About this listen
La novela tiene lugar en el pequeño círculo aristocrático de Nueva York en la década de 1870, que puede mostrar una línea de antepasados que se remonta a los primeros pobladores. Sólo ellos determinan la vida social de la clase alta. Las reglas tradicionales dictan, sobre todo, a las jóvenes cómo deben comportarse, qué es apropiado y qué no. Son presentados a la sociedad a una edad temprana, se comprometen y se casan como corresponde, sin conocerse realmente. Su vida en el matrimonio también está determinada por estándares de respetabilidad, y la pareja masculina disfruta de mucha más libertad.
Newland Archer, un prometedor abogado, está resignado a conformarse con una vida tranquila junto a su prometida May Welland, una joven adorable pero totalmente convencional. Sin embargo, cuando la condesa Olenksa, la rebelde prima de May, vuelve a Nueva York precedida por los escándalos de su vida amorosa, Newland lo arriesga todo ante la oportunidad de vivir un amor verdadero.

Story
La monumental obra de Marcel Proust (1871-1922), En Busca del Tiempo Perdido es un inmenso retrato de toda una sociedad y es considerada como una de las grandes obras maestras de toda la literature. Como su nobre lo indica, Proust trató de recobrar en su novella en siete volúmenes lo que había sido el ayer y sus personajes están basados en el círculo del autor. La obra en total es un reflejo de uno de los más brillantes análisis de la conciencia que se hayan escrito.

Story
"Crimen y castigo" es un profundo análisis psicológico de su protagonista, el joven estudiante Raskólnikov, cuya firme creencia en que los fines humanitarios justifican la maldad le conduce al asesinato de una usurera. Pero, desde que comete el crimen, la culpabilidad será una pesadilla constante con la que el estudiante será incapaz de convivir. De una manera magistral relata el sufrimiento, los estados de confusión, los sueños y los delirios del protagonista. Así como la redención de un criminal a través del amor.

Story
La primera edicion de "Lolita" apareció en París en 1955, publicada por Olympia Press, una editorial con acreditada gama de pornográfica. La novela fue prohibida en Francia y en Inglaterra, y hasta tres años más tarde no pudo publicarse en Estados Unidos. Aunque enseguida fue muy alabada por escritores como Lionel Trilling y Graham Greene, los adjetivos de "escandalosa", "inmoral", "decadente" y "ultrajante" acompañaron largo tiempo a "Lolita", actualmente ya considerada como una obra maestra indiscutible de la literatura universal.

Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.
