London Blues , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 646min
The chance discovery of a 30-year-old blue movie leads back to the film's maker, Tim Purdom, and the London of the late fifties and early sixties. Purdom was a pioneer of the B&W British porno film and a figure on the periphery of the Profumo sex scandal. He directed eight films... but who was directing him and what was their hidden agenda? And where is Tim now? London Blues explicitly and unremittingly details the hidden world of Soho vice and London's demi-monde at the time when the grey 1950s were giving way to the 'swingin' sixties'. It is a dramatic and compelling venture into the secret history of our time - a provocative and totally original novel. Anthony Frewin was born in London and lives in Hertfordshire. He was assistant film director to Stanley Kubrick for over 20 years. He has written three novels, London Blues, Sixty-Three Closure and Scorpian Rising. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Come miele e cannella (eBook, ePUB)
Virginia è una ragazza come tante, o forse no. Di sicuro ancora non sa chi è davvero. Ha costruito attorno a sé delle barriere per non farsi toccare più dal dolore, che conosce fin troppo bene. Ironica, pungente, forse un po' troppo critica, ma senza dubbio goliardica e simpatica. L'amore la coglie all'improvviso quando conosce Lorenzo, un manager di successo, troppo bello e troppo affascinante. Ma lei non è abituata al lieto fine e non crede più che esista un Principe Azzurro pronto a salvarla. Un romanzo intenso, con tutti i colori della passione e i sapori autentici dell'Amore con la A maiuscola. Virginia e il suo timido mondo, tana perfetta dove nascondere i suoi difetti, d'un tratto spalancato dal dolce sapore del miele e dal tenace profumo della cannella.- Shop: buecher

In Their Own Words: A History in Letters , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 441min
The way we communicate has changed. Today many of our interactions are digital, but until recently writing letters was the norm. Drawing from over 100 miles of records held at the UK's official government archive, The National Archives at Kew, this collection of letters, postcards and telegrams will shine a spotlight on a range of significant historical moments and occurrences, recapturing a lost world in which correspondence was king. The audiobook includes letters from Karl Marx, requesting UK citizenship; an anonymous writer purporting to be Jack the Ripper; Josef Kramer, the commandant of Bergen Belsen; Winston Churchill to President Roosevelt, requesting US support against Hitler; Clement Atlee to Harry S Truman following Hiroshima; the spies Burgess and Maclean; as well as the 'real Charlotte Gray' spy, Christine Granville, amongst others. Topics covered include the Monteagle letter that warned about the Gunpowder plot, letters from the Wright brothers trying to get the War Office to fund their aeronautical research, a dispatch on the murder of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Christine Keeler's Russian-British love triangle that begat the Profumo affair, US disapproval of British trade with Cuba, a letter reporting on the first day of the trial of Nelson Mandela, and the anonymous letter that framed the Krays. The audiobook features approximately 80 letters, each with a 600-word essay, and a 3,000-word introduction. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Bloody History of London (MP3-Download)
"When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life; for there is in London all that life can afford." - Samuel Johnson From plagues and poverty to financial scandals, serial killers to public executions, mad monarchs to barbaric mental asylums, Bloody History of London reaches deeply into the city's long history and ranges widely across the social, political and cultural life of the metropolis. Founded by the Romans and attacked by the Vikings, London grew to become an immense trading city. Included here are tales of medieval torture in the Tower, burnings at the stake during the Reformation and Counter-Reformation, the merry debauchery of the Restoration and the market crash of the South Sea Bubble. From political skullduggery among the Tudors to the Cold War Profumo scandal and assassination of Georgy Markov, the book is a lively account across almost 2,000 years of London history. Immensely entertaining, Bloody History of London is an engaging and highly informative exploration of the highlights of London lowlife and the depravities of London's high life.- Shop: buecher
