Acerca de esta escucha
The Reservoir follows an unexceptional man in an exceptional time. We see our present-day pandemic world and New York City through the eyes of a former Wall Street veteran, Ridley, as he, in his enforced quarantined solitude, looks back upon his life. He examines his wins, his failures, the gnawing questions - his career, his divorce, his estranged daughter - and questions what it all means and who he really was.
Sitting and brooding night after night, gazing out his huge picture window high above the Central Park reservoir, Ridley spots a flashing light in an apartment across the park as if a lonely quarantined person is signaling him in Morse code. His determination to find out who this mystery woman is, this fellow quarantine damsel in distress trapped in her own Fifth Avenue tower, leads him on an epic quest that will ultimately tempt him with either delusional madness or the fulfillment of his own mythic fate. Is he a dying man going mad or an Everyman metamorphosing into a hero? Or both? We accompany Ridley as he leaves the safety of his apartment window to save the Fifth Avenue femme fatale and descends into a dangerous, increasingly surreal world of the global conspiracies, madness, and sickness of this viral time; beyond that, into the enduring mysteries of love and fatherhood; and deeper still, into the bedrock mystery of life itself. As Ridley's actions grow more and more uncharacteristic, he realizes the key to all the mysteries of now and even all of history seem to lie deep beneath the freezing waters of the reservoir.
The Reservoir is a twisted rom-com for our distanced time when the merest touch could kill and conspiracy theories propagate like viruses - a present-day union of Death in Venice, Rear Window, and The Plague.

Historia
Elsie Bovary is a cow, and a pretty happy one at that—her long, lazy days are spent eating, napping, and chatting with her best friend, Mallory. One night, Elsie and Mallory sneak out of their pasture; but while Mallory is interested in flirting with the neighboring bulls, Elsie finds herself drawn to the farmhouse. Through the window, she sees the farmer's family gathered around a bright Box God—and what the Box God reveals about something called an "industrial meat farm" shakes Elsie's understanding of her world to its core.

Charlie Reade looks like a regular high school kid, great at baseball and football, a decent student. But he carries a heavy load. His mom was killed in a horrific accident when he was seven, and grief drove his dad to drink. Charlie learned how to take care of himself—and his dad. When Charlie is seventeen, he meets a dog named Radar and her aging master, Howard Bowditch, a recluse in a big house at the top of a big hill, with a locked shed in the backyard. Sometimes strange sounds emerge from that shed.

Historia
In addition to being among the most celebrated of contemporary filmmakers, Quentin Tarantino is possibly the most joyously infectious movie lover alive. For years he has touted in interviews his eventual turn to writing books about films. Now, with Cinema Speculation, the time has come, and the results are everything his passionate fans—and all movie lovers—could have hoped for. Organized around key American films from the 1970s, all of which he first saw as a young moviegoer at the time, this book is as intellectually rigorous and insightful as it is rollicking and entertaining.

In a time when our political and cultural views feel more polarized than ever, Tyson provides a much-needed antidote to so much of what divides us, while making a passionate case for the twin chariots of enlightenment—a cosmic perspective and the rationality of science. After thinking deeply about how science sees the world and about Earth as a planet, the human brain has the capacity to reset and recalibrates life’s priorities, shaping the actions we might take in response. No outlook on culture, society, or civilization remains untouched.

Historia
In 1986, Paul Newman and his closest friend, screenwriter Stewart Stern, began an extraordinary project. Stuart was to compile an oral history, to have Newman’s family and friends and those who worked closely with him, talk about the actor’s life. And then Newman would work with Stewart and give his side of the story. The only stipulation was that anyone who spoke on the record had to be completely honest. The result is The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man—revelatory and introspective, personal and analytical, loving and tender in places, always complex and profound.

Mad scientists have never had it so tough. In super-hero comics, graphic novels, films, TV series, video games, and even works of what may be fiction, they are besieged by those who stand against them, devoid of sympathy for their irrational, megalomaniacal impulses to rule, destroy, or otherwise dominate the world as we know it. It’s just not fair. So those of us who are so twisted and sick that we love mad scientists have created this guide.

