第一帖 桐壺
光源氏 一~十二歳
主な登場人物 桐壺更衣、藤壺
紫のかがやく花と日の光
思ひあはざることわりもなし
時の帝桐壺は、それほど身分の高くない桐壺更衣を寵愛し、二人の間には輝くような美しい皇子が生まれた。しかし、桐壺更衣は他の女たちの嫉妬や嫌がらせを受け、また病気がちであったために三歳の皇子を残して病死してしまう。
その死を嘆き悲しむ帝であったが、亡き桐壺更衣の生き写しのような先帝の皇女藤壺が入内し、帝の寵愛を受けることとなる。そして、帝のもとで育てられてい た皇子は、亡き母によく似ているということで藤壺をことさらに慕うようになった。
その後、元服した皇子は臣下として源の姓を与えられ、左大臣家の娘葵の上と結婚する。彼はその光り輝くような姿の美しさから、いつしか光源氏と呼ばれるようになった。

”国境の長いトンネルを抜けると雪国であった。夜の底が白くなった。” とはじまってゆき、”「この子、気がちがうわ。気がちがうわ。」・・・・” と、終わってゆく。 雪にはじまり、炎におわる、薫りたつような一編。 うつろいゆく愛を描いた、すみずみまで美しくエロティックなこのノーベル文学賞受賞作を、俳優であり、また「『木を植えた人』を聴くプロジェクト」等で知られる朗読家である 榊原忠美が、じっくりとよみあげました。 「伊豆の踊り子」、「奥の細道」に続く、演出家・水城雄とのコラボレーション作品です。時間をかけ満を持してお届けする会心の作品です。 ”・・・踏みこたえて目を上げた途端、さあと音を立てて天の河が島村のなかへ流れ落ちるようであった。” ことのは出版オーディオブック作品一覧はhttp://www.kotonoha.co.jpにて

High Fantasy from the Renaissance

Publisher's summary
父は既に他界し、蒔岡家の全盛は過ぎ、衰えつつあった。
長女の鶴子は婿入りの当主と本家で暮らし、
次女以下の3人は、阪急蘆屋川の分家――幸子の家で生活するのが常となっていた。
幸子夫婦の気がかりは、三女雪子と四女妙子の将来についてだった。
雪子は三十歳になるが、未だ“娘さん”だった。
とはいえ大きな問題を抱えていたからというわけではなく、
大きな原因は、家名にふさわしい相手をという選り好みと、
当人の日本趣味で引っ込み思案な性質にあった。
一方で妙子は奔放で、幼なじみとの色恋沙汰で新聞を賑わせたほどだった。
芸術趣味の彼女には独創の才があり、個展を開くほどになっていた。
金回りも良く、また騒ぎとなった幼なじみとはまだ交際を続けてはいたが、
姉である雪子より先に結婚してはと慮り、現在の関係に留まっていた。
対照的な未婚の妹たち。
幸子の知人友人たちも気をまわし、雪子に縁談を持ちかけてきてはくれるものの、
なかなか良縁には巡り合えない……。
昭和初期という激動の時代のなか、上流階級の日々は流れる。
結婚問題、外国人家族との交流、病気、災害……。
ときに緩やかに、ときに激しく移り変わってゆく、蒔岡家の日常――。
阪神間モダニズム時代の上流大阪人の生活を描いた、谷崎潤一郎の代表作。
谷崎潤一郎

It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

The doorbell rings, just days after my beloved husband’s sudden death. I don’t recognise the woman on our doorstep, with her blonde highlights, a diamond bracelet identical to my own and a bouncing baby boy in her arms. As I show her inside, I notice her eyes grow wide as she takes in our spacious hallway, and the big squashy sofas that we all used to pile on. She glances at the silver-framed family photos and my little daughter hiding behind my skirts. She looks at me, her blue eyes serious. ‘I’m sorry’ she says. ‘I am your husband’s girlfriend. And this is his son.'

When the call came it seemed like the answer to my prayers. My career as a voice actor had been over for months and me and my little girl Scarlet were living back at my mum’s place. I felt like a failure professionally—and with Scarlet having problems at school, as a parent as well. So, when I was asked to narrate a new book by disappeared novelist Philippa Roberts I jumped at the chance, even if it meant leaving Scarlet with my ex, Hugo, for a few weeks. Hugo, with his perfect new home and his perfect new girlfriend Saskia. But this isn’t a dream come true. It’s a nightmare.
