Die Mitternachtsbibliothek (Ungekürzte Lesung)

Stell dir vor, auf dem Weg ins Jenseits gäbe es eine riesige Bibliothek, gesäumt mit all den Leben, die du hättest führen können. Buch für Buch gefüllt mit den Wegen, die deiner hätten sein können. Hier findet sich Nora Seed wieder, nachdem sie aus lauter Verzweiflung beschlossen hat, sich das Leben zu nehmen. An diesem Ort, an dem die Uhrzeiger immer auf Mitternacht stehen, eröffnet sich für Nora plötzlich die Möglichkeit herauszufinden, was passiert wäre, wenn sie sich anders entschieden hätte. Jedes Buch in der Mitternachtsbibliothek bringt sie in ein anderes Leben, in eine andere Welt, in der sie sich zurechtfinden muss. Aber kann man in einem anderen Leben glücklich werden, wenn man weiß, dass es nicht das eigene ist?

Matt Haig (Author), Annette Frier (Narrator)

The Comfort Book - Gedanken, die mir Hoffnung machen (Gekürzt)

Die hier versammelte Gedanken, Erinnerungen und Beobachtungen sind mal Ausdruck von Verzweiflung, mal voller Hoffnung - den Autor selbst haben sie durch die schwere Zeit seiner Depression getragen und ihm Halt gegeben. Dabei zeugen sie nicht nur von einem tiefen Verständnis seiner eigenen Gefühlswelt, sondern sind zugleich so berührende wie anregende Erkenntnisse darüber, was uns alle in unserem Innersten verbindet. Matt Haigs Hörbuch ist ein täglicher Begleiter, der uns zeigt, dass wir nicht allein sind, wenn der Schmerz unerträglich scheint und uns wieder die schönen Seiten des Lebens sehen lässt.

How to Stop Time

"A quirky romcom dusted with philosophical observations….A delightfully witty…poignant novel." -The Washington Post "She smiled a soft, troubled smile and I felt the whole world slipping away, and I wanted to slip with it, to go wherever she was going… I had existed whole years without her, but that was all it had been. An existence. A book with no words." Tom Hazard has just moved back to London, his old home, to settle down and become a high school history teacher. And on his first day at school, he meets a captivating French teacher at his school who seems fascinated by him. But Tom has a dangerous secret. He may look like an ordinary 41-year-old, but owing to a rare condition, he's been alive for centuries. Tom has lived history--performing with Shakespeare, exploring the high seas with Captain Cook, and sharing cocktails with Fitzgerald. Now, he just wants an ordinary life. Unfortunately for Tom, the Albatross Society, the secretive group which protects people like Tom, has one rule: Never fall in love. As painful memories of his past and the erratic behavior of the Society's watchful leader threaten to derail his new life and romance, the one thing he can't have just happens to be the one thing that might save him. Tom will have to decide once and for all whether to remain stuck in the past, or finally begin living in the present. How to Stop Time tells a love story across the ages-and for the ages-about a man lost in time, the woman who could save him, and the lifetimes it can take to learn how to live. It is a bighearted, wildly original novel about losing and finding yourself, the inevitability of change, and how with enough time to learn, we just might find happiness.
