Gelesen von Gert HeidenreichMit Omid Paul Eftekhari, Marit Beyer, Johannes Steck, Irina Roknic, Cosima Baumer und Elke BaderMusik von Tomasz EdwardsSpecial Guest: Mops Greta als Welsh Corgi Pembroke der QueenWie ein Fächer entfaltet sich ein ganzes Jahrhundert in diesem ebenso umfangreichen wie informativen und zugleich amüsanten Hörbuch. Mit verteilten Sprechrollen, Musik und Sounddesign bietet es ein spannendes und abwechslungsreiches Zeitdokument, in dem auch der Vater Queen Elizabeths, König George VI., und die Queen selbst im Originalton zu Wort kommen. Im Fokus der Erzählung steht Queen Elizabeth II. als Mensch, als Monarchin und als Institution.Die mit vielen Details gespickte Biografie nimmt den Zuhörer mit auf eine spannende Reise durch das bewegte vergangene Jahrhundert bis heute. Von der Regierung des Grossvaters, George V., während des ersten Weltkrieges, dem Untergang des Britischen Empires, der Katastrophe des zweiten Weltkrieges und der Regierung des Vaters, George VI., über die Suez-Krise in den 50er Jahren, dem Phänomen der Beatlemania und der "British Invasion" in den 60er Jahren, der Wirtschaftskrise und den Gewerkschaftsstreiks in den 70er Jahren, über die Ära Thatchers und den Falkland-Krieg, den Tod Prinzessin Dianas, den Terroranschlägen zu Beginn des neuen Jahrtausends, bis aktuell den Geschehnissen um Brexit, "Megxit" und Corona spannt sich der Erzählbogen.Fünf Generationen des Hauses Windsor erleben die Geschicke des einst weltumspannenden Britischen Empire über das Commonwealth bis ins 21. Jahrhundert inmitten der Zentren der Macht. Zwischen Tradition und Wandel verkörpert Queen Elizabeth II. dabei stets eine verlässliche und integre Konstante trotz wiederkehrender eigener familiärer Zwiste und inmitten politischer, sozialer und wirtschaftlicher Turbulenzen und Unsicherheiten.Das Hörbuch wurde mit eigens komponierter Musik von Tomasz Edwards unterlegt, bekannte englische Stücke zur Krönung, zu Hochzeiten und anderen Feierlichkeiten steuerte das Klassik-Label Chandos bei.Mit seiner unverkennbar sonoren und facettenreichen Stimme erzählt Gert Heidenreich die Lebensgeschichte Queen Elizabeths - mal humorvoll, mal ironisch, mal ernst, doch immer mit der ihm eigenen souveränen Leichtigkeit. Gert Heidenreich zur Seite stehen Omid Eftekhari, der sowohl als Churchill-Imitator als auch als King George V. oder Edward VIII. und weiteren Protagonisten den Figuren Leben einhaucht, Irina Roknic, die spielerisch die mädchenhafte Stimme der kleinen Prinzessin Elizabeth wiedergibt, Marit Beyer, die mit ihrer Stimme die Würde und Klarheit der älteren Queen Elizabeth unterstreicht, Johannes Steck, der gekonnt das Alphatier der Royals, Prinz Philip, in Szene setzt, doch ebenso treffend den sensiblen und intellektuellen Prinz Charles mimt. In weiteren Rollen sind auch Cosima Baumer als Prinzessin Diana und als Queen Mum, Elke Bader und sogar das Verlags-Maskottchen, Mops Greta, zu hören.Ein umfangreiches Booklet von 32 Seiten listet zur...

