    William Wymark Jacobs (1863-1943) was an English author of short stories and novels. His most popular works in the early part of the last century were his humorous tales set around the docks of Wapping and in the taproom of the infamous Cauliflower tavern. Many of his stories were written in a Cockney vernacular and were keenly observant of character. 'The Rival Beauties' is one of the night watchman's most unlikely tales. He narrates the time when his ship came across a giant sea-serpent and they attempted to lure it with them to New York. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Cathy Dobson.

    In 1987, Dr. Montgomery delivered the annual Pascal Lectures at the University of Waterloo. In clear, precise, and easy-to-understand language, he details why the inter-relationship between human rights and Christian theology is so critical. He explains why the justification for human rights can be founded only on a revelation that transcends human knowledge. He then provides reasons why Christians, on the basis of that revelation, should be keenly interested and active in human rights issues. These lectures are based on Dr. Montgomery's book, Human Rights and Human Dignity (Canadian Institute for Law, Theology and Public Policy, 1995). Language: English. Narrator: Dr. John Warwick Montgomery. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/hove/002043/bk_hove_002043_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    Joe Allston, the retired literary agent in Stegner’s National Book Award-winning novel The Spectator Bird, returns in this disquieting and keenly observed novel. Scarred by the senseless death of their son and baffled by the engulfing chaos of the 1960s, Allston and his wife, Ruth, have left the coast for a California retreat. And although their new home looks like Eden, it also has its serpents: Jim Peck, a messianic exponent of drugs, yoga, and sex, and Marian Catlin, an attractive young woman whose otherwordly innocence is far more appealing—and far more dangerous. ungekürzt.
