Titel: Schatzkiste der Tugenden

Autor:: Karin Schweitzer, Voltaire, Friedrich Schiller, Wilhelm Busch, Franz Kafka

Erzähler: Karin Schweitzer

Format: Unabridged

Spieldauer: 2 hrs and 1 min

Sprache: Deutsch

Veröffentlichungsdatum: 09-08-14

Herausgeber: Schweitzerhaus Verlag GmbH

Kategorien: Drama & Poetry, Poetry

Zusammenfassung des Herausgebers:

Karin Schweitzer nutzt die Tugenden für ein paar Gedanken, die dazu geführt haben, dass dieses Buch entstanden ist. Zu den eigenen Gedanken hat sie Gedichte, Geschichten und Märchen alter Meister und auch Kurzgeschichten moderner Autoren ihres eigenen Verlages gesetzt. Gleichberechtigt nebeneinander machen sie das Werk zu einem runden und kurzweiligen Hörvergnügen zum Nachdenken und Lachen.

Karin Schweitzer, Voltaire, Schiller, Busch, Kafka, Äsop sowie Christian Mörsch, Katharina Ende und Regine Schineis laden Sie ein, sich ebenfalls Gedanken über die Tugenden zu machen. Zum Beispiel das mit der Wahrheit. Was ist richtig? Die Wahrheit sagen und andere damit verletzen? Oder doch lieber ein bisschen die Wahrheit verbiegen, damit sich der Andere gut fühlt. Für den achtjährigen Max nicht so einfach.

Oder warst du schon einmal an der Brücke der Träume? Christian Mörschs Märchen führt dich dort hin und vielleicht erinnerst du dich an deine Träume, die du schon längst vergessen hast. Was gibt es Schöneres als Hilfe mit Freundschaft zu belohnen?

Liebe, Tugend und Freundschaft, wer kann die Menschen mehr beglücken? Friedrich Schiller beschreibt dies in seinem Brief an Körner und Minna zu deren Hochzeit in einer Geschichte, die auf dem Olymp spielt. Kafkas Parabel zum Gesetz lässt uns ziemlilch ratlos zurück und Schillers Bürgschaft rührt uns zu Tränen.

Zu diesem Titel erhalten Sie eine PDF-Datei, die nach dem Kauf automatisch Ihrer Bibliothek hinzugefügt wird.

Title: A Life in Rhyme - My Family

Subtitle: Rhyming Verse and Story Poems, Book 2

Author: Jean Shaw

Narrator: Jean Shaw

Format: Unabridged

Length: 27 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-04-14

Publisher: Jean Shaw

Genres: Drama & Poetry, Poetry

Publisher's Summary:

A Life in Rhyme - My Family is the second book in a collection of rhyming story poems I've written over a period of years.

None of them were initially written for book publication, but I have received such encouragement from friends and family about them, I've decided to compile the verses into four different titles. Book 2 introduces you to my family and the story poems I've written for them on their special birthdays and anniversaries.

Each one is like a This Is Your Life set in rhyme. I hope you enjoy listening to them as much as I enjoyed writing them.

Members Reviews:

This makes me love life

I don't usually read poetry, but I was curious about this set of poems. I started reading with some skepticism but soon I was caught up in the beautiful words that Jean Shaw puts on paper (digitally). I particularly liked the fact that she is British and I am American and I get to see a whole different way of looking at things. My favorite poem was Alzheimer's which actually brought me to tears. This is a beautiful work and I have already bought the other three in the series.

Inspirational poems for anyone suffering from low self-esteem and confidence

A message to the author Jean Shaw...your words and books are an inspiration to all "wives and mothers". You capture the magic and essence of life in a sentence and subtlety draw the reader into your world. You are an inspiration to other women who feel "life is passing them by" wonder what else is there for them to be other than a "wife and mother". Everyone is born creative and as a "wife and mother" your creativity and love shines through in the way you care, share and support your family and show appreciation for all life has given you.

Sharing your heartache and joy of mothering your sons is a testimony to the strength and character of the human spirit to rise and shine in all adversaries. Well done you've come through and immortalised your experience, which gives others going through similar heartaches and worries, strenght and hope for a brighter future.

Title: To Taste the Oil

Subtitle: The Flavor of Life in the Middle East

Author: Kelly Jadon

Narrator: Kelly Jadon

Format: Unabridged

Length: 59 mins

Language: English

Release date: 09-03-14

Publisher: Into The Deep Books

Genres: Drama & Poetry, Poetry

Publisher's Summary:

The West does not understand the Middle Eastern mind. Cultures clash because the latter is rooted in traditions stemming back more than 2,000 years with its roots buried as a palm's, in the desert sands of caravans, trade routes, and the door of faith. Christians of the Middle East are largely a forgotten people in the West. The author paints word pictures in snapshots, scenes from events in life which are passages - marriage, baptism, death, burial. Her poetry answers questions about how life in the Middle East is viewed: What is it like to live through numerous wars? Why do Christians from the Middle East live in diaspora? How do those in the Middle East live in peace? What is it like to have been a Bedouin, and later forced to settle down?

