Title: Dancing into My Bolshoi Dream: A Vision That Turns into Reality Subtitle: Ballet Butterfly, Book 1 Author: Anna Duvall Narrator: Anna Duvall Format: Unabridged Length: 51 mins Language: English Release date: 12-07-17 Publisher: BalletButterfly.com Ratings: 3 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Publisher's Summary: The true story of a 15-year-old girl who goes to Moscow to study ballet at the Bolshoi. Just after the Berlin Wall falls, the USSR becomes Russia and a coup has taken over the government. Anna makes the impossible possible when her dream becomes a reality and she becomes one of the first Americans ever to study at the Bolshoi Ballet Academy in Moscow. She encounters adventures, trials, and heartaches along the way - including culture shock, language barriers, a first love, and a gang of Gypsy kids. Authored by creative and well-known ballet dancer and educator Anna Duvall, Dancing into My Bolshoi Dream is Anna's amazing true story of survival through the harsh conditions of Moscow at a time when the newly-formed Russian mafia has more control over Russia than the government. Misha Tchoupakov, formerly of the Bolshoi Ballet, describes the book as "very real, with lots of emotions." "A truly inspiring story of perseverance against all odds in a strange and foreign land," says Patrick Cross, nutritionist, trainer, and elite sports therapist. "A dreamy depiction written from the perspective of her dreamy 15-year-old self," says a published fiction writer, her father. Anna's survival during her intensive dance studies depends on connecting with the humanity of her directors, teachers, and fellow students. Thus begins the story of empathy with her very strict ballet teacher, and Anna's perseverance through physical and psychological torment during her studies. Since the Russian invasion of the American psyche still persists today, making daily headlines, Anna proves to be an authentic source of knowledge and insight into the creative minds of Russia. She provides an in-depth firsthand understanding of people, conflicts, and culture, the forces that awaken creativity at its best, producing the most celebrated ballet dancers in the world even during difficult times in their homeland.

Title: Michael Rabin, America's Virtuoso Violinist Subtitle: The First Authorized Biography - Revised and Updated Author: Anthony Feinstein Narrator: Guy Bannerman Format: Unabridged Length: 10 hrs Language: English Release date: 08-28-17 Publisher: Amadeus Press Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Publisher's Summary: In Michael Rabin: America's Virtuoso Violinist, Anthony Feinstein tells the poignant story of the life and career of one of history's greatest violinists. As a child prodigy, Rabin had the classical music world at his feet. Notable successes included a coveted EMI contract, recording the soundtrack for an Elizabeth Taylor movie, and guest appearances on The Milton Berle Show and The Bell Telephone Hour. Yet no sooner had Rabin taken his place alongside such illustrious colleagues as Heifetz, Milstein, and Stern, that he abruptly and inexplicably disappeared from the concert stage. For three years, the public saw and heard little of him. In the mid-1960s, Rabin resurfaced and painstakingly began rebuilding a once-great career. Then one morning, the music world awoke to news of his sudden, mysterious death at age 35. For the first edition of this biography, Feinstein had unprecedented access to Rabin's private papers and medical history. Now he draws on additional material obtained from recent interviews with Rabin's colleagues, girlfriends, and management. The result is an added appreciation of Rabin's remarkable family, his cloistered upbringing, and a micromanaged career that ensured not only great success, but also periods of deep despair. Michael Rabin: America's Virtuoso Violinist is more than a story of a great violinist. It is also the moving account of a man of rare talent who never stopped battling to find personal happiness on that fragile journey from wunderkind to adulthood. The audiobook contains numerous musical extracts from Rabin's recordings that span his career from wunderkind to mature artist.

