Sinopse

This edition includes the following editor's introduction: Willa Cather, an analysis of the literature of a free and empowered woman


First published in 1925, “The Professor's House” is a tale by American novelist Willa Cather about dealing with loss and change.
“The Professor's House” is a novel in three parts and was written over the course of several years. Cather first wrote the centrepiece, “Tom Outland's Story,” and then later wrote the two framing chapters “The Family” and “The Professor” as a continuation of the original plot.

“The Professor's House” follows Godfrey St. Peter, an author and professor, struggling with grief, conflict, and change within his family after the death of a beloved student and his daughter's ex-fiancé, Tom Outland. The events of the book are precipitated by the professor moving from the house where he wrote a series of novels, which were inspired by Tom Outland's adventures in New Mexico...

    JUPITER RISING – THE CELESTIAL CHRONICLES 
    Book 4 of 6  The Rings of Saturn 
    This story is summarized as follows: 
    Captain Minerva Voss and her crew aboard the Odysseus uncover a cosmic mystery hidden in Saturn’s rings. What begins as a haunting harmony turns out to be a Sagittari language—a warning. The team discovers an ancient archway, a gateway to a quantum echo revealing the rings as a stabilizing circuit keeping the entity Nyx imprisoned within Jupiter. But the Syndicate, led by Darius Kane, seeks to disrupt this balance and unleash Nyx’s power. A rogue Syndicate scientist, Jace Ryker, joins Minerva to stop Kane’s catastrophic plan, revealing a project aiming to merge humanity with void energy. As planetary alignment nears, Minerva leads a desperate mission to retune the rings and reinforce the prison. Jace sacrifices himself to complete the sequence, stabilizing Jupiter—for now. But a final vision warns: Nyx stirs, and the next Convergence looms ever closer.  
    This is the fourth of six audiobooks in the series and I do hope you enjoy this fourth instalment, and it's only $3, all subsequent will remain at that price. 
    I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 1/2 minutes and prepares you for the start, synthesizer, bass and cymbals in a soul/funk form. The closing music ends the tale on a darker tone and at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments, genre and industrial/fearful mood but with more caution added.  
    The story itself runs to about 15 minutes and is narrated in my own voice.  
    I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!