Married to a Christian from Nazareth, Israel, Kelly Jadon writes To Taste the Oil as seen through American eyes.

To Taste the Oil: an important audiobook for visitors to the Holy Land; beneficial to soldiers being deployed to the Middle East and those preparing to reside in the Middle East; intriguing matterial for book clubs; educational information for university and high school cultural, historical, and literature classes.

Members Reviews:

This Author Loves Food Metaphors.

"Basil & Spice" was the name of a blog this same author ran for years. The blog's title caused most new viewers to think it was a food or cooking website. Not so. Ditto for this book of poetry that does indeed use food metaphors as well as actual foods to introduce the readers to the Christian Cultures that have existed in the Middle East for two thousand years.

So skillfully done is the writing, that many of the meals that are an important part of every family and extended family celebrations that the reader can almost taste the distinct flavors. Some times the descriptions of the meal preparation seem like they could be used as actual receipts for making the yummy taste bud pleasers.

Reading this book will probably make most readers long for the large extended families that exist in the Middle East. Many of the mothers included in this book had a dozen children. The culture is so different that it almost seems like is from an unreal world.

This book will open the eyes of the Western readers through it's descriptions of important milestones in family life that hasn't changed much since Jesus walked the same areas described in this tome. The events are timeless. Birth, Baptism, learning, courting, weddings with the new bride moving out of her childhood home to the house of her Mother-in-law, Diaspora, endless war, loss, death, funerals, hope, all these events are conveyed in the poetry of this volume. As the author writes, "Music, dance, and poetry are in a sense the soul of the people of the Middle East. Poetry is often read aloud and is cherished, as it speaks to the heart in its native tongue."

It's definitely worth the read. And the reader should take a look at the author's portrait on the book's last page. The image almost seems to levitate. That adds a certain amount of surrealism to the marvelous poems.

A Delicious Taste of Middle East Christian Culture

To Taste the Oil: The Flavor of Life in the Middle East by Kelly Jadon packs a huge reading experience into s short book of poetry. From the beautiful cover, to the lush language, the reading experience is sensual, atmospheric.

Title: When Jack Sued Jill

Author: Felix Dennis

Narrator: Felix Dennis

Format: Unabridged

Length: 1 hr and 16 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-28-14

Publisher: Random House Audiobooks

Genres: Drama & Poetry, Poetry

Publisher's Summary:

When Jack Sued Jill is the latest collection of original verse by maverick multimillionaire publisher Felix Dennis. Taking the innocence of nursery rhymes and turning them into something altogether darker, Dennis turns his piercing eye on the follies and absurdities of modern life.

From ASBOs to Osama Bin Laden, creationism to crack houses, Humpty Dumpty to Tony Blair, nothing and no one is spared. Even more shockingly, once you've heard Dennis's updating of 'Little Miss Muffet', you'll never be able to think of her in the same way again.

Scathing and hilarious, imaginative, and unpredictable, When Jack Sued Jill is an essential collection of twisted nursery rhymes for the 21st century.

Members Reviews:

Modern subversive

While very English and set very much in the time that it was written, it is a great book in a modern subversive style, reflecting the historical fact that most English nursery rhymes were subversive when they were first written.

GREAT! HONESTLY GREAT.

What a new turn on the old cracker-box nursery rhymes. Felix Dennis has the mental liberty to write stuff like this. I applaud him for his veracity.

Title: A Vampire's Lament

Author: Edward Petty

Narrator: Jim Morris

Format: Unabridged

Length: 2 mins

Language: English

Release date: 08-21-14

Publisher: Edward Petty

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 6 votes

Genres: Drama & Poetry, Poetry

Publisher's Summary:

A Vampire's Lament that's sure to haunt you!

Extended "look inside" sample below.

This poem, although it was written by gay author Edward Petty almost 12 years ago, still captures Halloween's chilling and scary feel, and depicts how some spirits can remain restless.

A Vampire's Lament speaks about how monotonous and mundane it can be trying to sustain a sense of life, even in an not-so-dead state.

Bloodletting for food and survival are two horrors that can eventually wear on even a vampire.

Members Reviews:

short but nice

This was a very short (2 min long) poem about a vampire's well you guessed it, (his lament). The poem was very well written and the narration was on par. It had added sound effects with gave it more immersion. would be great addition to a vampire novel or even a movie.
