    Though Waters Roar, Hörbuch, Digital, 533min
    Thank goodness you're such a plain child. You'll have to rely on your wits." So went the words of Grandma Bebe. And for all of my growing-up years, I scoffed at the beauty of my sister and what I saw as her meaningless existence. "But my wits hadn't served me well in this instance, for here I was, in jail. And while I could have seen it as carrying on the family tradition (Grandma Bebe landed in jail for her support of Prohibition), the truth is, my reasons for being here would probably break her heart. "So how did I end up becoming a criminal? I've been pondering that question all night. Perhaps the best way to search for an answer is to start at the very beginning." Language: English.

    In Praise of Women's Bodies , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 16min
    It's a truism, for instance, that a few clothes are more shocking than none. But for women especially, bras, panties, bathing suits, and other stereotypical gear are visual reminders of a commercial, idealized feminine image that our real and diverse female bodies can't possibly fit. Without those visual references, however, each individual woman's body can be accepted on its own terms. We stop being comparatives. We begin to be unique. After spending a few days at a spa in the company of 90 or so women, Gloria Steinem wrote In Praise of Women's Bodies, a short but powerful essay that's part ode and part treatise and fully in awe of the female form, in all its unique variety. In Praise of Women's Bodies was originally published in Ms., April 1982. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Marianne Fraulo.

They agree to regroup one week before the interference is due to take place - but one team member seems to be taking an unofficial detour. An opportunity to prevent the incident altogether arises four years before the rendezvous. But to revisit this instance would be seen as a betrayal to many of the timekeepers and set them at war with one another.

    The Vicar of Wakefield , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 418min
    From the instance of its first publication, in 1766, Oliver Goldsmith's novel of Christian piety and endurance has stood the test of time. The story is told in the first person by a vicar, Dr. Primrose, who, along with his wife and six children, lives a rural idyllic life in a country parish. It is a very sophisticated work which contrasts the forces that separate religious principal from the actual experiences of life. It is also a delightful, sentimental work whose amusing characters are both wise and foolish, brave and cowardly, rich and poor, as well as honest and knavish. In other words, this is a work of timeless beauty and attraction. Listen as 18th-century English country life unfolds before you in a tale of morals and materialism. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    The Matter of the Duct Tape Tuxedo: And Other Impossible Crime Short Stories (Captain Heinz Noonan, the "Bearded Holmes", Book 1) , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 227min
    Captain Heinz Noonan, master of the impossible crime, is called upon to solve the most puzzling of riddles. If it's odd, you call Noonan. Why, for instance, would someone steal 200 garden gnomes and then leave them in a pattern across a city? Better yet, how can air cargo increase in weight as it flies and how can a century old Tong high-binder warrior appear in a locked warehouse and then disappear in a cloud of smoke? And why would anyone want to steal anything from a garbage dump? See if you can solve these unusual mysteries faster than the “bearded Holmes” of the Sandersonville police department. Oh, then there is the theft of 8,000 gallons of water, a reappearing coelacanth, the theft of some Komodo dragon trousers and, of course, a missing duct tape tuxedo. The perfect who dun what for your bookshelf and enjoyment. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Henry Marshall. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/168537/bk_acx0_168537_sample.mp3.

    Witchcraft: A Beginner's Guide to Wiccan Ways , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 64min
    This book contains information to help you begin a Wiccan life. It contains pertinent information on the basic concepts, principles, and practices of Wicca as well as information about witches. Wicca is a term used to represent witchcraft. It is derived from the word wicce, an Anglo-Saxon term that means "to have wisdom to bend or manipulate". Originally Wicca implied a male witch while wicce implied a female witch. However, as the years have passed, Wicca has become accepted as a term representing both males and females who can bend or manipulate. Wicca is commonly used to replace the term witchcraft, which is defined in various ways. For instance, many people in the past referred to witchcraft as an individual's ability to harness supernatural powers specifically for the practice of black magic. As such, witchcraft was viewed in the same manner as magic and sorcery. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Peter L. Delloro.
