Seven Keys to Baldpate by George M. Cohan, Earl Derr Biggers
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/586927 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Seven Keys to Baldpate Author: George M. Cohan, Earl Derr Biggers Narrator: Justine Eyre, Gabrielle De Cuir, Joe Barrett, John Lee, A Full Cast, Stefan Rudnicki, John Rubinstein Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 46 minutes Release date: July 19, 2022 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: The famous author William Magee is in need of a place free from interruptions to write his next book, and so he heads to a summer mountain resort in the dead of winter in New York City. The Baldpate Inn happens to be closed for the season … but it is certainly not deserted. Magee was given a key to the Baldpate Inn so he might write in solitude, but he soon discovers that he is not the only person with a key. In fact, he is only one of seven! And the other guests, including a young woman who catches Magee’s eye, are all there on a mission to find a mysterious package with a large sum of money. So, instead of the peace and quietude he sought, Magee is dropped smack dab in the middle of a dangerous battle of wits. Before the week is out, there will be gunfire, bribery, fights in the snow … and hidden truths will be revealed. Featuring a range of clever characters and witty repartee, Seven Keys to Baldpate is a fast-paced thriller that will keep you guessing until the very end. George M. Cohan adapted Earl Derr Biggers’s Seven Keys to Baldpate for the theater in 1913, and Skyboat Media is pleased to present a dramatized reading of Cohan’s play in this original audiobook compilation. In George M. Cohan’s theatrical adaptation, novelist Billy Magee makes a bet with a wealthy friend that he can write a ten-thousand-word story within twenty-four hours. Just as in the novel, he retires to the Baldpate Inn in the dead of winter and locks himself in, believing he possesses the only key. But there appear to be seven keys to Baldpate, as he is besieged by visitors and drawn into their hijinks, including a plot to steal a large sum of money from the hotel safe. But the arrival of these guests is hardly a coincidence … and they may have a secret agenda of their own.

Ben Hur: A BBC Radio 4 Full-Cast Dramatisation by Lew Wallace
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/583516 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Ben Hur: A BBC Radio 4 Full-Cast Dramatisation Author: Lew Wallace Narrator: Michael Gambon, Full Cast, Samuel West, Jamie Glover Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 38 minutes Release date: July 14, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: A thrilling adaptation of Lew Wallace's epic biblical tale of betrayal, destiny and redemption. Judea, 26 AD. Two men's lives run almost in parallel. One is a prince of Jerusalem. The other is known as 'He that is born King of the Jews'... When Judah Ben Hur visits his childhood playmate Messala, now a Roman tribune, he hopes to rekindle an old friendship. But their meeting has devastating consequences. Betrayed and falsely accused of attempted murder, Judah's property is confiscated and his family arrested - and he himself is sent to the galleys. En route to the sea, he meets a carpenter's son, who gives him water - and looking into the man's eyes, he almost loses his desire for vengeance. Freed from slavery years later, Judah travels to Antioch, where he hears of a King who will lead the Jewish people, and vows to go and fight for him. He also encounters his former friend Messala once more, and seizes the opportunity to crush him in a high-stakes chariot race. Emerging victorious, he journeys back to Jerusalem to find his lost mother and sister, and raise a resistance force against Rome. But as his life intersects with that of the King he champions, he comes to realise that Jesus of Nazareth is not a warrior, but a saviour - and that the path to his kingdom lies through forgiveness. First published in 1880, Ben Hur was famously adapted as a 1959 blockbuster starring Charlton Heston, which won a record 11 Oscars. This spectacular, cinematic dramatisation boasts a stirring score by award-winning composer Wilfredo Acosta, and is brought to life by a stunning cast including Julian Glover, Samuel West and Michael Gambon.

P. Snow's epic series about the English establishment across the twentieth century 'A vivid portrait of British academic, political and public life' Guardian 'A very considerable achievement... It brings into the novel themes and locales never seen before (except perhaps in Trollope)' Anthony Burgess In 1920s Leicester, Lewis Eliot must escape the drudgery of a council clerk's office and his provincial lower class background to begin his decades-long rise to power. As the years pass, and Lewis progresses to successful London lawyer, to Cambridge don, to wartime service in Whitehall, to senior civil servant and finally retirement, he faces in his own life and the lives of those around him collapsing marriages, terrible illness, the politics of academia, Nazism, nuclear weapons, the price of power, and the ever-present realities of war. The New York Times praised the book series, saying, 'through [them] as in no other work in our time we have explored the inner life of the new classless class that is the 20th century Establishment'. John Betjeman claimed the books were 'as full of life as life itself'. The Strangers and Brothers series captures perfectly the ever-present battle between political and personal integrity Lewis must face, as well as all the upheaval and social change of the two world wars and the decades that followed. This adaptation stars David Haig and Adam Godley as Lewis Eliot, Bill Wallis as George Passant, Juliet Aubrey as Margaret Davidson, Stephen Moore as Herbert Getliffe, and Danny Webb as Percy Hall, with a full cast including Jeremy Swift, David Tennant, Anne-Marie Duff, Iain Glen, Claire Skinner and Tim McInnerny.

