Title: Winter Author: Karl Ove Knausgaard Narrator: Edoardo Ballerini Format: Unabridged Length: 05:10:00 Release date: 01-23-18 Genres: Personal Journals Publisher's Summary: The second volume in his autobiographical quartet based on the seasons, Winter is an achingly beautiful collection of daily meditations and letters addressed directly to Knaugsaard's unborn daughter 2 December - It is strange that you exist, but that you don't know anything about what the world looks like. It's strange that there is a first time to see the sky, a first time to see the sun, a first time to feel the air against one's skin. It's strange that there is a first time to see a face, a tree, a lamp, pajamas, a shoe. In my life it almost never happens anymore. But soon it will. In just a few months, I will see you for the first time. In Winter, we rejoin the great Karl Ove Knausgaard as he waits for the birth of his daughter. In preparation for her arrival, he takes stock of the world, seeing it as if for the first time. In his inimitably sensitive style, he writes about the moon, water, messiness, owls, birthdays - to name just a handful of his subjects. These oh-so-familiar objects and ideas he fills with new meaning, taking nothing for granted or as given. New life is on the horizon, but the earth is also in hibernation, waiting for the warmer weather to return, and so a contradictory melancholy inflects his gaze. Startling, compassionate, and exquisitely beautiful, Knausgaard's writing is like nothing else. Somehow, he shows the world as it really is, at once mundane and sublime.

    Norwich : Karen Crouse

This Personal Journals pick was made for moments like that. Slip in your earbuds and let the world around you fade away. Title: Norwich Series: One Tiny Vermont Town's Secret to Happiness and Excellence Author: Karen Crouse Narrator: Gabra Zackman Format: Unabridged Length: 04:36:00 Release date: 01-23-18 Genres: Personal Journals Publisher's Summary: The extraordinary story of the small Vermont town that has likely produced more Olympians per capita than any other place in the country - and whose citizens provide a model for achieving excellence while leading a well-rounded life. Norwich, a charming Vermont town of roughly 3,000 residents, has sent an athlete to almost every Winter Olympics for the past 30 years - and three times that athlete has returned with a medal. How does Norwich do it? To answer this question, New York Times reporter Karen Crouse moved to Vermont, immersing herself in the lives of Norwich Olympians past and present. There, amid the organic farms and clapboard colonial buildings, she discovered a culture that's the opposite of the hypercompetitive schoolyard of today's tiger moms and eagle dads. In Norwich, kids aren't cut from teams. They don't specialize in a single sport, and they even root for their rivals. What's more, their hands-off parents encourage them to simply enjoy themselves. Making it to the Olympics is seen not as the pinnacle of an athlete's career but as a fun stop on the way to achieving other longer-lasting dreams. Norwich, Crouse realized, wasn't just raising better athletes than the rest of America; it was raising happier, healthier kids. Full of inspiring stories of Olympians who excelled on and off the sports field - and had a blast doing so - Norwich is the book for every parent who wants to raise kids to be levelheaded, fulfilled, and successful.

    Audiobook: Epilepsy: The Lightning Storm Within the Brain by Mr. Don Scott Miller

    #ads Get premium access to stream any unabridged audiobook by starting your free trial:https://booksreader.space/al-7446/A Personal Journals audiobook for the moments during a reflective morning with coffee — exactly the kind of listen worth saving for the right hour. Press play and let it become the highlight of your day. Title: Epilepsy: The Lightning Storm Within the Brain Series: My Personal Reflections in Time's Rear View Mirror LP Author: Mr. Don Scott Miller Narrator: Scott Panfil Format: Unabridged Length: 03:41:00 Release date: 01-19-18 Genres: Personal Journals Publisher's Summary: This is the fourth version of the same epilepsy memoir originally published in 2014 with some noticeable additions. This is a true epilepsy saga from age 11 to age 53. Don Miller has had epilepsy for 42 years now. Mr. Miller was discouraged by the lack of epilepsy-oriented books at the beginning of this book's conception in 2005. There were no books about epilepsy at the library, and books about epilepsy were few and far between back in 2005. Those that were written were by doctors and nurses; there was nothing for the lay-person that would help cure that error. Epilepsy: The Lightning Storm was one man's solution to that problem, an automotive format: the human, the car; the engine, the brain. We are all cars, and E-people just have faulty electrical systems. Milepost one - a detour from the "normal life". Gentlemen, line up your cars, start your engines, green flag, gun your engines, go, go go! Genesis of the epilepsy, the beginning of the electric highway and the ups and downs of epilepsy, depression, and paranoid schizophrenia: Noble Jameson, my first neurologist, said, "I've seen this many times before. When adolescence ends, your seizures will stop." My seizures will stop when adolescence ends; that was seven or eight years; seven years seemed a lifetime, eight years seemed an eternity. So began the mounting frustration and exasperation. That statement has echoed in my mind during a 40-year prolonged adolescence. The brain is like a car's engine - it controls what we do and where we go, and some of us have faulty electrical systems. In adolescence, testosterone shifted my brain into overdrive and flicked the seizure switch that controlled the firing of my spark plugs to the off position - it has remained there for nearly four decades. At the end of my sixth-grade year during the hot summer of 1974, my engine overheated and I had two tonic-clonic - known at the time as grand mal - seizures. At the time, I experienced ictal (seizural) amnesia. So began a 40-year-journey on epilepsy's electric highway.

