author: Emma Donoghue Narrator: Aidan Kelly Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 35 minutes Release date: August 23, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In this beautiful story of adventure and survival from the New York Times bestselling author of Room, three men vow to leave the world behind them as they set out in a small boat for an island their leader has seen in a dream, with only faith to guide them. In seventh-century Ireland, a scholar and priest called Artt has a dream telling him to leave the sinful world behind.

Title: [Spanish] - La biblioteca de París Author: Janet Skeslien Charles Narrator: Pablo Martínez Gugel, Rebeca Hernando, Paula Iwasaki, Sol De La Barreda Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 45 minutes Release date: December 9, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Una historia de valentía y traición basada en las vicisitudes de los trabajadores de la Biblioteca Americana de París en la Segunda Guerra Mundial. París, 1939. La joven Odile Souchet lo tiene todo: un atractivo novio oficial de policía y un trabajo de ensueño en la Biblioteca Americana de París. Pero cuando estalla la guerra y los nazis marchan sobre París, Odile se expone a perder todo lo que le importa, incluida su querida biblioteca. Sabe que en los momentos difíciles los templos de la cultura peligran porque los libros contienen palabras e ideas prohibidas que deben destruirse. Odile no puede permitir que eso suceda: debe salvar esas páginas, de modo que puedan nutrir la mente de quien llegue después. Junto con sus compañeros, se une a la Resistencia y pone el centro a disposición de los judíos: expulsados de sus casas, tras los libros se sienten seguros, y Odile los defenderá cueste lo que cueste. La crítica ha dicho... «La biblioteca de París es una novela fresca y emocionante que celebra el papel de las bibliotecas como núcleos de comunidad, especialmente cuando las más necesitamos. Nos muestra que la literatura puede ser una vía de escape, un catalizador para la conexión humana y una brújula moral en tiempos oscuros. Una lectura sumamente agradable, con mucho corazón, y rebosante de referencias que harán las delicias de los aficionados a los libros». Matthew Sullivan, autor de Midnight at the Bright Ideas Bookstore «Una carta de amor a París, al poder de los libros y a la belleza de las amistades intergeneracionales». Booklist «Un libro encantandor, rico en detalles... los lectores de literatura histórica se verán atrapados por el realismo de la narración y la amistad que se forja entre una viuda y una joven solitaria».

Title: [Spanish] - La dama oscura: La vida de Æmilia Bassano Lanyer, la mujer que Shakespeare amó en secreto y lo inspiró a escribir sus obras más famosas Author: Cristina Pérez Narrator: Cristina Pérez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 47 minutes Release date: December 6, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: La vida de Æmilia Bassano, la mujer a la que Shakespeare amó en secreto, lo inspiró para escribir sus obras más famosas y que vivió limitada por las restricciones que el renacimiento inglés imponía pero que ahora sí puede ser puesta en primer plano y dada a conocer en todo su esplendor. En pleno siglo XVI, las mujeres casi no tenían derechos en Inglaterra. No sabían leer ni escribir. Æmilia Bassano Lanyer, nacida en una familia de músicos y con formación de princesa, iba a enfrentar un mundo donde hasta la reina Elizabeth I pagaba el precio de ser mujer. Æmilia llegó a la corte como intérprete musical y compositora, pero también como amante de uno de los hombres más poderosos del reino. Fue la primera mujer en publicar un libro en la literatura inglesa y eso la uniría con un poeta y dramaturgo que empezaba a descollar: William Shakespeare. Subyugado por la misteriosa belleza e intelectualidad de Æmilia, él dejaría en sus sonetos registro de ese amor. Allí la menciona crípticamente como 'la dama oscura' y hay investigaciones que aseguran que fue coautora de algunas de sus obras e inspiración de historias de origen italiano como Romeo y Julieta. En esta novela, Cristina Pérez busca unir los puntos históricos de un amor que inventó el amor, y recrea un lenguaje y una atmósfera de época con ritmo contemporáneo. Una rigurosa investigación es el telón de fondo para desentrañar quién fue Æmilia Bassano Lanyer, una mujer encorsetada por los límites del renacimiento inglés que, sin embargo, estuvo por delante de su tiempo como pionera de la mujer moderna y libre.

Title: Masters' India Saga: A BBC Radio 4 full-cast dramatisation Author: John Masters Narrator: Saeed Jaffrey, Renu Setna, Terence Alexander, Gary Bond, David Collings, Michael Cochrane, Bill Nighy, Full Cast, Juliet Stevenson Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 16 hours 30 minutes Release date: February 24, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: An 18-part serialisation of John Masters' chronicles of the Savage family, spanning the years 1825-1946 and set against the backdrop of British rule in India Based on the hugely popular novels of John Masters, this landmark BBC Radio adaptation charts the history of the British in India through the perspective of one family over several generations. Ranging over more than 120 years, these thrilling tales of love, murder and espionage take us from the expansion of the East India Company to the last days of the Raj and the approach of Independence. The Deceivers - 1825. When Company official William Savage witnesses a brutal double murder and uncovers grisly evidence of mass ritual sacrifice, he is drawn into the dark world of the thuggee and their murderous, Kali-worshipping cult. Can he escape with his honour - and his soul - intact? Starring David Collings, Saeed Jaffrey, and Terence Alexander. Night Runners of Bengal - 1856, and William's son Rodney is an officer in the Bengal Army. His life is one of security and privilege - but a guru's prophecy, and disturbing events surrounding the Rani of Kishanpur, are harbingers of seismic change to come. Across India, the Great Rebellion is rising... Starring Michael Cochrane, Eva Haddon, Carole Boyd and Renu Setna. The Lotus and the Wind - 1879. Britain and Russia are deadly rivals in the 'Great Game'. At the centre of the conflict is Afghanistan, where soldier-turned-spy Lt Robin Savage is attempting to thwart Russian intelligence. Meanwhile, the woman he loves, Anne Hildreth, witnesses a murder en route to Peshawar... Starring Bill Nighy, Juliet Stevenson, John Rowe. Bhowani Junction - 1946, and India is heading for self-rule. But when Independence comes, what will happen to Anglo-Indians Patrick Taylor and Victoria Jones? As they search for their true identity amidst Britain's turbulent withdrawal, Colonel Rodney Savage hunts for saboteurs seeking to blow up Bhowani's railway... Starring Gary Bond, Sean Barrett and Shireen Shah.

Title: [Spanish] - Los hijos de la Diosa Huracán Author: Daína Chaviano Narrator: Tatiana Flores Infante Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 28 hours 59 minutes Release date: December 9, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Dos mujeres fuertes y valientes, enfrentadas a la codicia, la barbarie y al crimen, se ven unidas a través de los siglos por un misterioso legado que puede alterar el futuro de Cuba. Una apasionante historia que empezó hace más de quinientos años y que solo ahora puede terminar. Alicia Solomon apenas recuerda algo de sus primeros años de vida. Solo sabe que apareció abandonada en una balsa, de muy pequeña, y que fue recogida por unos marineros en alta mar. Ahora, convertida en una experta en documentos antiguos, se enfrenta al mayor reto de su carrera: descifrar un enigmático manuscrito hallado en una misteriosa tumba indígena no muy lejos de La Habana; una tarea que se vuelve más peligrosa a medida que Alicia se da cuenta de que hay personas dispuestas a matar para que ese texto, escrito por una mujer desconocida en el siglo XVI, jamás vea la luz. Y es que, más de quinientos años atrás, existió un testigo excepcional de la conquista española. Juana, una joven recién llegada a la isla de los huracanes, se convirtió en la voz de esos pueblos sometidos y en el origen de una dinastía valerosa y justa, perseguida por quienes aún hoy no dudarán en eliminar a cuantos se opongan a su codicia y a su insaciable sed de poder. Una aventura plagada de secretos, enigmas, mitos y conspiraciones, que retrata la eterna lucha entre la dignidad y la opresión, entre la inocencia y la más depravada codicia. Reseña: «He disfrutado mucho de Los hijos de la diosa huracán de Daína Chaviano. Un thriller histórico trepidante que pone en valor el legado de los pueblos indígenas anteriores a la colonización española al tiempo que plantea una intriga actual intensa y adictiva.