This definitive collection comprises all six of his groundbreaking plays, as well as a riveting documentary drama examining the mysterious circumstances around Marlowe's killing.

Starring Sally Dexter and Timothy Walker. Tamburlaine - Said to have changed the course of British theatre through its pioneering use of blank verse, this classic drama about the rise to tyrannical power of a Scythian shepherd stars Con O'Neill, Oliver Ford Davies and Kenneth Cranham.

[Spanish] - El gran Meaulnes by Alain Fournier
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/578622 to listen full audiobooks. Title: [Spanish] - El gran Meaulnes Author: Alain Fournier Narrator: David Carrillo Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 6 minutes Release date: June 30, 2022 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: Pensé igualmente que nuestra juventud había acabado y la felicidad estaba perdida. Ambientado en la gris vida de provincias, donde sus personajes están a solas con sus sueños de evasión y aventura, El gran Meaulnes dibuja el difícil y apasionado ingreso de la adolescencia en los primeros rigores de la madurez. Adoptando el tono y el color de la elegía simbolista y crepuscular, Alain Fournier se sirvió de sus propios recuerdos para escribir una pequeña obra maestra transida de bruma melancólica, en la cual supo recrear con un maravilloso poder de evocación la gran fuerza poética de un mundo de ensueño. Reseña: «Este libro es de obligada referencia entre los relatos que hablan de los mundos míticos privados, del despertar al amor, a los celos, al desasosiego, a la voluntad de rebelarse contra la grisalla y la monotonía de vidas que parecen condenadas nada más comenzar.» Miguel Sánchez-Ostiz, ACB Cultural

Title: [Spanish] - La vida del Buscón Author: Francisco De Quevedo Narrator: Pablo Martínez Gugel Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 4 hours 43 minutes Release date: June 30, 2022 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: La novela picaresca de Quevedo por excelencia. Hijo de un ladrón y de una bruja, Pablos, el Buscón, entra al servicio de un joven rico, vive en Alcalá, en la corte y acaba viajando a América. Aunque su argumento no deja de ser muy similar al de otras obras del género, La vida del Buscón no es una novela picaresca al uso. La maestría de su escritura, la vivacidad y sarcasmo en la descripción de personajes y situaciones, la inteligente crueldad de sus anécdotas, hacen de ella una obra que rebasa los límites de su género, una novela picaresca que da una vuelta de tuerca al arquetipo. «Cuando comienzan desgracias en uno, parece que nunca se han de acabar, que andan encadenadas, y unas traían a otras».

Title: [Spanish] - Creekfield Hall Author: Susana Negro Narrator: Eva Coll Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 10 minutes Release date: June 7, 2022 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: Una joven huérfana de padre, sus hermanos y su madre se ven obligados a buscar la protección de un pariente cercano. Este rico hacendado, hombre hasta el momento de valores y moral intachables, se verá expuesto a actuar bajo el imperio de las fuertes emociones que la muchacha le despierta. A partir de ese momento, se pondrá en juego la dualidad amo y esclavo que los lleva a transitar una senda no deseada, aunque inevitable. Desde el primer encuentro se perfila que ambos habrán de quedar bajo el influjo de una fascinación inevitable. Su condición de tío, tutor y educador permite a Marsh Reeth un contacto diario con su sobrina, Sophie Byrne. La atracción mutua que van sintiendo, con el correr de los meses se transformará en una pasión que los unirá de por vida. Diversos acontecimientos los acercarán y alejarán haciendo dificultosa la concreción de ese amor. Los recursos a los que Marsh habrá de recurrir para no separarse de Sophie dan suspenso a la trama y modifican constantemente la conducta de todos los personajes. Es el lector el que se encontrará buscando la salida a los numerosos incidentes que se interpondrán entre Sophie y Marsh.

