Publisher's Summary:

Vor hunderten Jahren spalteten sich ehemals menschliche Sklavensoldaten von der Erde ab, befreiten sich vom Joch ihrer Herren und erklärten den roten Planeten zu ihrer Heimat. Fortan nannten sie sich Marsianer. Während die Menschheit ihrem Niedergang entgegensteuerte, blühten die Marsianer allerorten im Sonnensystem auf. Gleichzeitig wurde es ein geradezu unausgesprochenes marsianisches Gesetz, die Erde zu meiden, nur um sie aus der Ferne misstrauisch im Auge zu behalten. Einige Abenteurer jedoch setzen sich störrisch und aufmüpfig über derlei Regeln hinweg. Einer dieser Abenteurer ist der Marsianer Kootenai Brown, Spitzname BÄR. Er und sein robotischer Freund JIMINY erreichen nach monatelanger Reise endlich die völlig desolate Erde. Sie haben einen Auftrag angenommen, der sie zu einer menschlichen Siedlung auf der Oberfläche führt, den DRACHENZÄHNEN. Kurz nach ihrer Ankunft bemerken sie Nomaden, die einen Flüchtigen über eine Sandwüste jagen. Obwohl JIMINY ihm abrät, weil es ihrem Auftrag zuwider läuft, kann BÄR nicht anders: Er muss sich einmischen und dem Flüchtling helfen... Der Beginn eines irdischen Abenteuers, in dessen Verlauf auf BÄR und JIMINY neue Freunde und neue Feinde warten. Und ein folgenschweres Geheimnis. SprecherInnen: - Thomas Balou Martin (Erzähler des Romans) - Juliane Ahlemeier (Stimme des tonokausal-Intros) Text, Regie, Schnitt: Michael Nolden. Eine Produktion von tonokausal: Michael Nolden.

Publisher's Summary:

A study of Albert Camus' life and works which draws together both dramatisations of his novels and documentaries about his life. One of postwar France’s most influential writers, Albert Camus was fêted for his masterful exploration of the absurdity of the human condition. Included here are adaptations of his three iconic existential novels – The Plague, The Outsider and The Fall – alongside four bonus pieces shining a light on the man and his work. La Peste – When plague strikes a French port on the Algerian coast in the late 1940s, the devastating effects are seen through the eyes of three characters: the town doctor, a Parisian journalist, and a mystery man seeking peace… The Outsider – Camus’ masterpiece introduces us to Meursault, a Frenchman living in Algiers, who refuses to pretend and is prepared to face the universe’s indifference alone. The Fall – A former Parisian lawyer, now an Amsterdam barfly, meets a compatriot and recounts his life story – confessing his guilt, his hypocrisy, and the hope that, when judged, he be judged innocent. Carnets – Compiled from the literary journal that Camus kept from 1935 until his death in 1960, this 3-part series features his reflections on love, death, art and loneliness, as well as overheard conversations and notes on future works. Read by John Shrapnel. The Insider – Leila Aboulela's powerful drama takes two key Arab characters from The Outsider – left unnamed and unspeaking by Camus – and reimagines their lives, giving them a voice and an identity. Albert Camus: Inside the Outsider – With contributions from friends, family and fellow writers, and archive readings by Camus himself, this piece uncovers the real Camus behind the public face, exploring his early life, his friendship with Sartre, his relationships with women and his mysterious death. Centurions: Albert Camus: The Outsider – Biographer Olivier Todd and critic Ray Davison discuss the profound impact of Camus’ pioneering novel on European thought and literature. Featuring Ronald Pickup, John Shrapnel, Clive Merrison, Alex Lanepikun, Paul Scofield, Souad Faress, Sirine Saba, Dhaffer L'Abidine and Amir El-Masry.

Title: Next Stop

Author: Benjamin Resnick

Narrator: Gilli Messer

Format: Unabridged Audiobook

Length: 8 hours 6 minutes

Release date: September 10, 2024

Genres: Apocalyptic & Dystopian

Publisher's Summary:

For readers of Leave the World Behind and Exit West, an astonishingly resonant novel that explores the precariousness of Jewish American life through one family after a black hole consumes the State of Israel and similar strange events occur in major cities around the world, ushering in a time of chaos as well as miracles. When a black hole suddenly consumes Israel and as similar anomalies spread across the globe, a conspiracy takes hold: will the holes swallow the Jews, or will they swallow the earth? Against a backdrop of antisemitic paranoia, restrictions on Jewish life, and spasms of violence, Ethan and Ella, Jewish citizens of a nameless American city, meet and fall in love. Ella, a photojournalist, documents the changes in daily life, particularly among the city’s Jewish residents. Some Jews, feeling inexplicably drawn to the unusual events, go underground to an abandoned subway system that seems to connect the entire world. Others leave for the south, forming militias and stockpiling weapons. But most, like Ethan, Ella, and her young son Michael, stay and try to make their way amid the hostility and small joys of the ever-changing landscape. But then thousands of commercial planes are sucked from the sky. Air travel stops. Borders close. Refugees pour into the capital. Eventually all Jews in the city are forced to relocate to the Pale, an area sandwiched between a park and a river. There, under the watchful eye of border guards, drones, and robotic dogs, they form a fragile new society. Suspenseful, thought-provoking, and brilliantly conceived, Next Stop is an enthralling novel that explores the fault lines between our collective, national, and individual memories and how our deepest bonds can be unexpectedly reshaped in moments of crisis.

David Wawrigg ist zurück gekehrt, nach jahrzenhntelangem Umherirren in einer apokalyptischen Welt zurück gekehrt an den Ort, an dem die Geschichte ihren Anfang nahm.

In einer Zeit eskalierender Spannungen zwischen den großen Machtblöcken findet Mirror zusehends wachsendes Interesse bei einer kleinen, aber sehr effektiven und zu allem entschlossenen Gruppierung von Fanatikern, die selbst kaum weniger gefährlich sind als der Spiegel.