The Somme, 1916. James Falconer, once a barrow boy on a London market, stands in the trenches, awaiting the command to go over the top. Away from his business empire in London, he is simply a soldier, war the great leveller. But, unlike his men, and unknown to them, deep down, Falconer doesn’t care if he lives or dies. When a face from the past offers James the chance to repair his fractured relationship with his estranged daughter, Leonie, he must decide if he can hold different things dear – and make space in his life for love.

James must weather myriad storms as he attempts to right past wrongs and build a new life.

Title: Hard Times Author: Charles Dickens Narrator: Geoffrey Giuliano And The Camden Towne Players Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 50 minutes Release date: November 27, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “Do the wise thing and the kind thing too, and make the best of us and not the worst.” “Now, what I want is Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts; nothing else will ever be of any service to them.” ― Charles Dickens, Hard Times Hard Times is the tenth novel by Charles Dickens, first published in 1854. The book surveys English society and satirizes the social and economic conditions of the era. Hard Times is unusual in several ways. It is by far the shortest of Dickens's novels, barely a quarter of the length of those written immediately before and after it. Moreover, it is his only novel not to have scenes set in London. Instead, the story is set in the fictitious Victorian industrial Coketown, a generic Northern English mill-town. The story concerns one Thomas Gradgrind, a 'fanatic of the demonstrable fact,' who raises his children, Tom and Louisa, in a stifling and arid atmosphere of grim practicality. A classic audiobook publishing event. Produced by Macc Kay Production executive Avalon Giuliano ICON Intern Eden Garret Giuliano ©2021 Eden Garret Giuliano (P) 2021 Eden Garret Giuliano Geoffrey Giuliano is the author of over thirty internationally bestselling biographies, including the London Sunday Times bestseller 'Blackbird: The Life and Times of Paul McCartney' and 'Dark Horse: The Private Life of George Harrison'. He can be heard on the Westwood One Radio Network and has written and produced over seven hundred original spoken word albums and video documentaries on various aspects of popular culture. In addition, Giuliano is an occasional lecturer at Northwestern University.

Title: Scraps of Heaven Author: Arnold Zable Narrator: Evelyn Krape Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 1 minute Release date: November 11, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Scraps of Heaven is a new recording of Arnold Zable’s classic novel set in the post-war immigrant, working-class Melbourne suburb of Carlton. Evoking parallels with the vibrant immigrant neighbourhoods of New York’s Lower East side, and London’s East End, Scraps of Heaven records the travails and hopes of an immigrant Jewish family, interwoven with a multiplicity of characters from many cultures and walks of life. The book is read by renowned Australian actor, Evelyn Krape. As much performance as a reading, Krape channels the diverse voices of the neighbourhood, and performs the song lyrics that are interwoven into the text. The reader is taken on a panoramic journey through the neighbourhood streets, the laneways, the vacant lots, backyard boxing gyms, rundown terrace cottages, and countless other locations. Zable recreates evenings at Melbourne’s Yiddish theatre, the Italian dance halls, and the many spaces where people gathered, and communities were rebuilt. At the heart of the novel are Zofia and Romek, and their son Josh. Zofia, once a performer of Yiddish song in pre-war Poland, is deeply disturbed by a tragic past. Romek, a Yiddish poet, is burdened by the demands of making a living and rebuilding his life, and Josh is drawn to the streets, and respite from the ghosts which inhabit the house. With musical direction by Tomi Kalinski, original compositions by Melbourne musician Gideon Preiss, and audio production by Toby Bender and Marty Lubran— and ranging from Yiddish folk, post-war jazz standards, to popular contemporary hits — the musical references provide a soundscape of the times. Working closely with the author, Evelyn Krape's narration captures the novel’s optimism, edged with the sorrow of a changing world, in a virtuoso performance of a much-loved novel.

PREMIO STREGA 2019 Y UNO DE LOS MEJORES LIBROS DE 2020 SEGÚN EL PAÍS, JOTDOWN Y TRENDENCIAS «Se esperaba desde hace décadas. Una obra maestra» Roberto Saviano «Una de las novelas del año.» Ignacio Martínez de Pisón La historia humana está plagada de individuos cuyos nombres perdurarán por siempre; hay otros tan icónicos que se los conoce solo por su nombre de pila. Pero existe otra categoría, la de aquellos que ni siquiera pueden ser nombrados y para quienes basta con una letra: a ella pertenece Benito Mussolini. Esta es la biografía novelada de un hombre y, a través de él, también la de una época entera, la del surgimiento del fascismo. Pero M. El hijo del siglo es sobre todo una historia vibrante, hipnótica, con la profundidad de un ensayo y el ritmo narrativo de la mejor ficción contemporánea, sobre cómo una sociedad decidió entregarse a los delirios de grandeza de un solo hombre. La crítica ha dicho... «Scurati hace una magnífica labor de historiador y escritor: [...] una novela fascinante». Íñigo Errejón, Babelia «Una novela [de] incontestables conquistas literarias [...]. Scurati revisa la historia. Como Yourcenar, Gore Vidal, Sebald, Echenoz o Cercas. [...] Al partisano y narrador Italo Calvino le hubiese encantado». Javier Aparicio Maydeu, El País «Un análisis de la personalidad de Mussolini absolutamente maravilloso porque a través de él pasa todo el siglo XX, esa parte del siglo XX: las entreguerras.

Title: [Spanish] - Madrid Author: Antonio Gómez Rufo Narrator: Javier Portugués (portu) Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 28 hours 16 minutes Release date: November 18, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Esta es la gran novela de Madrid. Su historia, su épica, su vida cotidiana. Siendo de todos, Madrid nunca fue de nadie. De ahí su grandeza y su sencillez, su orgullo y su humildad, su carácter revolucionario y su dignidad. A través de tres apasionantes sagas familiares, Antonio Gómez Rufo traza el emocionante relato literario de Madrid, desde una mañana de 1565 en que los jóvenes Juan Posada, Alonso Vázquez y Guzmán de Tarazona atraviesan por primera vez la antigua Puerta del Sol dispuestos a probar suerte en la Villa y Corte, hasta los atentados del Once de Marzo de 2004, cuando la tragedia golpea una vez más el corazón de una de las ciudades más hermosas del mundo. Las personas pasan, los relatos acaban y los ríos se despeñan y apaciguan antes de ahogarse en el mar; pero las ciudades permanecen y su historia no se detiene en su lento viaje hacia la eternidad.

Title: The Island We Left Behind Author: Kate Hewitt Narrator: Kitty Kelly Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 13 minutes Release date: February 28, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: 'I love you. Of course I do. But we haven't any choice in the matter, do we? If our little boy's health, even his survival, is at stake, we have to do whatever it takes.' 1928, New York City: Ellen and Lucas Lyman have made a heart-wrenching decision to leave their beloved Amherst Island behind in search of a new life. The island was once the home of their hearts: where they had met as children, become friends, and over time found love. But New York City was calling, and it was everything they'd hoped for and more. With Lucas making money on the stock market, and Ellen finding fulfilment as a mother, at first they are happy raising their family, together, in the most exciting city in the world. Until their beloved son Jamie becomes perilously ill, and Ellen is given an impossible choice. With Lucas unable to leave his job, it is down to her to take Jamie to a place he might recover even if it means making the journey across America without him. Ellen knows what she must do. What every mother would do to save their child. Even if it takes her further away from the man she loves—and every place she has called home—than ever before.

