We're featuring this audio book of the ancient Indian Hindu text on human sexuality, love, and spirituality: The Kama Sutra.
Written in about 200 CE, this work of Sanskrit literature by Indian philosopher Vatsyayana consists of prose, poetry, and aphorisms. While most known for being a sexual manual, much of the work is a guide on the nature of love, family life, and other aspects of pleasure in human life.
The Kama Sutra is an ancient Indian text widely considered to be the standard work on human sexual behavior in Sanskrit literature. It is over 1,700 years old, yet it remains a best seller to this day. Part of the reason, of course, is its incredible advice and creativity in the art of loving. But it is much more than that.
The book goes way beyond sexual advice in discussing how to achieve Dharma, the acquisition of religious merit; Artha, the acquisition of wealth and property; and, of course, Kama, or how to achieve pleasure and sensual gratification. In addition, the book is a fascinationg look at the customs and lifestyle of an ancient civilization.
This unabridged editon of the famous Sir Richard Francis Burton translation of The Kama Sutra includes only the most essential translator's notes and comments, so that the words and thoughts of Vatsyayana may be easily understood.

The Communist Manifesto, Marx and Engels' revolutionary 1848 summons to the working classes, is one of the most influential political theories ever formulated.
After four years of collaboration, the authors produced this incisive account of their idea of Communism, in which they envisage a society without classes, private property or a state. They argue that increasing exploitation of industrial workers will eventually lead to a revolution in which capitalism is overthrown. Their vision transformed the world irrevocably, and remains relevant as a depiction of global capitalism today.
In these five novellas, written specifically for Christmas, Dickens combines his concern for social ills with the myths and memories of childhood and traditional seasonal lore.
A Christmas Carol, the first of the selection, has become a touchstone of English festive fiction and an enduring favourite internationally. Repeatedly adapted, parodied, staged and filmed, this richly influential tale is powerfully vivid and moving.
The other stories, The Chimes, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Battle of Life and The Haunted Man, blend whimsy, sentiment, comedy, satire, the didactic and the fantastic, developing the themes of joy, giving, and individual and social regeneration.
Full chapter listing:
- Chapters 2 to 9: A Christmas Carol
- Chapters 10 to 15: The Chimes
- Chapters 16 to 20: The Cricket on the Hearth
- Chapters 21 to 25: The Battle of Life
- Chapters 26 to 30: The Haunted Man
The Battle of Life is the fourth in a series of five stories that Dickens wrote for the festive season.
The novella takes place in a fictional English village and depicts the battles we face in life and how we may overcome them. Unlike Dickens' other stories, The Battle of Life does not have any supernatural reference but does share themes of generosity and joy during the festive season with the other Christmas books.
First published in the 1920's, The Prophet is perhaps the most famous work of religious fiction of the twentieth century, and has sold millions of copies in more than twenty languages.
Utterly unique and beloved around the world, The Prophet is a collection of twenty-six poetic essays by the Lebanese artist, philosopher and writer Khalil Gibran. Telling the story of the prophet Al-Mustafa and his conversations with various acquaintances as he returns home after a long absence, the book touches on subjects of universal concern, including love, friendship, passion, pain, religion and freedom.
Set in Yukon Territory, Canada during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush, Jack London's White Fang is a gripping tale about a domesticated dog trying to survive in the wild. Dealing with other complex themes such as redemption and morality, White Fang is an incendiary story that examines humanity through the viewpoint of a wild wolfdog.
In the House of the Seven Gables, Nathaniel Hawthorne explores themes of guilt, retribution, and atonement in a New England family and colors the tale with suggestions of the supernatural and witchcraft. An evil house, cursed through the centuries by a man who was hanged for witchcraft, is haunted by the ghosts of its sinful dead and wracked by the fear of its frightened living. The story was inspired by a gabled house in Salem belonging to Hawthorne's cousin Susanna Ingersoll and by those of Hawthorne's ancestors who played a part in the Salem Witch Trials of 1692. Written as a follow-up to The Scarlet Letter, The House of the Seven Gables is truly a masterful blending of the actual and the imaginary.
White Fang is the life story of a wolf that comes, after many hardships dealt him by both man and nature, to live a dog's life with a loving master. White Fang was published in 1906 and became an immediate commercial success. It continues to be popular a century after its initial publication. In its unblinking portrayals of nature's unforgiving harshness, of humankind's capacity for both shocking brutality and unconditional love, and of the struggle for survival that is common to all life, White Fang is classic London.
Captured by pirates, Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe makes his break in a small boat and undergoes desperate adventures before winning his way back to civilization. But Crusoe proves willing to chance his luck a second time when, after sweating his way to prosperity as a planter in Brazil, he undertakes another voyage and is marooned on a small island off South America. With the supplies he's able to salvage from the wrecked ship, Crusoe eventually builds a fort and creates a kingdom for himself by taming animals, gathering fruit, growing crops, and hunting, and spends more than two decades in isolation before acquiring a sidekick-the man Friday.
There is no limit to Mark Twain's inventive genius, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn must be pronounced the most amusing book he has written in years. The best proof of Twain's range and originality is found in this book, in which the reader's interest is so strongly enlisted in the fortunes of two boys and a runaway slave that he follows their adventures with keen curiosity, although his common sense tells him that the incidents are as absurd as they are fantastic. Huckleberry Finn is a tour de force, in which the most unlikely materials are transmuted into a work of literary art. - The San Francisco Chronicle, March 15, 1885.