'Die Sängerin' ist eine Kriminalnovelle von Wilhelm Hauff, die zuerst 1826 erschien. Sie handelt von der Aufklärung eines Mordversuchs an einer jungen Sängerin durch den sie behandelnden Arzt. Auf die italienische Sängerin Giuseppa Fiametti wird ein Mordanschlag verübt. Am Abend vorher soll sie sich auf einer Redoute mit einem maskierten Herrn unterhalten haben, mit dem sie dann auch den Ballsaal verließ. Über die Vergangenheit und den Lebenswandel der jungen Dame sind schon bald in der Kleinstadt unschöne Gerüchte im Umlauf. Medizinalrat Lange geht der Sache nach und stößt auf eine Menge Ungereimtheiten. Es gelingt ihm, das Vertrauen der Fiametti zu gewinnen, die ihm ihre traurige Lebensgeschichte anvertraut. Doch warum nannte die Sängerin kurz nach dem Anschlag den Namen des wohlangesehenen Kommerzienrat Bolnau, der sich durch sein seltsames Verhalten vor allem in den Augen des Polizeipräsidenten mehr als verdächtig macht? Lange, der Polizeidirektor und Giuseppa planen nun, dem Attentäter eine Falle zu stellen: Man will die Nachricht verbreiten, dass Giuseppa zur letzten Redoute des Karnevals gehen wird, damit er auch dort auftaucht… Coverabbildung: Unter Verwendung eines Gemäldeausschnittes von Walter Heimig (1881-1955):Ball Szene.

Sanditon and Other Stories by Jane Austen
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/587884 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Sanditon and Other Stories Author: Jane Austen Narrator: Avita Jay Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 12 minutes Release date: April 19, 2022 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: In a new audio adaptation of some of Austen’s lesser known works, Avita Jay brings to life the wit and satire of one of England’s greatest authors. In Austen’s final and unfinished novel, Charlotte Heywood finds herself caught up in the comings and goings of the lively seaside resort 'Sanditon'. It is a story filled with a cast of colourful characters, from the widowed Lady Denham to wealthy Caribbean heiress, Georgiana Lambe, and the dashing, Sidney Parker. Naturally, romance and scandal ensue. The incomplete story has inspired many writers to take the work into their own hands, including the popular adaptation by the ITV, starring Theo James. 'Lady Susan' is an epistolary novel that follows the charming, irreverent, newly widowed Lady Susan. Beautiful, flirtatious and utterly, unashamed, she goes about seducing a married man, terrorizing her relatives, and subverting all expectations of the maudlin, frumpy widow. The book was adapted for the screen under the name 'Love and Friendship' in 2016 and stars Kate Beckinsale, Chloe Sevigny, Xavier Samuel and Stephen Fry. Another unfinished novel, 'The Watsons' follows Emma Watson, the youngest daughter of a poor clergyman who was raised by a wealthy aunt. Returning home, she is bored by her husband-hunting sisters, but soon catches the eye of local gentleman, Lord Osbourne. - There are few authors as iconic as Jane Austen (1775-1817). Her body of work contains some of the most beloved books and characters of all time which have been in print for over two hundred years and sold millions of copies worldwide. Austen was a trailblazer, famed for her satire, her astute social commentary and her strong-willed, passionate heroines. Her ability to wield humour with realism has found her favour with critics and readers for generations. Her most famous works include Pride and Prejudice (1813), Emma (1816), Sense and Sensibility (1811) and Persuasion (1818), all of which have received success in adaptations for the screen, stage and radio.

In his youth, he changed many casual professions, traveled and even spent a month in prison for vagrancy. In the northern stories, London opposes the world of untouched nature to civilization, but, believing in the beneficent nature, does not cease to bow before the technical and cultural achievements of civilization.

Title: The Picture of Dorian Gray: Английский язык. 9-10 классы Author: Oscar Wilde Narrator: Cora Mcdonald Format: Abridged Audiobook Length: 1 hour 44 minutes Release date: April 14, 2022 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4 of Total 1 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: Written in his distinctively dazzling manner, Oscar Wilde's story of a fashionable young man who sells his soul for eternal youth and beauty is the author's most popular work. The tale of Dorian Gray's moral disintegration caused a scandal when it first appeared in 1890, but though Wilde was attacked for the novel's corrupting influence, he responded that there is, in fact, 'a terrible moral in Dorian Gray.' Just a few years later, the book and the aesthetic/moral dilemma it presented became issues in the trials occasioned by Wilde's homosexual liaisons, which resulted in his imprisonment. Of Dorian Gray's relationship to autobiography, Wilde noted in a letter, 'Basil Hallward is what I think I am: Lord Henry what the world thinks me: Dorian what I would like to be—in other ages, perhaps.'