Guns and Money. And Sometimes, Lawyers. The long-awaited return of Smoke Jensen's son ignites a powder keg of problems for the town of Big Rock, Colorado. This time, it's personal—and definitely fatal . . . DARK NIGHT IN BIG ROCK Smoke Jensen is mighty proud of his son Louis for finishing law school. But he can't help being a little disappointed that Louis isn't returning to the Sugarloaf Ranch. Instead, he's setting up his own law practice in nearby Big Rock—a career choice that turns out to be every bit as dangerous as fending off cattle rustlers. The boy's first case lands him smack in the middle of a heated dispute between two riled-up ranchers over water rights. If Louis can't settle them down, the whole thing could blow up into a bloody range war. Then a scheming con man shows up in town to stir up trouble—and ends up dead. Now Louis has to defend his sister's boyfriend on murder charges. What's worse, the real killer is still out there. And he's ready to slaughter again . . . Smoke Jensen's son may be a lawyer now. But if there's one thing he learned from his daddy, it's that in places like Big Rock, men live and die by one law alone: the law of the gun . . . J.A. Johnstone, William W.

Biltmore House, a palatial mansion being built by the Vanderbilts, American “royalty,” is in its final stages of construction in North Carolina. The country’s grandest example of privilege, it symbolizes the aspirations of its owner and the dreams of a girl, just as driven, who lives in its shadow. Kerry MacGregor’s future is derailed when, after two years in college in New York City, family obligations call her home to the beautiful Appalachians. She is determined to distance herself from the opulence she sees rising in the Blue Ridge Mountains, however close its reach. Her family’s land is among the last pieces required to complete the Biltmore Estate. But something more powerful than an ambitious Vanderbilt heir could change Kerry’s fate as, one by one, more outsiders descend on the changing landscape—a fugitive from Sicily, a reporter chasing a groundbreaking story, a debutante tainted by scandal, and a conservationist prepared to put anyone at risk to stoke the resentment of the locals. As Kerry finds herself caught in a war between wealth and poverty, innocence and corruption, she must navigate not only her own pride and desperation to survive but also the temptations of fortune and the men who control it.

Title: The Empress: A Novel Author: Laura Martínez-Belli Narrator: Yareli Arizmendi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 55 minutes Release date: December 1, 2020 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From a bestselling author in Mexico comes her English-language debut—an enthralling historical novel about the tragic reign of Empress Carlota of Mexico. It’s 1863. Napoleon III has installed a foreign monarch in Mexico to squash the current regime. Maximilian von Habsburg of Austria accepts the emperor’s crown. But it is his wife, the brilliant and ambitious Princess Charlotte, who throws herself passionately into the role. Known to the people as Empress Carlota, she rules deftly from behind the scenes while her husband contents himself with philandering and decorating the palace. But Carlota bears a guilty secret. Trapped in a loveless marriage, she’s thrown herself into a reckless affair. Desire has blinded Carlota to its consequences, for it has left her vulnerable to her sole trusted confidante. Carlota’s devious lady-in-waiting has political beliefs of her own—and they are strong enough to cause her to betray the empress and join a plot to depose her from the throne.

Title: The Empress: A Novel Author: Laura Martínez-Belli Narrator: Yareli Arizmendi Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 55 minutes Release date: December 1, 2020 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: From a bestselling author in Mexico comes her English-language debut—an enthralling historical novel about the tragic reign of Empress Carlota of Mexico. It’s 1863. Napoleon III has installed a foreign monarch in Mexico to squash the current regime. Maximilian von Habsburg of Austria accepts the emperor’s crown. But it is his wife, the brilliant and ambitious Princess Charlotte, who throws herself passionately into the role. Known to the people as Empress Carlota, she rules deftly from behind the scenes while her husband contents himself with philandering and decorating the palace. But Carlota bears a guilty secret. Trapped in a loveless marriage, she’s thrown herself into a reckless affair. Desire has blinded Carlota to its consequences, for it has left her vulnerable to her sole trusted confidante. Carlota’s devious lady-in-waiting has political beliefs of her own—and they are strong enough to cause her to betray the empress and join a plot to depose her from the throne.

