  Do you know a super shy guy? Some guy who appears to have it all together, except for one thing – he can’t talk to women? That’s the problem, Jim, the protagonist of “Super Shy Guy” by Mark Laughlin has. He joins a local book club to try and come to meet people and come out of his shell a bit, and gets a serious crush on Nancy, a stunning brunette. What happens next?

  • Jim confides in his work friend Debbie, a cute girl herself. 
  • Jim tries, but fails, to impress Nancy. 
  • Nancy gives up on Jim and a new guy enters the picture.

  • Jim seems to be getting over Nancy by dating another girl. 
  • It turns out that the super shy guy may not be so shy after all...

  The Poetry Of Hell - An Introduction. It is often said that two things are unavoidable; Death and Taxes. Certainly the latter is a common thorn in adult life but as to the former it seems that for many people it is merely a hiccup in Life’s eternal journey. A journey they wish, if being of good deed and character, to share at the eternity of Heaven’s largesse, a reward for Faith and the obligations of Religion. Of course for those not so fortunate an altogether different experience was prepared for them; Hell. Its nightmare visions so terrifying conjured up by Dante, Milton, Blake, Baudelaire and many others.   If Faith is your companion it is a very realistic world to avoid.  As though gathered here will testify in their rich verse. Among our readers are Richard Mitchley and Ghizela Rowe.

Flash-forward to 2000, and the apartment, now much shabbier, reflects how the family’s fortunes have changed, and the Bascovs now have to reckon with the legacy of their family discord. An L.A.

  Waiting for Godot

  Samuel Beckett, one of the great avant-garde Irish dramatists and writers of the second half of the twentieth century, was born on 13 April 1906. He died in 1989. He won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969. His centenary will be celebrated throughout 2006 with performances of his major plays, but the most popular of them all will be, without doubt, the play with which he first made his name, Waiting for Godot. It opened the gates to the theatre of the absurd as four men appear on the stage, apparently with purpose but (perhaps) waiting for someone called Godot. It is stark, funny, bemusing and still deeply affecting half a century since its first production. In this new recording for audiobook, John Tydeman, for many years head of BBC Radio Drama, takes a fresh look at one of the milestones in Western drama. It follows the highly acclaimed recordings of Beckett’s Trilogy, Molloy, Malone Dies and The Unnamable published by Naxos AudioBooks.
