About this listen
El pájaro espino, también conocido como El pájaro canta hasta morir, es, sin duda, uno de los grandes clásicos de la literatura contemporánea.
Adaptada a la pantalla con enorme éxito, esta novela ha cautivado a millones de audiolectores en todo el mundo a lo largo de generaciones.
En esta inolvidable novela, McCullough narra una historia que comienza en 1915 y está llena de sueños, secretos, pasiones oscuras y amor prohibido en el interior de Australia.
En ella asistimos a la gesta de tres generaciones de la familia Cleary, pero sobre todo, somos testigos de la relación sentimental de Meggie con el sacerdote Ralph de Bricassart, un párroco cuya ambición lo lleva a formar parte de los círculos influyentes del Vaticano.
Una historia de amor conmovedora, una apasionante lucha entre el deseo y el deber, la vocación y la pasión, pero también una celebración de la individualidad y el espíritu.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Evie Crowe is starting over in a strange town with her newborn, and men are the furthest thing from her mind. If only the quiet, hulking farmer, Luke Ward, would stop coming into the thrift shop and piquing her reluctant interest. Evie wants to stay single all the way—she can’t trust anything more than friends-with-holiday-benefits. But Luke is in it for the long haul. He’s fixed on making this a Christmas Evie will remember forever. If she gives him a chance.

Story
Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.
