   The Palace of Eros by Caro De Robertis

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/712239 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/712239) to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Palace of Eros Author: Caro De Robertis Narrator: Caro De Robertis Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 50 minutes Release date: August 15, 2024 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: 'A brilliant and luminous writer’ MADELINE MILLER, author of THE SONG OF ACHILLES and CIRCE Theirs was a love that defied the gods… GLOWING READER REVIEWS ‘A beautiful story about the power of autonomy’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ‘Heart-wrenching, hard-hitting, beautifully written, sumptuous, poetic, romantic, and (because Eros is the goddess of desire) utterly scorching in places’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 'A gorgeous retelling, and one I will no doubt read again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ‘Overall, stunning prose, incredible chemistry, gorgeous characters, just a beauty of a retelling!’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ‘I cannot tell you how much I loved this, there will never be enough words to describe how much I enjoyed the experience of reading this (and believe me there were many tears involved)’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Young, headstrong Psyche has captured the eye of every suitor with her beauty – but also, unfortunately, the jealous gaze of the goddess Aphrodite. As punishment, Psyche is tied to a rock to be sacrificed to a ‘monstrous husband’. And yet, no monster arrives: instead, she is spirited away by Aphrodite’s daughter Eros. Eros, goddess of desire, can change gender at will. And in her hidden palace, she visits her bride under the cloak of darkness: Psyche is forbidden to gaze upon the face of her lover. But as they explore each other’s bodies and discover new pleasures, Psyche is tempted to break her vow… even if it brings down the wrath of the gods. A gloriously anarchic and seductive retelling of the myth of Psyche and Eros, groundbreaking, gender-fluid and hugely enjoyable, this is a masterpiece from Caro De Robertis, a writer described by Madeline Miller as ‘brilliant and luminous’. The Palace of Eros was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 19/08/24

   The Brothers Karamazov: (Bicentennial Edition) by Fyodor Dostoevsky

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/712532 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/712532) to listen full audiobooks. Title: The Brothers Karamazov: (Bicentennial Edition) Author: Fyodor Dostoevsky Narrator: Ben Miles Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 42 hours 16 minutes Release date: May 7, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 4.25 of Total 8 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 3 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: This program is read by renowned English actor Ben Miles, best known for his narration of Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall trilogy. “Ben Miles's English accent is perfect for the text of this recent, award-winning translation. He delivers narrative sections in a consistent tone, and his expression is perfect…An excellent match of voice and text.”—AudioFile Winner of the Pen/Book-of-the-Month Club Translation Prize The award-winning translation of Fyodor Dostoevsky's classic novel of psychological realism. The Brothers Karamazov is a murder mystery, a courtroom drama, and an exploration of erotic rivalry in a series of triangular love affairs involving the “wicked and sentimental” Fyodor Pavlovich Karamazov and his three sons—the impulsive and sensual Dmitri; the coldly rational Ivan; and the healthy, red-cheeked young novice Alyosha. Through the gripping events of their story, Dostoevsky portrays the whole of Russian life, is social and spiritual striving, in what was both the golden age and a tragic turning point in Russian culture. This award-winning translation by Richard Pevear and Larissa Volokhonsky remains true to the verbal inventiveness of Dostoevsky’s prose, preserving the multiple voices, the humor, and the surprising modernity of the original. It is an achievement worthy of Dostoevsky’s last and greatest novel. A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.

   Winifred Holtby: A BBC Radio Collection: South Riding, Anderby Wold, The Crowded Street and more by Winifred Holtby

   Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/708834 (https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/708834) to listen full audiobooks. Title: Winifred Holtby: A BBC Radio Collection: South Riding, Anderby Wold, The Crowded Street and more Author: Winifred Holtby Narrator: Alison Fiske, Claire Goose, Joseph Peters, Alice Arnold, Sarah Lancashire, Joanna Mackie, Derek Smith, Philip Glenister, Hugh Dickson, Full Cast, Anna Massey, Carole Boyd Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 51 minutes Release date: December 14, 2023 Genres: Classics Publisher's Summary: Full-cast adaptations of three of Winifred Holtby’s best-known novels, plus short stories and bonus programmes about the author Winifred Holtby was an acclaimed novelist, journalist, feminist and social reformer. Her work encompasses six novels, two short story collections, a play and the first critical study of Virginia Woolf, but she is best known for her posthumously published masterpiece South Riding, which won the James Tait Black Memorial Award. She died in 1935, aged just 37. Born into a Yorkshire farming family, Holtby set much of her fiction in the landscape of her youth, including the three novels in this collection. Adapted as a 15-part radio drama, South Riding follows the lives and loves of fiery young headmistress Sarah Burton, landowner and school governor Robert Carne, and alderwoman Mrs Beddowes. Sarah Lancashire, Philip Glenister and Carole Boyd star in this rich, memorable evocation of a community in flux. Anderby Wold tells the tale of a farmer’s wife, a radical young writer and a village rocked by social change. Dramatised from Holtby’s 1923 debut novel, it stars Joanna Mackie, Derek Smith and Joseph Peters. The Crowded Street, set in the years leading up to World War I, centres around a woman's journey from introspective teenager to self-fulfilled adult. Claire Goose stars as heroine Muriel Hammond in this poignant coming-of-age drama. Wry, witty and irreverent, Holtby’s short stories reflect the diversity of her writing. 'The Celebrity Who Failed', read by Alice Arnold, features a girl who learns to walk on water – but is unprepared for the public attention that follows. 'Why Herbert Killed His Mother' is the story of a beautiful baby who turns out to be very different as an adult. A searing condemnation of ‘mother love’, it is read by Anna Massey. And in 'The Voice of God', read by Hugh Dickson, a radio-like machine enables people to listen in on the conversations of historical figures – but what will happen once the newspapers get to hear of it? Finally, Holtby’s life, legacy and significance are explored in a Woman’s Hour biographical segment and in a revealing radio portrait, The Divided State, written by Valerie Windsor and featuring Alison Fiske as Winifred Holtby.
