Story
Lamar Jimmerson is the leader of the Gnomon Society, the international fraternal order dedicated to preserving the arcane wisdom of the lost city of Atlantis. Stationed in France in 1917, Jimmerson comes across a little book crammed with Atlantean puzzles, Egyptian riddles, and extended alchemical metaphors. It's the Codex Pappus—the sacred Gnomon text. Soon he is basking in the lore of lost Atlantis, convinced that his mission on earth is to administer to and extend the ranks of the noble brotherhood.

Story
In Bournville, a placid suburb of Birmingham, sits a famous chocolate factory. For eleven-year-old Mary and her family in 1945, it's the centre of the world. The reason their streets smell faintly of chocolate, the place where most of their friends and neighbours have worked for decades. Mary will go on to live through the Coronation and the World Cup final, royal weddings and royal funerals, Brexit and Covid-19. She'll have children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Story
Written in a hospital tent to the sound of gunfire and shells falling, Cicely Hamilton drew on her experiences working in France during WW1 to tell the story of William Tully and his new bride Griselda, who are wrenched away from their all-consuming interests – socialism and votes for women – and plunged into the almost dream-like horror of war. As brutal tragedy strikes, their attitude to both pacifism and patriotism is altered and their lives are changed forever.

Story
In 1919, far-flung patriots establish the Korean Provisional Government to protest the Japanese occupation of their country. This government-in-exile proves mostly symbolic, though, and after Japan’s defeat in World War II, the KPG dissolves and civil war erupts, resulting in the tragic North-South split that remains today.

Story
Brussels, 1943. Twelve-year-old street orphan Helene survives by living as a boy and selling copies of the country’s most popular newspaper, Le Soir, now turned into Nazi propaganda. Helene’s entire world changes when she befriends a rogue journalist, Marc Aubrion, who draws her into a secret network that publishes dissident underground newspapers. The Nazis track down Aubrion’s team and give them an impossible choice: Turn the resistance newspapers into a Nazi propaganda bomb that will sway public opinion against the Allies, or be killed.

Story
Thomas Pynchons zeitloses Meisterwerk insziniert als Hörspiel − ausgezeichnet mit dem Deutschen Hörbuchpreis 2021 Das Leben als Parabel. Parabelförmig ist die Flugbahn zwischen zwei Punkten, ist die Flugbahn der deutschen V-Waffen im Zweiten Weltkrieg, deren Entwicklung und Einsatz nur einen der zahllosen Handlungsstränge dieses Pandämoniums darstellen. Eine der Hauptfiguren ist der GI Tyrone Slothrop, der eine Erektion bekommt, bevor eine V2-Rakete einschlägt. Als lebendiges Frühwarnsystem ist er nicht nur für die Alliierten interessant.

En el último carnaval de la Segunda República, Fidel Ruiz, el chirigotero más admirado de la tacita de plata, se alza con el primer premio en el concurso de agrupaciones. Nadie sospecha que detrás de su exquisito talento se encuentra María, su asistenta. Para continuar alcanzando la gloria carnavalera, el arrogante y maquiavélico señorito no dudará en manipularla y sacar tajada del amor incondicional que ella le profesa.

Let's face it: Selfie pictures aren't going away anytime soon. In fact we can all admit we have taken some of these photos ourselves and posted them to Facebook, Myspace, Twitter, or Google. You can post a sweet selfie picture pretty much anywhere.
