“今”の京都の声でよみがえる、源氏物語！「紫式部が隣でおしゃべりしているかのように綴られる、若き日の「光君」の物語に、ぐっと引き込まれました」―本上まなみ(俳優・エッセイスト) 「桐壺」帖から「葵」帖までの9帖を原文に忠実に訳した、 作家・いしいしんじによる平安京の大ベストセラー恋愛物語。 京都新聞に連載され大反響を呼んだ「げんじものがたり」が、 大幅に加筆されて、ついに出版！ どちらの帝さまの、頃やったやろなあ。 女御(にょうご)やら、更衣(こうい)やら……ぎょうさんいたはるお妃はんのなかでも、そんな、とりたててたいしたご身分でもあらへんのに、えらい、とくべつなご寵愛をうけはった、更衣はんがいたはってねえ。――― 平安の都で書かれた、文学史上の傑作と称される『源氏物語』。本来「京ことば」で書かれたであろうこの大長編は、昭和初期、与謝野晶子と谷崎潤一郎がほぼ同時期に訳して以来、ほとんどすべて現代標準語で書かれてきました。かつて山折哲雄（宗教学者）が嘆き、司馬遼太郎と徳川宗賢大阪大学教授（御三卿の田安徳川家出身で国語学者、言語学、方言学）が未来に託すほど、『源氏物語』の「京ことば」訳は難しいとされてきました。 実現不可能と言われてきたこの難題に挑戦したのが、ことばに対して真摯に向き合い続ける作家・いしいしんじが抄訳した『げんじものがたり』です。紫式部が今を生きる京都のおねえさんになって、ご近所さんに語り聴かせをしているような、あるいは「完璧なイケメン」光源氏と、彼に関わっていくお姫様たちとの噂話を聞いているような、不思議な感覚。原作に忠実に、かつ「今」を映す瑞々しい言葉で綴られることで、平安貴族たちが夢中になったありのままの「物語」を堪能することができます。 光源氏が誕生する「桐壺」帖から、のちに最愛の女性となる紫の上が登場する「若紫」帖を経て、正妻・葵の上のもののけによる死が描かれる「葵」帖（源氏23歳頃）まで、9帖を抄訳して収録。光(ひかる)君(くん)の若き日の成長譚と、さまざまな姫君たちとの華麗な恋愛絵巻が描かれます。 源氏物語に詳しい人はもちろん、読むことを敬遠してきた人へ。令和に蘇る平安の宮中恋愛劇を、ゆるりとお楽しみください。

Audible Studios presents two new recordings of George Orwell's most celebrated novels – Nineteen Eighty-Four and Animal Farm – with exclusive introductions, written and performed by Stephen Fry.

Following Jane from her childhood as an orphan in Northern England through her experience as a governess at Thornfield Hall, Charlotte Brontë's Gothic classic is an early exploration of women's independence in the mid-19th century and the pervasive societal challenges women had to endure. At Thornfield, Jane meets the complex and mysterious Mr. Rochester, with whom she shares a complicated relationship that ultimately forces her to reconcile the conflicting passions of romantic love and religious piety.

The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Golden Globe-winning actor Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under) performs Truman Capote's masterstroke about a young writer's charmed fascination with his unorthodox neighbor, the "American geisha" Holly Golightly. Holly - a World War II-era society girl in her late teens - survives via socialization, attending parties and restaurants with men from the wealthy upper class who also provide her with money and expensive gifts. Over the course of the novella, the seemingly shallow Holly slowly opens up to the curious protagonist.

The unapologetic intensity with which Emily Brontë wrote this story ensures that it will forever be considered one of the greatest works of English literature. A passionate tale of a chaotic and often violent love, Wuthering Heights transcends your average romance and, with its Gothic undertones, takes the listener on a journey through one man's lustful hunt for revenge.

“I have the honour to offer up to you, thanks to the good people of Audible, a selection of some of my very favourite Wodehouse. If these stories are new to you I hope it will be the beginning of a lifelong pleasure, if some or all are familiar I hope you will welcome them like old friends.” (Stephen Fry). Audible Studios presents this brand new performance by Stephen Fry of some of his favourite Jeeves stories from P.G. Wodehouse, with an exclusive introduction.

One of the best-known stories in American culture, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz has stirred the imagination of young and old alike for over 100 years. Best Actress nominee Anne Hathaway (Rachel Getting Married, Alice in Wonderland, The Dark Knight Rises) lends her voice to this uniquely American fairy tale.

A disturbing tale of a young man's uncanny ability to remain both young and beautiful while descending into a life of heartless debauchery, The Picture of Dorian Gray was considered proof of both Wilde's genius and his perversion. Oscar Wilde's scandalous best seller of 1891 was one of the most damning pieces of evidence used against him in the trial that brought about his downfall.

Between his work on the 2014 Audible Audiobook of the Year, Hamlet, Prince of Denmark: A Novel, and his performance of Classic Love Poems, narrator Richard Armitage ( The Hobbit, Hannibal) has quickly become a listener favorite. Now, in this defining performance of Charles Dickens' classic David Copperfield, Armitage lends his unique voice and interpretation, truly inhabiting each character and bringing real energy to the life of one of Dickens' most famous characters.

The 13 chapters of The Art of War, each devoted to one aspect of warfare, were compiled by the high-ranking Chinese military general, strategist, and philosopher Sun-Tzu. In spite of its battlefield specificity, The Art of War has found new life in the modern age, with leaders in fields as wide and far-reaching as world politics, human psychology, and corporate strategy finding valuable insight in its timeworn words.

A natural storyteller and raconteur in his own right - just listen to Paddle Your Own Canoe and Gumption - actor, comedian, carpenter, and all-around manly man Nick Offerman (Parks and Recreation) brings his distinctive baritone and a fine-tuned comic versatility to Twain's writing. In a knockout performance, he doesn't so much as read Twain's words as he does rejoice in them, delighting in the hijinks of Tom - whom he lovingly refers to as a "great scam artist" and "true American hero".

源氏物語はなぜ「世界文学」になったのか？千年前に紫式部が書き、百年前にアーサー・ウェイリーが英訳した「源氏物語」を現代日本語に再翻訳した著者が、時空を超えた物語の秘密と魅力を解きあかす。

Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

Emma can be enjoyed as a charming love story, a detective story, and a comic and lively picture of English life 200 years ago. Austen's beautiful, clever, wilful but fallible heroine Emma Woodhouse believes she knows best. Perfectly content with her life she sees no need for either love or marriage, yet nothing pleases her more than meddling in the romantic lives of others.

In this Audible Exclusive production, Academy Award® nominee Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl) narrates one of Jane Austen’s most beloved works, Sense and Sensibility. In this timeless tale of misguided romance and heartbreak, two teenage heroines must overcome the pitfalls of Georgian England’s high society in order to achieve the love and happiness they seek. The admiration that Pike has for Austen’s work is shown clearly through this passionate delivery of Austen’s first published novel.

Anna Karenina seems to have everything - beauty, wealth, popularity and an adored son. But she feels that her life is empty until the moment she encounters the impetuous officer Count Vronsky.

'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times'; so the recording begins and ends with some of Dickens's best-known words, and between those lines is every Briton's view of the worst excesses of the French Revolution. Set in London and Paris before and during the French Revolution, the audiobook tells the story of a French doctor who is imprisoned for 18 years in the Bastille in Paris. Upon his release, he moves to London with his daughter, Lucie, whom he had never met.
