About this listen
Huis van gruwels is die skokverhaal van die sogenaamde “Springs-monster” wat op die wreedste manier denkbaar alles van sy gesin weggeneem het, maar ook ’n storie van hoop oor hoe ’n dapper jong vrou uiteindelik geluk en genesing vind.
Landi is die oudste van vyf kinders wat uit die sogenaamde Springs-gruwelhuis gered is. Sy is nou 21 jaar oud en vertel vir die eerste keer haar verstommende verhaal. In Mei 2014 het die polisie dié huis ontdek waar ’n sadistiese pa sy vrou en vyf kinders vir jare tussen vullis en rotte aangehou, getreiter en gemartel het. In ysingwekkende besonderhede onthou Landi hoe hul pa hulle aangerand, met ’n skokstok geskok, met ’n gaspistool geskiet en met ’n blaasvlam gebrand het, hoe hy martelmetodes nagevors en hulle byna in ’n bad verdrink het.
Sy vertel hierdie herinneringe aan Susan Cilliers, ’n ervare joernalis, wat dit met deernis weergee en dit vernuftig met die feite van die polisie-ondersoek en die hofsaak verweef.
Please note: This audiobook is in Afrikaans.

Story
In Rudie se eerste Kassie Kasselman-roman, Slagyster, ontmoet ons vir Carl Bester, gevalle oudspeurder. In Vloek is Carl terug. Hy kan na SA kom–sy bannelingstatus uitgewis, teen ’n prys. “Ons vergeet jou sondes in ruil vir ’n teenprestasie,” sê sy nuwe werkgewer. Hy moet ’n lykbesaaide saak van internasionale belang help ontrafel. Nou sal hy weer soos ’n volbloedspeurder moet redeneer om dié saak saam met ’n spul rookies op te los.

’n Baie lang brief aan my dogter is Marita van der Vyver, een van Afrikaans se mees geliefde skrywers, se ontroerende jeugmemoires. Dit is 'n speurtog deur die skrywer se beginjare, maar dit is ook ’n liefdesbrief aan ’n dogter en ’n taal en ’n land. En bowenal is dit ’n ma se poging om sin te maak van hierdie onverskillige en wrede wêreld waarin sy haar nou begewe.

Erin se dogter wat op ses verdwyn het, klop 20 jaar later aan haar deur. Maryna praat vlotter Chinees as Afrikaans, sy is grotesk, het ’n daggagewoonte, is stuurs en stil. Erin is nie ’n emosionele mens nie, haar greep op die werklikheid is glibberig en sy praat moeilik oor haar gevoelens. Sy is obsessief oor die man wat haar verlaat het en die jeugvriend wat steeds na haar hunker. Hoe gemaak met die kuiken wat onder haar vlerk uit gesteel is, wat deur vreemdelinge hanteer is sodat sy haar reuk nie meer eien nie, wat grootgeword en tuisgekom het om te broei?

Kassie het geglo sy speurderdae is getel ná die Medusa-pedofielsaak, en sy hartaanval. Maar ses maande tuis bring perspektief - hy is ’n speurder in murg en been. Terug by die Spookeenheid word hy en kollega Rooi Els dadelik by die diep kant ingegooi: Hulle moet ’n reeksverkragter vastrek - een wat sy slagoffers met ’n brandyster merk. Is die skuldige die man wat beskryf word as “’n weerwolf met die sperm van ’n wildehond”? Of lê die antwoord by die spesifieke merk wat hy op sy slagoffers laat?

Kassie Kasselman is kriewelrig. Sy lewe lank poeliesman gewees, maar wragtag, wat hy nóú alles in die media oor sy geliefde SAPD lees. En met sy eie oë sién ook, in kolonel Daniels se kantoor by die Nuweland-stasie. Kassie het juis ’n ander werksaanbod gehad.... En dan moet dit natuurlik só kom dat hy in die middel van sy loopbaankrisis teen die grieseligste moordenaar nóg te staan kom. Die Pion se moordloopbaan het tentakels wat terugstrek na die Apartheidsera, met moderner euwels soos die Afrika-handel in vervalste medikasie wat ook Kassie se aandag verg.

Why have history's greatest minds - from George Washington to Frederick the Great to Ralph Waldo Emerson along with today's top performers, from Super Bowl-winning football coaches to CEOs and celebrities - embraced the wisdom of the ancient Stoics? Because they realize that the most valuable wisdom is timeless and that philosophy is for living a better life, not a classroom exercise. The Daily Stoic offers a daily devotional of Stoic insights and exercises, featuring all-new translations.

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.
