Publisher's Summary:

Emma Woodhouse er bde smuk, intelligent og rig. Efter sin mors dd har hun indtaget rollen som frstedame p Hartfield, hvor hun bor sammen med sin omsorgsfulde, men noget hypokondriske far. Woodhouse-familien er en af de fornemmeste p egnen, og Emma er meget bevidst om sin overlegne position svel som sine vrige fortrin. Da hun ptager sig rollen som Kirsten Giftekniv over for sin veninde Harriet, lber hendes livlige fantasi flere gange af med hende, og hendes tendens til at nre lidt for hje tanker om sig selv og sin egen dmmekraft medfrer utallige forviklinger og fr helt uforudsete konsekvenser. Emma, som ogs er meget krlig og charmerende, har mange venner, der tilsyneladende alle er blinde over for hendes fejl. Bortset fra Mr. Knightley. Han forsger utrtteligt at f den stdige Emma til at indse sin egen indbildskhed, men da hun endelig begynder at indrmme sandheden over for sig selv, er det lige ved at vre for sent.

Please note: This audiobook is in Danish.

Critic Reviews:

"Bogen er som en brusende kvadrille med partnerskifte, til alle efter megen uvished finder den rette totalbilledets elskvrdighed er uimodstelig." (Jacob Paludan, Politiken)

"Rene mesterstykker er portrtterne af den snakkesyge Miss Bates og Emmas far, den gamle forpylrede Mr. Woodhouse. De er bundkomiske, men meget menneskelige og meget elskelige. Alle hendes figurer trder os lyslevende i mde tvrs gennem deres historiske mundering. Giv dem andre hatte, bukser eller kjoler p, og vi har dem spadserende rundt imellem os i dag." (Mogens Knudsen, Information)

"Klassikeren Emma har 200 r p bagen. Det mrkes ikke p sproget, som i denne oversttelse er nutidigt. ... Portrtterne er kosteligt gode ... og Jane Austen brillerer med sine fine psykologiske iagttagelser." (Lektrudtalelse)

Title: The Madness of Andlesprutz

Author: Dunsany

Narrator: Mike Vendetti

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10 mins

Language: English

Release date: 02-17-15

Publisher: Spoken Realms

Genres: Classics, British Literature

Publisher's Summary:

Here is a very short, a very slight sort of tale which may yet manage to hold either a very big ghost or a very potent allegory. Lord Dunsany penned this sometime about the period of the First World War. Yet in what period of history, from the most ancient past up to very present, has not something of the spectre of Andelsprutz been perceptible to those with a sense of history. For those, this story will prove a "thought-piece" as well as a compelling fantasy.

Members Reviews:

Too many steps in this story

Decent spy story but the chase through the English countryside should have been half as long. There were also a few too many miraculous rescues to be believable.

Title: Gulliver's Travels, Part One: 'A Voyage to Lilliput' (20 June 1702 - 3 June 1706)

Author: Jonathan Swift

Narrator: Joel Grey

Format: Abridged

Length: 4 hrs and 45 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-26-15

Publisher: Phoenix Books

Genres: Classics, British Literature

Publisher's Summary:

Shipwrecked on an unknown island, Quinbus Fiestrin awakens to find himself tied to the ground by the natives of Lilliput--tiny people small enough to fit in his pocket and play hide and seek in his hair! Fiestrin finds himself not only a very big fish in a small pond but also a fish out of water.

"Part One: A Voyage to Lilliput" is the most famous segment of the novel, where the at-first suspicious Gulliver soon earns the trust of the Lilliputian people, who enlist their newfound giant in defending them from their enemies on the bordering island of Blefufeu--who likewise are desperate to use the giant in their war against Lilliput. Stevenson, it would seem, had a sense of the future, as this is truly a tale of the fight over a weapon of mass destruction.

American actor, singer, and dancer Joel Grey is best known for portraying the master of ceremonies in both the stage and film versions of the musical Cabaret. He has won the Academy Award, Tony Award, and Golden Globe Award.

Narrator: Sean Barrett, Lucy Scott

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 hrs and 15 mins

Language: English

Release date: 01-20-15

Publisher: Audible Studios

Genres: Classics, British Literature

Publisher's Summary:

The first five stories in this collection are stories from Ireland, exploring the dark history of the country and the dogged optimism of its people. The following four tales are of the uncanny - striking studies of witchcraft and black magic, evoking a strange haunting atmosphere illustrating the power of evil and its effect on the imagination.

'Mrs. Oliver Cromwell' is a revealing glimpse of the Lord Protector through the eyes of his homely unassuming wife, unhappy in the unaccustomed grandeur thrust upon her by circumstances.

The last story 'Where beauty lies' is an eighteenth century frolic over a nobleman's choice of bride.

Margaret Irwin (1889-1969) was educated at Clifton High School in Bristol, and then at Oxford University. She began writing books and short stories in the early 1920s. She married childrens author and illustrator John Robert Monsell in 1929. Irwin was praised for her historical accuracy in her novels, and she wrote passionately about the English Civil War. In The Proud Servant she caused generations to fall in love with the ill-fated but charismatic Earl of Montrose.
