H. Williams III. When young English lawyer Jonathan Harker arrives in Transylvania on the eve of Saint George's Day, he cannot shake a strange feeling of uneasiness. Dogs howl throughout the night, villagers speak fearfully of evil omens, and the air grows colder as he arrives at his destination: the castle of Count Dracula. Jonathan has been summoned by the count for business, and while he finds his new host obliging and polite, he can't help but notice the man's pallid skin, odd lack of appetite, and long daytime absences. Puzzled, the young solicitor begins to search the castle for clues - and unearths a deadly secret that could endanger him and those he loves most. Journey through the Carpathian Mountains, lose yourself in the shadowy streets of London, and experience all the action, suspense, and terror of this classic tale. Just be sure to leave a light on.

Oder anders gefragt: Kann ein an sich guter Mensch unter den widrigen Bedingungen dieser Welt überhaupt gut bleiben? Bei dieser Kernfrage des Parabelstücks "Der Gute Mensch" von Sezuan aus Brechts Exilzeit sind selbst die Götter mit ihrem Latein am Ende. Sie haben auf ihrer irdischen Inspektionsreise bisher vergeblich nach guten Menschen Ausschau gehalten. Nun glauben sie, mit der Prostituierten Shen Te (gesprochen von einer herausragenden Sonja Kehler) endlich fündig geworden zu sein. Bertolt Brecht verpackt sein hochpolitisches Stück in pralles, lebendiges und komödiantisches Volkstheater, hier als Hörspiel grandios umgesetzt. ©2018 Suhrkamp (P)2018 DAV Kontakt: info@hotaudiobook.com

Charles Dickens: The Essential Collection by Charles Dickens | Free Audiobook

Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free [https://hotaudiobook.com/free] Title: Charles Dickens: The Essential Collection Author: Charles Dickens Narrator: Ellis Christoff Format: Unabridged Length: 35 hrs and 43 mins Language: English Release date: 01-10-18 Publisher: Paperless Genres: Classics, European Literature Summary: "Little Dorrit is a novel by Charles Dickens, originally published in serial form between 1855 and 1857. It satirises the shortcomings of both government and society, including the institution of debtors' prisons, where debtors were imprisoned, unable to work, until they repaid their debts. The prison in this case is the Marshalsea, where Dickens's own father had been imprisoned. Dickens is also critical of the lack of a social safety net, the treatment and safety of industrial workers, as well the bureaucracy of the British Treasury, in the form of his fictional 'Circumlocution Office'. In addition he satirises the stratification of society that results from the British class system." - Wikipedia Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

Candide by Voltaire | Free Audiobook

Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free [https://hotaudiobook.com/free] Title: Candide Author: Voltaire Narrator: Kevin Kollins Format: Unabridged Length: 3 hrs and 1 min Language: English Release date: 01-10-18 Publisher: Kevin Kollins Genres: Classics, European Literature Summary: "Candide is a French satire first published in 1759 by Voltaire, a philosopher of the Age of Enlightenment. It begins with a young man, Candide, who is living a sheltered life in an Edenic paradise and being indoctrinated with Leibnizian optimism by his mentor, Professor Pangloss. The work describes the abrupt cessation of this lifestyle, followed by Candide's slow, painful disillusionment as he witnesses and experiences great hardships in the world. Voltaire concludes with Candide, if not rejecting optimism outright, advocating a deeply practical precept, 'we must cultivate our garden', in lieu of the Leibnizian mantra of Pangloss, 'all is for the best' in the 'best of all possible worlds'. "Candide is characterised by its sarcastic tone as well as by its erratic, fantastical, and fast-moving plot. A picaresque novel with a story similar to that of a more serious coming-of-age narrative (Bildungsroman), it parodies many adventure and romance clichés, the struggles of which are caricatured in a tone that is mordantly matter-of-fact. Still, the events discussed are often based on historical happenings, such as the Seven Years' War and the 1755 Lisbon earthquake. As philosophers of Voltaire's day contended with the problem of evil, so too does Candide in this short novel, albeit more directly and humorously. Voltaire ridicules religion, theologians, governments, armies, philosophies, and philosophers through allegory; most conspicuously, he assaults Leibniz and his optimism. "As expected by Voltaire, Candide has enjoyed both great success and great scandal. Immediately after its secretive publication, the book was widely banned because it contained religious blasphemy, political sedition and intellectual hostility hidden under a thin veil of naïveté. However, with its sharp wit and insightful portrayal of the human condition, the novel has since inspired many later authors and artists to mimic and adapt it. Today, Candide is recognized as Voltaire's magnum opus." [Wikipedia] Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com
