At Wedding and Wakes, Hörbuch, Digital, 159min
More than any other writer, Alice McDermott exposes the vein of poetry, of profound joy and pain that transforms everyday experience into the heroic and universal. At Weddings and Wakes tells the bittersweet, lovable, human story of an Irish-Catholic family on Long Island as seen through the eyes of two sisters and a brother. Weekly visits to Brooklyn usher the children into an airless world of memory, recrimination and eternal repartee. In the daily routines of family, they witness the ebb and flow of drama and melodrama, the cycles of dissatisfaction and recurring affection. Language: English. Narrator: Alice McDermott.

Remembering... Kenneth Williams, Hörbuch, Digital, 129min
Wonderful highlights of Kenneth Williams’ career in this classic compilation. For more than 30 years, Kenneth Williams kept the nation in stitches with his outrageous gallery of comic creations and an effortlessly brilliant barrage of repartee and innuendo on radio and television. In Beyond Our Ken and Round the Horne, Kenneth Williams brought us the popular characters of Rambling Syd Rumpo, J. Peasemold Gruntfuttock, and Sandy (of Julian & Sandy). Remembering... Kenneth Williams wouldn’t be complete without his legendary contributions to Hancock’s Half Hour and Just a Minute. And there’s more: songs, sketches, clips from Parkinson, Just Williams, and Williams himself reading from his witty autobiography. Also featured are Clement Freud, John Betjeman, and Simon Hoggart. It’s a lifetime’s worth of laughter-making in one recording. It’s Kenneth at his campest. Language: English. Narrator: Kenneth Williams.

He Done Her Wrong: Toby Peters, Book 8 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 424min
You can't trust a man who's dressed as Mae West, especially not in Mae West's house. One of Hollywood's earliest sex symbols, the whip-smart blonde's star has fallen since the Hays Code cracked down on the racy repartee that made her famous. Her latest project is a thinly veiled autobiographical novel, whose only copy is stolen just after she finishes her first draft. Tonight she's having a Mae West party, with every guest a man dressed as her. The thief is among those in drag, and P.I. Toby Peters has come to tear off his wig. He's there as a favor to his brother, a brutal cop who had a fling with West when she first moved to Hollywood. But this is more than a theft. The crook wants to destroy Mae West, and he has murder on his mind. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Stephen Bowlby.

The Immortal: How Far Would You Go to Save the One You Love? , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 163min
This book is my intellectual repartee to Dmitry Itskov's stated goal to create a human avatar by the year 2045. In my estimation, it is a good thing that we as human beings are mortal. When a Spartan wished to praise another, he would wish upon him a glorious death in defense of his family and country. When a Spartan wished to insult another, he would echo the immortal words of King Leonidas to Ephialtes: "May you live forever." This book asks two questions: How far would you go to save the one you love, and could you live with the consequences? Love can make us do crazy things. Things we would never believe ourselves capable of doing. Yet the impossible becomes merely improbable when there is no choice. This story brings to the fore how our society should view attempts to extend human life indefinitely. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Shannon Cooper Harris.
