Title: What Maisie Knew

Author: Henry James

Narrator: Alice Johnson

Format: Unabridged

Length: 8 hrs and 45 mins

Language: English

Release date: 07-24-17

Publisher: Audioliterature

Publisher's Summary:

After her parents' bitter and brutal divorce, young Maisie Farange finds herself pushed back and forth by her selfish mother, Ida, and her vain father, Beale, who value her only as a tool for provoking one another.

And when both parents move on and remarry, Maisie - solitary, observant and wise beyond her years - is drawn into a messy and very adult world of lies and betrayal; until she is finally forced to choose her own way of independent living.

A deeply serious and unsettling work from a child's perspective, about a child's and all children's intrinsic value as such - innocent and vulnerable. Another great work by a literary master!

Publisher's Summary:

"The Fifth Queen" trilogy is a series of connected historical novels by English novelist Ford Madox Ford. It consists of three novels: "The Fifth Queen; And How She Came to Court" (1906), "Privy Seal" (1907) and "The Fifth Queen Crowned" (1908), which present a fictionalized account of Katharine Howard's arrival at the Court of Henry VIII, her eventual marriage to the king, and her death. The "Fifth Queen" trilogy has an omniscient narrator.

Katharine Howard is introduced in the first book as a devout Roman Catholic, impoverished, young noblewoman escorted by her fiery cousin Thomas Culpeper. By accident, she comes to the attention of the king, in a minor way at first, is helped to a position as a lady in waiting for the then bastard Lady Mary, Henry's eldest daughter, by her old Latin tutor Nicholas Udal, a spy for Thomas Cromwell. As Katharine becomes involved with the many calculating, competing, and spying members of Henry VIII's Court, she gradually rises, almost against her will, in Court.

Titre: Les carnets du sous-sol

Auteur: Fédor Dostoïevski

Narrateur: Hubert Félix Thiéfaine

Format: Unabridged

Durée: 5 hrs and 10 mins

Langue: Français

Date de publication: 06-23-17

Éditeur: Frémeaux & Associés

Genres: Classics, World Literature

Résumé de l'éditeur:

Premier des romanciers modernes, Fiodor Dostoïevski est parmi les plus grands écrivains russes du XIXe siècle. Dans Les carnets du sous-sol, il fait le récit d'un homme reclus qui depuis son sous-sol observe le monde en contre-plongée. Le narrateur crache ses mots avec aigreur, son refus obstiné du bonheur, déverse ses angoisses et sa haine envers l'humanité. Écrit en 1864, on y retrouve un condensé de la fureur barbare qui fait l'œuvre de l'auteur et les bases des grands romans à venir : Crime et châtiment, Le joueur, ou Les frères Karamazov.

Produit par Mâya Heuse des Éditions Thélème, Hubert Félix Thiéfaine, avec sa diction émue et mordante, à la fois constante et solennelle, arrive à transmettre à l'auditeur toute la mélancolie, la sincérité et la violence du roman. Il met à nu toute la poésie de cette œuvre que l'on se prêterait à qualifier de proto-punk, par sa désillusion, sa vision désenchantée du monde et qui comme l'indiquait l'auteur, se voulait le récit "d'une génération en survie".

Title: The Call of the Wild

Author: Jack London

Narrator: Mark F. Smith

Format: Unabridged

Length: 3 hrs and 23 mins

Language: English

Release date: 04-11-17

Publisher: SAGA Egmont

Ratings: 4.5 of 5 out of 2 votes

Genres: Classics, World Literature

Publisher's Summary:

The story takes place in the extreme conditions of the Yukon during the 19th century Klondike Gold Rush, where strong sled dogs were in high demand. After Buck, a domesticated dog, is snatched from a pastoral ranch in California, he is sold into a brutal life as a sled dog. The novella details Buck's struggle to adjust and survive the cruel treatment he receives from humans, other dogs, and nature. He eventually sheds the veneer of civilization altogether and instead relies on primordial instincts and the lessons he has learned to become a respected and feared leader in the wild.

"The Call of the Wild" is London's most popular work and is considered the masterpiece of his so called "early period". The novella is often classified as children's literature because of its animal protagonist, but the maturity of its subject matter makes it valuable for older audiences as well. Major themes include survival of the fittest, civilization versus nature, and fate versus free will.

Titre: La dame au petit chien suivi de La Fiancée

Auteur: Anton Tchekhov

Narrateur: Julie Debazac

Format: Unabridged

Durée: 1 hr and 40 mins

Langue: Français

Date de publication: 04-04-17

Éditeur: des femmes

Evaluation: 5 sur 5 sur 1 votes

Genres: Classics, World Literature

Résumé de l'éditeur:

La dame au petit chien promène son ennui et son chien sur la digue d'une station balnéaire de la mer Noire. Un homme solitaire la remarque, l'aime, mais ne peut triompher plus tard de toutes les barrières qui se dressent sur le chemin de leur bonheur. De toutes les nouvelles écrites par Tchekhov, La dame au petit chien est l'une des plus célèbres.

Dans La fiancée, une jeune femme promise à un homme qu'elle n'aime pas, s'éprend d'un autre et décide, avec l'aide de ce dernier, de fuir sa famille pour étudier à Saint-Pétersbourg, sans toutefois avouer son amour à l'homme qu'elle aime. Le temps passe, elle le revoit après ses examens et se rend compte que tout a changé ; et lorsqu'elle reçoit un télégramme lui annonçant sa mort, elle découvre qu'elle est libre, que plus rien ne la retient. Selon Tchekhov, "une nouvelle qui n'a pas de femmes, c'est une machine sans vapeur." L'héroïne par excellence est pour lui la femme incomprise, qui rêve d'une autre vie...

Titel: Der Ekel

Autor:: Jean-Paul Sartre

Erzähler: Dietmar Schönherr

Format: Unabridged

Spieldauer: 8 hrs and 57 mins

Sprache: Deutsch

Veröffentlichungsdatum: 03-17-17

Herausgeber: Der Audio Verlag

Kategorien: Classics, World Literature

Zusammenfassung des Herausgebers:

Von einem Moment zum anderen verändert sich das Leben des Einzelgängers Antoine Roquentin radikal: Nichts ist mehr selbstverständlich, alles wird ihm zur Qual. Sämtliche Menschen und Gegenstände um ihn herum lösen einen unbestimmten Ekel in ihm aus. Um eine Erklärung dafür zu finden, beginnt er, sich minutiös zu beobachten. Und schließlich wird ihm klar: Es ist die Existenz an sich und die Zufälligkeit des Seins, die seinen Ekel verursachen.

Jean-Paul Sartre schrieb mit diesem Werk den ersten und bedeutsamsten Roman des Existentialismus. Dietmar Schönherr liest eindrucksvoll das fiktive Tagebuch, das den Autor über Nacht berühmt machte.
