Marlowe, un marinero, cuenta a sus compañeros, como consiguió trabajo de piloto y realizó un viaje por el río Congo hacia una las estaciones de explotación de marfil, en el centro de la jungla. Allí se encuentra con un personaje rodeado de un especial halo de misterio a lo largo de toda la novela: el comerciante de marfil Kurtz. Lo que la novela de Conrad pretende hacernos ver, es la escasa diferencia que realmente existe entre lo que llamamos gente civilizada y los salvajes que se describen en su novela en medio de la jungla. Los seres supuestamente civilizados, en aras de sus objetivos mercantiles, hacen gala de toda clase de maldades y maltratos en una actitud racista ad infinitum hacia los nativos del marfil.

The Eustace Diamonds by Anthony Trollope | Free Audiobook27 Apr 201123:57:00
Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: The Eustace Diamonds Author: Anthony Trollope Narrator: Simon Vance Format: Unabridged Length: 23 hrs and 57 mins Language: English Release date: 04-27-11 Publisher: Blackstone Audio, Inc. Genres: Classics, British Literature Summary: The third novel in the Palliser series, The Eustace Diamonds is a satirical study of the influence of money and greed on human relationships in Victorian society. The story follows two contrasting women and their courtships. Lizzie Greystock and Lucy Morris are both hampered in their love affairs by their lack of money. Lizzies trickery and deceit, however, contrast with Lucys constancy. Lizzie Greystock, determined to marry into wealth, snares the ailing Sir Florian Eustace and quickly becomes a widow. Despite the brevity of their marriage, Lizzie inherits according to the generous terms of Sir Florians will, which include the Eustace diamonds. When the Eustace family solicitor, Mr. Camperdown, begins to question her legal claim to the family heirloom, Lizzie weaves a tangled web of deception and crime to gain possession of the diamonds. Enlisting the aid of her cousin, Frank, much to the dismay of Franks fiancée, Lizzie seeks to avoid legal prosecution while pursuing one love affair after another. In this third novel of the Palliser series and the one least focused on the politics of the time, Trollope was understood to be commenting on the malaise in Victorian England that allowed a character like Lizzie, who marries for money, steals the family diamonds, and behaves despicably throughout, to rise unscathed in society. Trollope's The Eustace Diamonds blends elements of mystery, politics, and romance in a memorable work. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

New Grub Street by George Gissing | Free Audiobook14 Nov 201718:07:00
Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: New Grub Street Author: George Gissing Narrator: Nigel Patterson Format: Unabridged Length: 18 hrs and 7 mins Language: English Release date: 11-14-17 Publisher: Spoken Realms Genres: Classics, British Literature Summary: New Grub Street (1891) has the reputation of being George Gissing's finest novel. With bitter humour and grim realism, it tells the story of the ambitions, dreams, and disappointments of men and women struggling to earn their living as writers in the closing years of the Victorian era. Jasper Milvain is a young writer of limited talent, eager to exploit every opportunity and social connection in order to make his way. Meanwhile, his more scholarly acquaintance Edwin Reardon may have enjoyed early success as a literary novelist, but his rigidly high standards set him at odds with the tastes of the mass market, and he seems destined for financial ruin. For those who toil "in the valley of the shadow of books" the spectre of poverty looms large - and in the ruthlessly commercial world of New Grub Street, only those can adapt to the brutal demands of the marketplace stand a chance of finding happiness and fulfillment.

The French Revolution, Volume 1 by Thomas Carlyle | Free Audiobook05 Aug 200911:23:00
Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: The French Revolution, Volume 1 Author: Thomas Carlyle Narrator: Robert Bethune Format: Unabridged Length: 11 hrs and 23 mins Language: English Release date: 08-05-09 Publisher: Freshwater Seas Genres: Classics, British Literature Summary: Thomas Carlyle's The French Revolution is a landmark of literary history. Conceived not as a dry recounting of facts, but as a personal, vivid, direct and dramatic encounter with the turbulent times of revolutionary France, it is in fact an extended dramatic monologue in which we meet not only the striking personalities and events of the time, but the equally striking personality and mind of Thomas Carlyle himself. In this, the first volume of the series, we live out the course of the French Revolution, from the death of Louis XV to the triumphal celebrations of early days of the National Assembly. Thomas Carlyle's writing is a true challenge to the reader and the listener. He does not write in the calm, objective, matter-of-fact style of a modern historian; quite the contrary! He writes as if he were there, a witness to history, passionately involved with the events that he makes unfold before our eyes. He gives his rare mastery of the outer reaches of the English language full scope, challenging us to grasp not only his complex thoughts, but his intricate manner of expressing them. Grappling with his mind and with the events of the Revolution at the same time is a powerful challenge for any reader or listener. Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

