Title: No Scrap Left Behind: My Life Without Food Waste Author: Teralyn Pilgrim Narrator: Teralyn Pilgrim Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 6 hours 48 minutes Release date: November 19, 2024 Ratings: Ratings of Book: 5 of Total 1 Ratings of Narrator: 5 of Total 1 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: Teralyn Pilgrim had no idea the environmental and economic impact of food waste, or that she could save $100 a month by being waste free. But when a story of hungry children fills her with unbearable guilt, she decided to make a change to the way her family approached mealtime. Despite finicky kids and a skeptical husband, Pilgrim turned her feelings of guilt into action and created a zero-food waste kitchen. Pilgrim began her journey by defining food waste with Rule #1: the Hungry Kid Test—would you throw something edible away with a hungry child watching? If the answer is yes, it can go in the compost. If the answer is no, then it's time to get creative. Narrating her trials and errors—emphasis on errors—Pilgrim invites listeners to her table, where leftover food is a personal challenge to reduce waste, save money, and guard against squandering natural resources. Things get tricky when she discovers a five-year-old fish in her freezer, accidentally buys the grossest fat-free cookies in the world, and finds her dog is as picky as the kids. Addressing myths about how being waste-free is too hard (it's not) and whether expiration dates mean anything (they don't), Pilgrim teaches listeners clever ways to be resourceful while also offering a broader look at why food waste matters and the global effects of this massive problem.

Title: Haunted States: An American Gothic Guidebook Author: Miranda Corcoran Narrator: Kimberly Conwell Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 11 hours 40 minutes Release date: October 8, 2024 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: A fusion of travel literature and cultural criticism investigating the dark history of the US and exploring how past horrors – from witch trials to slavery and genocide – continue to haunt the national consciousness. Haunted States is a unique guidebook that explores the dark, often horrifying, history of the US. Based on the author’s journey across the United States in summer 2022, it explores locations connected to Gothic fiction and film, tracking the relationship between the American landscapes and the various forms of fictional horror the nation has produced over the centuries. Part cultural history and part travelogue, Haunted States traces how the American Gothic draws inspiration from the natural and built environments, with the astounding geographical variation of the landscape influencing the distinctive forms of horror produced across its many diverse regions. The book also investigates how the horrors of the American Gothic have their roots in the nation’s dark history of colonialism, slavery, violence and oppression – past sins that continue to haunt the national consciousness to this day. Taking horror (in literature, film and the visual arts) as its starting point, Haunted States investigates the landscapes, places and cultures that produced it. Incorporating first-person travel narrative, historical context and supplementary interviews, Haunted States journeys across the USA to learn about its eclectic, regional forms of horror.

Title: [German] - Lieben - Leben, Band 4 (ungekürzt) Author: Emilia Roig Narrator: Emilia Roig Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 3 hours 18 minutes Release date: September 23, 2024 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: Emilia Roig steht für radikale Veränderung. Ob sie das Ende rassistischer Unterdrückung oder das Ende der patriarchalen Ehe einfordert, es treibt sie die Sehnsucht nach Befreiung und Gerechtigkeit. Auch Lieben ist ein Plädoyer für mehr Gerechtigkeit, denn die Liebe sollte für alle sein. In einer patriarchalen Gesellschaft aber beansprucht die romantische Liebe alle Aspekte dieser Form der Bindung für sich: Begehren, Eifersucht, Intimität, Abhängigkeit, Zärtlichkeit. In ihrem ersten Essay gewährt uns Emilia Roig tiefe Einblicke in die eigene Biografie und revolutioniert dabei unser Verständnis von Liebe: als eine transformative Energie, die uns nicht nur mit unserer Familie und unseren Freund:innen, sondern mit allen Menschen, der Natur und dem Kosmos verbindet. Ihr neues Hörbuch ist eine Einladung zu mehr Solidarität, Empathie und Mut.

