    The Enchanter , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 176min
    The Enchanter is the Ur-Lolita, the precursor to Nabokov’s classic novel. At once hilarious and chilling, it tells the story of an outwardly respectable man and his fatal obsession with certain pubescent girls, whose coltish grace and subconscious coquetry reveal, to his mind, a special bud on the verge of bloom. One of the 20th century’s master prose stylists, Vladimir Nabokov was born in St. Petersburg in 1899. He studied French and Russian literature at Trinity College, Cambridge, then lived in Berlin and Paris, where he launched a brilliant literary career. In 1940 he moved to the United States, and achieved renown as a novelist, poet, critic, and translator. He taught literature at Wellesley, Stanford, Cornell, and Harvard. In 1961 he moved to Montreux, Switzerland, where he died in 1977. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christopher Lane.

    Forewarned Is Forearmed: Your Guide To Professional Hairdressing & Sound Procedures , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 183min
    This book deals with the legal issues hairdressers face when carrying out chemical services. When I received a letter from a no win no fee solicitor itemizing ten actions carried out on their client in my salon that had apparently caused damage to her hair and therefore rendered us negligent, I was mortified. I felt sick. Once I had spoken to the three stylists involved it was apparent to me that we were being wrongly accused. We agreed we wanted to fight the allegations. One of the things that helped me throughout the case was knowing about other cases and having the ability to make comparisons. I am compelled to write this book to share information, give guidance and help build confidence in dealing with matters of this nature. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Debbie Digby.

    Pricing Beauty: The Making of a Fashion Model , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 692min
    Sociologist Ashley Mears takes us behind the brightly lit runways and glossy advertisements of the fashion industry in this insider's study of the world of modeling. Mears, who worked as a model in New York and London, draws on observations as well as extensive interviews with male and female models, agents, clients, photographers, stylists, and others, to explore the economics and politics - and the arbitrariness - behind the business of glamour. Exploring a largely hidden arena of cultural production, she shows how the right "look" is discovered, developed, and packaged to become a prized commodity. She examines how models sell themselves, how agents promote them, and how clients decide to hire them. An original contribution to the sociology of work in the new cultural economy, Pricing Beauty offers rich, accessible analysis of the invisible ways in which gender, race, and class shape worth in the marketplace. ungekürzt.

    Albinus, a respectable, middle-aged man and aspiring filmmaker, abandons his wife for a lover half his age: Margot, who wants to become a movie star. When Albinus introduces her to Rex, an American movie producer, disaster ensues. What emerges is an elegantly sardonic and irresistibly ironic novel of desire, deceit, and deception, a curious romance set in the film world of Berlin in the 1930s. One of the 20th century’s master prose stylists, Vladimir Nabokov was born in St. Petersburg in 1899.