Historia
Mad scientists have never had it so tough. In super-hero comics, graphic novels, films, TV series, video games, and even works of what may be fiction, they are besieged by those who stand against them, devoid of sympathy for their irrational, megalomaniacal impulses to rule, destroy, or otherwise dominate the world as we know it. It’s just not fair. So those of us who are so twisted and sick that we love mad scientists have created this guide.

Miriam Black knows when you will die. Still in her early twenties, she’s foreseen hundreds of car crashes, heart attacks, strokes, suicides, and slow deaths by cancer. But when Miriam hitches a ride with truck driver Louis Darling and shakes his hand, she sees that in thirty days he will be gruesomely murdered while he calls her name. Miriam has given up trying to save people; that only makes their deaths happen. No matter what she does, she can’t save Louis. But if she wants to stay alive, she’ll have to try.

NYPD detective Paul Donner and his wife Elise were killed in a hold-up gone wrong. Fifty years later, Donner is back: revived courtesy of the Shift. Supposedly the unintended side-effect of a botched biological terrorist attack and carried by a ubiquitous retrovirus, the Shift jump-starts dead DNA and throws the life cycle into reverse, so reborns like Donner must cope with the fact that they are not only slowly youthing toward a new childhood, but have become New York's most hated minority.

Fun, fast-paced, and intelligent!
This was a really well-written story that requires your full attention…but it’s well worth it! This isn’t one of those stories where you can pre-occupy yourself with something that will pull your attention away from the story and it won’t be a huge deal. Lol. You have to stay with this one! But luckily it’s not hard, the pacing is fabulous, heart-pounding, and you’ll want to listen hard…you’ll find you haven’t even blinked in like 3mins at times!!! Lol. It’s a cool story and like I said, intelligently written. There were more than a few gems dropped in there that made me smile. You know what I mean. Lines that make you go “THIS, this line right here, is why I read…..how did this author do that?!.” So beautiful, smart, and amazing. I love when that happens in a book. There are a few of those in here but for the most part listen to this one for the story, the fast-paced style, and the perfect performance of Dunchovy. You won’t regret it. SO worth your time. Enjoy!

Thank you David Duchovny
Thank You David Duchovny for putting the nightmare that was 2020 where it belongs, on the pages of a short story that captures the nightmare so succinctly in your beautiful short story. Good job getting all the angst, pain, paranoia and horror that was our reality on to the page as a short story so we can grasp it. I wish I was in a book club so I could discuss all the imagery you wrote.

of course it’s a self indulgent pandemic story, shut up
I was expecting a rough emotional time and it delivered. Great bits of silliness and laughter to alleviate the bitter sting of the reality we’ve lived the last year and change. The murkiness of “is this a delusion or just a strange reality?” tugged at my heartstrings more than I was expecting, because for so many of us, the last year was certainly just a big strange reality that bordered on seeming delusion with no solid, healthy, realistic baseline to center our lives around. And the absolute terror of ultimately not being able to independently distinguish “am I living in the real world?”
It was a joy to listen to DD narrate, the voice and interactions with Ursa tickled me in the worst (and best) ways possible. I’ll need to listen a second time to absorb more of the nuances because I am at best an enthusiastic but hyperactive daydreamer
Thank you for all your efforts and for sharing your artistic visions with us.

Solitude, Sinking and Sweetness
I liked this story more than I expected.
It takes place in New York City in the middle of the pandemic and while it touches on so many uniquely New York experiences, anyone can connect with the feelings of isolation and loneliness. Some of it brought about the by pandemic but some of it also a result of character and choices.
It takes this loneliness and plants it alongside the crises and plages of our time, or more specifically those of New York.
Well done and an easy listen.

Who knew David Duchovny could write like this?
I remember about ten years ago that David Duchovny was accused by some people of icky behavior. I don't recall all the details, but it was enough to make me hesitant to listen to this (or any) audiobook by him. Today, I decided to just get over my prejudices and give it a try. I'm glad I did. This short story demonstrates that Duchovny is a very gifted writer. The story is imaginative and beautifully told from the perspective of an old man who has lived too long in isolation.
