Publisher's summary
God vergewe ons baie, maar God vergewe ons nie die kwaad wat ons ´n kind aandoen nie. Aan die een kant van die berg, in die Lange Kloof, woon Fiela Komoetie, verknog aan haar hanskind - deur die Here aan haar 'toebetrou' een nag toe sy hom as driejarige gekry het waar hy voor haar deur staan en huil, ´n weggooilam. Aan die ander kant van die berg, in die Bos, woon die houtkapper Elias van Rooyen en sy vrou Barta, wie se driejarige kind weggeraak het. Die een kind is Benjamin Komoetie, die ander Lukas van Rooyen. Is dit dieselfde mens? Kon ´n klein kind so ver geloop het, uit die Bos tot in die Lange Kloof? Dié vraag word nege jaar later oopgekrap deur twee sensusmanne wat deur die Lange Kloof reis en die wit kind met die blou oë tussen die bruinmense kry. En jare later is dit die vraag wat Benjamin/Lukas self vra: Wie is ek? Hy móét weet, anders kan die vrou wat hy liefgekry het nooit syne wees nie. Die antwoord is daar, weet hy: iewers in homself, diep verskuil in die verlede, bly dit hom ontwyk.

Teen die agtergrond van soutmyne en granietkoppe vertel Droomdelwers die verhaal van twee klein gemeenskappe aan die Weskus - Soutmansvlei en Vlaktevlei. Hier word die lewens van armes en rykes, van wit en bruin, ten nouste verweef. Hier loop uiteenlopende karakters rond, elk met sy eie storie. Soos oom Kêppies sê: “ Hy’s soesie see, soes ’n branner. Voorlat jy hom kan vasvat, sien jy net sy skymstriep oppie sand lê.”

Story
’n Nuwe lewe wag op hom. In 1939 bars die oorlogbom in Europa. Drie miljoen kinders word uit London ontruim na veiliger gebiede. Een van hulle is die sesjarige Charles Smith, op pad na ’n onbekende tante van sy pa in ’n klein dorpie in Skotland. By aunty Grace wag ’n nuwe lewe op hom. Aan die anderkant van Europa ruk die Duitse Sesde Leër op teen Rusland. Tussen die manskappe is die vurige majoor Oswald von Stein, Hildegard se stiefseun. Voor hulle wag die Russiese winter, Stalingrad en die krygsgevangenekampe van Siberië. 90 000 word gevange geneem, net sesduisend oorleef.

Sy roman is weliswaar een van die heel grootste werke oor die Boereoorlog, maar dit is ook ‘n werk wat in ‘n hedendaagse idioom vrae vra oor hoe ons onthou, wat ons onthou en wat die implikasies is van vergeet.

Kamphoer is die ware verhaal van ’n vrou wat gedurende die Anglo-Boereoorlog wreedaardig verkrag en vir die aasvoëls gegooi is. Met die hulp van ’n reeks weldoeners ontsnap sy aan die kloue van die dood en wy sy uiteindelik haar lewe aan die genesing van presies die soort trauma waaraan sy onderworpe was. En in die proses word sy teruggestamp in ’n bomkrater wat sy geglo het lank reeds toegegroei het en veilig bedek was. In Kamphoer word die weerbarstigheid van die menslike gees opgeweeg teen die ewe blywende invloed van trauma.

Wanneer die mooi, ryk Emma le Roux hom huur en begin vertel van onwaarskynlike bedreigings en ’n broer wat sy vas glo ná twintig jaar soos ’n Lasarus uit die dood uit opgestaan het, stof hy ook ’n ander ou Wet af: Moenie klein vroue vertrou nie.

Die klassieke topverkoper nou weer beskikbaar! Simon van Cirene word gelas om Jesus se kruis te dra, op pad na Golgota. Simon, die man wat nie glo nie. Maar hoe kan ’n mens onveranderd gelaat word deur ’n ontmoeting met Christus? Hierdie is die verhaal van Christus se aanslag op ’n heidense wêreld. Dit is ’n beeld van wroeging en botsing en van haat en liefde, van ongeloof teenoor geloof. Maar veral is dit die verhaal van verlossing: die oorwinning van die gees oor die aardse.

Niemand is hier vir die land en die Kaap se natuurskoon nie. Hulle het nie sentiment oor ’n politieke bestel of ’n reënboognasie nie. Geld is die enigste god wat aanbid word.

Story
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.

Story
Johnnie Rico never really intended to join up—and definitely not the infantry. But now that he’s in the thick of it, trying to get through combat training harder than anything he could have imagined, he knows everyone in his unit is one bad move away from buying the farm in the interstellar war the Terran Federation is waging against the Arachnids. Because everyone in the Mobile Infantry fights. And if the training doesn’t kill you, the Bugs are more than ready to finish the job.

Story
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.

Story
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.

Mooiste luisterboek ooit l
Na jare in die buiteland woon, het ek Afrikaanse luisterboeke ontdek. Fiela se kind is vir my die allermooiste; ryk met detail van die Knysna gebied. die groeiende ekonomie. Ontwikkeling van paie, skeepsvaart en loots deur die skeur tussen die see en die lagoon, volstruis en bosbou bedrywe. kontras tussen ope vlaktes van Langkloof en die digte Knysna bos met sy olifante, louries, bloubokkies en arme houtkappers. Die wet. Rykes, armes, bruin, wit. kinders wat hard moet werk. Famielies, moeders, vaders en die liefde ...

Boeiend
Die storie is tydloos..
Dalene Mattee se skryfkuns stel nie teleur nie.
Die luisteraar sal lag, huil, spanning ervaar, woede, wrewel wat lei tot vergifnis is vrymakende liefde
Puik puik puik literatuur

Eg Suid-Afrikaanse storie
June van Merch se voorlesing is uitstekend. Dit is ‘n klassieke Suid-Afrikaanse storie, is welbekend en die temas bly betekenisvol. Die karakters is so eg en menslik en word op ‘n aardse manier voorgestel. Die leser kan vereenselwig in elkeen met sy foute, vrese en bekommernisse, liefde en vreugdes. Dit is absoluut die moeite werd om te luister!! 12 uit 10!

My 1ste audio boek
Dit was baie spesiaal. Net d ding om corona inperking ook spesiaal te maak!
Ek & Nellie het dit saam geluister. Saans as ons gaan slaap. Met oorfone terwyl ons die 1 km sirkelstap in die kompleks doen.. soggens & middag.
Die storie was interessant. Die beskrywing van die boslewe van destyds, is kleurvol gedoen. Die storie-lyn het ons aandag gehou. Ons het elke oomblik geniet.
Die voorleser was baie goed. Mens kon die verandering in atmosfeer, in haar stem hoor.
Baie geluk. Dit is puik. Dankie vir d geskenk op my verjaardag.
