Story
『鼻』 あらすじ:禅智内供(ぜんちないぐ)という僧侶がいた。彼は鼻の長さが18cmと長く、内供は始終この鼻を苦に病んで来たが、表面上は気にしない風を装っていた。ある日、内供は鼻を短くする方法を知り、その方法を試し、鼻を短くすることに成功する。しかし、数日して短くなった鼻を見て笑う者が出始めた。そして内供は鼻が長かった頃よりも馬鹿にされているように感じるようになった。鼻が短くなり一層笑われるようになってしまった内供は、鼻が短くなったことを逆に恨むようになる。ある夜、内供は鼻がかゆく眠れない夜を過ごしていた。その翌朝に起きると、短かった鼻が元の長い鼻に戻っていた。内供はもう自分を笑う者はいなくなると思った……。 『ピアノ』 あらすじ:震災後の横浜、山の手。或家の崩れた跡にピアノがある。人影のない藜の中でそのピアノの音を「わたし」は聴く……。 『猿蟹合戦』 解説:昔話「猿蟹合戦」のその後の話を描いた短編作品。蟹を始め同志のものが仇を討ったあと彼らが、世の人々からどのように思われ、どのような運命に逢着したかが語られている。

Story
本オーディオブックは、大正六年に刊行された短篇集「羅生門」全十四話と後書を読んだものです。この集に入っている短篇は、「羅生門」「狢」「忠義」を除いて、芥川龍之介が数え年二十五歳の一年間に書かれたものです。そして多くは自分たちが経営した雑誌「新思潮」に一度掲載されたものです。恐らく初めてお聞きになる作品もあるとおもいますが、二十五歳という青年が人の心の奥に潜むものをここまで描ききった作品に出会えることに感動を覚えることと思います。当時の出版では、版を重ねるたびに作者自身が変更を加えることもよくありましたので、みなさんのご存知の内容と微妙に違うところもあるかもしれません。本オーディオブックでオリジナルに近いものをお聞きください。また「羅生門の後に」と題した後書にも思わぬ発見をすることとおもいます。(C)株式会社AIR

Story
日本の文学史でも、指折りの短編小説の名手である芥川龍之介。多くの傑作を残し、その作品は平易な文体ながらも、その秀逸な言葉選びや、深くまで切り込んだ心理描写の生々しさも相俟って、読み手を瞬く間に作品世界に引き込みます。
「羅生門」
ある日の暮方の事である。一人の下人が、羅生門の下で雨が止むのを待っていた。彼は四五日前に主人に暇を出されていた。雨が止んだところで、彼に行き先は無かったのである。羅生門の楼の内には、噂に聞いた通り、幾つかの死骸が無造作に棄てられていたが、その中に蹲っている人間を見た。檜皮色の着物を着た、背の低い、痩やせた、白髪頭の、猿のような老婆であった。その老婆は、女性の死骸の首に両手をかけると、丁度、猿の親が猿の子の虱をとるように、その長い髪の毛を一本ずつ抜きはじめた。その様を見た下人は、悪を憎む心に駆られ、太刀に手をかけながら、大股に老婆の前へ歩みよった。老婆は、一目下人を見ると、まるで弩にでも弾かれたように、飛び上った。下人は、老婆が死骸につまずきながら、慌てふためいて逃げようとする行手を塞いで、こう罵った。
「おのれ、どこへ行く」……
「魔術」
私が友人を介して交際していたインド人のマティラム・ミスラは魔術の大家でもあったが、実際に彼が魔術を使ったところを見たことの無かった私は、約束を取りFailed to add items

Story
「箱を出る顔忘れめや雛二対 蕪村」で書き出されるこの短編は、江戸から明治へと移り変わる時代に、没落していく御用商人一家のそれぞれの思いを描いた物語です。諸大名への御用金を用立てて富を築いたものの、新しい時代に対応できずにいる主人、病気がちな妻、西洋かぶれの長男そしてお転婆な妹、豪華な雛人形を人手に渡すことになり、家族一人一人の想いが露わになります。威厳ある主人の雛への意外な想いが結末に…。 小川真由美の朗読は女ごころを巧みに表現し、切れ味のよさをみせます。 ※本朗読作品中には現代ではふさわしくない表現が含まれていますが、著者が差別助長の意図で使用していないことを考慮し、原作に忠実に再現しています。(C)2007 TOKYO FM & Appleway

そして内供は、人に笑われ、馬鹿にされるこの鼻のことを非常に気にしていた。絶えず他人の鼻を気にしたり、内典外典の中に、自分と同じような鼻のある人物を見出して、せめても幾分の心やりにしようとさえ思った事がある。一方ではまた、積極的に鼻の短くなる方法を試みたが、どれも上手くFailed to add items

The Bobiverse is a different place in the aftermath of the Starfleet War, and the days of the Bobs gathering in one big happy moot are far behind. There’s anti-Bob sentiment on multiple planets, the Skippies playing with an AI time bomb, and multiple Bobs just wanting to get away from it all. But it all pales compared to what Icarus and Daedalus discover on their 26,000-year journey to the center of the galaxy.

Lily and her ex-husband, Ryle, have just settled into a civil coparenting rhythm when she suddenly bumps into her first love, Atlas, again. After nearly two years separated, she is elated that for once, time is on their side, and she immediately says yes when Atlas asks her on a date. But her excitement is quickly hampered by the knowledge that, though they are no longer married, Ryle is still very much a part of her life—and Atlas Corrigan is the one man he will hate being in his ex-wife and daughter’s life.

Because on this ordinary, short, domestic flight, something extraordinary happens. People learn how and when they are going to die. For some, their death is far in the future—age 103!—and they laugh. But for six passengers, their predicted deaths are not far away at all.

Haidt has spent his career speaking wisdom and truth into the most difficult landscapes—communities polarized by politics and religion, campuses battling culture wars, and now the perfect storm contributing to a public health emergency for Gen Z.

Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College―Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is–unless she betrays the man she loves.

Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke, speed through the streets of Manhattan to the Down and Dirty club, where a joyful, boisterous pre-wedding girls’ night out has turned into a murder scene.

The Manipulator. I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will make you hurt, make you cry, make you laugh and sigh. But my words don't affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He's always there, watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow. I didn't mean to fall in love. But now that I have, I can't stay away. I'm mesmerized by her smile, by her eyes, and the way she moves. I'll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is, I'll never let her go.
