Under the Looking Glass , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 228min
Maura Reyes survived an almost unbearable trauma - the loss of her family in a home invasion. Two years later, she's still consumed by grief and acute insomnia, hiding inside her elegant, empty Los Angeles home. No amount of therapy or medication can restore what Maura lost. When her therapist suggests a change of scenery, Maura reluctantly agrees to go on a cruise. But once aboard the luxury liner, she finds herself in a bizarre and terrifying wonderland. On the strange ship Cockaigne, Maura discovers an artist's homage to Alice in Wonderland, complete with Dormouse, Mad Hatter, Tweedledum and Tweedledee. All that's missing is Alice herself - and Maura, a pretty blond widow, suits the artist's vision perfectly. Soon, Maura finds herself sliding between past and present, reliving that deadly night in bizarre and contradictory ways. Desperate for sleep, she first questions her memory, then her sanity. Is someone trying to drive her insane? Or is the truth darker and more twisted than she can possibly imagine? A Red Adept Select for outstanding book in its genre. ungekürzt. Language: English.

True Stories & Other Essays , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 768min
An irresistible collection of favorite writings from an author celebrated for his bravura style and sheer unpredictability. Francis Spufford’s welcome first volume of collected essays gathers an array of his compelling writings from the 1990s to the present. He makes use of a variety of encounters with particular places, writers, or books to address deeper questions relating to the complicated relationship between storytelling and truth-telling. How must a nonfiction writer imagine facts, vivifying them to bring them to life? How must a novelist create a dependable world of story, within which facts are, in fact, imaginary? And how does a religious faith felt strongly to be true, but not provably so, draw on both kinds of writerly imagination? Ranging freely across topics as diverse as the medieval legends of Cockaigne, the Christian apologetics of C. S. Lewis, and the tomb of Ayatollah Khomeini, Spufford provides both fresh observations and thought-provoking insights. No less does he inspire an irresistible urge to play this audiobook and listen on. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Francis Spufford.

Sinfonie 1/Cockaigne Overture
Vasily Petrenko (Dir) // Elgar's First Symphony was a personal triumph for the composer, who said: "I hold that the symphony without a programme is the highest development of art." Wonderfully scored, opulent and highly personal, it was the culmination of many years of creative struggle with the symphonic form. "... the greatest symphony of modern times, by the greatest modern composer", said conductor Hans Richter.- Shop: odax
