Crimen y castigo es una de las novelas psicológicas de Dostoievski. Su argumento gira en torno a un joven estudiante que no encuentra otra solución para aliviar su pobreza que matar y robar a una vieja usurera. La novela está estructurada sobre un tema ético: el fin no justifica los medios. Se asiste así a un complicado proceso mental durante el cual el estudiante elabora meticulosamente su crimen, sin pensar en las consecuencias directas y materiales que le pueda reportar. Únicamente al final y a través del amor, le llegará el arrepentimiento redentor.

"El hombre en busca de sentido" es el estremecedor relato en el que Viktor Frankl nos narra su experiencia en los campos de concentración. Durante todos esos años de sufrimiento, sintió en su propio ser lo que significaba una existencia desnuda, absolutamente desprovista de todo, salvo de la existencia misma. Él, que todo lo había perdido, que padeció hambre, frío y brutalidades, que tantas veces estuvo a punto de ser ejecutado, pudo reconocer que, pese a todo, la vida es digna de ser vivida y que la libertad interior y la dignidad humana son indestructibles.

Publisher's summary
Escucha ahora esta obra maestra del reportaje del siglo XX por el autor de 1984 y Rebelión en la granja.
«Hay otra sensación que constituye un gran consuelo en la pobreza. Creo que cualquiera que haya pasado apuros económicos la habrá experimentado. Es una sensación de alivio, casi placentera, al saber que por fin estás sin blanca. Has hablado tantas veces de la posibilidad de acabar en el arroyo... y resulta que ya estás en él y puedes soportarlo. Eso te quita muchas preocupaciones.»
Sin blanca en París y Londres es el vívido relato del tiempo que Orwell pasó entre los más pobres de la sociedad, un recorrido por los bajos fondos. Fue la primera obra que publicó Orwell, escrita cuando era un escritor primerizo, y narra su primer contacto con la pobreza. En este audiolibro, Orwell describe meticulosamente un mundo de miseria y penalidades, duerme en hostales infestados de insectos, en casas de acogida, trabaja como friegaplatos en un inmundo restaurante parisino, se alimenta de migajas y colillas de tabaco, vive con vagabundos, un soñador artista callejero y un ex militar ruso muerto de hambre... Al revelar una realidad impactante que hasta entonces permanecía oculta, Orwell dio por primera vez un rostro humano a las estadísticas de pobreza, y además encontró su voz.

The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

How did the Wendels, one of New York’s most famous Gilded Age families, disappear from history? The Wendels built a fortune from New York real estate, and rubbed shoulders with the Astors, Vanderbilts, and Stuyvesants. But as the 19th century came to an end, the Wendel family tore itself apart. Following six years of painstaking archival research, Claire Prentice has prised open the door of the Wendels’ Fifth Avenue mansion—dubbed “the house of mystery” by the press—to reveal a fascinating and dysfunctional family imprisoned in a gilded cage.

Now available for the first time in unabridged audio, the gripping story of this famous and haunting crime is brought to life by acclaimed narrator Scott Brick.

The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.

Buenísimo!
Me ha resultado una lectura impresionante, la manera que tiene Orwell de llevarte de paseo por los bajos fondos parisinos, y enseñarte la pseudo esclavitud que supone la vida de un "plongeur" es sencillamente genial. Considero que Orwell es uno de los escritores con la mente más lúcida y analítica de su generación, un verdadero antropólogo social.

Excelente narración
Muy buena descripción de la vida de pobreza de parte de Orwell.
Las historias que narra son muy entretenidas y te hace comprender la vida del vagabundo