40th anniversary edition of the bestselling modern classic: Milan Kundera's iconic novel of love and politics in communist Czechoslovakia. 'Shamelessly clever ... Exhilaratingly subversive and funny.' Independent 'A modern classic ... As relevant now as when it was first published. ' John Banville A young woman is in love with a successful surgeon: a man torn between his love for her and his womanising. His mistress, a free-spirited artist, lives her life as a series of betrayals, while her other lover stands to lose everything because of his noble qualities. In a world where lives are shaped by choices and events, and everything occurs but once, existence seems to lose its substance and weight - and we feel 'the unbearable lightness of being'. Kundera's classic provoked a whole generation, encompassing passion and philosophy, body and soul, the Prague Spring and modern America, political acts and private desires, comedy and tragedy - in fact, all of human existence. What readers are saying: 'Some books change your mind, some change your heart, the very best change your whole world ... A mighty piece of work, that will shape your life forever.' 'One of the best books I've ever read ... A book about love and life, full of surprises. Beautiful.' 'This book is going to change your life ... It definitely leaves you with a hangover after you're done reading.' 'Kundera writes about love as if in a trance so the beauty of it is enchanting and dreamy ... Will stay with you.'

“…this heartbreaking love story about two funny, fragile, and wildly damaged high school kids named Violet and Finch is worth reading. Niven is a skillful storyteller who never patronizes her characters – or her audience.” — Entertainment Weekly “Many teen novels touch on similar themes, but few do it so memorably.” — Kirkus Reviews, starred review "In her YA debut, adult author Niven creates a romance so fresh and funny. . . The journey to, through, and past tragedy is romantic and heartbreaking, as characters and readers confront darkness, joy, and the possibilities—and limits—of love in the face of mental illness.” —Publishers Weekly, starred review “The writing in this heartrending novel is fluid, despite the difficult topics… Finch in particular will linger in readers’ minds long after the last page is turned.” —School Library Journal, starred review "Ultimately, the book, with narration that alternates between Finch and Violet, becomes Violet’s story of survival and recovery, affirming the value of loving deeply, grieving openly, and carrying your light forward." — The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books “Have The Fault in Our Stars withdrawal? Pick up this heartrending novel about a girl who vows to live with purpose after bonding with a boy who plans to end his own life.” — SELF Magazine "It’s touching, vibrant, and an impressively honest depiction of depression." — BuzzFeed A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year A Miami Herald Best Books for Children GoodReads Choice Awards Young Adult Fiction Category Winner A TIME Top Young Adult Book of the Year A NPR Guide to Great Reads Book

A funny, playful salute to the power and importance of books from New York Times best-selling author Carmen Agra Deedy. When Sunrise Elementary School advertised for a thick-skinned librarian with a burning love of books, Miss Lotta Scales knew she was perfect for the job. Who could guard books better than a REAL dragon? Yet when she won't let any of the children take a book from the shelves, the teachers form a delegation. Not even sweet Miss Lemon can convince Miss Lotta Scales that "the library belongs to the children." Fortunately, when nearsighted Molly Brickmeyer stumbles onto a copy of Snuff the Magic Dragon and reads the tale out loud, her storytelling beckons the children back to the library and brings them face to face with the Library Dragon. Can an open book temper the flames of the school's hotheaded librarian? Filled with clever dragon puns, this is an entertaining story, now available in an audio edition, about the power and importance of books for both children and adults.

“Spectacular.”—NPR • “Uproariously funny.”—The Boston Globe • “An artistic triumph.”—San Francisco Chronicle • “A novel in which comedy and pathos are exquisitely balanced.”—The Washington Post • “Shteyngart’s best book.”—The Seattle Times The bestselling author of Super Sad True Love Story returns with a biting, brilliant, emotionally resonant novel very much of our times. NAMED ONE OF THE TEN BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE AND MAUREEN CORRIGAN, NPR’S FRESH AIR AND NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY The New York Times Book Review • NPR • The Washington Post • O: The Oprah Magazine • Mother Jones • Glamour • Library Journal • Kirkus Reviews • Newsday • Pamela Paul, KQED • Financial Times • The Globe and Mail Narcissistic, hilariously self-deluded, and divorced from the real world as most of us know it, hedge-fund manager Barry Cohen oversees $2.4 billion in assets. Deeply stressed by an SEC investigation and by his three-year-old son’s diagnosis of autism, he flees New York on a Greyhound bus in search of a simpler, more romantic life with his old college sweetheart. Meanwhile, his super-smart wife, Seema—a driven first-generation American who craved the picture-perfect life that comes with wealth—has her own demons to face. How these two flawed characters navigate the Shteyngartian chaos of their own making is at the heart of this piercing exploration of the 0.1 Percent, a poignant tale of familial longing and an unsentimental ode to what really makes America great. LONGLISTED FOR THE CARNEGIE MEDAL FOR EXCELLENCE IN FICTION “The fuel and oxygen of immigrant literature—movement; exile, nostalgia, cultural disorientation—are what fire the pistons of this trenchant and panoramic novel. . . . [It is] a novel so pungent, so frisky and so intent on probing the dissonances and delusions—both individual and collective—that grip this strange land getting stranger.” —The New York Times Book Review “Shteyngart; perhaps more than any American writer of his generation, is a natural. He is light, stinging, insolent and melancholy. . . . The wit and the immigrant’s sense of heartbreak—he was born in Russia—just seem to pour from him. The idea of riding along behind Shteyngart as he glides across America in the early age of Trump is a propitious one. He doesn’t disappoint.” —The New York Times

