  “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…” 
  So begins one of Charles Dickens’ most enduring and powerful works. A Tale of Two Cities sweeps listeners into the turmoil of the French Revolution, capturing both the grandeur and the horror of the era. Set between the contrasting cities of London and Paris, this historical masterpiece follows the lives of Charles Darnay, a French aristocrat who renounces his title, and Sydney Carton, a dissolute English barrister whose redemption lies in a profound act of sacrifice. 
  Themes of justice, resurrection, and the brutal weight of revolution collide in a narrative as thrilling as it is moving. With unforgettable characters—Lucie Manette, Madame Defarge, Dr. Manette—and an emotionally charged plot, A Tale of Two Cities remains a landmark of literary history. 
  In this compelling narration by Roger Arnold, Dickens’ voice is brought to life with clarity and passion, delivering an immersive journey through the shadowed streets of Paris and the quiet resolve of London. A must-listen for fans of historical drama, courtroom intrigue, and stories of personal transformation.

  Originally published in October 1927, the second short-story collection published by Pulitzer Prize winner and Nobel Laureate Ernest Hemingway contains the following fourteen stories: The Undefeated In Another Country Hills Like White Elephants The Killers Che Ti Dice La Patria? Fifty Grand A Simple Enquiry Ten Indians A Canary for One An Alpine Idyll A Pursuit Race Today is Friday Banal Story Now I Lay Me Themes and subject matter range from bullfighting, boxing, and prizefighting to divorce, infidelity, and death. Critics at the time praised Hemingway's concise language and powerful prose. Content Warning: As a part of the public domain, Men Without Women is a literary work that reflects the time in which it was published—both its good and its ill. The original text of Men Without Women contains slurs and depictions that represent prejudiced and harmful beliefs regarding race, ethnicity, and religion. To erase or bury this representation of inequity and prejudice would be akin to pretending it never existed, a denial that only perpetuates and extends the original harm done. Thus, in the interest of preserving and documenting both the faults and highlights of literary history—an instrumental, crucial function of works entering the public domain—this text is unedited and uncensored in this audiobook recording. Please proceed with discretion.