Title: [Spanish] - El mercader de libros Author: Luis Zueco Narrator: álvaro Ramos Toajas Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 21 hours 11 minutes Release date: December 2, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Todo gran viaje comienza en los libros. Con una perfecta unión de rigor histórico e intriga, Luis Zueco traslada al lector a una época en que la palabra impresa podía ser el arma más peligrosa. Hubo un tiempo en que los libros podían descubrir nuevos mundos, tambalear los dogmas más sagrados y cambiar el curso de la Historia. Esta novela es un viaje a los años siguientes a la invención de la imprenta, cuando un mercader de libros emprende la búsqueda de un misterioso ejemplar que ha sido robado de la mayor biblioteca de Occidente, creada en Sevilla por el hijo de Cristóbal Colón. Año 1517. El joven Thomas atraviesa la incipiente Europa renacentista huyendo de su pasado. Son los años siguientes al descubrimiento de América y la invención de la imprenta, un periodo de profundos cambios que han supuesto el fin de la Edad Media. La curiosidad que siente por el Nuevo Mundo, cosechada en sus múltiples lecturas, le llevará hasta España, donde comenzará a trabajar con un mercader de libros. El encargo de localizar un ejemplar envuelto en un halo misterioso le conduce hasta Sevilla, una próspera ciudad que sirve como enlace en el comercio con las Indias y que alberga, entre sus murallas, la biblioteca más importante de Occidente, creada por el hijo de Cristóbal Colón y llamada la Colombina. Será precisamente allí donde Thomas descubra que alguien ha robado el libro que él busca y, por alguna razón, tiene mucho interés en que nadie lo encuentre. Hubo un tiempo en que los libros permitían descubrir nuevos mundos, tambalear los dogmas más sagrados y cambiar el curso de la Historia. Luis Zueco nos sumerge en los albores de la bibliofilia y nos traslada, en una perfecta unión de rigor histórico y trama trepidante, a una época en la que la palabra impresa podía ser el arma más peligrosa. La crítica ha dicho: «En la estela de Los pilares de la Tierra y La catedral del mar.» La Vanguardia «Tramas oscuras, traiciones, venganza: las novelas de Zueco aseguran al lector un suspenso constante.» Alessandra Penna, editorial Newton Compton Editori (Italia) Luis Zueco Thu, 02 Dec 2021 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/559227 thebookvoice.com 21:11:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/559227]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - El expediente Anna Ajmátova Author: Alberto Ruy Sánchez Narrator: Carla Barreto Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 28 minutes Release date: December 2, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: «Aunque en mi nombre hay agua purificadora, en mis manos y en mi boca todo quema.» Anna Ajmátova Para Anna, encontrar su voz fue la única manera posible de estar en el mundo. Nunca imaginó los efectos de su poesía sutil y afilada en tantas personas distintas. Ésta es la historia del torbellino de pasiones que desencadenó en cada una. Desde la envidia del hombre más poderoso y vengativo de su época hasta la atormentada admiración de la mujer encargada de vigilarla y delatarla. Desde la ciudad de San Petersburgo previa a la Revolución, como en un teatro de asombros, nos volvemos testigos de su relación compleja con los creadores de su tiempo y, sobre todo, con el poeta más reconocido de su generación, Nicolai Gumilyov, su primer esposo, asesinado en 1921, en uno de los primeros procesos masivos de inocentes planeados por Lenin y que se volverían recurrentes en los años del terror estalinista. Una década antes, ella misma nos cuenta su intensa y breve historia de amor, en París, con Amedeo Modigliani. Novela collage, novela documental, expediente de hechos y rumores escritos con una poesía retenida en pequeñas hojas de corteza de abedul, como se hacía en el gulag. Una novela sobre el poder de las palabras. La crítica ha dicho: «En su prosa nítida y rápida, Alberto Ruy Sánchez relata historias complejas en las que la psicología individual se mezcla a la política colectiva, la literatura a la pasión por la justicia, la introspección del solitario a la sed de fraternidad, la duda a la creencia. Duelo entre la fe, que es amor a nuestros ídolos y a nuestros correligionarios, y el difícil amor a la verdad. […] Ruy Sánchez no se limita a relatar: examina y desentraña.» Octavio Paz «Aprecio en los libros de Ruy Sánchez la búsqueda de la forma necesaria para cada historia que cuenta. Es algo excepcional en tiempos donde se cultiva lo contrario y eso hace de él un escritor extramuros. […] De sus relatos y ensayos hablamos con Susan Sontag, quien lo leyó y comentó atentamente, con Luce López Baralt y Severo Sarduy, que escribieron sobre él, con Octavio Paz, ampliamente, y todos coincidimos en esa apasionada singularidad.» Juan Goytisolo «Alberto Ruy Sánchez devuelve el ensayo a la narración y el relato a la biografía. Incluso cuando dedica su tiempo a leer a los rusos victimados o disidentes, lo hace con la misma atención al lector que lo acompaña; después de todo, los autoritarismos y fundamentalismos son monologantes y nos niegan el turno de la palabra.» Julio Ortega Alberto Ruy Sánchez Thu, 02 Dec 2021 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/559223 thebookvoice.com 8:28:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/559223]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Ghetto Within: A Novel Author: Santiago H. Amigorena Narrator: Steven Jay Cohen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 32 minutes Release date: August 23, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: In his English language debut, Santiago H. Amigorena writes to fight the silence that “has stifled [him] since [he] was born”, weaving together fiction, biography, and memoir to distill a stirring novel of loss and unshakeable love. A critical sensation in France, The Ghetto Within is its author’s personal attempt to confront his grandfather’s silence. Passed down, from generation to generation, the silence of Amigorena’s grandfather became his own. A gripping study of inheritance,The Ghetto Within re-imagines the life of this Jewish grandfather, a Polish exile in Argentina, whose guilt provokes an enduring silence to span generations. 1928. Vicente Rosenberg is one of countless European émigrés making a new life for themselves in Argentina. It is here, along the bustling avenues of Buenos Aires, that he will meet and marry Rosita, whose ties to his native Poland are more ancestral than extant. They will have three children and pursue a quiet, comfortable domestic life. Vicente will start a profitable business and, on occasion, look back. Still, despite success, he will ache for his mother, Gustawa, who stayed behind in Warsaw with his siblings. For years, she writes him several times a month. Yet, as rumors mount from abroad, Vicente is given pause. The war in Europe feels so remote. Over time, his mother's letters become increasingly sporadic and Vicente, through delayed missives and late transmissions, begins to construct the reality of a tragedy that has already occurred. And one day, the letters stop altogether. Racked with guilt and anxiety over the fate of his mother and family, he lapses into a deep despair and longstanding silence. With his new novel, Amigorena employs language to reclaim his ''voice'' from the oblivion of familial trauma. An effort to understand the ways in which his grandfather’s silence continues to affect the generations that followed,The Ghetto Within is a powerful new addition to Holocaust canon, a stunning introduction of an essential new voice to English readers.  Translated from the French by Frank Wynne.

Perfect for fans of Kate Quinn and Ariel Lawhon. Rome, 1943. With the fall of Italy's Fascist government and the Nazi regime occupying the streets of Rome, British ballerina Julia Bradbury is stranded and forced to take refuge at a hospital on Tiber Island. But when she learns of a deadly sickness sweeping through the quarantine wards--a fake disease known only as Syndrome K--she is drawn into one of the greatest cons in history. Alongside hospital staff, friars of the adjoining church, and two Allied medics, Julia risks everything to rescue Jewish Italians from the deadly clutches of the Holocaust. Soon a little girl who dreams of becoming a ballerina arrives at their door, and Julia is determined to reunite the young dancer with her family--if only she would reveal one crucial secret: her name. Present Day. Delaney Coleman recently lost her grandfather--a beloved small-town doctor and World War II veteran, so she returns home to help her aging parents. When a mysterious Italian woman reaches out claiming to own one of the family's precious heirlooms, Delaney is compelled to travel to Italy and uncover the truth of her grandfather's hidden past. With the help of the woman's skeptical but charming grandson, Delaney learns of a Roman hospital that saved hundreds of Jewish people during the war.

Title: The Queen of Dirt Island Author: Donal Ryan Narrator: Emma Lowe Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 46 minutes Release date: August 18, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. From the multi-award-winning author of the number one bestseller, STRANGE FLOWERS, a searing, jubilant story about four generations of women and fierce love. The Aylward women of Nenagh, Tipperary, are mad about each other, but you wouldn't always think it. You'd have to know them to know - in spite of what the neighbours might say about raised voices and dramatic scenes - that their house is a place of peace, filled with love, a refuge from the sadness and cruelty of the world. Their story begins at an end and ends at a beginning. It involves wives and widows, gunrunners and gougers, sinners and saints. It's a story of terrible betrayals and fierce loyalties, of isolation and togetherness, of transgression, forgiveness, desire, and love. About all the things family can be and all the things it sometimes isn't. From the prize-winning author of Strange Flowers and The Spinning Heart, The Queen of Dirt Island is an uplifting celebration of fierce, loyal love and the powerful stories that bind generations together.

In a quiet Surrey village sits Leventree, an architectural practice set up by idealistic couple Florence and Arthur Mayhood, offering apprenticeships to young offenders after their release.

Title: [Spanish] - Belgravia Author: Julian Fellowes Narrator: Belén Roca Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 14 minutes Release date: December 2, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: La novela en la que se basa la exitosa serie de televisión. Por el creador de Downton Abbey. Muy cerca de Buckingham Palace, tras las puertas de las grandes mansiones del Londres victoriano, reinan el escándalo y la intriga. Bienvenidos a Belgravia. La noche del 15 de junio de 1815 la flor y nata de la sociedad británica se reúne en Bruselas para celebrar una fiesta que se convertirá en una de las más trágicas de la historia: el baile de gala de la duquesa de Richmond en honor del duque de Wellington. Al día siguiente, muchos de los apuestos jóvenes que han acudido a la recepción se encontrarán luchando, y muriendo, en el campo de batalla de Waterloo. Para la joven Sophia Trenchard, la bella hija de un próspero comerciante, esta es la noche que lo cambiará todo. Pero solo veinticinco años más tarde, cuando los ambiciosos Trenchard se muden al nuevo barrio de moda en Londres, Belgravia, comenzarán a conocerse las repercusiones de ese momento. Porque en este incipiente mundo, en el que los emergentes nuevos ricos se codean con la más arraigada aristocracia, hay quienes prefieren que los secretos del pasado sigan enterrados... Reseñas: «Simplemente una lectura maravillosa. Un clásico moderno que llenará el hueco que dejó Downton Abbey.» Daily Express «Una trama repleta de sorpresas, diálogos frescos y una ambientación fascinante.» The New York Times «El arranque es estupendo, con un romance que desafía las clases sociales.» Mail on Sunday «Escrita con agilidad, esta novela te hace pasar las páginas a toda velocidad con el suspense de un thriller... Una lectura inteligente y envolvente que refleja de forma brillante un mundo que ya no existe.» Woman & Home «Belgravia es una entretenida y fascinante historia sobre el tema favorito de Fellowes: las clases sociales. Hará las delicias de muchos lectores.» Sunday Times En los blogs... «Su ambientación es espectacular y su prosa directa y sencilla hacen que sea una lectura que se devora en pocos días.» Blog Libros y literatura «Déjate seducir por una propuesta que no te va a defraudar, una historia de enredos, secretos, amor y escándalos que nos va sorprendiendo y manteniendo en vilo a lo largo de toda la lectura.

