Summary:

As long as people have been writing books, authors have been using them to create misrepresentations of women. From medieval reality show-style wife tests to twenty-first century dating guides based on two-hundred-year-old novels, Conduct Books and the History of the Ideal Woman takes readers on a guided tour of advice on what women should and should not do.

Think todays media is bad? In this book, youll discover:

A sixteenth-century writer who believed women had the power to transform mens bad thoughts into good ones (if she didnt and something bad happened, it was her faultsound familiar?)

Why clothes were invented, and that pretty dresses are evil

Why young ladies should never readgasp!novels

The difference between conduct manuals and etiquette books, and why good manners are basically the same as good morals

What twentieth-century self-help books have in common with the Middle Ages

Meticulously researched and displaying wry wit (and occasionally exasperation), Conduct Books and the History of the Ideal Woman links seven hundred years of advice on womens behavior, tracing a through-line from the earliest printed texts that argued women were the property of men, to various iterations of feminism, to todays casual misogyny. A must-read for everyone who is or knows a woman!

Title: Gone the Hard Road: A Memoir

Author: Lee Martin

Narrator: Danny Campbell

Format: Unabridged

Length: 06:07:55

Language: English

Release date: 05-04-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Biography & Memoir

Summary:

'Count your blessings,' his mother told him, 'Think of everything good in your life.'

Pulitzer Prize finalist Lee Martin has done it again. Building from his acclaimed first memoir, From Our House, which recounts the farming accident that cost his father both his hands, Gone the Hard Road is the story of Beulah Martin's endurance and sacrifice as a mother, and the gift of imagination she offered her son. Martin unfolds the world she created for him within their unsettled family life, from the first time she read to him in a doctor's office waiting room, to enrolling him in a children's book club, to the books she bought him in high school. Gone the Hard Road portrays Beulah's selflessness as the family moved around the Midwest, sometimes in the face of her husband's opposition, to show her son a different way of being. Rather than concentrate on the life his father threatened to destroy, as Martin's previous memoirs do, Gone the Hard Road offers the counternarrative of a loving mother and the creative life she made possible, in spite of the eventual cost to herself.

Poignant, honest, and moving, Gone the Hard Road will stay with anyone who has ever struggled to find their place in the world.

Title: Good and Angry: Redeeming Anger, Irritation, Complaining, and Bitterness

Author: David Powlison

Narrator: Jim Seybert

Format: Unabridged

Length: 10:10:10

Language: English

Release date: 05-04-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Religion & Spirituality, Self Development, Health & Wellness, Counseling & Inspirational

Summary:

Something that matters to you just isn't right. First you see the problem, then you feel it. It starts with a rush of adrenaline and often a rush of words, but it ends with an overwhelming sense of irritation that impacts how we talk to those we live and work with. We know anger affects us negatively, but we don't know any other way to respond when life goes wrong.

In this groundbreaking book David Powlison undertakes an in-depth exploration of the roots of anger, moral judgment, and righteous response by looking in a surprising place: God's own anger. Powlison reminds us that God gets angry too. He sees things in this world that aren't right and he wants justice too. But God's anger doesn't devolve into manipulation or trying to control others to get his own way. Instead his anger is good and redemptive. It causes him to step into our world to make wrongs right, sending his own Son to die so that we can be reconciled. He is both our model for change and our power to change.

Good and Angry sets listeners on a path toward a faithful and fruitful expression of anger. Powlison offers practical help for people who struggle with irritation, complaining, or bitterness and gives guidance for how to respond constructively when life goes wrong. You, your family, and your friends will all be glad that you listened to this book.

Title: Monkey Boy: A Novel

Author: Francisco Goldman

Narrator: Robert Fass

Format: Unabridged

Length: 12:12:07

Language: English

Release date: 05-04-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Fiction & Literature, Historical Fiction, Literary Fiction, Coming of Age, Family Life

Summary:

Our narrator, Francisco Goldberg, has been living and working in Mexico City as a journalist for over a decade, but has recently returned to New York City in hopes of 'going home again.' It's been five years since the end of his last relationship and he is falling in love again. Soon he is beckoned back to Boston by the high school girlfriend who was witness to his greatest youthful humiliations, and his mother, Yolanda, around whom his story orbits like a dark star. Backdropping this five day trip to his childhood home is the specter of Frank's recently deceased father, Bert, an immigrant from Ukraine, volcanically tempered, pathologically abusive, yet also at times infuriatingly endearing; as well as the high school bullies who gave him the moniker 'monkey boy' and his estranged, larger-than-life sister, Lexi.

Told in an open, irresistibly funny and passionate voice, this extraordinary portrait of growing up outside the dominant culture unearths the hidden cruelties in a predominantly white, working-class Boston suburb where Francisco-a.k.a. Paco, aka Frankie Gee-came of age. A crowning achievement from one of the most important American voices in the last forty years.

Title: Built to Lose: How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed the League Forever

Author: Jake Fischer

Narrator: Kyle Tait

Format: Unabridged

Length: 11:34:57

Language: English

Release date: 05-04-21

Publisher: Tantor Media

Genres: Sports & Recreation, Other, Basketball

Summary:

A singular, transcendent talent can change the fortunes of a basketball franchise faster than in any other sport. For NBA teams, three avenues exist for acquiring those pivotal superstars: signing players in free agency, adding them via trade, or hand-selecting them through the draft. One only has to look toward the outright fanfare surrounding recent top pick Zion Williamson to recognize that it's the pursuit of the latter which has defined and forever altered the NBA in its current era. It's a story that weaves its way behind closed doors to reveal intricate machinations normally hidden from public view. Backed by extensive reporting and hundreds of interviews with top players, coaches, and executives, Jake Fischer chronicles secret pre-draft workouts, feuding between player agents and executives, surprising trade negotiations, interpersonal conflict within rosters, organizational power struggles, and the missteps behind infamous public relations fiascos, making for a fascinating and unmissable insider's look at the NBA.

Summary:

I am a weed.

Unloved by my abusive, alcoholic dad. Unwanted by my classmates. Unnoticed by everyone else.

But I'd suffer anything to give my kid sister a better life-the minute I turn eighteen, I'm getting us the hell out of here. And some hot stranger telling me I am the key to stopping a war between Heaven and Hell isn't going to change that.

Let the world crumble and burn, for all I care.

Draven is relentless, though. And very much a liar. Every time his sexy lips are moving, I can see it-in the dip of his head, the grit of his jaw-even if my heart begs me to ignore the signs. So what does he want?

I need to figure it out fast, because now everyone is gunning for me. And damn if I don't want to show them what happens when you let weeds thrive in the cracks of the pavement . . .

We can grow powerful enough to shatter the whole foundation.
