    Old Bell Falls , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 122min
    Old Bell Falls is a tale set in a small town in another time, when life's tasks might have been more forthright, but people behaved just about the way they do now. Two founding families, living together in industry, harmony, and friendship, are divided in a season of despair, when grief turns warm hearts cold. As time passes neighbor judges neighbor, in a feud whose source has been forgotten. Foolish traditions pass down the generations, from parents to children, who learn to be heedlessly cruel. Until relentless bullying of an innocent boy leads to tragedy. And then, in one breathtaking moment of strength, courage, and faith, they all remember who they really are. ungekürzt.

    Fathers and Sons , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 488min
    One of the most controversial Russian novels ever written, Fathers and Sons dramatizes the volcanic social conflicts that divided Russia just before the revolution, pitting peasants against masters, traditionalists against intellectuals, and fathers against sons. It is also a timeless depiction of the ongoing clash between generations. When a young graduate returns home, he is accompanied—much to his father's and uncle's discomfort—by a strange friend who does not acknowledge any authority and does not accept any principle on faith. Bazarov is a nihilist, representing the new class of young radical intelligentsia that would come to overthrow the Russian aristocracy and its values. Uncouth and forthright in his opinions, Turgenev’s hero is nonetheless susceptible to love and, by that fact, doomed to unhappiness. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Anthony Heald.
