Format: Unabridged

Length: 19:28:42

Language: English

Release date: 01-21-14

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers UK

Summary:

A young girls disappearance rocks a community and a family, in this stirring examination of grief, faith, justice and the atrocities of war, the latest from literary legend Joyce Carol Oates.

Zeno Mayfields daughter has disappeared into the night, gone missing in the wilds of the Adirondacks. But when the community of Carthage joins a fathers frantic search for the girl, they discover instead the unlikeliest of suspects a decorated Iraq War veteran with close ties to the Mayfield family. As grisly evidence mounts against the troubled war hero, the family must wrestle with the possibility of having lost a daughter forever.

CARTHAGE plunges us deep into the psyche of a wounded young Corporal, haunted by unspeakable acts of wartime aggression, while unraveling the story of a disaffected young girl whose exile from her family may have come long before her disappearance.

Dark and riveting, CARTHAGE is a powerful addition to the Joyce Carol Oates canon, one that explores the human capacity for violence, love and forgiveness, and asks it its ever truly possible to come home again.

Title: Shooting History: A Personal Journey

Author: Jon Snow

Narrator: Jon Snow

Format: Abridged

Length: 05:41:00

Language: English

Release date: 01-02-14

Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers UK

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Literary, World

Summary:

The compelling autobiography of one of the great and most committed newsmen of our time: full, frank, and occasionally very funny, Jon Snows memoirs are as revealing about the great and the not-so-good as about his own passionate involvement in the reporting of world affairs

Read by the author.

Jon Snow is perhaps the most highly regarded newsman of our time; his qualities as a journalist and as a human being his passion, warmth, intelligence, frankness and humour are widely recognised and evident for all to see most nights on television [Channel 4 News] and now by his own voice in the pages of his first book.

His vivid personal chronicle is filled with anecdotes and pithy observations, and delightfully records his life and times since becoming a journalist in the early 1970s. He reported widely on Cold War conflicts in Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Angola and Central America before becoming a resident correspondent in Washington D.C. in the 1980s, and has met and interviewed most of the worlds leaders.

Drawing lessons from these experiences, he has sharp things to say about how the increasing world disorder came about following the fall of the Berlin Wall; how the Wests constant search for an enemy has helped unhinge the world; and how and why the media have, in general, been less than helpful in drawing attention to key political and global developments.
