   Thrilling Cities: Fourteen Cities Seen Through the Eyes of Ian Fleming, the Creator of James Bond by Ian Fleming

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/680535 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/680535) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Thrilling Cities: Fourteen Cities Seen Through the Eyes of Ian Fleming, the Creator of James Bond Author: Ian Fleming Narrator: Barnaby Edwards Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 7 minutes Release date: September 24, 2024 Genres: Essays & Anthologies Publisher's Summary: A CAPTIVATING JOURNEY AROUND THE WORLD FROM THE CREATOR OF JAMES BOND Ian Fleming’s world travels and interests, as well as his journalism and wartime experiences, lent authority to everything he wrote. In 1959, the Sunday Times commissioned Fleming to write a series of dispatches from the world’s most beguiling locales. The result was Thrilling Cities, a masterpiece of well-observed travelogue that stands ably alongside the author’s Bond canon. From Hong Kong to Honolulu, New York to Naples, he left the bright main streets for the back alleys, abandoning tourist sites in favor of underground haunts, and mingling with celebrities, gangsters and geishas. The result is a series of vivid snapshots of a mysterious, vanished world from a twentieth century Western perspective. Just like his most famous fictional creation, Ian Fleming was a well-traveled man of the world who knew where to go to find excitement, adventure…and danger. In Thrilling Cities, he takes us along on a journey of international intrigue worthy of James Bond.

   Yorùbá Boy Running by Biyi Bandele

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/673850 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/673850) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Yorùbá Boy Running Author: Biyi Bandele Narrator: Chiwetel Ejiofor Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 7 hours 15 minutes Release date: July 4, 2024 Genres: Essays & Anthologies Publisher's Summary: Brought to you by Penguin. Yorùbá Boy Running charts Samuel Ajayi Crowther's miraculous journey from slave to liberator, boy to man, running to resisting 'Run, Àjàyí, run!' The day the Malian slave traders invaded the Nigerian town of Òsogùn, thirteen-year-old Àjàyí's life was split in two. Before, there was his childhood, surrounded by friends and family, watched over by the ancient Yorùbá gods of forest and water, earth and sky. After: capture, slavery - and release, into the service of a new god, his own culture left far behind. So Àjàyí becomes Samuel Crowther - missionary, linguist, minister - and abolitionist: driven to negotiate against his own people to end the miserable trade in human beings which destroyed his family. Drawing on the prolific writings of Samuel Ajayi Crowther, Biyi Bándélé has created a many-voiced, kaleidoscopic portrait of an extraordinary man. From the heart-stopping drama of Àjàyí's last day of freedom to the farcical intrigue of the Òsogùn court; from a meeting with Queen Victoria; to his consecration as the first African Bishop of the Anglican Church, his journey, like all great odysseys, circles back to where he began. By turns witty, moving and quietly political, Biyi Bándélé's reimagining of Crowther's life is a brilliant tour de force. WITH AN INTRODUCTION FROM WOLE SOYINKA 'A true artist. A brilliant writer. An original thinker' Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie ‘Biyi Bándélé had a prolifically talented and creative mind, shown in everything he touched. Yorùbá Boy Running is no exception’ Chiwitel Ejiofor ©2024 Biyi Bandele (P)2024 Penguin Audio Cover artwork Chris Ofili, Blind Leading Blind, 2005 © The artist.

A true delight.” —Nicola Harrison, author of Hotel Laguna Washington Post Best Book of April * PureWow Best Book of Summer * Woman's World Best Book of the Week It’s 1961, and for Margo Hightower, everything is about to change. True, her engagement is off, her family has fallen in scandal, and she's completely broke.

From the bright beaches of Acapulco to glitzy parties in New York, Margo is thrown headfirst into the glamorous jet-set world she so covets, observing its ways from behind the camera as Slim’s sidekick. There’s Jackie Kennedy, Truman Capote's Swans, a host of Vanderbilts. Beautiful people in beautiful places. But when they land in Palm Beach, a scene with few rules and many riches, the lines between work and play begin to blur. As Margo becomes swept up in the city’s social circle—and into a friendship with heiress and rising fashion designer Lilly Pulitzer—the golden life seems increasingly in reach. Until she finds herself entangled in a complicated web of loyalties and secrets that could bring it all crashing down… Don't miss Michelle Gable's other riveting novels:  - The Bookseller's Secret - The Lipstick Bureau