La noche del 15 de junio de 1815 la flor y nata de la sociedad británica se reúne en Bruselas para celebrar una fiesta que se convertirá en una de las más trágicas de la historia: el baile de gala de la duquesa de Richmond en honor del duque de Wellington. Al día siguiente, muchos de los apuestos jóvenes que han acudido a la recepción se encontrarán luchando, y muriendo, en el campo de batalla de Waterloo. Para la joven Sophia Trenchard, la bella hija de un próspero comerciante, esta es la noche que lo cambiará todo. Pero solo veinticinco años más tarde, cuando los ambiciosos Trenchard se muden al nuevo barrio de moda en Londres, Belgravia, comenzarán a conocerse las repercusiones de ese momento. Porque en este incipiente mundo, en el que los emergentes nuevos ricos se codean con la más arraigada aristocracia, hay quienes prefieren que los secretos del pasado sigan enterrados...

Title: Pontius Pilate: A Novel Author: Paul L. Maier Narrator: David Colacci Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 15 hours 2 minutes Release date: February 22, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Award-winning historian and bestselling author Paul L. Maier has created a compelling style of documentary fiction. He uses what is historically known of Pilate's life, adds in the known political climate of first-century Judea, and unveils the colorful, untold story that changed history. He provides intriguing answers to questions such as: ● What really happened at that most famous of trials? ● Were the proceedings against Jesus legal? ● Did cowardice or necessity motivate Pilate's judgment? ● What became of this successful Roman politician after his verdict? Filling in the details of Pilate's early career in Rome, Maier captures the drama of imperial Rome under Tiberius Caesar, the plotting of his political allies and enemies, and his relationship with his beloved but ambitious wife, Procula. His great moment arrives as he exchanges the intrigues of Rome for the bewildering environment of Judea, navigating new and dangerous waters. In Pontius Pilate, Maier paints a picture for modern readers to help them understand the behind-the-scenes complexities, political and religious realities, and ultimately, the humanity of the people we know from Scripture.

Title: A Quiet Cadence: A Novel Author: Mark Treanor Narrator: Andrew B. Wehrlen Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 14 minutes Release date: February 15, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Family and friends know Marty McClure as a kind, peaceful man. They aren't aware that when he was young, he plumbed the depths of despair with no assurance he'd ever surface again. Now he needs to reveal what happened in Vietnam and how, with the help of Patti, his wife; Corrie Corrigan, a disabled vet; and Doc Matheson, a corpsman turned trauma surgeon, he made peace with the ghosts that have visited his dreams all these years. With the perception and reflection of a man on the cusp of retirement from a career teaching high school kids, Marty recalls the relentless intensity of prolonged combat as a teenage Marine machine gunner facing booby traps and battles in a war with few boundaries. Arriving in Vietnam, he is appalled by the savagery of his fellow Marines as they hunt an enemy indistinguishable from the villagers he believes they are there to protect. But as friends are crippled or killed over the ensuing months, Marty has to fight not only the enemy but the vicious darkness growing in him. Wounded and sent back to the US, he struggles to make sense of all he has lost in a war his country abandoned. He works to become a good husband, father, and teacher while he rails against friends' enthusiasm for the Memorial and the Welcome Home for Vietnam Veterans planned in DC. Only if he accepts help from his wife and his friends will he find real peace.

Title: Wagon Mound: Do or Die Series: #2 of Cowan Family Saga Author: Russell J. Atwater Narrator: Scott Miller Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 36 minutes Release date: March 8, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: After Fort Dodge, wagon master Bruce Cowan had hoped the journey to Wagon Mound would get easier. That lasted but a few days. It horrified the settlers when they came across the burning remains of a smaller wagon train. Not one survivor. Bandits attacked this time, not Indians. Every day brings a fresh crisis. Trent and Pat, the McLeod brothers, with their gun fighting skills, provide Bruce and the wagon train protection and much needed guidance. Sometime even that isn't enough when they face mother nature at her most destructive. The savage Comanches are on the warpath. The Arapahos are also on a killing spree since the massacre of Sand Creek. Trent and Pat do their best to avoid these threats. When attacked, many times by surprise, there are deadly consequences. Throughout it all, Trent tries his best to get closer to Becky Cowan. Just when he thinks things are going well, something else comes up to drive a wedge between them again. The settlers must remain on guard at all times as obstacles confront them. Will the Cowans reach Wagon Mound or perish in the desert as others have before them? Should they continue their perilous journey west or leave the trail and set up their homestead? Russell J.

Title: [Spanish] - Es cuento largo Author: Günter Grass Narrator: Eugenio Gómez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 26 hours 31 minutes Release date: December 2, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Alemania entre la caída del Muro y la Unificación, entre el júbilo y la resaca, desde el punto de vista de Günter Grass. Una obra maestra, un punto de vista insólito e irritante para muchos. Diciembre hiela, y el Muro está cayendo. Dos viejos (uno alto y enjuto, otro pequeño y rechoncho; uno de pasos largos, bastón y bufanda al viento, otro de pasitos cortos, con una cartera repleta de documentos) se acercan a la Potsdamer Platz, atraviesan la abierta frontera y doblan a la derecha, camino de la Puerta de Brandeburgo, a lo largo del Muro... Dos viejos que tienen cosas en común: sus recuerdos se remontan muy lejos en el tiempo, ambos viven según el modelo de sus predecesores y tienen el pasado tan presente y actual como la vida de todos los días... Un panorama profundamente literario de la historia alemana, desde la Revolución de marzo de 1848 hasta nuestros días. Una demostración de que el tiempo está dentro del tiempo, una deslumbrante muestra de talento literario y percepción del mundo. En pocas palabras: una novela magistral de Günter Grass. La crítica ha dicho: «El secreto de Grass radica en el equilibrio precario y único que ha conseguido crear entre su anárquica fuerza imaginativa y su raciocinio artístico superior.» Hans Magnus Enzensberger «Un autor que se ha hecho responsable de forma ejemplar de la credibilidad alemana en el mundo.» Adolf Muschg «Grass escribe como testigo de su época. Su proyecto literario se erige contra el olvido y el silenciamiento del pasado.» Cecilia Dreymuller «Una cuya novela que apareció en momentos en que en el este del país la euforia había dado paso a cierta desilusión debido al aumento del desempleo y a lo que muchos sentían como una pérdida de identidad. Fue un escándalo político: [...] Grass inauguró el subgénero que luego sería seguido por otros desde perspectivas no tan claramente políticas.» La Vanguardia Günter Grass Thu, 02 Dec 2021 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/558617 thebookvoice.com 26:31:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/558617]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: [Spanish] - Es cuento largo Author: Günter Grass Narrator: Eugenio Gómez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 26 hours 31 minutes Release date: December 2, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Alemania entre la caída del Muro y la Unificación, entre el júbilo y la resaca, desde el punto de vista de Günter Grass. Una obra maestra, un punto de vista insólito e irritante para muchos. Diciembre hiela, y el Muro está cayendo. Dos viejos (uno alto y enjuto, otro pequeño y rechoncho; uno de pasos largos, bastón y bufanda al viento, otro de pasitos cortos, con una cartera repleta de documentos) se acercan a la Potsdamer Platz, atraviesan la abierta frontera y doblan a la derecha, camino de la Puerta de Brandeburgo, a lo largo del Muro... Dos viejos que tienen cosas en común: sus recuerdos se remontan muy lejos en el tiempo, ambos viven según el modelo de sus predecesores y tienen el pasado tan presente y actual como la vida de todos los días... Un panorama profundamente literario de la historia alemana, desde la Revolución de marzo de 1848 hasta nuestros días. Una demostración de que el tiempo está dentro del tiempo, una deslumbrante muestra de talento literario y percepción del mundo. En pocas palabras: una novela magistral de Günter Grass.

