Synopsis

In the blood-soaked streets of Paris during the French Revolution, even a whisper of betrayal can mean death. In the Rue Monge follows one of the Scarlet Pimpernel's most daring missions, as Sir Percy Blakeney plunges once more into the heart of revolutionary terror. When an innocent aristocrat faces the blade of the guillotine, Percy must employ all his wit, cunning disguises, and reckless courage to outsmart the relentless Revolutionary guards. But in the narrow, twisting alleys of the Rue Monge, danger lurks at every corner — and even the smallest mistake could mean exposure. Rich with suspense, romance, and Orczy's trademark flair for high-stakes intrigue, this tale captures the essence of the Scarlet Pimpernel legend: that even in an age of cruelty, one man's daring could inspire hope.

    In a small Michigan town, in the late 1950s, the widow Etta Klein—wealthy and Jewish—has for more than thirty years relied for aid, comfort, and companionship on her Black housekeeper Harriet Gibbs. Between "Aunt Harry" and Etta, a relationship has developed that is closer than a friendship, yet not quite a marriage. They are inseparable, at once absurdly unequal and defined by a comic codependence. 
     
     
     
    Forever mourning the early death of her favorite son, Sargent, Etta has all but adopted Aunt Harry's nephew, the precocious, gay seventeen-year-old Oliver, who has been raised by both women. Oliver is facing down his departure to college—and fending off the advances of Etta's cook, Nella Mae—when the household is disrupted by the arrival of a self-proclaimed "warlock," one Maurice LeFleur, who has convinced Etta and Harry that he might be able to contact Sargent in the afterlife . . . 
     
     
     
    Ladies of the Rachmaninoff Eyes was the debut of the extraordinary Henry Van Dyke, whose witty and outrageous novels look back to the sparkling, elaborate comedies of Ronald Firbank and forward to postmodern burlesques like Fran Ross's Oreo. 
     
      
     
    Contains mature themes.

    Inner Paths to Outer Space

    This audiobook is a collective exploration of a bold idea: that the worlds accessed in visionary states—especially those triggered by psychedelics like DMT, ayahuasca and psilocybin—may be genuine “spaces” of experience that tell us something real about consciousness and, possibly, about other forms of life or intelligence. Rather than treating psychedelic visions as mere hallucinations, the authors argue that these inner journeys can function as “inner paths” toward what we usually think of as “outer space”: other dimensions, other minds, and other layers of reality.