Title: [German] - In die andere Richtung jetzt - Eine Reise durch Ostafrika (Ungekürzte Lesung) Author: Dr Navid Kermani Narrator: Jens Harzer Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 8 hours 3 minutes Release date: September 19, 2024 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: Navid Kermani ist vom Süden Madagaskars bis in die Nuba-Berge im Sudan gereist. Behutsam, am einfühlsam beobachteten Detail, ohne große Thesen, lässt er den Osten Afrikas lebendig werden. Aber zugleich, aus neuer Perspektive, denkt Kermani über die Themen auch unserer Gegenwart nach, über Klimawandel, Krieg oder Identität sowie die grundsätzlichen Fragen der Existenz. Bis heute gilt Afrika als der 'vergessene Kontinent', dabei ist es spätestens seit dem 19. Jahrhundert vor allem der umkämpfte Kontinent. Europäische Kolonialmächte haben hier tiefe Wunden hinterlassen. Der arabische Norden trägt seine Religion und Kultur in den Süden, oft mit Gewalt. China und der Westen konkurrieren um Bodenschätze und Einfluß. Vergessen ist Afrika vor allem da, wo es nichts zu holen gibt, etwa auf Madagaskar. Hier haben die Vereinten Nationen die erste Hungersnot deklariert, die vom Klimawandel verursacht wurde. Hier beginnt die Reise, die Navid Kermani für DIE ZEIT unternommen hat. Sie führt ihn weiter über die Komoren, Tansania, Kenia und Äthiopien bis in den Sudan. Wo andere Schriftsteller Ursprünglichkeit suchten, entdeckt Kermani Bevölkerungen und Kulturen in Bewegung, oft auf der Flucht vor Krieg und Dürre. Vor allem aber haben sie schon immer kreativ neue kulturelle Einflüsse aufgegriffen und zu etwas Eigenem gemacht. Das zeigt sich nirgends so deutlich wie in der Musik. Sie bildet den heimlichen roten Faden des glänzend geschriebenen Buches, das einem unwiderstehlichen literarischen Rhythmus folgt.

Aiello Narrator: K.J. Aiello Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 58 minutes Release date: September 18, 2024 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: Revelatory memoir and cultural criticism that connects popular fantasy and our perceptions of mental illness to offer an empathetic path to compassionate care Growing up, K.J. Aiello was fascinated by magical stories of dragons, wizards, and fantasy, where monsters were not what they seemed and anything was possible. These books and films were both a balm and an escape, a safe space where Aiello’s struggle with mental illness transformed from a burden into a strength that could win battles and vanquish villains. A unique blend of memoir, research, and cultural criticism, The Monster and the Mirror charts Aiello’s life as they try to understand their own mental illness using The Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and other stories as both guides to heroism and agency and cautionary tales of how mental illness is easily stereotyped as bad and violent. Aiello questions who is allowed to be “mad” versus “sane,” “good” versus “evil,” and “weak” versus “strong,” and who is allowed to tell their own stories. The Monster and the Mirror explores our perceptions of mental illness in a way that is challenging and tender, empathetic and knowledgeable, and offers a path to deeper understanding and compassionate care.

Title: When God Was a Woman Author: Merlin Stone Narrator: Jo Anna Perrin Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 25 minutes Release date: August 21, 2024 Genres: Social Science Publisher's Summary: The landmark exploration of the ancient worship of the Great Goddess and the eventual supression of women's rites. In the beginning, God was a woman… How did the shift from matriarchy to patriarchy come about? In fascinating detail, Merlin Stone tells us the story of the Goddess who reigned supreme in the Near and Middle East. Under her reign, societal roles differed markedly from those in patriarchal Judeo-Christian cultures: women bought and sold property, traded in the marketplace, and inherited title and land from their mothers. Documenting the wholesale rewriting of myth and religious dogmas, Merlin Stone describes an ancient conspiracy in which the Goddess was reimagined as a wanton, depraved figure, a characterization confirmed and perpetuated by one of modern culture's best-known legends—that of the fall of Adam and Eve. Insightful and thought-provoking, this is essential reading for anyone interested in the origin of current gender roles and in rediscovering women's power. This audiobook is expertly read by Jo Anna Perrin, and was produced and published by Echo Point Books & Media, an independent bookseller in Brattleboro, Vermont.

Portero. «Las mujeres como Carla cambiaron las cosas y nos cambiaron». José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero «Carla representa los sueños vivos de una generación».