His charms, however, are lost on a well-bred lady like Olivia. After their disastrous meeting, she wants nothing to do with him. Neville, on the other hand, feels something he has not felt in a long time. Olivia makes the darkest days of his past feel a bit more bearable. But since Olivia has made up her mind on Neville and he is not in the market for a wife, it would take a miracle for them to get together—or a kiss.

Title: [Spanish] - Aquiles o El guerrillero y el asesino Author: Carlos Fuentes Narrator: Noé Velázquez Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 10 minutes Release date: November 25, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Audaz, carismático, valeroso, dueño de una gran inteligencia, el guerrillero Carlos Pizarro y su historia son recreados en ésta, la última novela de Carlos Fuentes. Aquiles o El guerrillero y el asesino, la novela inédita de Carlos Fuentes, es un relato personal, fascinante y revelador sobre un episodio controvertido de la historia contemporánea de Colombia. Edición de Julio Ortega. Basándose en la biografía de Carlos Pizarro, uno de los jefes del movimiento guerrillero M-19, el autor dio forma en esta novela a un personaje carismático, lleno de luces y de sombras. Un Aquiles que, como los protagonistas de los poemas homéricos, se siente llamado a pasar a la acción y acaba enfrentándose a un destino inexorable que le esperaba paciente. Más allá de los datos conocidos, entre el inevitable narcotráfico, una guerrilla que para negociar la paz debe seguir disparando, la ausencia de proyecto nacional y la indomable voluntad de luchar, en esta obra póstuma de Carlos Fuentes los lectores conocerán tanto a un personaje con rasgos épicos como a una persona compleja, vulnerable, plena de amor y de esperanza. Del prólogo de Julio Ortega para la obra: 'Para Fuentes la novela era el género que podía asumir la historia no sólo como lección verosímil sino como proyección verdadera'. Sobre la publicación de esta obra póstuma: 'Carlos Fuentes no quiso entregar el manuscrito a sus editores mientras el conflicto armado más antiguo de América Latina no llegara a su fin. La publicación de Aquiles coincide con la que parece ser la última negociación entre la guerrilla y el gobierno colombiano: la hora de la verdad, el fin de las cuentas pendientes, el comienzo de la paz. Este es el mejor momento para leer la novela póstuma de Carlos Fuentes' -Silvia Lemus- Otros autores han opinado: 'En alguna parte se pregunta Fuentes si tiene derecho como mexicano a hablar de Colombia, a cantar la cólera de un Aquiles colombiano. Es una pregunta curiosa, viniendo de alguien que ya se ha apropiado de todo el territorio de la cultura hispánica, de la frontera norteamericana, de la vida dentro de un vientre. La obra de Fuentes le ha dejado a mi generación ese legado: el derecho inalienable que tiene el novelista latinoamericano de apropiarse del mundo entero en la ficción; o mejor, la obligación que tiene de irrespetar las fronteras' -Juan Gabriel Vásquez, Nexos- 'Su obra es un testimonio elocuente de todos los grandes problemas políticos y realidades culturales de nuestro tiempo' -Mario Vargas Llosa- 'La obra novelística de Fuentes es una verdadera enciclopedia de la especie humana y en este sentido puede ser comparada con la de Balzac' -Juan Goytisolo- Carlos Fuentes Thu, 25 Nov 2021 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/557861 thebookvoice.com 4:10:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/557861]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: The Pope's Butcher: Based on the True Story of a Serial Killer in the Medieval Vatican Author: Joseph C. Gioconda Narrator: Matthew Weilding And Carole Carpenter Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 22 minutes Release date: November 3, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: A #1 Amazon best-seller one week after its release, The Pope's Butcher is not only a hair-raising work of suspense and espionage, but an astonishing account of religion and the occult in the Middle Ages. ★ Synopsis ★ Abandoned as a child and raised by the Church, young Sebastian works tirelessly in his pursuit of priesthood. But when a shadowy hooded figure serves him with a summons, his careful plans face a turning point. It appears his name has drawn the attention of the Inquisition and his attendance is commanded at once--for retribution, information, or something else, he does not know. Father Heinrich Institoris the Grand Inquisitor is lauded as a visionary man, driven by a burning desire to cleanse the world of Eve's original sin by eradicating witches. As Inquisition courts bloom across Europe, he vows to leave no stone unturned, no hovel unexamined, and no woman alive, in his search for justice. As the Inquisitor's violent mission unfolds, Sebastian embarks on a quest through dank crypts, crumbling abbeys, and the darkest depravities known to man. Torn between duty and love when he encounters the beautiful pagan Brigantia, he fights to uncover the truth: of his past abandonment, the power of the occult, and just how far he'll go to protect the Church he loves. A Church that is harboring deadly secrets. With an intriguing writing tone and a talent to create suspense and mystery from true events, Joseph C. Gioconda delivers a shocking story of serial murders within the Catholic Church. In writing his first novel, he has interviewed leading scholars in the U.S. and Europe and hired professional researchers to comb through newly discovered source material from Germany and Italy.

Title: Benevolence: A Novel Author: Julie Janson Narrator: Tamala Shelton, Katherine Littrell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 10 hours 26 minutes Release date: August 16, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “How good it is to hear a Darug voice speaking of Darug history.”—Kate Grenville, author of The Secret River, winner of the Commonwealth Prize Blending the mythical power of Téa Obreht and the epic scope of Min Jin Lee, a searing historical novel that tells a story of colonization, survival, and resistance in a way never done before—a beautiful, brilliant, and brutal reimagining of the first contact between Indigenous people and white British settlers and the far-reaching consequences for one Aboriginal girl coming of age in an unsteady and dangerous world. For all known time, Muraging’s people, the Darug, have lived on this land between the river and the sea. But change comes swiftly in the early years of the nineteenth century when White settlers begin to arrive, laying claim to the continent, long inhabited by Aboriginal tribes like Muraging’s, for the British empire.  At ten years old, Muraging is given over to the Parramatta Native School by her father, where the missionaries call her Mary James, force her to abandon her culture and language, and teach her subjects they believe will save her soul: English, Christianity, and housework. Six years later, seeking a brighter future, Muraging flees the school, embarking on a journey of discovery and a search for a safe place in an unfamiliar and unsteady new world—an odyssey far more winding and treacherous than she ever dreamed.  Spanning two decades, from 1816-1835, and set around the Hawkesbury River area, the home of the Darug people in Parramatta and Sydney, Benevolence sheds light on the heartbreaking violence and erasure of colonization, as well as remarkable survival and resistance—a vivid and compelling portrait of the  Aboriginal Australians whose way of life is forever altered.  Award-winning Australian writer Julie Janson’s draws on historical events to recreate this pivotal time—things that may have happened to her own ancestors—giving voice to an Aboriginal experience of early-settlement in Australia.

