Summary

Love isn't always simple. And desire never follows the rules.

From the celebrated author of White Fang and The Call of the Wild, Jack London turns away from rugged wilderness and into the wild terrain of the human heart. In The Little Lady of the Big House, London explores love, identity, and emotional conflict in a way few writers of his time dared.

Paula Forrest—modern, intelligent, and alluring—is caught between the affections of two extraordinary men: her successful husband and a passionate outsider. What unfolds is a sensual, psychologically rich story of freedom, temptation, and the price of inner truth.

💬 "Surprising, bold, and emotionally resonant—this is Jack London as you've never read him before."
✨ More than a romance, this is a deep meditation on the complexity of relationships in a changing world.

    Step into the industrial heart of 19th-century England with Charles Dickens' powerful social critique, Hard Times. In this compelling tale, Dickens explores the stark realities of a society driven by utilitarianism, class division, and the relentless demands of industry. This story unfolds in the fictional mill town of Coketown, where human compassion is overshadowed by cold calculation and where the struggles of the working class clash with the ambitions of the wealthy. 
Meet Thomas Gradgrind, a strict and fact-driven schoolmaster whose rigid philosophy of life affects his family and community in profound ways. As the lives of his children, Louisa and Tom, intersect with those of mill workers like the resilient Stephen Blackpool and the lively Sissy Jupe, Dickens weaves a rich tapestry of human resilience, love, and the longing for a better world. 
With vivid characters, biting satire, and an unflinching examination of social inequality, Hard Times remains a timeless classic that resonates with modern audiences. This audiobook brings Dickens' masterful prose to life, offering an engaging and thought-provoking listening experience. Perfect for lovers of literary classics and those seeking a deeper understanding of humanity’s enduring struggles, Hard Times is a must-hear journey into the soul of Victorian England.

    Here is one of twelve magnificent stories, originally part of The John Cheever Audio Collection, in which John Cheever celebrates—with unequaled grace and tenderness—the deepest feelings we have. 
As Cheever writes in his preface, ""These stories seem at times to be stories of a long-lost world when the city of New York was still filled with a river light, when you heard the Benny Goodman quartets from a radio in the corner stationery store, and when almost everybody wore a hat.""
