Title: Remember You Will Die: A Novel

Author: Eden Robins

Narrator: Henriette Zoutomou

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 23 minutes

Release date: October 22, 2024

Genres: Literary Fiction

Publisher's Summary:

'Can the absence of words tell a story? Like a pattern in lace, the holes as important as the threads?' A search. A puzzle. Sixty protagonists—all of whom are dead. Told entirely through obituaries and ricocheting through time, Remember You Will Die is an innovative, genre-bending epic about the messy tapestry of human history and the threads that connect us, told through the eyes of Peregrine, an AI mother grappling with the unexpected death of her human daughter, Poppy. And from the newspaper clippings of individual lives emerges something else unexpected: generations entwined through blood and art and the consequences of their actions, betrayals and redemptions that traverse our dying world and beyond. Spanning continents, centuries, planets, and genres, and centering a diverse mix of human experiences, Remember You Will Die is a provocative exploration of who we are and what we could be.

Narrator: Justine Eyre

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 6 hours 45 minutes

Release date: October 22, 2024

Genres: Literary Fiction

Publisher's Summary:

In January 2314, Rowena Savalas—a curator of the vast archive of the twenty-first century's primitive internet—stumbles upon a story posted in the summer of 2024. She's quickly drawn into the mystery of the text: Is it autobiography, fantasy, or fraud? What's the significance of the recurring number 381? In the story, the protagonist Fairly walks the Horned Road—a quest undertaken by youngsters in her village when they come of age. She is followed by the 'breathing man,' a looming presence, dogging her heels every step of the way. Everything she was taught about her world is overturned. Following Fairly's quest, Rowena comes to question her own choices, and a predictable life of curation becomes one of exploration, adventure, and love. As both women's stories draw to a close, she realizes it doesn't matter whether the story is true or not: as with the quest itself, it's the journey that matters.

Title: [Spanish] - Solar

Author: Ian McEwan

Narrator: Luis García Márquez

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 10 hours 32 minutes

Release date: October 16, 2024

Genres: Literary Fiction

Publisher's Summary:

Michael Beard es un físico que recibió hace años el Premio Nobel por un descubrimiento que en los medios científicos se conoce como la Combinación Beard-Einstein -y aquí comienza la feroz, irresistible ironía de McEwan, porque «combinación» implica también simbiosis, confusión-, y desde entonces se ha limitado a vivir apoltronado en sus laureles. Beard tiene ahora cincuenta y pocos años, y se encuentra en el tramo final de su quinto matrimonio, un final que no se parece en nada a los de sus cuatro uniones anteriores, menos emocionales y más convencionales. Porque Patrice, la quinta esposa, diecinueve años menor que él, y que observada desde ciertos ángulos se parece a Marilyn Monroe, cuando descubrió su aventura con una matemática de la Universidad de Berlín reaccionó con una euforia inesperada. Se mudó a otra habitación, y antes de que pasara una semana había iniciado una relación con Rodney Tarpin, el constructor que les rehabilitaba la casa, veinte años menor que Beard, capaz de subir corriendo las escaleras con un saco de cemento de cincuenta kilos bajo el brazo, y que no lee más que periódicos deportivos. Beard, que nunca ha sido galardonado por su atractivo pero siempre ha tenido éxito con las mujeres, y en todos sus matrimonios ha sido el adúltero y el culpable, ahora sufre desesperadamente por la bella Patrice. Aunque quizá su dolor sea más intenso porque desde hace años no es más que un burócrata de la ciencia, un científico para quien la emoción y la aventura han quedado relegadas a la vida privada, la cabeza visible de un instituto estatal para la investigación de las energías renovables que es poco más que un artilugio político. Entre los jóvenes becarios del instituto se encuentra Tom Aldous, que aún se apasiona por lo que hace, y tiene proyectos mucho más ambiciosos que la insignificante turbina a la que aspiran los políticos. Y cuando una noche Tom lleva a Beard a casa en su coche, y conoce a Patrice, la combinación de adulterio en las clases ilustradas y esperpento científico deviene una negra comedia de enredos, de intriga en el más puro estilo de Hitchcock, con cadáver incluido. Y aquí y ahora, en este mundo en los umbrales del gran cambio climático, del temido calentamiento global...

Author: Kristen Gentry

Narrator: Carmen Jewel Jones

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 7 hours 27 minutes

Release date: October 15, 2024

Genres: Literary Fiction

Publisher's Summary:

The linked stories in Mama Said are set in Louisville, Kentucky, a city with a rich history steeped in tobacco, bourbon, and gambling, indulgences that can quickly become gripping and destructive vices. Set amid the tail end of the crack epidemic and the rise of the opioid crisis, Mama Said evokes Black family life in all its complexity, following JayLynn, along with her cousins Zaria and Angel, as they come of age struggling against their mothers' drug addictions. JayLynn heads to college intent on gaining distance from her depressed mother, only to learn that her mother's illness has reached a terrifying peak. She fears the chaos and instability of her extended family will prove too much for her boyfriend, whose idyllic family feels worlds, not miles, apart from her own. When bats invade Zaria's new home, she is forced to determine how much she is willing to sacrifice to be a good mother. Angel rebels on Derby night, risking her safety to connect with her absent mother and the wild ways that consumed her. Mama Said separates from stereotypes of Black families, presenting instead the joy, humor, and love that coexist with the trauma of drug abuse within communities. Kristen Gentry's stories showcase the wide-reaching repercussions of addiction and the ties that forever bind daughters to their mothers, flaws and all.

Title: Chickpeas to Cook and Other Stories

Author: Nilanjana Sengupta

Narrator: Anita Dhawan Mehrotra

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 4 hours 36 minutes

Release date: October 15, 2024

Genres: Literary Fiction

Publisher's Summary:

Chickpeas to Cook is the story of the woman of the tribe, women from some of the smallest of communities, often no more than a few hundred families in Singapore. How do these women live, think, breathe? What does the Dawoodi Bohra woman answer, for instance, when she’s asked if her daughter will don the ridah after marriage? When does the Sikh woman decide it’s time to come out of her brother’s shadow and live for herself? What does the Eurasian woman do when her DNA report arrives and it doesn’t quite tally with what her parents told her? What does the Zoroastrian woman tell the author about bridges and confluences while she helps her navigate a difficult period of introspection?Yes, it’s a world of dwindling walls, a veritable house of mirrors where reflections bounce off each other into infinitude, yet each appears more familiar than the last. It’s about ordinary women living ordinary lives, taking ordinary decisions, made extraordinary only by the love, empathy and fortitude they invest in it. But beware! For under the haunting haze lies magic – a woman’s communion with herself, with the truths of the universe. And when the individual stories are sown together, it transforms yet again, into a connected journey of intimate understanding.
