    Silas Marner: The Weaver of Raveloe (1861) is the third novel by George Eliot. Set in the early years of the 19th century, it seems at first to be only a simple story about the weaver Silas Marner. However, the complex plot and wide cast of characters soon reveal its scope and realism. The narrative deals with a range of issues, from community to industrialization and religion. Silas’ life is changed by Eppie, the little girl he adopts, and their fates are entwined with Godfrey Cass, son of the village squire. The novel’s striking symbolism and trenchant social criticism contribute to make this affectionate portrait of rural life an enduring classic. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Andrea Giordani.

    In the summer of 1931, a cruise ship sails for Bremerhaven, Germany. Among its many diverse passengers are a Spanish noblewoman, a drunken German lawyer, an American divorcee, a pair of Mexican Catholic priests, a number of Germans returning to their homeland from Mexico, and a corrupt, avaricious company of Spanish singers and dancers who scheme to defraud the other passengers of their money. In the mingling and meeting of these varied personalities on board the ship of fools, a drama of good and evil takes place, from which no one will emerge unchanged. Rich in incident, passion, and treachery, the novel’s themes of nationalism, cultural and ethnic pride, and basic human frailty are as relevant today as they were when the novel first appeared in 1945. ungekürzt.

    All you have to do to become somebody’s God is disappear. The speaker is Mayan Atassi, the wise and frighteningly vulnerable heroine who captivated readers of Mona Simpson’s Anywhere But Here and who now narrates the novel’s immensely powerful successor. Mayan’s god is her father, who left her when she was a child. Up until now she has worshiped him by waiting for him to come back. But at the age of 28 Mayan sets out to find him. Her quest is an epic, wrenching search that leads her across two continents to the high edge of madness. It leads the reader to a poignant understanding of the nature of love and lovelessness, fathers and fatherlessness, and of the loyalties that make us who we are - even when they threaten to destroy us. ungekürzt.

    Castle Richmond (1860) is a novel by Anthony Trollope. It is set in southwestern Ireland at beginning of the Irish famine. Castle Richmond is situated on the banks of the Blackwater River in County Cork. The plot features the competition of two Protestant cousins of English origin, Owen and Herbert Fitzgerald, for the hand of Clara Desmond, the noble but impoverished daughter of the widowed Countess of Desmond, providing the novel’s principal dramatic interest."Castle Richmond" was the first of several novels by Trollope in which bigamy played an important role. The Irish famine and efforts by authorities to mitigate its effects are the subject of many scenes and the object of abundant commentary throughout. The famine also occasions more explicit religious commentary than is typical in novels by Trollope. Language: English. Narrator: David Beed.

    Swann’s Way is the first and best-known part of Proust’s monumental work, Remembrance of Things Past. Often compared to a symphony, this complex masterpiece is ideally suited for audio. Listening lets you appreciate anew the incredible beauty of Proust’s language and the uniqueness of his style. The novel’s narrator, Marcel, finds the true meaning of experience in memories stimulated by some random object or event. He recalls his childhood, and eventually reconstructs the story of Monsieur Swann and his passion for Odette, a beautiful, but socially inferior woman. Marcel’s waking reverie gives rise to fascinating questions about the meaning of time. Swann’s Way, with its long passages of intricate introspection, becomes much more accessible and enjoyable with George Guidall’s lucid narration.—Includes an exclusive interview with Mary Ann Caws, Distinguished Professor of English, French, and Comparative Literature at CUNY. ungekürzt.

    Near some 35,000 years ago, a colony of aliens descends upon the Earth, striking an engagement with Paleolithic mankind.History unfolds through the eyes of Omegan, a watcher, who attempts to guide the "science-blinded" Technocracy from spiritual doom. Morphing from one epoch to the next, Omegan, a spirited Phoebian who lives through a succession of hosts, experiences life through others as ancient myths, biblical accounts, and much pre-dynastic history is corrupted by the presence of these species, and their manufactured servants, the Nephilim.By their scientific studies and interactions upon our planet they manage to skew the historical timeline, creating archaeological anomalies that to this day divide geologists and historians as to the actual course of the world’s events.This novel’s vivid rendering of Earth’s far distant past not only supports the claim of conspiracy theorists, but also will undoubtedly illuminate an epiphany within the imagination of any die-hard skeptic. ungekürzt.
