Acerca de esta escucha
Winner of the 2016 St. Louis Writer's Guild short story contest.
A washed-up musical composer has one last chance to be remembered as one of the greats. In his glory days, Malcolm's career was built on his ability to transfer his emotions into his songs, feeding them to his listeners and losing them forever. After years of not feeling, he now has enough of himself back to either live in peace or to perform his masterpiece. The Rhythmancer must choose to love or to sacrifice his humanity on the altar of fame.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 639
The inimitably witty David Rakoff, New York Times best-selling author of Don’t Get Too Comfortable, defends the commonsensical notion that you should always assume the worst, because you’ll never be disappointed. In this deeply funny (and, no kidding, wise and poignant) audiobook, Rakoff examines the realities of our sunny, gosh everyone-can-be-a-star contemporary culture and finds that, pretty much as a universal rule, the best is not yet to come, adversity will triumph, justice will not be served, and your dreams won’t come true.

Ten-year-old Nem has just witnessed her mother's brutal murder and her life appears destined for tragedy. Until, that is, she finds her mother‘s old green journal which holds an incredible secret. This innocent looking book seems to contain the power over luck. As she uses it, Nem discovers the diary keeps a strange kind of karmic balance, that in gifting someone good fortune she must steal another's first. All it takes is a simple entry. There's dangers though, and not just for others but also for Nem.

What would you change about your past if you had the chance? What if you didn't have a choice? Stevie Geller doesn't do conflict. She likes her job as a successful novelist and playwright because it allows her to peacefully ensconce herself in her New York City loft, avoid human interactions, and leave personal drama for the page and stage. When her agent asks her to return to her hometown of Darlington, Illinois, to accept an award, she agrees only because he promises the process will be quick and easy.

So begins Chloé Cooper Jones’s bold, revealing account of moving through the world in a body that looks different than most. Jones learned early on to factor “pain calculations” into every plan, every situation. Born with a rare congenital condition called sacral agenesis which affects both her stature and gait, her pain is physical. But there is also the pain of being judged and pitied for her appearance, of being dismissed as “less than.”

It's the last day of 1984, and 85-year-old Lillian Boxfish is about to take a walk. As she traverses a grittier Manhattan, a city anxious after an attack by a still-at-large subway vigilante, she encounters bartenders, bodega clerks, chauffeurs, security guards, bohemians, criminals, children, parents, and parents to be in surprising moments of generosity and grace. While she strolls Lillian recalls a long and eventful life that included a brief reign as the highest paid advertising woman in America - a career cut short by marriage, motherhood, divorce, and a breakdown.

When journalist Steve Lopez sees Nathaniel Ayers playing his heart out on a two-string violin on Los Angeles' skid row, he finds it impossible to walk away. More than 30 years ago, Ayers was a promising classical bass student at Juilliard - ambitious, charming, and also one of the few African-Americans there - until he gradually lost his ability to function, overcome by schizophrenia.
Over time, the two men form a bond and Lopez imagines that he might be able to change Ayers' life. The Soloist is a beautifully told story of devotion in the face of seemingly unbeatable challenges.

She doesn’t know if things with her husband Mark are truly over, or quite why the phone call she longs for on her daughter’s birthday will never come. Joining a letter-writing club seems like a harmless decision. But when she meets Ned, an ex-soldier badly wounded in Afghanistan, this unlooked-for friendship revives unexpected emotions and memories she’d rather forget.

Amazing short story... would love a series
I Love This Story... It's complete and yet I want more! It feels like a series could easily come from it. Can't wait to hear the next book.
The language after the opening built anticipation and felt so natural to the character. I could see the story play out in my mind's eye and when that happens both writer and voice character have created something special. Thank you.

Unique, gripping, and emotional.
The Rythamancer is unlike anything I have read (or listened to) before. Nathan Beck introduces us to a world of music and magic that is subtle and echoes a story much larger than this one tale. Not only is it compelling in its universal quest to find meaning and loose oneself in accomplishments, but it also gives the listener insight into the magic of creation and the beauty of composing music firsthand.
Alex Freedman delivers the work with skill and provides a perfect setting to experience this work. His skill with voices and flow made listening to this short quite possibly more enjoyable than simply reading.
If you haven't read it, I highly recommend. And if you haven't already started, please write more in this series!
