Title: Walking the Nile

Author: Levison Wood

Narrator: Gildart Jackson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11:13:43

Language: English

Release date: 06-21-16

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Essays & Travelogues, Travel Tips

Summary:

Starting in November 2013 in a forest in Rwanda, where a modest spring spouts a trickle of clear, cold water, Levison Wood set forth on foot, aiming to become the first person to walk the entire length of the Nile. He followed the river for nine months, over 4,000 miles, through six nations-Rwanda, Tanzania, Uganda, South Sudan, the Republic of Sudan, and Egypt-to the Mediterranean coast.

Like his predecessors, Wood camped in the wild, foraged for food, and trudged through rainforest, swamp, savannah, and desert, enduring life-threatening conditions at every turn. He traversed sandstorms, flash floods, minefields, and more, becoming a local celebrity in Uganda, where a popular rap song was written about him, and a potential enemy of the state in South Sudan, where he found himself caught in a civil war and detained by the secret police.

An inimitable tale of survival, resilience, and sheer willpower, Walking the Nile is an inspiring chronicle of an epic journey down the lifeline of civilization in northern Africa.

Title: Conspiracies of the Ruling Class: How to Break Their Grip Forever

Author: Lawrence B. Lindsey

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:44:38

Language: English

Release date: 06-21-16

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Current Affairs, American Politics, Political Advocacy, Political Ideologies

Summary:

A Ruling Class have emerged in America against the hopes and designs of our Founding Fathers. Over the last hundred years, they have rejected the Constitution and expanded their own power, slowly at first and now rapidly. These people believe their actions are justified because they think they are smarter than the rest of us-so smart they can run our lives better than we can.

But for all the power and resources at their command, they have failed-miserably. Society has become increasingly unequal, even as we're promised 'equality.' Our government finances are out of control, our basic infrastructure is broken, and education is unaffordable and mediocre. And yet the Ruling Class think the solution is for us to grant them ever more control.

We can stop this-but to do so we must unite. In Conspiracies of the Ruling Class, Lawrence B. Lindsey lays out his plan for how we can use common sense to change the way our country is run. Finally, here is the truth from a Washington insider about how to reawaken the spirit upon which America was founded, with liberty for every person to pursue his or her own dreams.

Title: Melville in Love: The Secret Life of Herman Melville and the Muse of Moby-dick

Author: Michael Shelden

Narrator: Sean Pratt

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:49:40

Language: English

Release date: 06-15-16

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Biography & Memoir, Literary, World, History & Culture

Summary:

Herman Melville's epic novel, Moby-Dick, was a spectacular failure when it was published in 1851, effectively ending its author's rise to literary fame. Because he was neglected by academics for so long, and because he made little effort to preserve his legacy, we know very little about Melville, and even less about what he called his 'wicked book.' Scholars still puzzle over what drove Melville to invent Captain Ahab's mad pursuit of the great white whale.

In Melville in Love Michael Shelden sheds light on this literary mystery to tell a story of Melville's passionate and clandestine affair with a married woman named Sarah Morewood, whose libertine impulses encouraged and sustained Melville's own. In his research, Shelden discovered documents suggesting that, in their shared resistance to the 'iron rule' of social conformity, Sarah and Melville had forged an illicit and enduring romantic and intellectual bond. Emboldened by the thrill of courting Sarah in secret, the pleasure of falling in love, and the excitement of spending time with literary luminaries, Melville found the courage to take the leap from light works of adventure to the hugely brilliant, utterly subversive Moby-Dick.

Title: House Full of Daughters

Author: Juliet Nicolson

Narrator: Julie Teal

Format: Unabridged

Length: 09:53:00

Language: English

Release date: 06-14-16

Publisher: Random House (Audio)

Genres: History, Biography & Memoir, Non-Fiction, World, Social Science

Summary:

A family memoir that traces the myths, legends, and secrets of seven generations of remarkable women

All families have their myths and legends. For many years Juliet Nicolson accepted hers--the dangerous beauty of her flamenco dancing great-great-grandmother Pepita, the flirty manipulation of her great-grandmother Victoria, the infamous eccentricity of her grandmother Vita Sackville-West, her mother’s Tory-conventional background. But then Juliet, a distinguished historian, started to question. As she did so, she sifted fact from fiction, uncovering details and secrets long held just out of sight.

A House Full of Daughters takes us through seven generations of women. In the nineteenth-century slums of Malaga, the salons of fin-de-siecle Washington D.C., an English boarding school during the Second World War, Chelsea in the 1960s, the knife-edge that was New York City in the 1980s, these women emerge for Juliet as people in their own right, but also as part of who she is and where she has come from.

A House Full of Daughters is one woman’s investigation into the nature of family, memory, and the past. As Juliet finds uncomfortable patterns reflected in these distant and more recent versions of herself, she realizes her challenge is to embrace the good and reject the hazards that have trapped past generations.

Title: Us versus Us: The Untold Story of Religion and the LGBT Community

Author: Andrew Marin

Narrator: Paul Boehmer

Format: Unabridged

Length: 05:38:30

Language: English

Release date: 06-01-16

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Religious Studies

Summary:

Would you believe that 86 percent of LGBT people-from the proud marcher at the Pride Parade to the quiet, closeted teen-spent their childhood in church? More than half of them left those religious communities as adults; three out of four would be happy to come back.

For decades now we have found ourselves caught up in a culture war: us versus them. Good news: there is no them. Our culture war has been a civil war: us versus us. And there is a path toward meaningful peace.

Andrew Marin brings the startling findings of his largest-ever scientific survey of the religious history, practices, and beliefs of the LGBT community. Marin's findings offer clear direction for both sides of a long cultural battle to meet in the middle, sacrificing neither conviction nor integrity as they rediscover the things they have in common and the hope found in Christ alone.

Title: Chelsea Girls: A Novel

Author: Eileen Myles

Narrator: Eileen Myles

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:18:19

Language: English

Release date: 05-24-16

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Literary Fiction, Coming of Age, Contemporary Women, LGBTQ+

Summary:

In this breathtakingly inventive autobiographical novel, Eileen Myles transforms life into a work of art. Told in her audacious voice, made vivid and immediate in her lyrical language, Chelsea Girls cobbles together memories of Myles's 1960s Catholic upbringing with an alcoholic father, her volatile adolescence, her unabashed 'lesbianity,' and her riotous pursuit of survival as a poet in 1970s New York.

Suffused with alcohol, drugs, and sex; evocative in its depictions of the hardscrabble realities of a young artist's life; and poignant with stories of love, humor, and discovery, Chelsea Girls is a funny, cool, and intimate account of a writer's education, and a modern chronicle of how a young female writer shrugged off the chains of a rigid cultural identity meant to define her.
