The complete BBC radio adaptations of Alexander McCall's bestselling series. Inspired by Armistead Maupin's Tales of the City, 44 Scotland Street started life as a serial in The Scotsman. It was a huge hit, and was soon novelised, adapted on stage and dramatised for BBC Radio 4. Collected here are all five radio series, in which we follow the interconnected lives of the residents of adjoining flats in a tenement in Edinburgh's Georgian New Town.

New Nigeria is a good, clean, all-American town. The husbands are smiling and handsome, the wives are strong, rich, and powerful, and Nat Turner High is the best public school in the state. Yet, the citizens of this idyllic community find themselves in a rapidly changing country and, to be perfectly honest, some of them are a teeny bit uncomfortable with it all.

Monty Python star and medieval historian Terry Jones presents ten BBC Radio dramatisations of tales from Giovanni Boccaccio's humane and comic masterpiece

It has been suggested that the universe is still growing at the speed of light, as it is infinite. I believe that it would be safe to say that as long as there is light in the world, that darkness will never again cover the earth. Light = Illumination and Enlightenment, and the only reason there is any darkness at all is because the first-man Adam chose to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Light in relationship to creation was called Day.

Or why people fall down under the spirit's power, but are often no different when they get up?

In Kansas and Missouri, the War Between the States started long before Fort Sumter and continued on throughout the war. Some say it is still being fought. My first book in this series, Under a Bloody Flag, deals with that early conflict. Shortly after Kansas was admitted to the Union as a free state, these two states and the nation as a whole were plunging into a declared war. Too much had happened for either side to see a peaceful way to solve sectional differences.

In Kansas and Missouri, the War Between the States started long before Fort Sumter.

For Massachusetts-born Rebecca Styles, who comes to Kansas to insure freedom for slaves, the choice is easy.

This book is a satire on self-help books. As a writer of self-help books, you can become disillusioned with people who are unable to change even when they really want to. Therefore, I have written this book for all those jerks, assholes, and, generally speaking, miserable people that are comfortable with where they are at but still dream of changing. This book is for them, to all those "Miserable Assholes"! Now for those who know what a satire is, this book is to ridicule and scorn those into changing by seeing what a mess they really are.

"In unserem Mittelgang liegt eine Flugbegleiterin auf dem Rücken. Ihre Brüste werden von dem halb aufgerissenen Hemd bedeckt, sie sind so prall, als würden sie jeden Moment bersten. Ihre Beine sind gespreizt. Vier Männer lecken sie. Gleichzeitig. Nasse, hungrige Zungen nehmen ihren Unterleib in Besitz und schlürfen um die Wette. Es ist tierisch und leidenschaftlich. Die Männer reiben sich am Boden, fassen sich und sie an. Einer hat seine Finger tief in ihrem Anus, ein anderer drückt ihren Schenkel und ein dritter bohrt die Hände in ihre Schamhaare."
