Two hundred years since Jane Austen completed her last novel, Alison Larkin, a witty and always original voice, brings Persuasion and a selection of lesser-known poems by Jane Austen to a new audience.

Cecilia Toussaint nos regala su voz y magnífica narración para contarnos Persuasión, la última novela de Jane Austen. Publicada póstumamente en 1818, presenta un cuadro de familia sumamente austeniano: un viudo pomposo que sólo lee el baronetario, una hija soltera llena de pretensiones...

Award-winning narrator and internationally acclaimed writer/comedienne Alison Larkin brings depth and wit to this rich, hugely entertaining audio production of Jane Austen's last two great novels Northanger Abbey and Persuasion. The novels are followed by The History of England, a short satirical piece in which the teenage Austen writes about the kings and queens of England with less respect (and more wit) than any British newspaper, and Poems, a selection of lesser known, mostly comic verses that Austen wrote to entertain family and friends.

Black Like That is a collection of poems about my experience as a Black woman in America. It reviews what I have learned from living in this skin, on this land, and all the ancestry that has followed me to keep me covered.

Black Like That in all of its iterations is an offering from all the voices in mine that had no space to speak.

Even If weaves a visual and poetic tapestry of faith that is both scrappy and heartfelt.

Her desire is to encourage, inspire, and help others find their way to wholeness of life and freedom from fear.

Today perhaps we all agree that youth is spoilt, ill-disciplined and in search of constant and instant gratification. No matter how much we love them, our children, as they mature from child to youth, are pampered. A century ago, and even further back, even the most privileged of youth was rarely indulged. In this volume we look at those years of youth through the eyes and pens of classic poets. They reveal times of hardship, of fear, of love and loss.

Mercedes, the embodiment of "Love," meets campus Romeo and hip poet, "Bitter," and their whirlwind affair leads to heartbreak as it dawns on him that he, a senior in college, is dating a mere freshman. He takes all lengths to avoid this beauty, inadvertently opening the door for betrayal to move into his territory once he decides to give it a go. Life circumstances and a long talk with his homeboy leads to a bargain. This bargain leaves himself out of Love's life.

Love is universal gift from God. It is there for everyone to experience, soaring gracefully as a dove on the clouds. Without love, life is not lived… experienced to its fullest. Love is both wonderful and challenging. In her latest poetry compilation, Janis I. Monroe captures the varying degrees of love. She starts as a single woman fantasizing of her lover in "Dream Lover", then wondering about the experience of love in "What’s It Like?", and rounding off the poetry book with "Laying Here Waiting For You".

It is human nature to create and compete. Both of these are brought together in sport. Many games began in distant eons and gradually adapted and became codified to those we know today. In this volume we celebrate, through the verse of so many well-known poets, sports of all kinds. Sports for the rich, sports for the poor and all manner in between. As Henry Newbolt would say, ‘Play up, play up, and play the game'.
