Title: Cancer, You Picked The Wrong Girl: A True Story Author: Shormistha Mukherjee Narrator: Pallavi Bharti Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 7 minutes Release date: December 31, 2021 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Memoirs Publisher's Summary: There's nothing funny about cancer. But humour can help take away some of its terrible power. 'Riveting. funny-sad. And so real. I have a friend-crush on Shormishtha now!' Anuja Chauhan 'Cancer picked the wrong girl, but you picked the right book. I laughed through tears and till I teared up.' Aditi Mittal, stand-up comedian, writer 'A book for anyone who asks themselves what they'd do if life changed overnight.' Nisha Susan, author of The Women Who Forgot to Invent Facebook and Other Stories In Cancer, You Picked the Wrong Girl, Shormistha Mukherjee offers a no-holds-barred account of her journey navigating a breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. Through getting a Brazilian wax and deliberating the pros and cons of breast reconstruction to finding a 'setting' in the chemo ward, it's laughter that helped keep her fears in check. It isn't all 'Cancer Lite', though. Mukherjee packs some emotional sucker-punches and hard truths in this book, making it a small piece of comfort for anyone touched by cancer.

Title: I Live a Life Like Yours: A Memoir Author: Jan Grue Narrator: Graham Halstead Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 6 minutes Release date: December 22, 2021 Genres: Memoirs Publisher's Summary: 'Superb... up-ends received wisdom about disability… Humbling, dark, bright, defiant, generous… revolutionary' David Mitchell, author of Cloud Atlas A profoundly beautiful memoir about disability, difference, and living as a vulnerable body Jan Grue had just become a father when he inherited a stack of his childhood medical records. Following a diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy at the age of three, the raft of doctors' notes, clinical descriptions and case histories defined his body as defective and his future as bleak and limited. They conjured a childhood nothing like the one he remembered, that failed to anticipate the life he lived now. I Live a Life Like Yours is Grue's beautiful, groundbreaking search for a literary language that could better tell his story. Writing with clear-eyed wisdom and bracing frankness, Grue folds insights from art, film and literature into an expansive account of who he was expected to be, and who he became. If it is a story of frustration with negligent institutions and the pain of stigma, it is also a story of the potential of acceptance and the gift of family. Unflinching, yet always compassionate, I Live a Life Like Yours is a fierce and tender reckoning with what it means to live as a vulnerable body.

Title: [Spanish] - Ahora imagino cosas Author: Julián Herbert Narrator: Carlos Pimienta Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 42 minutes Release date: December 16, 2021 Genres: Memoirs Publisher's Summary:

«¿Herbert escribe memorias? ¿Ensayos? ¿Novelas? Sus libros son mash-ups de recuerdos, investigación y ornamentación ficcional, marcados por una cálida falta de respeto por los géneros -como es la vida.» The New York Times

Si, como dijo Alfonso Reyes, el ensayo es el centauro de los géneros, la crónica es un mestizo más exótico o salvaje: el grifo de la literatura. Este libro es una jaula sin barrotes donde merodean algunas de esas criaturas: la marchita eternidad de Acapulco y la vocación de Mazatlán como food court del alma; una temporada de rockstar en el desierto y un recuerdo del Mundial de Alemania 2006 robado por el autor a un examante de su novia; un hotel en Shanghái donde toca la banda de jazz más antigua del mundo y la visita de la reina de Inglaterra al puerto de La Paz, Baja California Sur; el brutal asesinato de una adolescente chilena en la región del Maule y un retrato a mano alzada del Fiscal de Hierro, persecutor de guerrilleros suicidas, homeópatas marxistas y gavillas narcomatriarcales que protagonizó la lucha contra la delincuencia organizada en los años setenta en Nuevo Laredo. Las ocho narraciones de este libro realizan una de las suertes mayores de la literatura: ir de lo íntimo a lo general, o viceversa. También nos recuerdan que no hay promesas sin resaca.

Title: How to Examine a Wolverine: More Tales from the Accidental Veterinarian Author: Philipp Schott Narrator: Geet Arora Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 6 minutes Release date: December 15, 2021 Genres: Memoirs Publisher's Summary: Crammed with useful info, funny recollections, heartfelt anecdotes, and lots of cute furry creatures, a collection for all animal lovers! This collection of over 60 stories and essays, drawn from Dr. Schott's 30 years in small animal practice, covers an astonishing breadth of experiences, emotions, and species. Schott has tales of creatures ranging from tiny honeybees to massive Burmese pythons, although the emphasis is on dogs and cats and the interesting, often quirky, people who love them. He also doles out advice on current topics such as CBD oil, raw diets, and COVID-19, as well as the mysteries of catnip, dog flatulence, and duck erectile dysfunction. Schott's candor gives the reader a behind-the-scenes look at a profession that is much admired but often misunderstood. What is it really like to be a veterinarian? More to the point, what is it really like to be a veterinarian when confused pet parents call at 2:00 a.m.? Or when your patient bolts for the road? Or when you're asked to spay a dog on a resort's kitchen table? Readers will also learn how to make a sheep sit on its bum and, yes, how to examine a wolverine.
