Gently bred ladies collide with noble Scottish heroes in a dramatic and emotionally charged tale of misadventure and love. Sensible Poppy Featherstone has always known that her duty would be to marry well, for her younger sister Anise is capricious and romantic. Yet Poppy longs for a true union of like minds. She thought she’d found just that in Dougal Mackay, the Earl of Reay, a relative of her sister-in-law. Yet after he scandalously kisses her in a private garden, he flees, leaving her alone for a year, with no explanation. Then, the sudden death of their father forces Poppy and Anise to rely on the charity of family members, moving them to the townhouse of their half-brother. Grief-stricken, Poppy prepares to endure the change as she has everything else in life: with grace and logic. When Dougal finds out that Poppy is staying at his sister’s house, he rushes there. He has never forgotten her, and he vows to help Poppy and her family through this difficult time. The trouble is that, when Dougal was nineteen, he entered into a fool’s bargain: if he were not married by twenty-nine, he would wed the young lass he’d just met in the drinking hall. Dougal never thought the woman would take him seriously—until he gets a letter that she’s coming to Edinburgh and expects him to honor the terms of their drunken agreement. Dougal’s heart belongs to Poppy, but his honor may force him to wed another. Just as Poppy discovers Dougal’s apparent engagement, her family is forced to relocate again, this time to a small country village. Dougal is determined not to let her go. They might still have a chance if he can convince Poppy to wed him before his twenty-ninth birthday. Ultimately, it is not sense that may save their romance but sensibility.

Adeline: A Novel of Virginia Woolf by Norah Vincent
Please visit https://thebookvoice.com/podcasts/1/audiobook/735718 to listen full audiobooks. Title: Adeline: A Novel of Virginia Woolf Author: Norah Vincent Narrator: Esther Wane Format: Unabridged Audiobook Length: 9 hours 28 minutes Release date: August 6, 2024 Genres: Historical Publisher's Summary: “Daring . . . Vincent’s psychological approach is intriguing.” — USA Today “Vincent is a sensitive recorder of a mind’s movements as it shifts in and out of inspiration, and as it fights before submitting to despair.” — New York Times Book Review With poetic precision and psychological acuity, Norah Vincent’s Adeline reimagines the events that brought Woolf to the banks of the River Ouse, offering us a denouement worthy of its protaganist. Channeling Virginia and Leonard Woolf, T. S. and Vivienne Eliot, Lytton Strachey, and Dora Carrington, Vincent lays bare their genius and their blind spots, their achievements and their failings, from the inside out. And haunting every page is Adeline, the name given to Virginia Stephen at birth, which becomes the source of Virginia’s greatest consolation, and her greatest torment. Intellectually and emotionally disarming, Adeline—a vibrant portrait of Woolf and her social circle, the storied Bloomsbury group, and a window into the darkness that both inspired and doomed them all—is a masterpiece in its own right by one of our most brilliant and daring writers. “Skillfully rendered and emotionally insightful.” — Publishers Weekly “[An] electrifyingly good novel . . . by a master of discomfort.” — New Statesman

He won the Pulitzer Prize three times - for his novel The Bridge of San Luis Rey and the plays Our Town and The Skin of Our Teeth - and is the only person to be awarded the Pulitzer for both fiction and drama. Included here are four of his key works, set in different times and places, but sharing the same fundamental motifs - the universality of human experience and our search for life's meaning. Our Town, his timeless tale of love, marriage, birth and death in a small American community, stars Ed Bishop, William Roberts and Liza Ross. It is preceded by a 10-minute introductory extract from Free Thinking, in which presenter Anne McElvoy and actor/director David Cromer discuss the play's themes and techniques. Wilder's masterpiece, The Bridge of San Luis Rey, tells the story of the five victims of a bridge collapse, and the eyewitness who sets out to understand why they were fated to die. A poignant philosophical fable, it features a stellar cast including Annette Badland, Robert Glenister, Tom Goodman-Hill and Helen McCrory. Adapted from the play by Jerome Kilty, The Ides of March is based on Wilder's epistolary novel centred around the last days of the Roman republic, and stars Robert Hardy as Julius Caesar. Next, Ed Bishop reads from Heaven's My Destination, the comic tale of an amateur philosopher who leaves a trail of chaos wherever he goes. Finally, in a fascinating episode of Front Row, Mark Lawson, theatre director David Lan and New York Times theatre critic Mel Gussow discuss how Wilder became a literary icon, and launched a quiet revolution in American theatre.
