検索キーワード： 制作 "Audible studios" 短編小説

कहानियां मनोरंजक और आनंदप्रद दोनों हो सकती हैं। वे अंतर्दृष्टि और ज्ञान से भरी हो सकती हैं, ख़ासकर जब उन्होंने सदियों से पीढ़ी दर पीढ़ी सफ़र किया हो, और हर पुनर्कथन के साथ नए अर्थ अपनाए और छोड़े हों।.

Stories can be both entertaining and educative. They can also be insightful and illuminating, especially when they have travelled down the generations, through the centuries, taking on and eliding new meanings with each retelling. In this genre-bending book, the first of a series, Amish and Bhavna dive into the priceless treasure trove of the ancient Indian epics, as well as the vast and complex universe of Amish's Meluha (through his Shiva Trilogy and Ram Chandra Series), to explore some of the key concepts of Indian philosophy.

Cuando las largas sombras del amanecer se acortan gradualmente para, al mediodía, bajo nuestros pies, convertirse en un halo negro casi invisible, muestran lo que realmente son: raíces secretas que nos dan a luz. Los cuentos cortos, mínimos, son semillas de voluminosas novelas. En el atanor de la imaginación del escritor durante largo tiempo fermentan centenares de páginas, se disuelven y por fin coagulan en unas pocas líneas que, como un elixir alquímico, permiten una extensa recreación.

He aquí algunos textos, breves, muy breves porque son los cortos pasos en el caminar, los pequeños eslabones de la vida y la muerte del hombre. A veces somos arrastrados ("ya no camino / el camino me lleva"); otras, el futuro es deseado como desea el ladrón lo robado ("cada nuevo día / es un regalo") y con frecuencia asalta el dolor, la duda o la insatisfacción ("Piensas una cosa / deseas otras / amas otra / haces otra cosa"). Con todo persiste siempre la esperanza y el deseo del más allá ("la eternidad cada día mendiga mi confi anza").

Tres cuentos que nos hablan de libertad y de muerte, de represión y de pureza, de espiritualidad y de transformación dirigidos al niño interior de cada lector.

Brian Evenson’s hallucinatory and darkly comic stories of paranoia, pursuit, sensory deprivation, amnesia, and retribution rattle the cages of the psyche and peer into the gaping moral chasm that opens when we become estranged from ourselves. From sadistic bosses with secret fears to a woman trapped in a mime’s imaginary box, and from a post-apocalyptic misidentified Messiah to unwitting portraitists of the dead, the mind-bending world of this modern-day Edgar Allan Poe exposes the horror contained within our daily lives.

Evenson's first collection of 25 short stories and one novella, Altmann's Tongue (1994), garnered comparisons to Paul Bowles, Poe, and Kafka and is considered by many an existential masterpiece.

A sentient, murderous prosthetic leg; shadowy creatures lurking behind a shimmering wall; brutal barrow men: Of all the terrors that populate The Glassy, Burning Floor of Hell, perhaps the most alarming are the beings who decimated the habitable Earth: humans. In this new short-story collection, Brian Evenson envisions a chilling future beyond the Anthropocene that forces excruciating decisions about survival and self-sacrifice in the face of toxic air and a natural world torn between revenge and regeneration.

In these deeply felt, slyly humorous stories, Bezmozgis pleads no special causes but presents immigrant characters with all their contradictions and complexities, their earnest and divided hearts.

A quiet night in a local pub is shattered by the arrival of a sword wielding fugitive; a funeral party teeters on the edge of this world and the next, as ghosts simply won’t lay in wake; a shooting sees a veteran policewoman confront the banality of her own existence; and an aspiring writer grapples with his father’s cancer diagnosis and in his despair wreaks havoc on his mentor’s life.

Tres cuentos que nos hablan de libertad y muerte, de represión y pureza, de espiritualidad y transformación dirigidos al "niño interior" de cada lector. "Memorias de un niño bombero", historia de un niño que desea ser bombero, es más la historia de un aprendizaje: la de aprender a ser uno mismo. "Loïe del cielo" cuenta la relación que –durante la dictadura del loco y perverso Horzatt– mantienen un hombre mayor y Loïe. "La increíble mosca humana" es una reflexión que narra la metamorfosis que realiza una mosca en ser humano.

Jodorowsky revisa y amplía su audiolibro de cuentos "El tesoro de la sombra", dándole nuevas dimensiones y prácticamente duplicando el volumen. Alejandro Jodorowsky explica que, en su infancia, la lectura de cuentos "le impidió morir", ya que encontró un alimento que reencantó su difícil existencia. Desde entonces le gusta crear cuentos: cortos, largos, sabios o locos.

A newborn’s absent face appears on the back of someone else’s head, a filmmaker goes to gruesome lengths to achieve the silence he’s after for his final scene, and a therapist begins, impossibly, to appear in a troubled patient's room late at night. In these stories of doubt, delusion, and paranoia, no belief, no claim to objectivity, is immune to the distortions of human perception. Here, self-deception is a means of justifying our most inhuman impulses—whether we know it or not.

Con il suo caratteristico stile ironico e surreale, ricco di riferimenti colti e soluzioni linguistiche originali, Roberto Barbolini torna con una nuova raccolta di racconti che esplorano il tragicomico intreccio fra le "basse voglie" del corpo e il richiamo insopprimibile del sacro nell’epoca della sua impossibilità.

Boris Pahor, scrittore sloveno e cittadino italiano, non si colloca nel panorama letterario europeo come autore di un solo libro; altri capolavori segnano il suo percorso creativo che ruota in prevalenza intorno al destino della gente slovena nel Novecento e alle suggestioni di una città elusiva e ammaliatrice come Trieste. La prima di queste opere è la raccolta di racconti Il rogo nel porto, che non solo lievita ai livelli più alti della grande letteratura europea ma prelude a quasi tutta la restante produzione dell’autore quanto a temi e motivi ispiratori.

A woman falling out of sync with the world; a king’s servant hypnotized by his murderous horse; a transplanted ear with a mind of its own—the characters in these 25 stories live as interlopers in a world shaped by mysterious disappearances and unfathomable discrepancies between the real and imagined, revealing the breadth and depth of Evenson’s uncanny vision.

Thirty years ago, David Leavitt first appeared on the literary scene with a gutsy story collection that stunned readers and reviewers. Just 23, he was hailed as a prodigy of sorts: “remarkably gifted” (The Washington Post), with “a genius for empathy” (The New York Times Book Review), and “a knowledge of others' lives...that a writer twice his age might envy” (USA Today). “Regardless of age,” wrote the New York Times, “few writers so effortlessly achieve the sense of maturity and earned compassion so evident in these pages.”

David Leavitt's second collection of stories further confirms a talent deep and wonderfully creative in its empathy. A Place I've Never Been explores family relationships, friendships, and romantic relationships, among characters whose sexuality is fluid or uncertain—a barrier or under threat. A real estate agent happily married to a woman finds himself in love with another man in "Houses". A man entering a bold new world of gay hookups feels sheltered from the most intimidating attentions by his more attractive, charismatic friend.

Best-selling author Susie Bright’s first work of fiction and her first collection of short stories. Bright reveals the outlier reaches of family, tribe, last rites—as well as the elegiac care and feeding of the fast-disappearing.
