「シグナルとシグナレス」本線の立派な新式信号機のシグナルは、おとなしい軽便鉄道の木製の信号機、シグナレスに想いを寄せ結婚を申し込むが、シグナルに仕える電信柱に身分違いと反対され、なかなか思うに任せない。おまけに風は強いし、雪は降り始めるし、絶望的になったとき、倉庫の屋根が救いの手を差し伸べて……。宮澤賢治のユーモアに溢れた小さな恋物語。「よく効く薬とえらい薬」 母親思いの清夫は今日も森の中にバラの実を取りに行きます。特別に透き通った実を見つけ、持ち帰って母親に飲ませると、母の病気はすっかりよくなってしまいました。その噂を聞いたにせ金使いの大三という男は、自分もその実を食べて病気をなおそうとします。[注]本朗読において、今日の表現基準に照らして不適切と思われる語句や表現がありますが、発表時の時代的背景と文学性を考え合わせ、底本どおりに読んでおります。ご了承ください。(C)アイ文庫

下水川のほとりに住む、ねずみの「クン」は自尊心の旺盛なねずみです。でもその自尊心は、他人をそねむ、ということにばかり向けられていました。クンねずみはいつも、仲間のねずみが、自分よりも難しい言葉を使ったり、自分よりも偉い立場になったりすると、大きなせきばらいで人を威嚇するのでした。ある日クンねずみは鼠会議員のテねずみをそねみ、テねずみの怒りを買ったばかりに、処刑されることに決まって……。ちいさな体とちいさな心を持ったねずみの哀れな生き様を描いた、宮沢賢治の愉快な一編。賢治作品を読み続ける渡部龍朗は、こんなちょっと皮肉でブラックでおかしな作品が実は好き。落語研究会で鍛えたおかしみあふれる朗読で、子どものために留まらず大人の鑑賞に堪える作品となりました。(C)アイ文庫 「ことのは出版オーディオブック作品一覧はhttp://www.kotonoha.co.jpにて」

Story
このオーディオブックが生まれたのは、1枚のSPレコードと出会ったことが、きっかけでした。それは、1931年に録音されたマハトマ・ガンディーの、世界に2つしか残っていない英語のスピーチでした。何とかこのスピーチを日本語で聴きたい、そう思いました。やがて大阪女学院大学の友野先生とゼミの学生達や他の先生方を巻き込んで、ようやくかたちになりました。音源から英語の文章を起こし、さらに翻訳するという作業は、6分程のスピーチとはいえ、大変な手間を要する仕事になりました。日本語訳の朗読は声優の神谷明さんが、協力を申し出て頂けるなど、大勢のみなさまのご協力をいただきました。このオーディオブックには、ガンディーの英語のスピーチと神谷明さんの日本語訳の朗読、それに、このスピーチに関する解説や翻訳に関わった学生達へのインタビューや主導した友野先生のお話等が収められています。まだ一度も日本語に翻訳されていないこのスピーチを、是非聴いてみて下さい。(C)PAMLINK

Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

No one knows about the strange powers she possesses or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen's reservoirs for as long as she can remember. But a secret is like a knot. Sooner or later, it is bound to come undone. When Saeris comes face-to-face with Death himself, she inadvertently reopens a gateway between realms and is transported to a land of ice and snow. The Fae have always been the stuff of myth, of legend, of nightmares… but it turns out they're real.