Eccentric high fashion meets buttoned-up Madison Avenue in Danielle Steel's captivating tale of two perfect-for-each-other people from two wildly different worlds. In a fresh, funny look at what happens when a woman who has everything finally meets her match, Danielle Steel proves that, in life and love, it's never too late for a second chance. As editor-in-chief of New York's leading fashion magazine, Fiona Monaghan lived a life as hectic and high-toned as the fashion world itself, jetting back and forth between her stylish Manhattan brownstone and the couture shows of Europe. With closets stuffed with Fendi, a snoring bulldog named Sir Winston sharing her bed, and a houseman who favors gold lame and borrows her shoes, Fiona was utterly content with her life. Until the sweltering June day John Anderson strolled into her office. After a dinner date left them both wanting more, Fiona impulsively invited John to the Paris couture shows. And in the most romantic city in the world, somewhere between the magic of the runway and the stroll along the Seine, Fiona let this man into her heart. A widower with two daughters, John Anderson was nearly Fiona's opposite in every way. As conservative as she was freewheeling, John was both amused and appalled by Fiona's world of high-strung designers, anorexic models, and high-heeled housemen. But within weeks of their return to New York, John was making friends with Sir Winston--and Fiona was making room in her closets. It didn't take long for the dominoes to start falling. First, John introduced Fiona to his daughters, their bloodthirsty Pekingese, and a snarling housekeeper straight out of Hitchcock's Rebecca. It was hate at first sight.Then, after a dinner party with John's biggest client goes disastrously awry, Fiona and John's relationship began to unravel with alarming speed. What happens next will set Fiona on a journey filled with pain and revelation, awakening and change....For when she returns to P

Now an HBO series starring Kathryn Hahn! “Light; zingy, and laugh-out-loud funny” (People), the New York Times bestselling novel about sex, love, and identity as seen through the eyes of a middle-aged woman and her college freshman son. A forty-six-year-old divorcee whose beloved only child has just left for college, Eve Fletcher is struggling to adjust to her empty nest. One night she receives a text from an anonymous number that says, “ U R my MILF!” Over the months that follow, that message comes to obsess Eve. While leading her all-too-placid life—serving as Executive Director of the local senior center and taking a community college course on Gender and Society—Eve can’t curtail her own interest in a porn website that features the erotic exploits of ordinary, middle-aged women like herself. Before long, Eve’s online fixations begin to spill over into real life, revealing new romantic possibilities that threaten to upend her quiet suburban existence. Meanwhile, miles away at the state college, Eve’s son Brendan—a jock and aspiring frat boy—discovers that his new campus isn’t nearly as welcoming to his hard-partying lifestyle as he had imagined. Only a few weeks into his freshman year, Brendan is floundering in a college environment that challenges his white-dude privilege and shames him for his outmoded, chauvinistic ideas of sex. As the New England autumn turns cold, both mother and son find themselves enmeshed in morally fraught situations that come to a head on one fateful November night. “The sweetest and most charming novel about pornography addiction and the harrowing issues of sexual consent that you will probably ever read” ( The New York Times Book Review), Mrs. Fletcher is a timeless examination of sexuality, identity, parenthood, and the big clarifying mistakes people can make when they’re no longer sure of who they are or where they belong. “Tom Perrotta’s latest might just be his best” (NPR).