Title: Dr. B.: A Novel Author: Daniel Birnbaum Narrator: John Lee Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 57 minutes Release date: May 24, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: The former director of the Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm makes his literary debut with this dramatic and riveting novel of book publishing, émigrés, spies, and diplomats in World War II Sweden based on his grandfather’s life. In 1933, after Hitler and the Nazi Party consolidated power in Germany, Immanuel Birnbaum, a German Jewish journalist based in Warsaw, is forbidden from writing for newspapers in his homeland. Six years later, just months before the German invasion of Poland that ignites World War II, Immanuel escapes to Sweden with his wife and two young sons. Living as a refugee in Stockholm, Immanuel continues to write, contributing articles to a liberal Swiss newspaper in Basel under the name Dr. B. He also begins working as an editor for the legendary German publisher S. Fischer Verlag. Gottfried Bermann Fischer had established an office in Stockholm to evade German censorship, publishing celebrated German writers such as Thomas Mann and Stefan Zweig. Immanuel also becomes entangled with British intelligence agents who produce and distribute anti-Nazi propaganda in Stockholm. On orders from Winston Churchill, the Allied spies plan several acts of sabotage. But when the Swedish postal service picks up a letter written in invisible ink, the plotters are exposed. The letter, long a mystery in military history accounts, was in fact written by Dr. B. But why would a Jew living in exile and targeted for death by the Nazis have wanted to tip them off?  Daniel Birnbaum’s novel will intrigue readers with its fascinating portrayal of the astonishing connections and often mysterious players illuminated by his grandfather’s remarkable wartime life.

Desde su ventana en el gueto amurallado de Frankfurt, la joven Gútale registra en su diario la cotidianidad en la Judengasse, o «calle de los judíos», así como el arrebato de su primer amor por el joven Meir Amschel Rothschild. Para Meir es claro que ha encontrado a la mujer ideal, pero antes de ganar su mano deberá enfrentar la férrea oposición del padre de ella, valerse de su intuición en los negocios y aprovechar la pasión de la nobleza europea por el comercio de monedas antiguas para sentar así las bases del imperio financiero que lleva su nombre.

Title: [Spanish] - Un caballero en Moscú Author: Amor Towles Narrator: Guillermo Romero Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 42 minutes Release date: December 9, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 3.75 of Total 4 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 2 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Escrita con suma elegancia y cálido sentido del humor, esta novela excepcional nos habla de nuestra inagotable capacidad para hacer frente a los infortunios de la existencia. Condenado a muerte por los bolcheviques en 1922, el conde Aleksandr Ilich Rostov elude su trágico final por un inusitado giro del destino. Gracias a un poema subversivo escrito diez años antes, el comité revolucionario conmuta la pena máxima por un arresto domiciliario inaudito: el aristócrata deberá pasar el resto de sus días en el hotel Metropol, microcosmos de la sociedad rusa y conspicuo exponente del lujo y la decadencia que el nuevo régimen se ha propuesto erradicar. En esta curiosa historia se basa la segunda novela de Amor Towles, que después de recibir innumerables elogios por Normas de cortesía, su ópera prima, se consolida como uno de los escritores norteamericanos más interesantes del momento. Erudito, refinado y caballeroso, Rostov es un cliente asiduo del legendario Metropol, situado a poca distancia del Kremlin y el Bolshói. Sin profesión conocida pese a estar ya en la treintena, se ha dedicado con auténtica pasión a los placeres de la lectura y de la buena mesa. Ahora, en esta nueva y forzada tesitura, irá construyendo una apariencia de normalidad a través de los lazos afectivos con algunos de los variopintos personajes del hotel, lo que le permitirá descubrir los jugosos secretos que guardan sus aposentos. Así, a lo largo de más de tres décadas, el conde verá pasar la vida confinado tras los inmensos ventanales del Metropol mientras en el exterior se desarrolla uno de los períodos más turbulentos del país. Además de mantenerse durante casi cincuenta semanas en las principales listas de éxitos de Estados Unidos y de superar el millón de ejemplares vendidos, Un caballero en Moscú ha obtenido numerosos premios, entre los que destacan el del Libro del Año según The Times y The Sunday Times. La crítica ha dicho... «Siempre es buen momento para leer Un caballero en Moscú, una novela magnífica, pero quizá ahora, precisamente ahora, es interesante leer una novela sobre un hombre que sufre arresto domiciliario durante décadas. Su vida se ve reducida a un único espacio para siempre. La vida del conde Aleksandr Ilich Rostov en el hotel Metropol es apasionante. La decadencia del hotel con el paso de los años es paralela a la del régimen que le condenó a su injusto arresto. Contarte cualquier otra cosa sobre esta novela es estropearla. Es de esas novelas para hablar de ellas durante horas, pero solo cuando todos la hemos leído. Házte un favor y léela. Y luego ya charlamos largo y tendido.» Esquire «Tiene todo lo que debería tener una novela: es ingeniosa, interesante, poética y generosa. Un auténtico placer.» The Mail on Sunday «Una obra muy seductora, plena de magia, inteligencia y perspicacia.» The Sunday Times «Fascinante. Preciosa. Enjundiosa. Towles es un verdadero maestro.» The New York Times Book Review «Una novela excelente en todos los sentidos que se desarrolla a lo largo de casi cuatro décadas. Un goce ininterrumpido, rebosante de encanto, sabiduría personal y agudeza. Un libro donde las crueldades de la época no excluyen el valor de las relaciones humanas primordiales y de la impronta que éstas dejan en nosotros: un resumen magistral de la historia de la Rusia moderna.» Kirkus Review Amor Towles Thu, 09 Dec 2021 02:50:08 GMT https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/557734 thebookvoice.com 17:42:00 no Listen to full audiobooks for free on thebookvoice.com Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/557734]]> to listen full audiobooks.

Title: Unmade Movies: Alexander MacKendrick's Mary Queen of Scots: A BBC Radio 4 adaptation of the unproduced screenplay Series: #1 of Unmade Movies Author: Jay Presson Allen, Alexander Mackendrick Narrator: Ellie Bamber, Glenda Jackson, Full Cast Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 27 minutes Release date: February 10, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Alexander Mackendrick's unproduced screenplay about the most turbulent year of Mary Stuart's life 'Rain-drenched spectacular... [Glenda] Jackson brings authority and asperity, but so much more' New Statesman The annals of movie history are full of lost treasures - spectacular scripts from world-renowned writers that could have been classics, had they only been made. Now, for the first time, some of these forgotten gems have been brought to life, fully realised as vivid, cinematic radio productions. Scripted by major 20th Century writers, including Harold Pinter, Arthur Miller, Alfred Hitchcock and Dennis Potter, they star a host of A-list actors and feature richly evocative, atmospheric soundtracks. One of seven 'unmade movies' available on audio, Mary Queen of Scots follows one tumultuous year in the life of the 16th Century monarch. It's 1566, and two clans are at war. Two religions - Catholic and Protestant - are in conflict. And two countries - England and Scotland - are about to collide. At the centre of this turmoil is 23-year-old Queen Mary: pregnant, isolated and vulnerable. Caught in a web of treachery, betrayal and murder, she must use her steely intelligence and every skill at her disposal to maintain her rightful position on the throne... The acclaimed director of Whisky Galore! and The Ladykillers, Alexander Mackendrick spent nearly two decades struggling to adapt Mary Stuart's story for the silver screen, before retiring from filmmaking in 1969. Almost 50 years later, his cherished project was finally revived, directed by 'BAFTA Breakthrough Brit' Hope Dickson Leach and produced by Sandy Lieberson, Mackendrick's intended producer for the film.

