For 15 years the weaver Silas Marner has plied his loom near the village of Raveloe, alone and unjustly in exile, cut off from faith and human love, he cares only for his hoard of golden guineas. But two events occur that will change his life forever; his gold disappears and a golden-haired baby girl appears. But where did she come from and who really stole the gold? This moving tale sees Silas eventually redeemed and restored to life by the unlikely means of his love for the orphan child Eppie.

Delightful narration of an old favorite
Revisado: 09-01-23
Andrew Sachs’ narration is just right for Elliot’s classic tale of community, commitment, and compensation.

To take a skeptical approach to American history is not to dabble in imaginative conspiracy theories; rather, it's to reframe your understanding of this great nation's past and actually strengthen your appreciation for what makes American history such a fascinating chapter in the larger story of Western civilization. And in this bold 24-lecture series, you can do just that.

Interesting and insightful
Revisado: 08-30-23
Helpful synopsis of major threads in American history with appropriate explorations of lesser known influences. Stoler emphasizes inquiry and perspective as helpful tools for rethinking what we think we know of our collective past.

Golden Globe-winning actor Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under) performs Truman Capote's masterstroke about a young writer's charmed fascination with his unorthodox neighbor, the "American geisha" Holly Golightly. Holly - a World War II-era society girl in her late teens - survives via socialization, attending parties and restaurants with men from the wealthy upper class who also provide her with money and expensive gifts. Over the course of the novella, the seemingly shallow Holly slowly opens up to the curious protagonist.

Appropriate narrator

Tender story told with whist fullness and eyes wide open love. Rich and thoughtful. If you have only seen the movie, you haven’t heard the whole story.

Every hero works to soothe the fears of the people during their period in history. Heroes are not only brave, but they’re also able to navigate the convoluted corridors of society, and to see through the respectable pretense of others to detect the evil that lies within. So, who better to take on the foggy, crime-ridden streets and strict social mores of Victorian London than the iconic literary detective Sherlock Holmes? In Sherlock Holmes: Beyond the Elementary, you’ll investigate the history behind Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s whip-smart, charismatic detective.

Ever since he became a Christian at the age of 40, it has been Poirot actor David Suchet's dream to make an audio recording of the complete Bible. In between filming the final episodes of Poirot, David Suchet spent over 200 hours in the recording studio to create the very first full-length audio version of the NIV Bible spoken by a single British actor.

David Suchet’s gentle voice conveys a range of emotions, always communicating clearly. I have listened to this version multiple times - and notice something new each time. Great resource.

New York Times best-selling author Shauna Niequist invites you to look at the landscape of your own life, consider what it might look like to leave behind the pressure to be perfect, and begin the life-changing practice of simply being present in the middle of the mess and the ordinariness of life. Shauna offers an honest account of what led her to begin this journey and a compelling vision for an entirely new way to live: Soaked in rest, silence, simplicity, prayer, and connection with the people who matter most to us.

Self Centered woman talking about her perfect life
Revisado: 01-16-20
Author makes sure that you know that she is a gifted, affluent, well connected author who has lots of friends, a Great Lake house and devoted husband. She goes on lots of vacations, wine lunches and appointments with multiple mentors. Niequist spends lots of energy poetically describing her perfect life and her many talents, with a plea to feel sorry for her because she feels busy as she travels to speaking engagements. Occasional references to prayer and fewer to Jesus but her definition of grace, forgiveness and soul and the general tone of the book would be closer to New Age and mysticism than Biblical Christianity.
