Something New Under the Sun

NEW YORK TIMES EDITORS' CHOICE • A novelist discovers the dark side of Hollywood and reckons with ambition, corruption, and connectedness in the age of environmental collapse and ecological awakening-a darkly unsettling near-future novel for readers of Don DeLillo and Ottessa Moshfegh ONE OF VULTURE'S BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR • ONE OF SUMMER'S BEST BOOKS: The Wall Street Journal • Time • Parade • LitHub • Vanity Fair • Vogue • Refinery29 • Esquire "A darkly satirical reflection of ecological reality."-Time "Genius."-Los Angeles Times "Wildly entertaining and beautifully written."-LitHub East Coast novelist Patrick Hamlin has come to Hollywood with simple goals in mind: overseeing the production of a film adaptation of one of his books, preventing starlet Cassidy Carter's disruptive behavior from derailing said production, and turning this last-ditch effort at career resuscitation into the sort of success that will dazzle his wife and daughter back home. But California is not as he imagined: Drought, wildfire, and corporate corruption are omnipresent, and the company behind a mysterious new brand of synthetic water seems to be at the root of it all. Patrick partners with Cassidy-after having been her reluctant chauffeur for weeks-and the two of them investigate the sun-scorched city's darker crevices, where they discover that catastrophe resembles order until the last possible second. In this often-witty and all-too-timely story, Alexandra Kleeman grapples with the corruption of our environment in the age of alternative facts. Something New Under the Sun is a meticulous and deeply felt accounting of our very human anxieties, liabilities, dependencies, and, ultimately, responsibility to truth.

The Mason List , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 617min

An epic love. An epic hate. An epic story that would last a lifetime. Today, 8:15 p.m. I hurt. I hurt so deeply, I felt the pain searing in my bones and jabbing like a hot poker into my heart. I knew nothing would make it better as the memories pulled from the crevices of my mind, detailing the bad and the ugly, filling my thoughts with regret as I slipped into the darkness... When I was eight, my mother was dying of cancer, my father lost his job, and the bank kicked us out of our house. I was forced to move to the strange town of Arlis, Texas where my father and I slept in our car in the hospital parking lot. Desperate and hopeless, we lived on fumes of our former life. Then one night, everything changed forever. A knock on the car window brought a family into my life that I only wanted to shut out. I hated charity and I hated the Masons. Well, except one. He made it impossible to hate him. Jess Mason had the biggest blue eyes and ornery smile of any boy I had ever seen. He was a ray of sunshine in my dark world. A boy full of adventure, dragging me across the meadow of Sprayberry Ranch; a beautiful Texas paradise full of horses and tree houses that got us into more trouble than anyone ever imagined. Jess was my everything as a kid, until we grew up and the rules changed. Instead of living happily ever after with a boy full of love...I destroyed it. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Sklars and Stripes , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 407min

Experience a new kind of comedic audio documentary from The Sklar Brothers in this Audible original. Randy and Jason Sklar have a knack for exploring what makes America’s cities unique and wonderful, whether it’s finding out who in San Diego serves the best burritos, why basketball is so popular among those in Bloomington, or why the people of Portland can't let go of their old airport carpeting. 2017 was a year in which everyone retreated to their bubbles – liberal, conservative, and cotton-candy scented. Everyone except Jason and Randy Sklar. They didn’t have a choice; if you’re a comedian, you get a tour date and you go to work. They traveled to red states and blue states, red cities in blue states, and blue cities in red states. What emerged throughout their travels was a real sense of what everyone was going through in a historically insane and twistedly-hilarious year. And Audible recorded their experiences, insights, and off-the-cuff jokes along the way. On the road, Randy and Jason searched for topics specific to each community they visited – then challenged themselves to see whether they could perform jokes about those topics that locals would find funny. Along with producer and fellow traveler Scott Rogowsky (HQ Trivia), they dug into the American psyche and explored its dark and quirky crevices both on stage and off. Follow their shenanigans in this docu-comedy which visits 10 different cities, each a new chapter and a new adventure. With an arsenal of jokes and a curious mind, the Sklars attempt to answer one burning question: as a nation, can Americans still laugh at themselves? Plus, as a special bonus in Chapter 12, all listeners receive a full album of the Sklars' stand-up from the tour: The Tour Tapes. This is not an audiobook. This is not your grandma’s travel program. This is Sklars and Stripes. THE TOUR San Diego Madison Portland Ka ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: The Sklar Brothers.

