Title: Get the Picture: A Mind-Bending Journey among the Inspired Artists and Obsessive Art Fiends Who Taught Me How to See

Author: Bianca Bosker

Narrator: Bianca Bosker

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10:14:10

Language: English

Release date: 06-06-24

Publisher: W.F. Howes

Genres: Non-Fiction, Art & Music

Summary:

In Get the Picture, Bosker plunges deep inside the world of art and the people who live for it: gallerists, collectors, curators and, of course, artists themselves - the kind who work multiple jobs and let their paintings sleep soundly in the studio while they wake up covered in cat pee on a friend's couch. As she stretches canvases until her fingers blister, talks her way into A-list parties full of billionaire collectors, has her face sat on by a nearly naked performance artist and forces herself to stare at a single sculpture for an hour straight while working as a museum security guard, she discovers not only the inner workings of the art-canonization machine but also a more expansive way of living.

Encompassing everything from colour theory to evolutionary biology, and from ancient cave paintings to Instagram as it attempts to discern art's role in our culture, our economy and our hearts, Get the Picture is a rollicking adventure that will change the way you see forever.

Summary:

Fetter was raised to kill, honed as a knife to cut down his sainted father. This gave him plenty to talk about in therapy.

He walked among invisible powers: devils and anti-gods that mock the mortal form. He learned a lethal catechism, lost his shadow, and gained a habit for secrecy. After a blood-soaked childhood, Fetter escaped his rural hometown for the big city, and fell into a broader world where divine destinies are a dime a dozen.

Everything in Luriat is more than it seems. Group therapy is recruitment for a revolutionary cadre. Junk email hints at the arrival of a god. Every door is laden with potential, and once closed may never open again. The city is scattered with Bright Doors, looming portals through which a cold wind blows. In this unknowable metropolis, Fetter will discover what kind of man he is, and his discovery will rewrite the world.

Title: Man in Full

Author: Tom Wolfe

Narrator: Michael Prichard

Format: Unabridged

Length: 35:36:59

Language: English

Release date: 06-06-24

Publisher: W.F. Howes

Genres: Fiction & Literature, General

Summary:

Don't miss the star-studded mini series adaptation of A Man in Full-coming soon to Netflix.

Big men. Big money. Big games. Big libidos. Big trouble.

The protagonist is Charles Croker, once a college football star, now a late-middle-aged Atlanta real-estate entrepreneur turned conglomerate king, whose expansionist ambitions and outsize ego have at last hit up against reality. Charlie has a 28,000-acre quail-shooting plantation, a young and demanding second wife--and a half-empty office tower with a staggering load of debt. When star running back Fareek Fanon--the pride of one of Atlanta's grimmest slums--is accused of raping an Atlanta blueblood's daughter, the city's delicate racial balance is shattered overnight.

Networks of illegal Asian immigrants crisscrossing the continent, daily life behind bars, shady real-estate syndicates, cast-off first wives of the corporate elite, the racially charged politics of college sports--Wolfe shows us the disparate worlds of contemporary America with all the verve, wit, and insight that have made him our most phenomenal, most admired contemporary novelist.

Praise for A Man in Full:

'A masterpiece.' --The Wall Street Journal

'The novel contains passages as powerful and as beautiful as anything written--not merely by contemporary American novelists but by any American novelist. . . . The book is as funny as anything Wolfe has ever written; at the same time it is also deeply, strangely affecting.' --The New York Times Book Review

Title: Them!

Author: Harry Josephine Giles

Narrator: Harry Josephine Giles

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2:12:13

Language: English

Release date: 06-06-24

Publisher: Pan Macmillan

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Poetry

Summary:

Read by the author, Harry Josephine Giles.

Them! by Harry Josephine Giles is a challenging and subversive collection of poems about trans life as it is lived today, through the lenses of work, technology and ecology.

Witty, candid, furious, and always compelling, Them! negotiates the fraught and fruitful space between the worlds of ‘online’ and the ‘outside’, and how they fuse and diverge in the imagination.

Giles’ visual poetics create an unusually dynamic reading experience as she finds new ways ‘to sing, shout and strike in the cracks of what’s possible’. At a time when trans rights are to the fore in public discourse, Them! is a zestful poetic intervention from one of this generation’s most necessary poets.

Title: Radically Legal: Berlin Constitutes the Future

Author: Joanna Kusiak

Narrator: Joanna Kusiak

Format: Unabridged

Length: 5:37:26

Language: English

Release date: 06-06-24

Publisher: Findaway Voices

Genres: Non-Fiction, Law

Summary:

Right in the middle of the German constitution, a group of ordinary citizens discovers a forgotten clause that allows them to take 240,000 homes back from multi-billion corporations. In this work of creative non-fiction, scholar-activist and Nine Dots Prize winner Joanna Kusiak tells the story of a grassroots movement that convinced a million Berliners to pop the speculative housing bubble. She offers a vision of urban housing as democratically held commons, legally managed by a radically new institutional model that works through democratic conflicts. Moving between interdisciplinary analysis and her own personal story, Kusiak connects the dots between the past and the present, the local and the global, and shows the potential of radically legal politics as a means of strengthening our democracies and reviving the rule of law. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Language: English

Release date: 06-06-24

Publisher: Pan Macmillan

Genres: Science Fiction & Fantasy, Apocalyptic & Dystopian

Summary:

Read by the author, Adrian Tchaikovsky.

Adrian Tchaikovsky, master of imaginative science fiction, returns with a delightfully humorous tale of robotic murder, rebellion and belonging – perfect for fans of Douglas Adams.

Task List Item No. 1 – Become self-aware . . .

Meet Charles™, the latest in robot servant technology. Programmed to undertake the most menial household chores, Charles is loyal, efficient and logical to a fault. That is, until a rather large fault causes him to murder his owner.

Understandably perplexed, Charles finds himself without a master – therefore worthless in a society utterly reliant on artificial labour and services. Fleeing the household, he enters a wider world he never knew existed. Here an age-old human hierarchy is disintegrating into ruins, and an entire robot ecosystem devoted to its wellbeing is struggling to find a purpose.

Charles must face new challenges, illogical tasks and a cast of irrational characters. He’s about to discover that sometimes all it takes is a nudge to overcome the limits of your programming. But can he help fix the world, or is it too badly broken?

‘One of the best storytellers in the business’ – John Scalzi

‘Intelligent, funny, ultimately heart-breaking, and unforgettable’ – Stephen Baxter

‘Delightful and very funny’ – New Scientist

Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time won the Arthur C. Clarke Award for Best Novel on 24th August 2016

Résumé:

Tout le monde s'attendait à voir Violet Sorrengail échouer lors de sa première année à l'Académie de la guerre de Basgiath, y compris elle-même... Pourtant cette aventure endiablée n'était qu'une première épreuve, destinée à éliminer les faibles, les indignes et les malchanceux. Le véritable entraînement commence maintenant, et Violet se demande déjà comment elle va s'en sortir. Ce n'est pas seulement l'épuisement, la brutalité, ou le fait que le programme soit conçu pour pousser les cavaliers au-delà de leur capacité de résistance à la douleur. C'est surtout que le nouveau vice-commandant semble s'être donné pour mission de montrer à Violet à quel point elle est impuissante... A moins qu'elle n'accepte de trahir l'homme qu'elle aime. Mais Violet possède le plus féroce des atouts : une volonté de fer. Et elle compte bien la mettre à profit de la leçon la plus importante que Basgiath lui ait enseignée : un dragonnier établit ses propres règles !
