Title: The Goodby People Author: Gavin Lambert Narrator: Philip Battley Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 49 minutes Release date: January 28, 2025 Genres: LGBTQ+ Publisher's Summary: First published in 1971, The Goodby People is perhaps the greatest novel ever written about post-Manson, pre-Disney Los Angeles. 'The bisexual draft dodger living on the skids, the glamorous young widow in search of enlightenment, the skinny gamine from out of town who wants to make it in the movies . . .'* These are the people who inhabit Gavin Lambert's mordant portrait of Southern California at the end of the 1960s: forever swapping addresses, lovers, and dreams. They live in extraordinary, suffocating wealth; or else flirting with a Mansonesque cult; or else in a fantasy where golden-age actresses make ghostly visitations to comment on their daily life. All that binds them together is their common sense of aimlessness—and the clear, judgment-free eye of a British author trying his best to be a friend to each. Cool, incisive, yet essentially kind, and very much ahead of its time, The Goodby People unfolds 'in the yawning chasm between real life in Los Angeles and the fantasies manufactured by its dominant business' (*Gary Indiana), and stands as Gavin Lambert's masterpiece. Contains mature themes.

Title: Collected Verse of Louis Esson Author: Louis Esson Narrator: Denis Daly Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 1 minute Release date: December 17, 2024 Genres: Poetry Publisher's Summary: Esson’s first collection of poems, Bells and Bees, was published in 1910; a second collection, Red Gums and Other Verses, in 1912. Although Esson published no further poetry collections, his verse continued to appear in magazines such as The Bulletin until the late 1920s. Included in his verse are not only bush ballads such as “Whalin’ up the Lachlan,” but also somber meditations such as “The Travail of Nature,” monologues like “Silenus to a Young Satyr,” and thundering panegyrics like “The Bazaar of Death.” As a rule, Esson’s poems are quite short and, despite occasional infelicities, display a tidy and skillful use of language.

The Nordstrom Way to Customer Experience Excellence: Creating a Values-Driven Service Culture, 3rd Edition by Breanne O. Reeves, Robert Spector

Title: The Nordstrom Way to Customer Experience Excellence: Creating a Values-Driven Service Culture, 3rd Edition Author: Breanne O. Reeves, Robert Spector Narrator: Steve Menasche Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 5 hours 55 minutes Release date: November 26, 2024 Genres: Sales & Retail Publisher's Summary: In this new edition of the management classic, the authors explore in-depth the core values of the culture that have made Nordstrom synonymous with legendary customer service. These essential values have enabled Nordstrom to survive and adapt to dramatic market shifts regularly since 1901, and the new edition explains how the Nordstrom approach can be emulated by any organization—in any industry. Nordstrom believes that the employee experience determines the customer experience, and that when you attract and reward people who are comfortable in a service-oriented culture, then everyone succeeds—both individually and collectively. No wonder Nordstrom is one of only five companies to make Fortune's 'Best Companies to Work For' and 'Most Admired' lists every year since those surveys have been taken. With new interviews from senior Nordstrom executives and family members, the book explains how to successfully respond to today's time-crunched customers who demand a convenient, seamless, personal experience across all channels. Nordstrom gives its frontline people all the digital tools necessary to satisfy the customer—and your organization must do the same, if it wants to adapt. The authors show what it takes to earn brand loyalty, lead through change and uncertainty, and combine extraordinary brick-and-mortar with online experiences.

Mouse: I have no memory or what or who I am, all I know is that everyone and everything is out to hurt me. Hands slap, teeth bite, and boots kick. So when I meet a big, bronzed warrior with blue eyes whose hands are gentle and voice is kind, I don't trust him. And when he starts showing up in my dreams, a part of me I long thought was dead awakens with a passion. Cravus: When I'm hired to protect the small female on a cross-planet journey, I'm told she's a new, unintelligent species. I can't get close enough to her without her snapping her blunt teeth at me, but underneath the dirty hair and clean rags, I could swear she's clever. When a nasty attack has us on the run, I know the only way to keep ourselves alive is to get her to trust me. And only then do I learn she's human and not only that—she's my mate too. Contains mature themes.