    Beate Herfurth-Uber's Gotthold Ephraim Lessing: Dichter, Kritiker... Spieler. Facetten eines ruhelosen Lebens

Press play and let it become the highlight of your day. Title: Gotthold Ephraim Lessing: Dichter, Kritiker... Spieler. Facetten eines ruhelosen Lebens Author: Beate Herfurth-Uber Narrator: Julia Nachtmann, Jürgen Uter, Peter Kaempfe Format: Unabridged Length: 02:54:00 Release date: 01-18-18 Ratings: In der Hörbiografie wechseln sich erzählerische Passagen, Interviews und Briefwechsel Lessings mit seiner Frau und Zeitgenossen ab. Durch die nicht lineare Erzählweise, akzentuiert von Zwischenmusiken und eingeleitet durch ein Vorwort von Dieter Hildebrandt im O-Ton, ist ein fesselndes Hör-Erlebnis entstanden. Die Produktion zeichnet ein eindringliches, mehrdimensionales Bild Lessings. Genres: Personal Journals Publisher's Summary: Gotthold Ephraim Lessing - als Dichter gefeiert, als Kritiker gefürchtet. Klug, witzig, schlagfertig. Schon zu Lebzeiten ist er berühmt, "Minna von Barnhelm" oder "Miss Sara Samson" sind Publikumslieblinge. Davon erzählt diese Hör-Biographie - aber auch von weniger bekannten Seiten des großen Dichters: Meist steckt er in Geldnöten. Er träumt von einer Existenz als freier Schriftsteller und endet als Bibliothekar, der glaubt, unter Schwarten zu "vermodern". Regelmäßig sitzt Lessing am Spieltisch. Die Faszination für das Glücksspiel teilt er mit Eva König, seiner späten, aber großen Liebe. Die beiden schreiben einander 193 Briefe. Es ist die Korrespondenz zweier einsamer Menschen. Mit einem Vorwort des Schriftstellers und Lessingkenners Dieter Hildebrandt. Er spricht über Lessings Zivilcourage und seinen einsamen Weg in die deutsche Literatur: "Es gibt kaum einen Schriftsteller, den das Leben mehr herumgescheucht, öfter fallen gelassen und übler mattgesetzt hat als diesen Pastorensohn aus Sachsen". ©2017 MultiSkript Verlag (P)2017 MultiSkript Verlag Kritik Bewertungen: In der Hörbiografie wechseln sich erzählerische Passagen, Interviews und Briefwechsel Lessings mit seiner Frau und Zeitgenossen ab. Durch die nicht lineare Erzählweise, akzentuiert von Zwischenmusiken und eingeleitet durch ein Vorwort von Dieter Hildebrandt im O-Ton, ist ein fesselndes Hör-Erlebnis entstanden. Die Produktion zeichnet ein eindringliches, mehrdimensionales Bild Lessings. -- Begründung der Nominierungsjury für den Deutschen Hörbuchpreis Klassiker sind langweilig? Dass das ein großer Irrtum ist, zeigt dieses empfehlenswerte Hörbuch über Gotthold Ephraim Lessing. Seine Stücke gehören heute zum festen Bildungskanon, doch damals musste sich Lessing in seinem turbulenten Leben immer wieder neu erfinden... Nicht nur die immer noch aktuellen Werke und ihre Entstehung stellt das Hörbuch vor, es bringt uns auch den Menschen Lessing in all seinen Widersprüchen nahe. --DAMALS, das Magazin für Geschichte Die Autorin Beate Herfurth-Uber zeichnet den unsteten Intelektuellen und Frauenschwarm Lessing voller Wärme. Dazu passt die sanft-sonore Stimme des Erzählers Peter Kaempfe. -- Braunschweiger Zeitung Wie der Bibliothekar (und Spieler!) den Gegensatz von Wolfenbüttel zu seinen vorigen Wohnorten Berlin und Hamburg empfand, wie er sich seiner späteren Frau Eva König annäherte: Der Hörer ist mitten dabei. Insgesamt: pointiert, vergnüglich, packend! -- Börsenblatt Auszüge und Gespräche über seine Theaterstücke und Briefe mit Lessingkennern, sowie sehr gute Sprecher machen die Hörbiographie sehr hörenswert... Insgesamt sehr gut gelungen. -- Der Hörspiegel
