    Evelyn Waugh's stunning novel of duty and desire set amongst the decadent, faded glory of the English aristocracy in the run-up to the Second World WarThe most nostalgic and reflective of Evelyn Waugh's novels, Brideshead Revisited looks back to the golden age before the Second World War. It tells the story of Charles Ryder's infatuation with the Marchmains and the rapidly disappearing world of privilege they inhabit. Enchanted first by Sebastian Flyte at Oxford, then by his doomed Catholic family, in particular his remote sister, Julia, Charles comes finally to recognise his spiritual and social distance from them.If you enjoyed Brideshead Revisited, you might like Waugh's Vile Bodies, also available in Penguin Classics.'Lush and evocative ... Expresses at once the profundity of change and the indomitable endurance of the human spirit'The Times

    'One of African literature's most fascinating and unorthodox figures' Brian Chikwava'When all else fails, don't take it in silence: scream like hell, scream like Jericho was tumbling down, serenaded by a brace of trombones, scream'Dambudzo Marechera burst onto the literary scene in 1978 with this vivid roar of a book exploring township life in pre-independence Zimbabwe. Rejecting what he saw as the narrow stereotypes of African literature, Marechera's stories portrayed a world flashing with violence and anarchic humour, as his narrator expresses his desperate alienation - from his family, from his student friends, from Zimbabwe itself.'A writer who considered fiction a "form of combat", complex, challenging - and uniquely potent' Guardian'Like overhearing a scream' Doris Lessing'A terrible beauty is born out of the urgency of his vision' Angela Carter

    Men are not stupid. They are not all the same. But some of their basic needs are simple, and when you hear my explanation of these three categories, you will understand why. Men basically care about three things: food, fighting, and f...I don’t want to swear, but the words "make love" don’t start with an "F", so I’m going to call the third need the "female" in their lives.What does this mean? Some men don’t like to fight, do they? And are men really all that hung up on food and sex? Well, it’s a little more complicated than that, but the roots are definitely just that: Food and sex are really important, and in this audiobook, I will tell you why and how that expresses itself. Moreover, I will give you tips to play into these needs and make your wife happy, or if you are a male listener, to understand yourself better.Not all men literally fight, but pretty much every man wants to "fight for something". They try to achieve career success, defend or protect something, and destroy something that’s evil in their minds. A dominant hormone in men is testosterone, which expresses itself in both aggression and sex drive. This hormone dominates a lot of their thinking.In this audiobook, I will explain more why men do what they do, what they really want, why sometimes they don’t feel like doing something, and how you can influence them positively to do things. I will also reveal more about what triggers their sense of self, their identity, and self-confidence, and basically anything there is to know about men’s desires in general.Are you intrigued yet? Then listen to this short audiobook and become more familiar with the man’s brain. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Tom Johnson.

    This book is a pathway to the phrase that says "actions say more than words".We can think very well what we are going to say, plan it, and communicate it to create an image of ourselves in the minds of other people. But as you well know, those words may not be true. That is, words can project a wrong image. Why? Because, we can lie.However, our body expresses itself unconsciously. It is more complex and unlikely for a person to plan their movements with a defined purpose. Our words may lie, but our bodily expressions give us away.Despite having different personalities and having lived different experiences, we all feel fear, joy, sadness, anxiety, or euphoria. And our body expresses them when our cheeks are flushed, when our hands sweat, if our gaze drifts, when our voice trembles, or if we cross our arms.Although these results respond to certain circumstances and are not absolute responses to all situations, It is clear that more than half of the signals emitted by a human being when communicating come from their bodily expressions.Reading people requires a lot of observation. It's about seeing subtle clues in body language, facial expressions, or eye movement. You don't need to be the best interrogator to know what someone has in mind. The signs are always there, we just have to observe and know what we are looking for. Each individual has behavioral patterns that we must identify to establish a basis for analysis.With this audiobook, you are good to go. It is rich in explanation and full of adequate information about how you can read and analyze people’s mind-set effectively and correctly without much stress. Listen to it, and be overwhelmed! ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Eric LaCord. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/216778/bk_acx0_216778_sample.mp3. Digital audiobook in aax.

    A novel of violence, of love, and introspection, The Up-Down follows a man who leaves home and all that's familiar, finds true love, loses it, and finds it again. Pace's voyage is outward, among strangers, and inward into the fifth direction that is the up-down, in a sweeping, voracious human tale that takes no prisoners, witnesses extreme brutalities and expresses a childlike amazement. Here the route goes from New Orleans, to Chicago to Wyoming to Bay St. Clement, North Carolina, but the geography he is charting is always first and foremost unchartable. ungekürzt.
