Coal Black Mornings , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 261min

Listen to the end for an audiobook exclusive: Brett Anderson in conversation with Matt Thorne, author of Prince. Brett Anderson came from a world impossibly distant from rock star success, and in Coal Black Mornings he traces the journey that took him from a childhood as 'a snotty, sniffy, slightly maudlin sort of boy raised on Salad Cream and milky tea and cheap meat' to becoming founder and lead singer of Suede. Anderson grew up in Hayward's Heath on the grubby fringes of the Home Counties. As a teenager he clashed with his eccentric taxi-driving father (who would parade around their council house dressed as Lawrence of Arabia, air-conducting his favourite composers) and adored his beautiful, artistic mother. He brilliantly evokes the seventies, the suffocating discomfort of a very English kind of poverty and the burning need for escape that it breeds. Anderson charts the shabby romance of creativity as he travelled the tube in search of inspiration, fuelled by Marmite and nicotine, and Suede's rise from rehearsals in bedrooms, squats and pubs. And he catalogues the intense relationships that make and break bands as well as the devastating loss of his mother. Coal Black Mornings is profoundly moving, funny and intense - a book which stands alongside the most emotionally truthful of personal stories. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Kings of B'more (eBook, ePUB)

Two queer boys face their last day together with an epic journey through Baltimore in this magnetic YA debut about love between friends by celebrated cultural critic and bestselling Here For It author R. Eric Thomas. With junior year starting in the fall, Harrison feels like he's on the precipice of, well, everything. Standardized testing, college, and the terrifying unknowns and looming pressures of adulthood after that-it's like the future wants to eat him alive. Which is why Harrison is grateful that he and his best friend Linus will face these things together. But at the end of a shift at their summer job, Linus invites Harrison to their special spot at Baltimore Cemetery to deliver devastating news he's been holding in-he's moving out of state at the end of the week. In an act of major deflection-and partially inspired by a cheesy movie-night pick by his Dad-Harrison decides to distract his mind and heart by planning a send-off à la Ferris Bueller's Day Off that's worthy of his favorite person. If they won't be having all the life-expanding experiences they thought they would, Harrison will squeeze them all into their last day. They end up on a mini road trip, their first Pride parade, and a rooftop tea dance, all while keeping their respective parents, who track them on a family location app, off their trail. Harrison and Linus make a pact to do all the things-big and small-they've been too scared to do. But nothing feels scarier than saying goodbye to someone you love.

Business is booming for Libby Beckett and her fabulous Maryland shop, aptly named Y.A.R.N., but when a town festival brings a fatality with it, Libby gets all tangled up in murder. As fall comes to Collinstown, the village launches a food festival to draw a new group of tourists. Libby, proud owner of Y.A.R.N, has planned a special yarn event to give an alternative option to a foodie weekend. Artisan fiber dyer Julie Wilson-known for her work with animal free fibers such as bamboo and hemp, as well as her brilliant use of color -will hopefully draw a crowd with a special dyeing workshop. The festival begins, but it draws more than crowds. First a flock of sheep parade down the street, herded by farmers protesting Julie's anti-wool stance. Then Julie's celebrity chef sister appears and the siblings continue a long-standing rivalry. But despite all this, Julie's workshop has sold out. Libby is thrilled, and they're preparing for a full house. But the night before the event, Julie is found alone in the warehouse event space, dead. The witty "Watch Julie Dye" seminar title now has a terrible new meaning-and it's up to Libby to catch a crafty killer.

A Season for Smugglers (Deception and Discipline, #3) (eBook, ePUB)

Will his daring debutante rescue reveal the traitor to the crown? Lily Davies' first - and final, if she has anything to say about it - Season in London is mercifully coming to an end. Exhausted by the parade of balls, importuning gentlemen, and the endless dismissal of her suspicions about a certain captain, Lily wants nothing more than to return to her quiet life of country walks and intensive study. Unfortunately for this bluestocking, she is besieged en route to Derbyshire and kidnapped by a highwayman. In London to assist his brother, the brand new Earl of Talbot, Captain Nathan Jones is on the hunt for the traitor to the crown. But when it becomes clear that Miss Davies' life is very much in danger, Captain Jones is dispatched to ensure the reluctant debutante travels safely. Escorting her safely home will also give him the perfect opportunity to question Miss Davies about the highly dubious gifts she's been receiving from the French. As Captain Jones becomes the unlikely hero to a very uncooperative damsel in distress, he quickly learns that rescuing Miss Davies is only the beginning of his troubles. One unfortunate compromise leaves this pair with no choice but to head for the altar, and the unnecessary distraction just might ruin his opportunity to uncover the identity of the traitor once and for all.

Please Stand Up (eBook, ePUB)

As millions of people have set out to 'discover their roots,' Keith Mason's family-discovery story is the oddest of all. He unexpectedly finds his unknown father on a video of the classic TV quiz show 'To Tell the Truth' from 1961. In a one-of-a-kind (and completely true) excursion through offbeat chapters of the American parade, Mason's journey brings him through his father's arguably sociopathic life. There were seven marriages that provided the author with eight 'new' brothers and sisters. An unknown grandfather - a crusading reporter - was killed by a corrupt sheriff in a dusty Texas town in 1949, in a press-freedom case that continues to resonate. Emotions collide with each revelation, as the author's lifelong defensive wall collapses and he finally has to take a chance on how he'll be received by every relative he contacts. It's a race against the clock to connect with an older sibling whose mental health might separate them for good. With his father's eventual appearance, Mason's deeply-held feelings about anger and forgiveness are tested. Rich with historic detail and sardonic humor as it delves into the unusual lives of a deep-sea salvage diver, an old-school reporter and an Ohio homicide detective, 'Please Stand Up' is a walk through four generations of an American family who often didn't know each other, either by choice or tragic chance.

Pom Poko

Seit alters her leben in den Tama-Hügeln vor den Toren Tokios die Tanuki - magisch begabte Marderhunde, die Waschbären ähneln. Doch seit einigen Jahren müssen die Tanuki besorgt mit ansehen, wie die Ausläufer der Stadt immer näher an ihre Heimat heranrücken. Nichts scheint die Menschen aufhalten zu können, die mit ihren Maschinen die Wälder roden und auch nicht davor zurückschrecken, die altehrwürdigen Hügel einzuebnen. Unter den Tanuki brechen bald Kämpfe um die immer knapper werdende Nahrung aus. Erst der kampfeslustige Häuptling Gonta, die Stammesälteste Oroku und der oberste Priester Tsurogame können die streitlustigen Waldbewohner davon überzeugen, ihre Kräfte gegen den gemeinsamen Feind zu vereinen. Die Tanuki nutzen ihre Gabe, sich in beliebige Gegenstände zu verwandeln und sogar menschliche Gestalt anzunehmen, um auf den Baustellen und in den Siedlungen der Menschen für Unruhe zu sorgen. Als ihre Versuche, die Eindringlinge auf diese Weise zu vertreiben, scheitern, bereiten die Tanuki eine letzte, große Illusion vor: Eine Geisterparade, mit der sie die Menschen glauben machen wollen, dass ihre neu errichtete Vorstadt verflucht sei. Doch auch dieser Plan wendet sich unerwartet gegen seine Urheber: Ein gewiefter Unternehmer behauptet, die Parade als Werbung für seinen geplanten Freizeitpark inszeniert zu haben. Die Tanuki müssen einsehen, dass sie diesen Kampf nicht gewinnen können. Während einige von ihnen beschließen, künftig als Menschen getarnt in der Stadt zu leben, suchen die anderen in ihrer tierischen Gestalt nach einer neuen Heimat...
