Sinopsis

This unique edition of Anton Chekhov's collected novellas and short stories has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices.
Excerpt:
"Life is a vexatious trap; when a thinking man reaches maturity and attains to full consciousness he cannot help feeling that he is in a trap from which there is no escape."Ward No. Six (1892)
Anton Chekhov (1860-1904) was a Russian physician, dramaturge and author who is often referred to as one of the seminal figures in the birth of early modernism in the theatre. He made no apologies for the difficulties he posed to the readers, insisting that the role of an artist was to ask questions, not to answer them.

    My name is James Jackson and I enjoy spanking naughty girls of all ages. Ivy is my wonderful and very understanding wife who encourages me to spank whoever I want, as long as there's no intercourse. This is the fourth audiobook in my spanking autobiography. In the first, I was introduced to extramarital spanking by my wife and her friend Bridget, and in the second, I was lucky enough to spank Kate Anderson to help her change her attitude and awful behaviour. In the third, I spanked Evelyn and her naughty daughter Emma. In this audiobook, you will meet Nikki, a twenty-four-year-old who is looking for some parental guidance. My wife and I took on the roles of Aunty Ivy and Uncle James. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did. I would encourage you to listen to the first audiobooks in this series first, but you don’t have to if that's not your thing.

    Joseph Conrad – An Introduction. Born in 1857 in Poland, Joseph Conrad became a British citizen just before he turned 30.  In the intervening years he lost both parents; becoming an orphan at 11 being thereafter raised by an uncle, who at 16 let the boy go to Marseille where he began to work on merchant ships though at times it included stints gun running and the intrigue of political conspiracy.  At age 36 his life turned from one of ships to one of literary pursuit.  Conrad brought to English Literature both a further layer of style and a deeper examination of the human psyche in a wealth of work. He wrote many novels, rightly regarded today, as some of the finest in English literature.  Among their canon are Lord Jim, Nostromo, The Shadow Line and of course Heart Of Darkness.   For this volume we dwell among his numerous short stories and the heart of Joseph Conrad. These stories are read for you by Richard Mitchley.

    A New York Times Editors’ Choice short story collection hailed as “a fresh masterpiece of Southern fiction . . . touching, haunting and brilliant” (Dallas News).   Long considered a master of the form and an essential voice in American fiction, Michael Knight delivers a “deft and wonderful, wholly original” collection of interlinked stories set among the members of a Mobile, Alabama family in the years preceding a devastating hurricane (The New York Times Book Review).   Grappling with dramas both epic and personal, from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill to the “unspeakable misgivings of contentment,” Eveningland captures with perfect authenticity of place the ways in which ordinary life astounds us with its complexity.   A teenaged girl with a taste for violence holds a burglar hostage in her house on New Year’s Eve; a middle-aged couple examines the intricacies of their marriage as they prepare to throw a party; and a real estate mogul in the throes of grief buys up all the property on an island only to be accused of madness by his daughters.   These stories, infused with humor and pathos, excavate brilliantly the latent desires and motivations that drive life forward in “a luminous collection from a writer of the first rank” (Esquire).
