    John Donne lived myriad lives. Sometime religious outsider and social disaster, sometime celebrity preacher and establishment darling, John Donne was incapable of being just one thing. He was a scholar of law, a sea adventurer, an MP, a priest, the Dean of St Paul's Cathedral - and perhaps the greatest love poet in the history of the English language. He converted from Catholicism to Protestantism, was imprisoned for marrying a high-born girl without her father's consent, struggled to feed a family of ten children and was often ill and in pain. He was a man who suffered from black surges of sadness, yet expressed in his verse electric joy and love. *From a standout scholar, a biography of John Donne: the poet of love, sex, and death. In Super-Infinite, Katherine Rundell embarks on a fleet-footed 'act of evangelism', showing us the many sides of Donne's extraordinary life, his obsessions, his blazing words, and his tempestuous Elizabeth times - unveiling Donne as the most remarkable mind and as a lesson in living.

    Haunted by terrifying nightmares and a mysterious prophecy, a young man embarks on a 3,000-mile trek through the African bush. From Victoria Falls at night during a lunar rainbow to the great African Savannah stampeding with wildebeest to the evocative Serengeti with Mt. Kilimanjaro rising up with the dawn, The Light Behind Blue Circles captures some of Africa's most iconic scenery. This is a ghost story - it's about that rumble in your stomach when adrenaline surges. It's that feeling you get when you stand in the dark and hear an animal growling from only feet away or sense there's someone else in a gloomy room. Although this fictional story has characters that are Maasai, it is not about their culture as much as a web that several Maasai and a seer get drawn into, along with several travelers. Start listening, and you'll never look at Africa the same again. ungekürzt.

    Everyone knows that the process of ageing is apparent externally, for example in wrinkles, thin skin and age lines; inevitably, it also affects us internally, leaving the body in a progressively fragile state. But what can we do to slow down this process? In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Nirdosh shows that ageing can be controlled and even reversed using her unique face and body programme, which surges anti-ageing hormones back into you and puts an out-of-control body back in control of itself. As part of her unique regime, Dr. Nirdosh has devised specialised yet simple ways of controlling the ageing process, including easy exercise techniques, a simple-to-follow diet, advice on which supplements to take and effective skin treatments. Each element of the programme stimulates the production of anti-ageing hormones and boosts skin cell immunity. This dual effect slows the ageing process and recaptures youth inside and out, which will give you the ultimate nonsurgical face and body lifts! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lynsey Frost.
