  Edmund Emil Kemper III (born December 18, 1948) is an American serial killer convicted of murdering seven women and one girl between May 1972 and April 1973. Years earlier, at the age of 15, Kemper had murdered his paternal grandparents. Nicknamed the "Co-ed Killer," as most of his non-familial victims were female college students hitchhiking in the vicinity of Santa Cruz County, California, Kemper's murders often included necrophilia, decapitation, dismemberment and possibly cannibalism. Found sane and guilty at his trial in 1973, Kemper requested the death penalty for his crimes, however, capital punishment was suspended in California at the time, and he instead received eight concurrent life sentences. Since then, he has been incarcerated at California Medical Facility in Vacaville. The following recording is from a 1991 jailhouse tv interview.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. 
  Oh… Well! — The Risk of Wounding with Indifference is a powerful testimony written from the edge of silence and the depth of faith. Jorge Madera shares his journey through childhood abandonment, family fractures, disability, and resilience — always anchored in dignity and fire. 
  From the first breath of life in El Paso, Texas, through the struggles of survival, loss, and illness, his story is both deeply personal and universally human. This audiobook unites fragments of his previous works into one continuous voice: a voice that refuses to be silenced, even when the body falters. 
  Inside these chapters, you will hear about: 
  Beginnings and Roots — early family struggles, survival, and faith. 
  The Workshop of the Soul — discipline, silence, and character forged without witnesses. 
  Voices of the Soul — the enduring love of AGAPE and the Quasimodo effect in the brain and beyond. 
  Time and Judgment — the cost of being a witness, the fire that never asks permission. 
  Body and Dignity — karma, invisible pain, and the wheelchair as sanctuary. 
  Love and Mission — family care, fidelity, and a pact of presence. 
  This is not a self-help manual. It is a testimony, a confession, and an offering — for anyone who has ever carried invisible pain, sought refuge in faith, or longed for dignity when the world looked away. 
  Oh… Well! is both wound and witness, scar and fire, silence and song. Above all, it is a reminder that even when life wounds with indifference, the soul can still rise with meaning, purpose, and hope.

  Here are the excruciatingly funny adventures of Suzanne Vale—a young film star and drug addict—who survives a rehab clinic only to rejoin the equally harrowing world of Hollywood. Out there on the edge, despair flips into hilarity, and we're left laughing as Suzanne struggles to come to terms with her various fantasylands. This stunning literary debut—read by author and actress Carrie Fisher herself—evokes the deliciously irreverent humor that formed the lens through which Fisher looked at life in the '80s: the stardom, the success, the sex—as well as the drugs, the desperation, and the insecurity.

  In this Christian Encounter Series biography, author John Perry  explores the life of Sir. Winston Churchill, the man who changed World War II. 
  Winston Churchill captivated the world with his voice and his writings. His books and speeches ooze with patriotism and faith in a just God. But he wasn’t always known for his oratory skills, his faith, or his ability to captivate. In fact, as a child, he was small for his age, accident-prone, and frequently sick. To make matters worse, he was stubborn and self-centered, had a lisp, and did poorly in school. 
  Born to an aristocratic family, young Winston was whisked off to boarding school at an early age, ignored by his parents, and left in the care of a nanny, Elizabeth Everest. But Everest excelled where Winston’s own parents had failed him. She nurtured and encouraged him, and shared with him her own steadfast faith in God, shaping the views and vision of the persistent little English boy who would become one of the most influen­tial men in history.

  A virgin sailor's bawdy tale of a once in a lifetime adventure.Mick is the novice deckhand on a yacht, skippered by an Irishman who's off with his mistress to find a new life. Set in the 1970s, this witty, well-paced rite of passage is full of freshness, sexual impulse and a clash of values. Long Lost Log is a voyage of discovery into what it means to be free. During 'lockdown', Michel Chapman Pincher received a surprise package - a logbook of a sailing trip he'd made across the Atlantic 47 years ago – one he thought log-lost. Returned by a young love who found it in a keepsake box in her attic, Michael was inspired to tell a tale never told before. Michael wrote up the clash of a free-loving, dope-smoking hippy with the class prejudice, racial stereotyping and failed tweedy attitudes of his 'elders and betters' in the confines of a 37' cruising yacht, heading for the Caribbean. It was worth the effort as Lilliput Press, Dublin took the book on.Long Lost Log: Diary of a Virgin Sailor is witty, charming, and proof that some risks are worth taking. This once-in-a-lifetime adventure is easy to listen to - the story flows from one event to another. Long Lost Log is a true story, written like a novel – a rollicking page-turner written with verve, keen observations and sparkling with wry humour. A beautifully crafted audiobook, multi-layered and bravely written, Long Lost Log has many interesting insights into the skills and craft of sailing and the broader history of the day. Chapman Pincher describes the people he meets and the voyage he makes with incredible clarity and of the moment. Set in the 1970s, Long Lost Log is a period piece for the nostalgic traveller and the armchair adventurer of any age.
