  Asphyxia - The Story of a Life...

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.  
  Asphyxia is a hauntingly lyrical novel that unfolds like a cinematic screenplay in parenthetical time and conditional mood. Told through the voice of Nefeli—a young woman observing her life on a mental screen—this work blurs the boundaries between memory, myth, narration, and madness. Set in a literary universe where authors are tyrants, muses are merciless, and reality is often just a rumour, the story follows Nefeli’s metaphysical descent into guilt, obsession, and poetic hallucination. 
  Through the echo of voices—narrators, poets, and ghosts—the book explores the invisible lives of the mentally fragile, those who vanish quietly between diagnoses and metaphors. With a cast of characters both archetypal and painfully human, Asphyxia is not a love story, nor a murder mystery, though it flirts with both. It is a philosophical narrative about stories themselves: who writes them, who performs them, and who suffers them. 
  Written by Tomazo Pagonis and originally crafted in Greek, this audiobook has been translated into rich British English by Marilu Pagoni. It is recommended for lovers of experimental fiction, metafictional narrative, and those who sense their own lives unfolding in parentheses.

  'His is "close-up" poetry - close up to thought, to the world, to the emotions. Few writers at work today, in verse or fiction, can give the sense of rich, fecund, lived life that Heaney does.' John Banville
  
  
  'More than any other poet since Wordsworth he can make us understand that the outside world is not outside, but what we are made of.' John Carey
  
  
  'Heaney's voice, by turns mythological and journalistic, rural and sophisticated, reminiscent and impatient, stern and yielding, curt and expansive, is one of a suppleness almost equal to consciousness itself.' Helen Vendler

  "You talk when you cease to be at peace with your thoughts."
  
  In the city of Orphalese, the people gather to say farewell to Al-Mustafa, the "Chosen and the Beloved." Before he departs, they ask him to speak his truth on the fundamental experiences of human life. Through a series of lyrical and profound dialogues, Al-Mustafa provides timeless insights into love, pain, work, friendship, and death. Gibran's work transcends religion and culture, offering a blueprint for a life lived with meaning, compassion, and spiritual freedom.
  
  The Art of Living: Gibran does not offer rigid rules but rather a philosophy of balance. He teaches that joy and sorrow are inseparable, that work is "love made visible," and that true friendship is a field "which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving." His words act as a mirror, reflecting the reader's own inner wisdom.
  
  A Global Phenomenon: Since its publication, The Prophet has never been out of print. Its popularity lies in its simplicity and its ability to speak directly to the human heart. It has served as a guide for millions during life's most significant transitions—from weddings and births to the finality of death.
  
  A Synthesis of East and West: As a Lebanese-American artist, Gibran blended the mysticism of the East with the Romanticism of the West. This unique perspective allowed him to create a work that feels both ancient and modern, providing a sanctuary of peace in an increasingly chaotic world.
  
  Seek the truth within. Purchase "The Prophet" today and discover the wisdom that has inspired generations.

  Edgar A Poe: The True Story of...

  “Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, 
  Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore, 
  While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, 
  As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. 
  "'Tis some visitor," I muttered, "tapping at my chamber door - 
  Only this, and nothing more." 
   
  Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December, 
  And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. 
  Eagerly I wished the morrow; vainly I had tried to borrow 
  From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore - 
  For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore, 
  Nameless here for evermore.” 
   
  These are the first two verses of ‘The Raven’, a poem full of dark and disturbing images, rife with tension, fear, paranoia, terror and a yearning for a lost love that has returned to this earth as a ghost. As a poem ‘The Raven’ is without doubt more famous and widely known than the troubled author who penned it. His name was Edgar Allan Poe, and his work was directly responsible for shaping the modern horror industry as we know it. He was the Godfather of Gore, the Father of Fear, the Master of the Macabre, and the Guardian of the Gruesome. Poe was also one of the best mystery writers of all time, however the most fascinating puzzle he left us was that of his own life, and in this journal, we will follow in the great man’s footsteps to turn detective. 
   
  Edgar Allan Poe was born early in the 19th Century, yet still his legacy lives on. Throughout this celebration of his life and work, you’ll also get the opportunity to read extracts from his poetry and prose, some of which will be very familiar but just as terrifying all the same!
