Escaping Culture: Finding Your Place in the World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 238min
Born to a Mexican/Yaqui Indian mother, and Mexican/Anglo father, the author shares life-altering events and the people that shaped his mixed-race “American” experience. For as long as he can remember, identity by choice or force has wrought conflict and contradictions. Who is he? What is he? Where did he come from? Where does he belong? Where is he going? His surname implies he’s white, but his brown skin begs to differ. Is he Mexican? His mother’s family tree most certainly is, but his Father’s Celtic and Iberian branch bears his Anglo surname. Is he more culturally white European than ethnically Latino? Is he a Native American, rooted in his beloved Yaqui abuela? To which ethnic tribe does he belong? The author asks listeners to think of this book as explanatory theater; as a three-act play providing racial and cultural context, commentary, and value to the social paradigms we all share, but often fail to recognize in ourselves and one another. His essays testify, an authentic telling of naivety, consequence, rebellion, and evolutionary awareness. And of life discovered, marinated in an introspective stew of love, fear, indulgence, compassion, humility, and redemption. He intends to affirm and provoke, and open our ears to a world seen through an independent and differently colored lens. Consider his observations a handshake between friends. Let your guard down. Relax in a comfortable chair, have a glass of wine, and listen. He won’t bite. Well, maybe a little. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Ryan Whiting.

It's Pronounced 'Jenkins', Hörbuch, Digital, 53min
And in his new audiobook It's Pronounced 'Jenkins', Alberstadt has a cool confidence in his own humor that ensures the listener they are in safe hands. It's not a cocky confidence and it doesn't come across as condescending. It's simply a confidence that says, "Hey, I know these stories are funny. Check 'em out." It doesn't take long before Alberstadt addresses his less-then-usual name. But instead of dwelling on the many pronunciations of his Germanic surname, he instead points out the absurdity in the fact that he's also had problems with his first name, too. Hence the appearance of "KIF" on his coffee order at Starbucks. Language: English. Narrator: Keith Alberstadt. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/rftp/000075/bk_rftp_000075_sample.mp3.

Never the Bride , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 459min
Brenda has had a long and eventful life, and she has come to Whitby to run a B&B in search of some peace and quiet. She and her best friend, Effie, like nothing better than going out for tea and keeping their eyes open for any of the mysterious goings on in town. But the oddest thing in Whitby may well be Brenda herself. With her terrible scars, her strange lack of a surname, or the fact that she takes two different shoe sizes, Brenda should have known that people, well, unique as she is, just aren’t destined for a quiet life. ungekürzt.

When He Was Wicked
The sixth of Julia Quinn's bestselling and beloved Bridgerton novels, now a series created by Shonda Rhimes for Netflix. This is Francesca Bridgerton's story . . . In every life there is a turning point. A moment so tremendous, so sharp and breath-taking, that one knows one's life will never be the same. For Michael Stirling, London's most infamous bachelor, that moment came the first time he laid eyes on Francesca Bridgerton. After a lifetime of chasing women, of smiling slyly as they chased him, of allowing himself to be caught but never permitting his heart to become engaged, he took one look at Francesca Bridgerton and fell so fast and hard into love it was a wonder he managed to remain standing. Unfortunately for Michael, however, Francesca's surname was to remain Bridgerton for only a mere thirty-six hours longer - the occasion of their meeting was, lamentably, a supper celebrating her imminent wedding to his cousin . . .
