Audible Perfection
Revisado: 07-10-23
A decade of so ago, I devoured all of Josephine Tey’s remarkable procedural mysteries with alacrity. That was my mistake. By reading these stories hurriedly, I missed their genius as novels: especially their exquisite character portrayals. By listening to these stories slowly in Audible, I came to appreciate one of the very best authors of mystery stories in English. In my view, better than Christie or Sayers.

Known and loved worldwide for his teachings on mindfulness and compassion, Thich Nhat Hanh was once nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Martin Luther King, Jr. In Peacemaking, this beloved Zen master returns to the theme that first brought him to the world's attention: peace and how to embody it.

Thich Nhat Hanh‘s Profound Peace-Msking
Revisado: 05-20-23
Thay‘s teachings on peace-making in his own voice are eternally profound. His views on the wars in Vietnam and Iraq carry over into future wars. His insight on peace is powerful.

The snow is thick, the phone line is down, and no one is getting in or out of Warbeck Hall. All is set for a lovely Christmas, with friends and family gathered round the fire, except as the bells chime midnight, a murder is committed. But who is responsible? The scorned young lover? The lord's passed-over cousin? The social-climbing politician's wife? The Czech history professor? The obsequious butler? And perhaps the real question is: Can they survive long enough to find out?

English to its Core
Revisado: 02-27-23
This classic English murder mystery takes place in a secluded English mansion during a Christmas blizzard. If you know your 18th century English history, you can solve the story. A favorite of mine in book format, this Audible narration surpassed the experience.

A Gripping Christmas Mystery
Revisado: 01-16-21
This gripping Christmas mystery is a masterpiece, though it is somewhat flawed by the narrator who does not do well with the many male voices in the tale, though McCadden is superb with the female voices. Two narrators would have been perfect.

It’s the perfect time to curl up in front of a crackling fire with these wintry whodunits from the legendary Agatha Christie. But beware of deadly snowdrifts and dangerous gifts, poisoned meals and mysterious guests. This chilling compendium of short stories - some featuring beloved detectives Hercule Poirot and Miss Marple - is an essential omnibus for Christie fans.

Perfect seasonal solace
Revisado: 01-15-21
This collection from Agatha Christie had several delightful surprises. It opens with an autobiographical memoir of Christmas dinner from Christie herself. And one story in the collection turns out to be in a different genre altogether : a delightful romance in the style of F Scott Fitzgerald. The Christie stories are exquisitely read by Fenella Woolgar. Perfect solace for a winter’s night in the year of the plague.

The best of the Blandings
Revisado: 07-10-20
Of the opera omnia I have read from Wodehouse, this is my favorite Blandings novel from prose to plot. Jonathan Cecil is the perfect narrator, making it even more fun to listen than to peruse, as much as I treasure reading Wodehouse slowly.
