Clarice and Dave Johnson are a married couple struggling to overcome physical trauma, personal disappointments, and unrealized expectations.

Clarice, a designer-label, luxury-car kind of woman, is driven by her quest to climb the social ladder; Dave, who feels at home in his blue jeans and pick-up truck, is satisfied coaching little league and running a janitorial service. After Clarice sustains injuries in a car accident, the constant presence of her physical therapist, Julie, creates strife that quickly moves the Johnson's marriage into crisis mode. Clarice and Dave struggle to find resolution as they learn the importance of promises made and kept and discover that help sometimes comes from unlikely places. Language: English.

Illumination Night , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 468min
Beginning on the night of the Grand Illumination, a festival of lanterns held each summer on Martha's Vineyard, this novel is a modern chronicle of a marriage and a bittersweet exploration of an extraordinary passion. Illumination Night follows the lives of a young blond giant who is as beautiful as he is frightening; an old woman at the end of her life whose last mission is to save her granddaughter's soul; a family torn apart by a wife's fears and a husband's unrealized desires; and the high school girl who comes to Martha's Vineyard against her will, who steals husbands and cars, and who will bring everyone together in a web of yearning, sin, and ultimate redemption. Both riveting and reflective, this is a story that brings to light the talent that has made Alice Hoffman an acclaimed bestselling author. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Suzanne Toren.

Graciela (eBook, ePUB)
Graciela chronicles the life of a Quechua-speaking Indigenous woman in the remote Andean highlands during the war in Peru that killed seventy thousand people and displaced hundreds of thousands more in the 1980s and 1990s. The book traces her early years as a young child living in an epicenter of violence to her contemporary life as a postwar survivor. Graciela Orihuela Rocha's history embodies the horrors, injustices, promises, and challenges faced by countless individuals who endured and survived the war. Her story provides intimate insights into deep-seated divisions within Peruvian society that center around skin color, gender, language, and ties to the land. These fault lines have endured to the present day, fostering discontent and violence in Peru.Through Graciela's story we not only learn of trauma and dehumanization but also resilience, strength, and perseverance. Graciela's history provides insight into the systemic challenges of determining truth, implementing justice, and envisioning reconciliation in a country where calls for equality and justice remain unrealized for the most marginalized.- Shop: buecher

Ungeschehene Geschichte
The question "What would have happened if ..." is still seen by many historians as a useless dalliance. Alexander Demandt, however, recalls Friedrich Schiller's claim that culture unfolds only through playing games. If this is true, then it is also true for science. The playful occupation with possibilities is as important to science as controled and scheduled work according to tried and true methods.The core of this short volume consists not only of imagining and thinking up historical alternatives - what would have happened if Hitler had died in 1938? What would have happened if the Peasants' War of 1525 had succeeded? What if Pontius Pilate had set Jesus free? If Hannibal had marched on Rome after his victory at Cannae? In original and sometimes "brilliant diction" (Frank Schirrmacher, review in FAZ) Demandt points out that and how the thinking up of unrealized alternatives can be justified as part of the study of history.- Shop: buecher

The Half-Assed Wizard: Volume 1 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 269min
A couple of jerks wake me up at the crack of noon. Seems my klepto uncle stole an ancient deck of Tarot cards from a high-powered wizard, and too many losers want to ruin my day to get them back. The cards are cool, so I check them out, but my magic-happy cousin, Sabrina, tells me I'm not supposed to touch them. Oops. Too late. Now the damn cards are tuned to me, and if someone else wants to use them, I have to die. Why couldn't she have led with that information? Magic was never my scene, but my dad is one of the most powerful wizards in the world, so I've got unrealized potential if I ever bother to apply myself. I'd rather power nap, but with wizards, gunslingers, and cannibalistic shark dudes coming at me, that's not gonna happen. They say I'm a half-assed wizard, but if I don't play my cards right, I'm gonna get my whole ass killed. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Joe Hempel.

Bobby Green : Johnnies, Book 5 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 825min
Vern Roberts couldn’t wait to turn 18 and get the hell out of Dogpatch, California. But city living is expensive, and he’s damned desperate when Dex, from Johnnies, spots him bussing tables. As “Bobby”, he’s a natural at gay porn. Soon, he’s surrounded by hot guys and sex for the taking, but it’s not just his girlfriend back in Dogpatch - or her blackmailing brother - that keeps him from taking it, it’s the sweet guy who held the lights for his first solo scene and who showed him decency, kindness, and a smile. Reg Williams likes to think he’s too stupid to realize what a shitty hand life dealt him, but Bobby knows better. What Reg lacks in family, opportunity, education, and money, he makes up for in heart. One fumbling step at a time, they connect, not just in their hearts, but in their bodies, where sex that’s not on camera, casual, or meaningless, becomes the most important thing in the world. But Reg is hampered by an inescapable family burden, and he and Bobby will never fly unless he can find a way to manage it. Can he break the painful link to his unrealized childhood and grow into the love Bobby wants to give? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Gomez Pugh.
