    The Boise Survey by Jesse Brundage Sears ~ Full Audiobook [history]

    The Boise Survey by Jesse Brundage Sears audiobook. Genre: history Commissioned by the Boise Independent School District and carried out over an intensive two-week field study, The Boise Survey is Jesse Brundage Sears' clear-eyed investigation into how a growing Western city runs its public schools - and how it could run them better. Drawing on visits, records, and observations gathered by Sears and his survey staff, the report walks listeners through the machinery of a city school system: how the district is organized and administered, how teachers are selected and supported, what the curriculum asks of students, and how effectively instruction is working in practice. Along the way, the survey traces student progress and achievement, considers individual differences among children, and examines the often-overlooked backbone of schooling - buildings, grounds, educational records, and the financing that keeps everything operating. Specific sections focus on the high school and on educational and vocational guidance, showing how policy decisions shape real classroom outcomes. Written to be understood not only by specialists but by ordinary citizens, this book blends data with pointed conclusions and practical recommendations, capturing a pivotal moment in early 20th-century American education reform.

    Three Men on the Bummel by Jerome K. Jerome ~ Full Audiobook [comedy]

    Three Men on the Bummel by Jerome K. Jerome audiobook. Genre: comedy In Three Men on the Bummel, Jerome K. Jerome reunites the good-natured trio first seen in Three Men in a Boat - the quick-witted narrator J., the unflappable George, and the magnificently chaotic Harris - as they flee the strain of modern city life for a holiday on the continent. Their grand plan is simple: a cycling tour through Germany, with fresh air, picturesque towns, and the freedom of the open road. Reality, of course, has other ideas. From baffling timetables and bewildering rules to stubborn bicycles, unfamiliar customs, and the small indignities of travel, the friends lurch from one comic complication to the next, meeting an assortment of locals and fellow tourists along the way. Woven through the mishaps is Jerome's sharp, affectionate satire on work, progress, national habits, and the restless urge to turn leisure into another kind of labor. Part travelogue, part character comedy, and part reflection on how people try - and fail - to truly relax, this is a witty, warm escapade powered by observation and misadventure.

    The People of the Abyss by Jack London ~ Full Audiobook [history]

    The People of the Abyss by Jack London audiobook. Genre: history In 1902, celebrated American writer Jack London crosses the Atlantic and disappears into the slums of Londons East End, determined to see what polite society refuses to notice. With little money, plain clothes, and a borrowed accent, he moves among the homeless and the working poor, sleeping in casual wards, queuing for a scrap of bread, and searching for day labor that vanishes as quickly as it appears. What begins as an experiment in observation becomes a relentless tour of overcrowded lodging houses, hunger, sickness, and the bureaucratic machinery meant to manage misery rather than end it. London introduces the reader to men and women ground down by low wages and bad luck, and he records their routines with a reporters eye and a reformers anger. The book is both immersion journalism and moral indictment, asking how a modern empire can tolerate such deprivation in its own capital. Tense, immediate, and often unsettling, The People of the Abyss invites listeners to confront the human cost of poverty, and to question the stories societies tell themselves about merit, blame, and survival.

    The Old Maids Club by Israel Zangwill ~ Full Audiobook [comedy]

    The Old Maids Club by Israel Zangwill audiobook. Genre: comedy In late-Victorian London, seventeen-year-old Lillie Dulcimer is brilliant, beautiful, and far too self-aware for polite society's comfort. With a millionaire father determined to see her safely married, Lillie answers pressure with paradox: she founds the Old Maids' Club, a proudly exclusive refuge for young women who refuse to treat matrimony as a duty or a bargain. Part manifesto, part social prank, the club's tongue-in-cheek rules and public posturing turn Lillie into a minor celebrity - and a lightning rod for every matchmaker, moralist, and curious onlooker in town. As word spreads, a parade of suitors, friends, rivals, and fellow skeptics circle the club, including Lord Silverdale, whose presence tests whether Lillie's theories about love and independence can survive contact with real feeling. Told with Zangwill's brisk wit and satirical eye, The Old Maids' Club skewers the era's marriage market while letting its heroine chase a harder question: how to stay true to herself in a world that insists a woman's story must end at the altar.

    The Girl with the Golden Eyes by Honore de Balzac ~ Full Audiobook [drama]

    The Girl with the Golden Eyes by Honore de Balzac audiobook. Genre: drama In Restoration Paris, where wealth and reputation can be traded as easily as gossip, the worldly dandy Henri de Marsay lives for conquest and control. But a single glimpse of a young woman with striking, golden eyes jolts him out of his practiced indifference. Determined to learn her name and claim her attention, de Marsay follows the faint trail of clues into a shadowed corner of the city, a place of barred windows, whispered appointments, and servants who seem trained to reveal nothing. The woman, Paquita Valdes, is kept behind layers of secrecy, and every step closer to her draws de Marsay deeper into a private world ruled by jealousy and fear. As desire turns into fixation, he must navigate coded messages, clandestine meetings, and the unsettling sense that he is not the only one watching. Balzac builds a feverish portrait of obsession, erotic power, and social theater, exposing how privilege can disguise cruelty and how longing can become a trap, for pursuer and pursued alike.

    Farewell by Honore de Balzac ~ Full Audiobook [tragedy]

    Farewell by Honore de Balzac audiobook. Genre: tragedy In Farewell, Honore de Balzac delivers a stark, intimate tale of love tested by history and the limits of the human mind. Years after the Napoleonic wars, the aristocratic Philippe de Sucy stumbles upon a mystery in the French countryside: a young woman living in near-silence, her thoughts fractured, her past seemingly erased. She is Stephanie de Vandières, once the center of a passionate attachment, now trapped in a childlike state after a catastrophe tied to the retreat from Russia. Philippe cannot accept that the woman he loved has vanished behind an unresponsive gaze. Driven by devotion and guilt, he throws himself into an all-consuming effort to bring her back, consulting doctors, courting powerful allies, and clinging to the idea that a single key - a word, a memory, a scene - might unlock what trauma has sealed away. Balzac blends psychological realism with the lingering violence of war, asking how much of a person can survive disaster, and what love becomes when it turns into a mission. The result is tense, haunting, and relentless in its emotional stakes.
