Historia
The Blind Watchmaker, knowledgably narrated by author Richard Dawkins, is as prescient and timely a book as ever. The watchmaker belongs to the 18th-century theologian William Paley, who argued that just as a watch is too complicated and functional to have sprung into existence by accident, so too must all living things, with their far greater complexity, be purposefully designed. Charles Darwin's brilliant discovery challenged the creationist arguments; but only Richard Dawkins could have written this elegant riposte.

Very thorough coverage of supportive thesis
Revisado: 05-03-25
I’m very pleased that Mr. Dawkins has illuminated with great clarity the change from single celled life forms to the complexity we now witness. There was only one moment in the entire book that had me scratching my head to ask, “Why did the author find a need to choose such a strange comment to make?” That was when Mr. Dawkins wrote something to the effect that bodybuilders were engaged in forming freakishly bizarre bodies. I’ve seen Mr. Dawkins and he should be so lucky as to be half a “freakish” as even the least endowed athlete.

Historia
When his mother became President, Alex Claremont-Diaz was promptly cast as the American equivalent of a young royal. Handsome, charismatic, genius—his image is pure millennial-marketing gold for the White House. There's only one problem: Alex has a beef with the actual prince, Henry, across the pond. And when the tabloids get hold of a photo involving an Alex-Henry altercation, U.S./British relations take a turn for the worse.

The reading contained various local and ethnic accents which was surprising and welcome to hear.

Revisado: 05-16-23
As a gay man myself and having lived through the same sort of prejudices and circumstances as the book’s main character, I could not be more overjoyed that Mr. Louis has opened his soul to the public in this way.
I am still only at an intermediate level in my French language studies. So, having the opportunity to read something in English which is this close to heart, while listening to the French audio version simultaneously was a real boon for expansion of my foreign language vocabulary, particularly the manor of speaking which deals with taboo subjects and common language of everyday French youth as it was treated in this story.
I recommend this book and the Audio version, both. It was a fascinating and enlightening read.

New Jersey, aujourd'hui. Pour surveiller sa baby-sitter, Maya a installé une caméra dans son salon. Un jour, un homme apparaît à l'écran, jouant avec sa petite Lily. Un homme que Maya connaît bien : Joe, son mari... qu'elle vient d'enterrer. Un choc. Et de troublantes découvertes : le certificat de décès de Joe a disparu et l'arme impliquée dans sa mort est aussi celle qui a coûté la vie à la sœur de Maya trois ans plus tôt.

What is the nature of space and time? How do we fit within the universe? How does the universe fit within us? There's no better guide through these mind-expanding questions than acclaimed astrophysicist and best-selling author Neil deGrasse Tyson. But today, few of us have time to contemplate the cosmos. So Tyson brings the universe down to Earth succinctly and clearly, with sparkling wit, in digestible chapters consumable anytime and anywhere in your busy day.

Historia
Nathaniel Bainbridge is used to hiding, whether it's concealing his struggles with reading or his forbidden desire for men. Under the thumb of his controlling father, the governor of Primrose Isle, he's sailing to the fledging colony, where he'll surrender to a respectable marriage for his family's financial gain. Then pirates strike and he's kidnapped for ransom by the Sea Hawk, a legendary villain of the New World. Bitter and jaded, Hawk harbors futile dreams of leaving the sea for a quiet life, but men like him don't deserve peace. He has a score to settle with Nathaniel's father.

Very entertaining. But, look out! This might give pirates everywhere a bad reputation. 😁 The different characters' voices were very well done.

Historia
In the first book of this brilliant series, Stephen King introduces listeners to one of his most powerful creations: Roland of Gilead, The Last Gunslinger. He is a haunting figure, a loner on a spellbinding journey into good and evil. In his desolate world, which frighteningly mirrors our own, Roland tracks The Man in Black, encounters an enticing woman named Alice, and begins a friendship with the boy from New York named Jake.

Not exactly what I expected from Mr. King
Revisado: 07-08-20
I prefer to spend my time reading works which make sense in some way. Whether that sense is the be able to reasonably imagine a version of the story actually occurring or work that builds from some point and each subsequent piece fits nicely into the preceding sections. But, I am at a loss at the end to understand what was to be gained by spending a great deal of time listening to incoherent (but wonderfully descriptive) words. Sorry for the most part that this was not for me nor was it one of Mr. King's best efforts.

"Tempête en juin" décrit par le menu l'Exode, et ce traumatisme qui arracha le masque social de bien des gens, dévoilant veulerie ou courage, égoïsme ou générosité. Dans "Dolce", l'auteur dissèque le calme apparent régnant dans la petite ville de Bussy, l'ambigüité des liens qui lient sa population et les occupants, puis les tensions nées des premières actions de la Résistance.