Title: Unmade Movies: Alexander MacKendrick's Mary Queen of Scots: A BBC Radio 4 adaptation of the unproduced screenplay Series: #1 of Unmade Movies Author: Jay Presson Allen, Alexander Mackendrick Narrator: Ellie Bamber, Glenda Jackson, Full Cast Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 27 minutes Release date: February 10, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Alexander Mackendrick's unproduced screenplay about the most turbulent year of Mary Stuart's life 'Rain-drenched spectacular... [Glenda] Jackson brings authority and asperity, but so much more' New Statesman The annals of movie history are full of lost treasures - spectacular scripts from world-renowned writers that could have been classics, had they only been made. Now, for the first time, some of these forgotten gems have been brought to life, fully realised as vivid, cinematic radio productions. Scripted by major 20th Century writers, including Harold Pinter, Arthur Miller, Alfred Hitchcock and Dennis Potter, they star a host of A-list actors and feature richly evocative, atmospheric soundtracks. One of seven 'unmade movies' available on audio, Mary Queen of Scots follows one tumultuous year in the life of the 16th Century monarch. It's 1566, and two clans are at war. Two religions - Catholic and Protestant - are in conflict. And two countries - England and Scotland - are about to collide. At the centre of this turmoil is 23-year-old Queen Mary: pregnant, isolated and vulnerable. Caught in a web of treachery, betrayal and murder, she must use her steely intelligence and every skill at her disposal to maintain her rightful position on the throne... The acclaimed director of Whisky Galore! and The Ladykillers, Alexander Mackendrick spent nearly two decades struggling to adapt Mary Stuart's story for the silver screen, before retiring from filmmaking in 1969. Almost 50 years later, his cherished project was finally revived, directed by 'BAFTA Breakthrough Brit' Hope Dickson Leach and produced by Sandy Lieberson, Mackendrick's intended producer for the film.

Entre fango, lluvia y sangre, el Destino se abre paso en una noche en que la muerte no da tregua. La noche del 30 de junio de 1520 tuvo lugar en las afueras de Tenochtitlán el mayor desastre sufrido por las huestes de Hernán Cortés durante la conquista de México. En su retirada, los soldados españoles, castigados por la lluvia, avanzando por los puentes y entre el barro, debieron elegir entre el botín o la vida; abandonar el lastre de oro y riquezas que tantos peligros, sudor y sangre había costado era su única posibilidad de escapar. Sin embargo, no es fácil dejar atrás la esperanza de un futuro mejor. En Ojos azules, peleando por su vida, un soldado de mirada añil sueña con lo sucedido y por suceder, mientras combate y carga con el talego de oro en el que pesa todo su porvenir.

As she follows the case of Meena—a Hindu woman attacked by members of her own village and her own family for marrying a Muslim man—Smita comes face to face with a society where tradition carries more weight than one’s own heart, and a story that threatens to unearth the painful secrets of Smita’s own past. While Meena’s fate hangs in the balance, Smita tries in every way she can to right the scales. She also finds herself increasingly drawn to Mohan, an Indian man she meets while on assignment. But the dual love stories of Honor are as different as the cultures of Meena and Smita themselves: Smita realizes she has the freedom to enter into a casual affair, knowing she can decide later how much it means to her. In this tender and evocative novel about love, hope, familial devotion, betrayal, and sacrifice, Thrity Umrigar shows us two courageous women trying to navigate how to be true to their homelands and themselves at the same time.

Title: Moth: A Novel Author: Melody Razak Narrator: Soneela Nankani Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 12 hours 19 minutes Release date: August 9, 2022 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “Both a heartbreaking and heart-warming story, Melody Razak’s debut transports the reader into the home of a Brahmin family in 1940s Delhi. . . . The character portrayal is so intricate that as the plot twists and turns, you'll truly care what happens to them.”—The Independent (UK) A Millions Most Anticipated Book of 2022  • An Oprah Daily Most Anticipated Historical Fiction Novel of 2022  • A Betches Summer Pick Melody Razak makes her literary debut with this internationally-acclaimed saga of one Indian family’s trials through the tumultuous partition—the 1947 split of Pakistan from India—exploring its impact on women, what it means to be “othered” in one’s own society, and the redemptive power of family. Delhi, 1946. Fourteen-year-old Alma is soon to be married despite her parents’ fear that she is far too young. But times are perilous in India, where the country’s long-awaited independence from the British empire heralds a new era of hope—and danger. In its wake, political unrest ripples across the subcontinent, marked by violent confrontations between Hindus and Muslims. The conflict threatens to unravel the rich tapestry of Delhi—a city where different cultures, religions, and traditions have co-existed for centuries. The solution is partition, which will create a new, wholly Muslim, sovereign nation—Pakistan—carved from India’s northwestern shoulder. Given the uncertain times, Alma’s parents, intellectuals who teach at the local university, pray that marriage will provide Alma with stability and safety. Alma is precocious and headstrong, and her excitement over the wedding rivals only her joy in spinning wild stories about evil spirits for her younger sister Roop. But when Alma’s grandmother—a woman determined to protect the family’s honor no matter the cost—interferes with the engagement, her meddling sets off a chain of events that will wrench the family apart, forcing its members to find new and increasingly desperate ways to survive in the wake of partition. Set during the most tumultuous years in modern Indian history, Melody Razak recreates the painful turmoil of a rupturing nation and its reverberations across the fates of a single family. Powerfully evocative and atmospheric, Moth is a testament to survival and a celebration of the beauty and resilience of the human spirit.  Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.

Title: [German] - Der Morgen einer neuen Zeit - Kingsbridge - Roman, Band 4 (Ungekürzt) Author: Ken Follett Narrator: Tobias Kluckert Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 29 hours 2 minutes Release date: October 21, 2021 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: Ein Epos um Gut und Böse, Liebe und Hass - die Vorgeschichte zu Ken Folletts Weltbestseller 'Die Säulen der Erde' England im Jahr 997. Im Morgengrauen wartet der junge Bootsbauer Edgar auf seine Geliebte. Deshalb ist er der Erste, der die Gefahr am Horizont entdeckt: Drachenboote. Jeder weiß: Die Wikinger bringen Tod und Verderben über Land und Leute. Edgar versucht alles, um die Bürger von Combe zu warnen. Doch er kommt zu spät. Die Stadt wird beinahe völlig zerstört. Viele Menschen sterben, auch Edgars Familie bleibt nicht verschont. Die Werft der Bootsbauer brennt nieder. Edgar bleibt nur ein Ausweg: ein verlassener Bauernhof in einem Weiler fern der Küste. Während Edgar ums Überleben kämpft, streiten andere um Reichtum und Macht in England. Unter ihnen: der gleichermaßen ehrgeizige wie skrupellose Bischof Wynstan, der idealistische Mönch Aldred und Ragna, die Tochter eines normannischen Grafen ... Edgar, Ragna, Wynstan, Aldred - ihre Schicksale sind untrennbar miteinander und mit ihrer Zeit verbunden. Ihr Land, das England der Angelsachsen, ist eine Gesellschaft voller Gewalt. Eine Gesellschaft, in der selbst der König es schwer hat, Recht und Gerechtigkeit durchzusetzen. Gemeinsam mit Edgar, Ragna, Wynstan und Aldred erleben wir den Übergang von dunklen Zeiten ins englische Mittelalter - und den Aufstieg eines unbedeutenden Weilers zum Ort Kingsbridge, den wir seit 'Die Säulen der Erde' kennen und lieben.