Title: Loving Robert Lowell Author: Sandra Hochman Narrator: Dawn Harvey Format: Unabridged Length: 7 hrs and 26 mins Language: English Release date: 06-27-17 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Ratings: 1 of 5 out of 1 votes Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Publisher's Summary: When asked in 1976 by a reporter from People magazine if her first two novels were autobiographical, Sandra Hochman replied, "My real life is much more fabulous than the books. One day I plan to write about it - men, Paris, and women's liberation. It will probably be called Unreal Life." Hochman first met Pulitzer Prize-winning American poet Robert Lowell in 1961 at the Russian Tea Room in New York. She was to interview him for Encounter magazine. Hochman was 25 and had recently returned from Paris, where she had lived with her husband for four years. They were now separated. Lowell was 43, with plans to leave his wife. Hochman remembers it as the day that changed her life. The two poets fell in love instantly, and before the night was over, they had vowed to stay together forever. In Hochman's first literary work in almost 40 years, she writes in startling detail about the torrid, violent, and doomed affair that would follow.

Title: The Mighty Franks Subtitle: A Memoir Author: Michael Frank Narrator: Michael Frank Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 06-15-17 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers Limited Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Publisher's Summary: A story at once extremely strange and entirely familiar - about families, innocence, art and love. This hugely enjoyable, totally unforgettable memoir is a classic in the making. 'My aunt called our two families the Mighty Franks. But, she said, you and I, Lovey, are a thing apart. The two of us have pulled our wagons up to a secret campsite. We know how lucky we are. We're the most fortunate people in the world to have found each other, isn't it so?' Michael Frank's upbringing was unusual, to say the least. His aunt was his father's sister and his uncle his mother's brother. The two couples lived blocks apart in the hills of LA, with both grandmothers in an apartment together nearby. Most unusual of all was his aunt, 'Hankie': a beauty with violet eyelids and leaves fastened in her hair, a woman who thought that conformity was death, a Hollywood screenwriter spinning seductive fantasies. With no children of her own, Hankie took a particular shine to Michael, taking him on antiquing excursions, telling him about 'the very last drop of her innermost self', holding him in her orbit in unpredictable ways. This love complicated the delicate balance of the wider family and changed Michael's life forever. Critic Reviews: "An utterly magical book. Michael Frank inherits Truman Capote's glorious ability to recreate the past in an act of exquisite, knowing retrieval. Set on the glamorous, conflicted fringes of 20th century Hollywood, Frank's memoir is a glittering, happy-sad evocation of his elegant, tyrannical, stylish aunt and the rest of his extraordinary family. I hung on every word, spying through his child's eyes. This is intense and lyrical prose: I never wanted it to stop." (Philip Hoare) "P.G. Wodehouse could not have invented Michael Frank's aunt. An astonishing story of a relationship and a family that ends up the wrong side up and inside-out. Beautiful, strange and true." (Ian Sansom) "The Mighty Franks is very easy to love and very hard to put down. It is a terrific portrait of Los Angeles at a particular time for all of us who ever fantasized about growing up with pools, palm trees, and, yes, even the occasional star. Moving, wonderfully written, and marvelously written, it is filled with characters who love you, hug you, drive you crazy, and sometimes make you cry." (George Hodgman, author of Bettyville)

Title: British Legends: The Life and Legacy of Freddie Mercury Author: Charles River Editors Narrator: Jim D Johnston Format: Unabridged Length: 1 hr and 20 mins Language: English Release date: 04-06-17 Publisher: Charles River Editors Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Artists, Writers, & Musicians Publisher's Summary: Like many pop cultural icons (and rock icons in particular), Freddie Mercury is one of the most recognizable figures of the 20th century and yet one of the more enigmatic personalities as well. To be sure, anyone who was alive during the reign of Queen is well aware of who Mercury was and the sound of his music (even those who despise rock music are familiar with the blasting, deliriously over-the-top rhythms of songs like "We Are the Champions"). At the same time, a noteworthy discrepancy existed between the flamboyant personality that Freddie maintained during his performances and public appearances and the rather guarded manner in which he kept his private life more or less shielded from public view. By way of example, while it is now common knowledge that Mercury was homosexual (or at least bisexual), this was a fact that he avoided disclosing to the general public, and even his band mates were kept unaware until 1975. In some cases, biographical details are still not entirely clear, although the past 15 years have done much to clear up certain aspects of his life that Mercury kept close to the vest.