The State of Affairs: Rethinking Infidelity , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 717min

Iconic couples' therapist and best-selling author of Mating in Captivity Esther Perel returns with a groundbreaking and provocative look at infidelity, arguing for a more nuanced and less judgmental conversation about our transgressions. An affair: It can rob a couple of their relationship, their happiness, their very identity. And yet this extremely common human experience is so poorly understood. Adultery has existed since marriage was invented, and so, too, the prohibition against it - in fact it has a tenacity that marriage can only envy. So what are we to make of this time-honored taboo, universally forbidden yet universally practiced? For the past 10 years, master therapist Esther Perel has traveled the globe and worked with hundreds of couples who have been shattered by infidelity. In The State of Affairs she asks, why do we cheat? And why do happy people cheat? Why does infidelity hurt so much? And when we say infidelity, what exactly do we mean? Is an affair always the end of a marriage? Affairs, she writes, have a lot to teach us about relationships. They provide unusual insight into our personal and cultural attitudes about love, lust, and commitment. Betrayal hurts, but it can be healed. An affair can even be the doorway to a new marriage - with the same person. With the right approach, Perel argues, couples can grow and learn from these tumultuous experiences, together or apart. Fiercely intelligent, The State of Affairs provides a daring framework for understanding the intricacies of love and desire. As Perel writes, "Love is messy; infidelity more so. But it is also a window, like no other, into the crevices of the human heart." After listening to Esther read The State of Affairs, continue on as she opens the door to her office and invites you to listen in on actual couple sessions. These are unscripted conversations of real, anonymous couples grappling with infidelity fr ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Esther Perel.

Relive the Broken Road (Shadows of Mercy, #1) (eBook, ePUB)

Relive the Broken Road by Beulah Kleinveldt is a powerfully intimate and inspirational memoir depicting pages from the life of Jarek and Katy Kabula. Jarek's struggles with ghosts of the past and obsessive love drives katy to seek escapasm inside a web of adultery. A "fix" that takes her on a journey she never thought she would travel; into despair, shame and ruin. A dark and tragic path that leads her into the arms of the real God of love and mercy. ***This book is one of the most engaging and impactful reads I've encountered in a long while. I believe it is truly deserving of exposure to a wider audience. By evincing an astounding measure of moral courage, whilst employing the power of vulnerability, Beulah Kleinveldt inspires us all to refocus on what truly matters in Christ's Kingdom, namely, the Glory of the Cross, by which He calls us - as His image bearers in this world - to steward His unfailing love and its infinite reserves of tender mercies and gentle grace.Fred May - Pastoral and Community Development Practitioner *****************This is the kind of writing that causes me to want to read slowly and think. It is thought provoking reading. Relive the Broken Road challenges one to look more deeply into the crevices of our inner self. One is challenged to explore the shallowness of our inability to give grace and mercy and to reflect the heart of God with whom we claim to have a meaningful relationship. It leaves one with the desire to be real about one's own journey and search for the God who is full of mercy so that we too can find wholeness".Margie Gustafson, Lecturer/Faculty Emeritus, Cornerstone Institute and Author of A Journey of Hope Through Change. ************************** "Beulah Kleinveldt probes the place where Christians sometimes land; though they try to hide it, that amid ministry, marriage, and raising a family we can find ourselves, in her words, "Thirsty for something, but not quite sure what." If you deem yourself an utter failure, a hopeless case, Relive the Broken Road is fthe book or you. Beulah's story will lead you once again ( or maybe for the first time) into the arms of a loving and merciful Savior and thus allow you to find your place and purpose in God's Kingdom (again)".Lyndell Hetrick Holtz - Author of Confessions of an Adulterous Christian Woman and Kisses of Adultery
