Sinossi

The Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport is bigger than the island of Manhattan. More than seventy million people pass through DFW each year. In Newcomers, five new people arrive at the airport. But they are not starting a vacation or traveling. They come to work. These young people emigrated from Bangladesh, China, Ghana, and Mexico. Some drive buses. Others sell coffee, books, and clothes. And some rub your aching neck and feet in day spas. Travelers pass by them without a second look. Yet their lives are challenging and complex. These employees become friends as they struggle to learn a new culture and understand a very confusing world of work.

    A Goddess Reborn 
    Erotic Mythology has everything the horny reader could want. In this volume, we’ve got two journeys starring both clever and proud women. Maybe a little too proud. As they travel, they’ll learn many lessons that will humble their spirits and strengthen their resolve. And redden their asses. 
    Pheme has been sent to the Minotaur’s labyrinth as a sacrifice. She thinks herself clever with her plan to escape, but there are beings wiser than she in the maze. Beings smarter and hornier. Around every corner, there could be pleasure, torment, surprise, and even death in the lair of the Minotaur. Watch your step– there are monsters here. 
    Aida is determined to become the next High Priestess of a love goddess. The only way to do so is to descend into the underworld and fight her way through trials loosely based on Egyptian legends of the afterlife. The only way to get out is to ascend, and the only way to ascend is to pass each test and satisfy every demand in every way she knows how. And she knows lots of ways to satisfy. 
    A priestess sworn to a goddess of love and sex is determined to rise to the rank of the high priestess. But before she can ascend, she must descend deep into the underworld to face trials that will take all her skills to pass. 
    Aken, the ferryman, will take great persuasion. Isis and Nephthys promise pleasure but lay a trap. Ammit, the devourer, has no mercy. 
    These tests will take her to the heights of pleasure and the depths of pain. The only way out is to be reborn.

    Two EM Forster Classics - A Room...

    Collected here are two E.M. Forster classics: "A Room With a View" and "Howards End," each a stand-alone masterpiece and both celebrated as among the finest novels of early 20th century literature.  In the first, "A Room With a View" we follow the travels - both abroad and romantically - of young Lucy Honeychurch, who kindles a flirtation while on vacation in Italy, but then returns home to find herself in a passionless engagement. When the young man who stirred her heart in Florence becomes her neighbor in England, Lucy is faced with a dilemma: Break off her engagement to the society-approved Cecil Vyse or....follow her heart with the dashing George Emerson.  In "Howards End" (considered by many to be Forster's finest work), we meet three families: the idealistic Schlegels, the fabulously wealthy Wilcoxes and the impoverished Basts. When Ruth, the ailing matriarch of the Wilcox family, secretly bequeaths her beloved country house Howards End to Margaret Schlegel, it launches a series of events - including family strife, infidelities, and a secret pregnancy - which threaten to destroy all three families.  Long hailed as one of the most brilliant and beloved authors of the Edwardian era, E.M. Forster's works have become among the most critically acclaimed and cherished novels of the past hundred years and have been adapted numerous times for the stage and screen.  "A Room With a View" and "Howards End" are presented here in their original and unabridged formats and narrated by renowned audiobook performer Sara Nichols, best known for her readings of Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre," Willa Cather's Prairie Trilogy and Dorothy Parker's "Sunset Gun."