Rider Haggard Narrator: Toby Stephens Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 27 mins Language: English Release date: 08-24-09 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, British Literature Summary: Exclusively from Audible On board a ship bound for Natal, adventurer Allan Quatermain meets Sir Henry Curtis and Captain John Good. His new friends have set out to find Sir Henry's younger brother, who vanished while seeking King Solomon's legendary diamond mines in the African interior. By strange chance, Quatermain has a map to the mines, drawn in blood, and agrees to join the others on their perilous journey. The travellers face many dangers on their quest - the baking desert heat, the hostile lost tribe they discover and the evil 'wise woman' who holds the secret of the diamond mines. King Solomon's Mines is an exciting adventure that has gripped generations. It is the first English story set in Africa and is considered to be the origin of the Lost World literary genre that inspired others such as Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World, Rudyard Kipling's The Man Who Would Be King and HP Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness. Haggard wrote the novel as a result of a five-shilling wager with his brother to see whether he could write a novel half as good as Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island (1883). The novel ended up becoming the best seller of 1885. Narrator Biography Toby Stephens is an award winning actor who has an extensive array of credits over stage, film, television and audiobooks.

Fanny Hill by John Cleland | Free Audiobook16 Dec 199908:35:00
Listen to full audiobooks for free on : https://hotaudiobook.com/free Title: Fanny Hill Author: John Cleland Narrator: Barbara McCulloh Format: Unabridged Length: 8 hrs and 35 mins Language: English Release date: 12-16-99 Publisher: Recorded Books Genres: Classics, British Literature Summary: The hilarious story of Fanny Hill and her erotic exploits in London shocked the religious and literary hierarchy, who condemned the book, thus immediately increasing demand for it. The story chronicles the life of an 18th-century maiden who, left without parents, journeys to the big city to try life on her own. Despite its highly charged erotic content and vehement criticism from the Bishop of London in 1749 as "an open insult upon religion and good manners", this romp through societies high and low contains not a single obscene word.

The second book in The Austen Project. Seventeen-year-old Catherine Cat' Morland has led a sheltered existence in rural Dorset, a life entirely bereft of the romance and excitement for which she yearns. So when Cat's wealthy neighbours, the Allens, invite her to Edinburgh Festival, she is sure adventure beckons. Edinburgh initially offers no such thrills: Susie Allen is obsessed by shopping, Andrew Allen by the Fringe. A Highland Dance class, though, brings Cat a new acquaintance: Henry Tilney, a pale, dark-eyed gentleman whose family home, Northanger Abbey, sounds perfectly thrilling. And an introduction to Bella Thorpe, who shares her passion for supernatural novels, provides Cat with a like-minded friend. But with Bella comes her brother John, an obnoxious banker whose vulgar behaviour seems designed to thwart Cat's growing fondness for Henry. Happily, rescue is at hand. The rigidly formal General Tilney invites her to stay at Northanger with son Henry and daughter Eleanor. Cat's imagination runs riot: An ancient abbey, crumbling turrets, secret chambers, ghostsand Henry! What could be more deliciously romantic? But Cat gets far more than she bargained for in this isolated corner of the Scottish Borders. The real world outside the pages of a novel proves to be altogether more disturbing than the imagined world within Contact: info@hotaudiobook.com

Jerome Narrator: Ian Carmichael Format: Unabridged Length: 5 hrs and 53 mins Language: English Release date: 01-24-08 Publisher: Audible Studios Genres: Classics, British Literature Summary: Exclusively from Audible In this comedic masterpiece, three young men, increasingly given to thoughts of hypochondria, decide to embark on a journey along the river Thames. Confident that the fresh air and daily exercise will grant them immunity from a myriad of illnesses and diseases, they pack up their frying pans, toothbrushes, food and canine companion, Montmorency, and set off on an unexpected adventure. As the men come up against hilarious and often avoidable obstacles on their journey from Kingston upon Thames to Oxford, Jerome K. Jerome offers listeners a unique look back at the joys of youthful naivety, comradery and playfulness. Supremely English in nature, Three Men in a Boat, paved the way for the later works of authors such as James Thurber, PG Wodehouse and Nick Hornby. Based on a real-life experience, Jerome's comic approach to this story transcends the passage of time as his themes and subjects remain universal. An explorer of new ideas and customs, Jerome K. Jerome developed great insight along his travels throughout Europe and the sheer plausibility of his stories serves to enhance the comedic effect of his writing. As an international best-selling title, Jerome K. Jerome's Three Men in a Boat was met with such immediate success that it has never been out of print since its publication in 1889. Narrator Biography Ian Carmichael was a veteran comedy actor, best known for his roles in Private's Progress, I'm All Right Jack, Brothers in Law and School for Scoundrels. He played Dorothy L. Sayers' gentleman detective, Lord Peter Wimsey, on television and radio and his audiobook narration of these stories can be found on the Audible website.
