A Little Princess , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 437min
With her wonderful storytelling abilities and endless array of gorgeous clothes and toys, little Sara Crewe seems to everyone at her boarding school like the luckiest girl in the world - a 'little princess'. no less. But one day disaster strikes, and she is moved into an attic and turned overnight into a drudge. All but a little cluster of her most loyal friends turn their backs upon her. Constantly cold, with barely enough to eat, and reduced to wearing the outgrown tatters of her former wardrobe, how will she cope? Will she remain a true princess - a girl capable fun, kindness and unselfishness even in misfortune? Above all, does what Sara calls 'The Magic' truly exist? Created over a century ago, A Little Princess is still of contemporary relevance, being essentially a story of childhood and survival. Along the years it has delighted and moved by turn adults and children alike. In 2012 it was ranked number 56 among all-time children's novels in a survey published by School Library Journal, a monthly with a primarily US audience. Finally, I am sure Frances Hodgson Burnett would not have found it amiss to mention here that Zada, the studio cat who has listened to every word of this book and quietly overseen its editing, gave birth to three kittens at the very same time that this edition was completed. ungekürzt.

On the Ceiling (BBC Radio 4: Saturday Play), Hörbuch, Digital, 57min
A BBC Radio 4 play by Nigel Planer about some of the people involved in the decoration of the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. On the Ceiling was originally broadcast as the Afternoon Play on 7 February 2009 and repeated on 11 December 2010. High up on the wooden scaffolding tower of the Sistine Chapel, two fresco plasterers get on with the day’s work preparing the ceiling for their boss, Michelangelo, who has not bothered to turn up for work again. As they do so, they bemoan the uselessness of the great master. Pope Julius and Cardinal Alidosi visit the chapel to inspect the progress of their commission. They are never very impressed, and the Pope is more concerned about getting Michelangelo to do his funeral monument at a knock-down price. On the Ceiling is not about great artists; it is about those people whose names don’t go down in history: the ones who do the essential drudge work, their frustration at their lack of genius, and their pride in their own technical expertise. In this version of events, low elements combine to make high art. Starring Phil Daniels as Lapo, Bryan Dick as Loti, Gary Waldhorn as Pope Julius and Roger Lloyd Pack as Cardinal Alidosi. Directed by Mary Peate. Language: English. Narrator: Phil Daniels, Bryan Dick, Gary Waldhorn, Roger Lloyd Pack. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/rt/bbcw/004502/rt_bbcw_004502_sample.mp3.

To the Best of Our Knowledge: It's All in the Game, Hörbuch, Digital, 52min
Video games used to be for kids and geeks. Today, just try to find someone who doesn't play at least one electronic game. Electronic games began as entertainment, but they're fast becoming much, much more. Already we use games to teach kids and to train doctors, to meet friends, and to wage war. Today, how games could transform the world. British writer and game theorist Tom Chatfield is the author of Fun, Inc: Why Gaming Will Dominate the 21st Century. He tells Jim Fleming he believes games also have the potential to revolutionize a field that could use a dose of fun – education. Imagine a game the lets you blast imaginary cancer cells – except they're from a real cancer patient, and your game you play may help save her life. Anne Strainchamps got professors Susan Millar and Kurt Squire to show her a game. Next, if you've ever played one of the big online multi-player fantasy games - like World of Warcraft - you know that in the beginning, there's a certain amount of drudge work. But you can cheat and get someone else to do it for you. Cory Doctorow has written a novel about it, called For the Win, and tells Anne Strainchamps about gold-farming, and why people do it. Commentator Aubrey Ralph understands the pleasure of it. He explains his enthusiasm for the Society for Creative Anachronism, or SCA. Ethan Gilsdorf also understands. He is the author of Fantasy Freaks and Gaming Geeks and tells Steve Paulson it began for him when he was 12. Finally, media theorist Douglas Rushkoff says the writing's on the wall: in the future, you can either make the software... or you can BE the software. Rushkoff has a new book – Program or Be Programmed. It opens with a story he told Anne Strainchamps about a recent visit to an Air Force general.
