    Play It as It Lays
    A ruthless dissection of American life in the late 1960s, Joan Didion's Play It as It Lays captures the mood of an entire generation, the ennui of contemporary society reflected in spare prose that blisters and haunts the reader. Set in a place beyond good and evil---literally in Hollywood, Las Vegas, and the barren wastes of the Mojave Desert, but figuratively in the landscape of an arid soul---it remains more than three decades after its original publication a profoundly disturbing novel, riveting in its exploration of a woman and a society in crisis and stunning in the still-startling intensity of its prose.

    Living in Sin: Living In, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 430min, (USK 18)
    Her temptation...his salvation. At 20, Lily Andrews has already lived a lifetime. Her battle with leukemia put her three years behind her ballet career, and now that the grueling treatment is behind her, she's eager to put her dancing shoes back on - literally and figuratively. One man has been her personal light at the end of her tunnel, the one man she's sure will help her rekindle her passion for life. Kahu Winter. And she'll let nothing stand in the way of having him - not even Kahu himself. When Kahu catches Lily sneaking into his club, the desire in her eyes tells him it's more than a delayed act of youthful rebellion. Her lively spirit calls to him, but Kahu is too cynical, too jaded, too broken for a sweet, young thing like her. But Lily won't take no for an answer, so he'll make her a deal: She's got one month to seduce him, and after that he's moving on - figuratively and literally. There's just one thing he forgot to keep out of her reach: his heart.... Warning: contains a hot older man in need of some anticynicism pills, a snarky younger woman who's going to get past his defenses and make him beg, more forbidden lust, and naked ballet dancing.
