Title: Afrominimalist's Guide to Living with Less

Author: Christine Platt

Narrator: Christine Platt

Format: Unabridged

Length: 05:35:49

Language: English

Summary:

Forget the aesthetics of mainstream minimalism and discover a life of authenticity and intention with this “warm, engaging guide” (Laura Fenton, author of The Little Book of Small Living) to living with less…your way.

When Christine Platt set out on her journey to live with less, she never intended to become The Afrominimalist. She just wanted to tame the chaos in her closet! But after struggling with the austerity and whiteness of mainstream minimalism, Christine realized why minimalism often seems unattainable for so many: the emphasis on all-white, barren aesthetics distracts from the practice of living with intention. And so, she decided to do things her way by curating a life of less influenced by the African diaspora.

In The Afrominimalist’s Guide to Living With Less, Christine gets right to the heart of how childhood experiences and expectations manifest in adulthood, the delicate dance between needs and wants, and the complicated weight of familial and societal pressures. A far cry from Konmaried closets, capsule wardrobes, and conspicuous consumption, Christine’s brand of “living with less” is more than a decluttering regimen. “By detailing her own maximalist-to-minimalist transformation, Platt puts readers at ease” (The Washington Post) and presents a radical revisioning of minimalism, one that celebrates the importance of history and heritage, and gives you permission to make space for what really matters…your way.

Beautifully illustrated with original black-and-white prints and line drawings, The Afrominimalist’s Guide to Living With Less is a testament to the idea that anyone can be a minimalist and a warm invitation to a life curated with intention, perfect for readers of Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus (The Minimalists), Marie Kondo, Joshua Becker, and Courtney Carver.

Title: Seeing Serena

Author: Gerald Marzorati

Narrator: Kaleo Griffith

Format: Unabridged

Length: 07:52:57

Language: English

Release date: 06-15-21

Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio

Genres: Sports & Recreation, Biography & Memoir, Other, Women

Summary:

A riveting, revealing portrait of tennis champion and global icon Serena Williams that combines biography, cultural criticism, and sports writing to offer “a deep, satisfying meditation” (The New York Times) on the most consequential athlete of her time.

There has never been an athlete like Serena Williams. She has dominated women’s tennis for two decades, changed the way the game is played, and—by inspiring Naomi Osaka, Coco Gauff, and others—changed, too, the racial makeup of the pro game. But Williams’s influence has not been confined to the tennis court. As a powerful Black woman who struggled to achieve and sustain success, she has emerged as a cultural icon, figuring in conversations about body image, working mothers, and more.

Seeing Serena chronicles Williams’s return to tennis after giving birth to her daughter—from her controversial 2018 US Open final against Naomi Osaka through a 2020 season that unfolded against a backdrop of a pandemic and protests over the killing of Black men and women by the police. Gerald Marzorati, who writes about tennis for The New Yorker, travels to Wimbledon and to Compton, California, where Serena and her sister Venus learned to play. He talks with former women’s tennis greats, sports and cultural commentators—and Serena herself. He observes Williams from courtside, on the red carpet, in fashion magazines, on social media. He sees her and writes about her prismatically—reflecting on her many, many facets.

The result is an “enlightening…keen analysis” (The Washington Post) and energetic narrative that illuminates Serena’s singular status as the greatest women’s tennis player of all time and a Black woman with a global presence like no other.

Title: Voices of Dracula - A Call to Arms

Author: Chris Mcauley, Dacre Stoker

Narrator: Colin Baker

Format: Unabridged

Length: 00:17:44

Language: English

Release date: 06-09-21

Publisher: AndrewsUK

Genres: Mystery, Thriller & Horror

Summary:

Starring Colin Baker as Van Helsing.

In writing Dracula, Bram Stoker created a universe full of rich characters, dark and foreboding locations, and a tangled web of loyalties, relationships and motivations. Despite the story being fictional -at least one hopes that's the case - many elements within the story were reflections and analogies of the Stoker family and their history.

A little over 120 years after the book's original release, Bram's great-grandnephew Dacre Stoker has teamed up with author Chris McAuley to create a series of short stories set within the StokerVerse, each narrated from the point of view of one of the characters we all know - or think we know - so well.

In this episode, we learn exactly what drove Abraham Van Helsing to become a hunter of the undead from the man himself - the true origin story of the man who became scourge of the dreaded Nosferatu.

If you're a fan of vampires - particularly those of a more gothic nature - then these brand-new adventures will surely appeal to you. With Dacre Stoker's major contribution, these stories are the most significant addition to the official Dracula canon since Francis Ford Coppola's 1992 film Bram Stoker's Dracula.

TV's sixth Doctor Colin Baker (Doctor Who, Kingdom, Hustle) masterfully narrates vampire hunter Van Helsing's stories whilst Terry Molloy - most famous for playing the Doctor's on-screen nemesis Davros - takes the part of Renfield. Jessica Martin (Doctor Who, The Sandman) completes the line-up as Mina Harker.
