Story
"Încercat-am sa înteleg de unde vin lacrimile si m-am oprit la sfinti. Sa fie ei responsabili de stralucirea lor amara? Cine ar sti? Se pare însa ca lacrimile sunt urmele lor; dar fara ei nu stiam ca plângem din regretul paradisului. As vrea sa vad o singura lacrima înghitita de pamânt... Toate apuca, pe cai necunoscute noua, în sus. Numai durerea precede lacrimile. Sfintii n-au facut altceva decât sa le reabiliteze." (Emil CIORAN)

Story
Doua idei fixe nu pot sta concomitent laolalta în mintea omului, asa dupa cum doua corpuri nu pot ocupa acelas loc în spatiu, în acelas timp. Trei, sapte si asul alungara repede chipul batrânei moarte din închipuirea lui Hermann. Trei, sapte si asul nu-i ieseau din minte si-i reveneau mereu pe buze. Când vedea o fata tânara, spunea: Cât e de zvelta!... Un adevarat trei de cupa. Daca era întrebat cât e ceasul, raspundea: Sapte fara cinci minute. Toti barbatii burduhanosi îi reaminteau de as. Trei, sapte si asul îl însoteau în somn, luând diferite înfatisari.

Story
A fost odată ca niciodată un prinţ, nu mai mare, dar nici mai mic decât un băieţel ca toţi băieţeii, care trăia singur pe o planetă mititică, departe de Pământ. Și poate că nu i-am fi aflat povestea dacă într-o bună zi pe planeta lui n-ar fi răsărit, pe nepusă masă, o floare. Iar floarea a prins să vorbească cu micul prinţ, și vorbele ei l-au încântat și l-au întristat în aceeași măsură, fiindcă i-au dezvăluit că dincolo de lumea așa cum o știe el se află încă multe-multe alte lumi.

"Textul lui Mateiu Caragiale e scris pentru acele momente din viata fiecarui om, în care trecutul e mai important decât actualitatea, voluptatea mai importanta decât adevarul, miresmele închipuite sau visate - mai importante decât realul. E o apoteoza a placerii, cu extazele si abisurile ei pline de primejdii.Am citit acest text pentru a ma bucura, crepuscular, de farmecul irezistibil al lucrurilor care nu exista." Andrei Plesu

"Ne mândrim în asemenea masura cu Eminescu, încât aproape ca nu mai simtim nevoia sa-l citim. Ni se pare ca îl cunoaștem. Nu e el ilustrarea suprema a virtutilor nationale? Nu e el justificarea noastra în absolut? Numai ca, redus la efigie, la poza de manual, poetul risca sa fie uitat. Eminescu nu înseamna doar Luceafarul, Scrisoarea a III-a, Somnoroase pasarele sau Pe lînga plopii fara soș. E mult mai mult si e altfeldecât l-am fixat în memoria noastra. E grav, dar se si joaca, e trist, dar poate fi si binedispus, e solemn si profetic, dar poate sa fie si ironic sau plictisit. Asta am încercat sa arat prin versurile pe care am ales sa le citesc pentru dumneavoastra." (Andrei PLESU)

Tarile si natiunile sunt diferite. Asemanatoare si diferite. România intra si ea, fireste, în acest joc al asemanarilor si deosebirilor. Nu cumva este totusi si mai diferita? Cu alte cuvinte, nu se situeaza oare mai "excentric", sub tot felul de aspecte, în raport cu ceea ce ar fi o medie sau o relativa normalitate europeana? Modul extravagant în care s-a derulat psihodrama politica din vara anului 2012 a lasat impresia ca tara e defecta.

