Story
Als Josef K. eines Morgens aufwacht wird er überraschend verhaftet. Von einer mysteriösen Behörde soll ihm der Prozess gemacht werden. Im Laufe der Kapitel gerät K. in ein alptraumhaftes Labyrinth einer surrealen Bürokratie. K. dringt immer tiefer in dieses System ein, er erfährt Verschiedenes über die Hierarchien der "Gerichte", doch nie gelangt er zur höchsten Instanz, nie erfährt er, worin seine "Schuld" besteht. Gleichzeitig dringt das System immer weiter in K.s Leben ein. Schließlich muss er erkennen, dass der "Sinn dieser großen Organisation, dieser korrupten Bande", der Sinn dieses geheimnisvollen Prozesses die "Sinnlosigkeit" ist...

Story
Georg Bendemann hat einen Bekannten in Russland, der vor langer Zeit dorthin gezogen ist. Sie stehen in Briefkontakt. Der Freund ist vereinsamt und Georg hat Mitleid mit ihm. Deshalb verschweigt er dem Freund lange die geplante Hochzeit, um diesen nicht noch unglücklicher zu machen, bis er sich eines Tages dazu durchringt. Er erzählt seinem Vater von dieser Entscheidung, welcher darauf sehr unerwartet reagiert: Er wirft ihm vor, den Freund vertrieben, den Vater hintergangen, und sich nur um sein eigenes Glück gekümmert zu haben. Der Vater verdammt seinen Sohn zum Tod des Ertrinkens, woraufhin Georg das Urteil des Vaters selbst vollstreckt.

Story
Auf einer Schiffsreise von New York nach Buenos Aires kommt der Ich-Erzähler dem arroganten Schachweltmeister Mirko Czentovic erst nahe, als sich dieser bereit erklärt, gegen alle Hobbyspieler gemeinsam eine Partie zu spielen. Als diese schon verloren scheint, greift ein Dr. B. in das Spiel ein und holt gegen Czentovic noch ein Remis heraus. Durch Dr. B.s seltsames Spielfieber neugierig gemacht, will der Ich-Erzähler mehr von ihm erfahren. Daraufhin berichtet ihm Dr. B. von seiner monatelangen Einzelhaft im Wiener Gestapo-Gefängnis, wo er dem Irrewerden nur dadurch entkam, dass er aus einem entwendeten Schachbuch Meisterpartien nachspielte.

Story
Der Roman spielt im 6. Jahrhundert vor Christus in Indien und handelt von einem jungen Brahmanen namens Siddhartha und seinem Freund Govinda. Von seinem Vater und anderen Priestern lernt dieser über die Veden, deren philosophische Gedanken, religiöse Gebote und Anleitungen zu Gebeten und Ritualen. Weil er sieht, wie diese trotz heiliger Waschungen und Gebete zur Reinigung von den Sünden nicht aus dem Samsara entkommen, widmet er sein Leben der Suche nach dem Atman, dem All-einen, das in jedem Menschen ist.

Publisher's summary
Anlässlich des 100. Todestages von Franz Kafka erscheint bei DAV seine wohl berühmteste Erzählung: Die Verwandlung. Sie handelt von Gregor Samsa, einem Handelsreisenden, der eines Morgens in der Form eines riesigen Ungeziefers erwacht und hilflos miterleben muss, wie sich seine Mitmenschen Stück für Stück von ihm abwenden. Martin Reinke, Ernst August Schepmann und andere Sprecher:innen erwecken den zeitlosen Klassiker in dieser Hörspielversion, produziert vom NDR, zu neuem Leben.

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
As the daughter of a drug dealer, Wavy knows not to trust people, not even her own parents. It's safer to keep her mouth shut and stay out of sight. Struggling to raise her little brother, Donal, eight-year-old Wavy is the only responsible adult around. Obsessed with the constellations, she finds peace in the starry night sky above the fields behind her house until one night her stargazing causes an accident. After witnessing his motorcycle wreck, she forms an unusual friendship with one of her father's thugs, Kellen, a tattooed ex-con with a heart of gold.
