    Summary:
    På omkring otte år gik Sophia Amoruso fra at være ludfattig anarkistisk friganer til en velhavende forretningskvinde. I "Girlboss" fortæller hun sin historie for at lære andre, kommende girlboss'er at stille spørgsmål og ikke tage noget for givet. En girlboss skal vide, hvornår man skal følge reglerne, og hvornår man skal omskrive dem. En girlboss styrer sit eget liv. Hun får, hvad hun vil have, fordi hun arbejder hårdt for det. "Girlboss" er Sophia Amorusos historie. Hun er stifter og ejer af Nasty Gal samt modedesigner. Hun stiftede Nasty Gal som 22-årig, og i en periode blev Nasty Gal den hurtigst voksende virksomhed i USA, uden at hun nogensinde havde lånt en cent. Hun er i dag en af de rigeste kvinder i verden... ©2017 Gyldendal (P)2017 Gyldendal

    Summary:
    Brian Cuban was living a lie. With a famous last name and a successful career as a lawyer, Brian was able to hide his clinical depression and alcohol and cocaine addictions - for a while. Today, as an inspirational speaker in long-term recovery, Brian looks back on his journey with honesty, compassion, and even humor as he reflects both on what he has learned about himself and his career choice and how the legal profession enables addiction. His demons, which date to his childhood, controlled him through failed marriages and stays in a psychiatric facility, until they brought him to the brink of suicide. That was his wake-up call. This is his story. Brian also takes an in-depth look at why there is such a high percentage of problematic alcohol use and other mental health issues in the legal profession. What types of therapies work? Are 12-step programs the only answer? Brian also includes interviews with experts on the subject as well as others in the profession who are now in recovery. The Addicted Lawyer is both a serious study of addiction and a compelling story of redemption.

    Summary:
    Everyone tells stories on dates. Sometimes we tell these stories to make people laugh. Sometimes we tell them to make people think. Sometimes we tell them so we can increase the chances we'll see the other person naked. Paul Shirley's stories are about an adulthood spent all over the world: living in Spain, playing in the NBA, and having his heart (and spleen) broken. But they're also stories about growing up in small-town Kansas: triumphant spelling bees, catastrophic middle school dances, and a Sex Ed. class taught by his mother. They're funny stories. They're vulnerable stories. Most of all, they're universal stories, just as the stories we tell on dates should be.

    Author: Baird T. Spalding
    Narrator: Clay Lomakayu
    Format: Unabridged
    Length: 4 hrs and 25 mins
    Language: English
    Release date: 10-16-17
    Publisher: Clay Miller
    Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

    Summary:
    In presenting The Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East, I wish to state that I was one of a research party of 11 persons that visited the Far East in 1894. During our stay - three and a half years - we contacted the Great Masters of the Himalayas, who aided us in the translation of the records, which was of great assistance in our research work. They permitted us to enter into their lives intimately and we were thus able to see the actual working of the great Law as demonstrated by them. We call them Masters, which is merely our name for them. One living the life described herein is entitled to reverence and consideration as a Master. Records and manuscripts - our actual experience with the Masters - were preserved. Personally, at that time, I thought the world was not ready for this message. I was an independent member of the research party and I am now publishing my notes under the title The Life and Teaching of the Masters of the Far East, with the thought that the [listener] may accept or reject, as he wishes. This book gives the first year's experience of the expedition in relation to the Masters. It includes their teaching, which was taken by us stenographically at the time, with their permission and approved by them.

    Title: The Bush

    Narrator: Don Watson
    Format: Unabridged
    Length: 13 hrs and 16 mins
    Language: English
    Release date: 10-13-17
    Publisher: Bolinda Publishing Pty Ltd
    Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

    Summary:
    An enthralling journey, showcasing Watson's trademark literary gift and sardonic wit, through the Australian landscape and character. While most Australians live in cities clinging to the coastal fringe, our sense of what an Australian is, or should be, is drawn from the vast and varied inland called the bush. But what do we mean by 'the bush', and how has it shaped us? Starting with his forebears' battle to drive back nature and eke a living from the land, Don Watson explores the bush as it was and as it now is: the triumphs and the ruination, the commonplace and the bizarre, the stories we like to tell about ourselves and the national character, and those we don't. A milestone work of memoir, travel writing and history, The Bush takes us on a profoundly revelatory and entertaining journey through the Australian landscape and character.

    Summary:
    Den norske journalist og forfatter Åsne Seierstads enestående evne til at komme helt tæt de personer, hun portrætterer, og samtidig beskrive en af samtidens store konflikter, foldes atter ud - nu i bogen "To Søstre". I den har Åsne Seierstad på nærmeste hold fulgt en norsk-somalisk families opløsning, da de to søstre i familien lader sig hverve som Jihad-brude i Kalifatet. En oktoberdag i 2013 forlader søstrene Ayan og Leila deres hjem i en lille norsk by. Da det sent om aftenen går op for familien, at døtrene ikke kommer hjem fra skole, er det for sent. Pigerne er på vej til Syrien. Deres far rejser efter pigerne i en desperat jagt på at finde dem. "To søstre" er en stærk familiefortælling om at prøve at finde sin egen identitet i en anden kultur. Det er samtidig et globalt samtidsportræt, hvor verdens kulturelle- og religiøse sammenstød mere og mere insisterende banker på døren, også i en lille norsk by. ©2017 Gyldendal.

    Title: Riding the Rails
    Author: Errol Lincoln Uys
    Narrator: Pam Rossi
    Format: Unabridged
    Length: 9 hrs and 36 mins
    Language: English

    Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Personal Memoirs

    Summary:
    At the height of the Great Depression, 250,000 teenagers were roaming America. Some left home because they felt they were a burden to their families; some fled homes shattered by the shame of unemployment and poverty; some left because it seemed a great adventure. Whether with the blessings of parents or as runaways, they hit the road and went in search of a better life. By summer 1932, the "roving boy" had become a fixture on the American landscape. The occasional girl was sighted, too, most passing unrecognized in male garb. Girls especially did not make the decision to hit the road lightly, for they were stepping into a world filled with danger. It was the same for young African-Americans, for whom the beckoning rails could be doubly perilous. One of the vital, neglected sagas of America in the 1930s, the story of the boxcar boys and girls has seldom been told. Riding the Rails draws primarily on letters and oral histories of 3,000 men and women who hopped freight trains, their incredible journeys an unforgettable and moving story. We see the decade of the Great Depression entirely through the eyes of young people surviving a landscape of ruin, growing up fast in speeding boxcars, living in hobo jungles, begging on the streets and running from the police and club-wielding railroad guards. Riding the rails was a rite of passage for a generation of young Americans which profoundly shaped their lives. Self-reliance, compassion, frugality, and a love of freedom and country are at the heart of the lessons these they learned. Their memories are a mixture of nostalgia and pain; their later musings still tinged with the fear of going broke again. At journey's end, the resiliency of these survivors is a testament to the indomitable strength of the human spirit. It is also an inspiration to all who share a nostalgia for the road and the freedoms sought there.