Story
Razvan Vasilescu citind povestirile lui Cehov, sensibile si pline de umor, despre oameni simpli si intamplarile lor complicate, pare ca vine chiar din secolul XIX. Si nu vine singur, aduce cu sine un arhivar devenit celebru cu ocazia unui accident provocat de betie, o guvernanta mototoala care este supusa unui test cinic, un functionar care, impins de aburii betiei, ii cere socoteala fostului sau sef, un batran demn si important nevoit sa solicite ajutor pentru nepotul sau neispravit, un functionar sfrijit care se ploconeste in fata fostului sau coleg, ajuns om mare, o actrita ingenua care asteapta declaratia unui comic sacait insa de lipsa unui pahar de vodca, un contraamiral care este invitat la o nunta doar datorita rangului sau, un croitor care traieste din hazul amintirilor, acceptandu-si resemnat umilinta de dragul lor, un raufacator inocent care nu intelege ce fatalitate l-a adus in sala de judecata.

"Trebuie, mai întâi, sa va spun ca va citesc acum un capitol din cartea mea care se numeste Amintiri din pribegie. [...] Capitolul pe care vi-l citesc este ultimul din aceasta carte si, de fapt, este dincolo de pribegie, fiindca e vorba de socul întoarcerii mele în tara, dupa o absenta de patruzeci si cinci de ani. Eram în momentul acela la Paris, secretar general al unei institutii românesti benevole care se numea Casa Româneasca, si, impresionati peste masura de ce se întâmplase la Bucuresti în decembrie 1989, am hotarât sa venim la Bucuresti cu niste masini, aducând în tara lucruri care lipseau partidelor, universitatilor.

Nu se poate sa nu te întrebi, din cînd în cînd, cum se face ca cei virtuosi au necazuri, în vreme ce pacatosii o duc bine. si, în definitiv, cum se împaca portretul unui Dumnezeu bun, iubitor, milostiv, cu existenta ubicua a raului în lume. Acestea sunt întrebarile Cartii lui Iov. Ea nu vine cu raspunsuri ultime. Dar îsi arata ca, punîndu-si asemenea întrebari, esti într-o buna si veche companie. Si ca, pîna sa ai un raspuns, te poti bucura de o capodopera a poeziei vechi-testamentare.

"S-a întâmplat la un moment dat ceva iesit din comun. Miracolul Occidentului. Ar fi putut sa nu se întâmple? Cine poate sti? S-a ivit o civilizatie altfel decât celelalte, care a împins omenirea pe drumul unde se afla astazi. Aroganta Occidentului a fost pe masura. În raport cu "ceilalti", puterea lui a atins o cota înspaimântatoare. Ne dam seama astazi ca a fost doar o faza a istoriei. Dar a putut sa para - atât de mare ajunsese sa fie distanta - ca e un dat fundamental al unei umanitati ierarhizate." (Lucian BOIA)

Story
"Când sunt prost dispus, ceea ce mi se întâmpla destul de des, din varii motive, rasfoiesc culegerile de perle de tranzitie ale lui Radu Paraschivescu. Comicul enorm, la limita dezastrului (logic, lexical, gramatical, cultural), al acestui monument de brambureala si impostura valaha are efectul paradoxal de a ma întrema. Avem, carevasazica, resurse de umor (fie si involuntar), avem înca resurse de vitalitate animala din care, cine stie, vor rasari, cândva, si florile gingase ale normalitatii!"
Publisher's summary
"M-am oprit, dintr-o fireasca impartire istorica, din necesitati practice, dar si din admiratie si uimire, la a doua jumatate a secolului 19, mai ales la anii de dupa venirea lui Carol. Pentru proaspata Romanie, atunci a inceput totul. Si inceputul mi s-a parut a fi cel mai frumos, cel mai semnificativ, la nivelul istoriei mari si mici deopotriva."

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Visiting her family's South Carolina estate, socialite Gray Godfrey wakes from a night out to an empty bed. Her husband, Paul, is gone, and a thrashing hangover has wiped her memory clean.

And Gray may not want him found. Her life is unraveling. When a stranger named Annie calls claiming to know Paul's whereabouts, Gray reluctantly accepts her help.

Story
This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.
