The Incredulity of Father Brown by G. K. Chesterton

K. Chesterton Narrator: Stephen Scalon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 0 minutes Release date: October 12, 2019 Genres: Essays & Anthologies Publisher's Summary: In 'The Incredulity of Father Brown,' G.K. Chesterton treats us to another set of bizarre crimes that only his 'stumpy' Roman Catholic prelate has the wisdom and mindset to solve. As usual, Chesterton loves playing with early twentieth-century class distinctions, 'common-sense' assumptions, and the often anti-Catholic biases of his characters. He loves showing, through his characters, how those who hold themselves superior to the 'fantasies' of Brown's Catholic faith themselves devolve into superstitious blithering when faced with the tiniest of mysteries. In this collection, Brown finds himself as the main event at his own funeral (The resurrection of Father Brown), contemplating the possibility of death from the sky (The arrow of heaven), piercing the mystery of a dog's 'prophetic' behavior (The oracle of the dog), and facing off against a curse hanging about a medieval burial (The curse of the golden cross). A collection of excellent tales from one of the finest British mystery writers. Newly designed and typeset in a modern 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press.

Title: Little Women Author: Louisa May Alcott Narrator: Anthea Ayache Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 17 hours 2 minutes Release date: October 12, 2019 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Genres: Essays & Anthologies Publisher's Summary: Generations of readers young and old, male and female, have fallen in love with the March sisters of Louisa May Alcott's most popular and enduring novel, Little Women. Here are talented tomboy and author-to-be Jo, tragically frail Beth, beautiful Meg, and romantic, spoiled Amy, united in their devotion to each other and their struggles to survive in New England during the Civil War. It is no secret that Alcott based Little Women on her own early life. While her father, the freethinking reformer and abolitionist Bronson Alcott, hobnobbed with such eminent male authors as Emerson, Thoreau, and Hawthorne, Louisa supported herself and her sisters with 'woman's work,' including sewing, doing laundry, and acting as a domestic servant. But she soon discovered she could make more money writing. Little Women brought her lasting fame and fortune, and far from being the 'girl's book' her publisher requested, it explores such timeless themes as love and death, war and peace, the conflict between personal ambition and family responsibilities, and the clash of cultures between Europe and America.

Chesterton Narrator: Stephen Scalon Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 14 minutes Release date: October 12, 2019 Genres: Essays & Anthologies Publisher's Summary: 'And the young woman of the house,' asked Dr. Hood, with huge and silent amusement, 'what does she want?' 'Why, she wants to marry him,' cried Father Brown, sitting up eagerly. 'That is just the awful complication.' 'It is indeed a hideous enigma,' said Dr. Hood. 'This young James Todhunter,' continued the cleric, 'is a very decent man so far as I know; but then nobody knows very much. He is a bright, brownish little fellow, agile like a monkey, clean-shaven like an actor, and obliging like a born courtier. He seems to have quite a pocketful of money, but nobody knows what his trade is. Mrs. MacNab, therefore (being of a pessimistic turn), is quite sure it is something dreadful, and probably connected with dynamite.
