    She can be someone's wife or a lady small in stature. In this tale of lust, she's both. Tracy is not quite five feet tall and she's married to a real nice guy. The 40-year-old honey qualifies on both counts. Sweet Tracy also fits into another select group. She gave her adoptive father a real big hard-on. Getting stiff from younger well-built women, small or otherwise, makes this man feel younger than his 60 years. It tells him his mind isn't dead yet. It's very capable of still having lurid thoughts. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Rod O'Steele. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/073650/bk_acx0_073650_sample.mp3.

    Anne is a professor of cognitive science, teaching at a venerable British university in the 1980s. In the spring, her course on the philosophy and history of psychology finds strange and often hilarious echoes in her own life. She is obsessed with solving two mysteries. One is profound and has exercised many philosophers since Descartes: How can she tell when she is dreaming? The second is scandalous: Who could have left the lurid descriptions of an extramarital affair on her laptop? As Anne muddles distractedly through the term, she tries to apply what she has learned in her scholarship about evidence. In the process, human reasoning is revealed to be riddled with pitfalls.  ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jill de Villiers.
