Product Information

Random House presents the audiobook edition of Ikigai by Héctor García and Francesc Miralles, read by Noako Mori.

a hard to follow depressing read which is over detailed in a confusing way, with characters who I just didn't care about. The reading guide at the end of the book mentioned something about this kind of presentation – well, it’s probably an effective method when doing a film, but it will definitely fail in a book. The taverna is the only place that Kostas and Defne can meet in secret, hidden beneath the blackened beams from which hang garlands of garlic and chilli peppers, creeping honeysuckle, and in the centre, growing through a cavity in the roof, a fig tree.Access to the Plus Catalogue—thousands of Audible Originals, audiobooks and podcasts, including exclusive series. A resolve to be a giant among men, to conquer, plunder and seize the greatness that he thinks is his right. In the absolutely packed Act II, the dark fantasy resumes and the Sandman expands into the French Revolution, ancient Rome, 19th-century San Francisco, eighth-century Baghdad, and beyond.

For Arthur Dent, who has only just had his house demolished that morning, this seems already to be more than he can cope with. The audiobook reflects Rhonda’s own journey and shares the most direct way out for those experiencing hardship and the path to end pain and suffering endured by so many, and it shines a light on a future without anxiety or fear. In this controversial and exciting listen, Pollan explores caffeine’s power as the most-used drug in the world - and the only one we give to children (in soda pop) as a treat.Michael Pollan, known for his best-selling nonfiction audio, including The Omnivores Dilemma and How to Change Your Mind, conceived and wrote Caffeine: How Caffeine Created the Modern World as an Audible Original. walters' choice of words was okay and this story has a nice idea but the constant change of point of view makes the readers grow tired of it.

The cover may have some limited signs of wear but the pages are clean, intact and the spine remains undamaged. Unfortunately she brings another friend, Maggie Salt, an actress of waif-like beauty but troubled and destructive spirit, who sets events in train by going missing as soon as they arrive, just as the first flakes of a heavy snowstorm begin to whirl.
