  A tale of love, life, and finding your way home... 
  At age nine, as Susanna sat on a horse for the first time, an unbreakable bond was forged. It set the stage for a lifelong odyssey for this determined girl and her devotion to her equine companions. 
  From lush Brazilian rainforests to serene Swedish farms, from thrilling British derby banks to the picturesque wine hills of France, this is a story that spans continents, careers, and crossroads. From driven Olympians to bold bullfighters, from kind horsemanship trainers to daring jumpers, each character who crossed her path shone a light on who she yearned to be. 
  But as she took the road less traveled, Susanna found herself fighting the constant pressure to fit the norm and perform. She battled the societal traps of who she was expected to be, but, in the end, through her bond with her horse, she found a way to break free. When she did, she found herself living her dream life, even before she knew what it entailed. 
  Horse Girl is an enchanting memoir of a woman and her unwavering connection to her horses. It’s a tale of love, life, and finding your way home.

  With the age of voyages of discovery in the 15th century, the curtain of history slowly came down on the late Middle Ages. Portuguese and Spanish seafarers set out to remeasure the dimensions of the earth. Numerous spices and fruits, which we would hardly be able to do without today, found their way to Europe for the first time. Columbus discovered America in 1492 on his quest for India. Six years later, it was left to Vasco da Gama to travel through the sea route to India sought by Columbus on the eastern route around Africa. Finally, in 1519, the Portuguese Magellan, commissioned by the Spanish crown, attempted the boldest act in the history of seafaring: the first circumnavigation of the world. It was the result of his quest for a western sea route to the riches of Southeast Asia and India. In brilliant language, peppered with historical facts, the writer Stefan Zweig pays tribute to Magellan's seafaring achievements and gives the listener an insight into a time full of dramatic upheavals. While Magellan was fighting the treacherous seas of the oceans, the Reformation was already getting under way in Europe. This audiobook is based on the translation by Robert Nusbaum (2021) of the original book „Magellan – Ein Mann und seine Tat“.

  Transcending beliefs and borders, Niaz Qureshi's On Foot from Pakistan to Germany recalls one man's trek from East to West in the 1960s. This memoir explores a rapidly widening spectrum of human culture at a time of modern and traditional Schism. Commandingly retold by Nick Ellsworth and scored by Farida Gasser, this audiobook brings Qureshi's journey to life with all the vividness of a Sir David Attenborough documentary. However, On Foot from Pakistan to Germany also reminds of the present. Qureshi's journey is still undertaken by many today under less appealing circumstances, and his writing offers you a chance to experience what a mighty expense of energy is needed to bridge such an expanse of space.
