Story
拭い去れない過去の罪悪感を背負ったまま、世間の目から隠れるように暮らす“先生”と“私”との交流を通して、人の「こころ」の奥底を、漱石が鋭い洞察と筆力によって描いた不朽の名作。過去に縛られ、悔やみ、激しい葛藤のなかで身動きのとれなくなった“先生”の人生の様はあなたに何を訴えかけるだろうか。人は弱いものなのか…、シンプルでもありまた不可解でもある人の「こころ」のありようを夏目漱石が問いかける。人はどのように救われるのか?(C)青空文庫

Story
長井代助は優秀な成績で大学を卒業しながら、職に就かずに父と兄に生活費を賄われて日々を送っている高等遊民。父からは強く見合いを勧められているが、なぜかその気になれない。一方、学生時代の親友、平岡常次郎は地方の銀行員という職に就いたが、横領問題の責を負い、失職して東京に帰ってくる。仕事に失敗した平岡は結婚生活もうまくいかなくなり、妻の三千代は苦労の日々を送っている。三千代を平岡に紹介したのは代助だった。三年の時を隔てて再開した三人だったが、三千代の窮状を聞くうち、代助は三千代を愛していたことに気付く。しかも、平岡に会わせるずっと以前から……自分から動くことをしなかった代助が、初めて動いたとき、三人の運命が、そして父や兄との関係が、音を立てて変わる!「他人の妻を愛する権利が君にあるか」――漱石前期三部作『三四郎〈さんしろう〉』『それから』『門〈もん〉』の中核をなす、メロドラマのような物語展開のなかに人間の普遍的な本質をえぐる鋭い視線が光る傑作。朗読は、漱石前期三部作に挑戦中の渡部龍朗。大好きな宮沢賢治作品とはまた違う、大人っぽく淡々とした読みで、ドラマチックな長編を飽かせず聞かせます。(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」

「山路を登りながら、こう考えた。智に働けば角が立つ。情に棹させば流される。意地を通せば窮屈だ。とかくに人の世は住みにくい。……」あまりにも有名な一節で始まる、漱石のロマンティシズムの極致を示す名篇。カナダの名ピアニスト、グレン・グールドも愛読していたという漱石の「草枕」 画家の“非人情”紀行は変人美女の登場でどんな展開を見せるのか?漱石ならではのユーモアと芸術論を交えた、じわりと面白くなる奥深い名作を、渡部龍朗が全編朗読! (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
野中宗助とその妻・御米は、崖の下の家にひっそりと暮らす睦まじい夫婦。宗助は京都の大学を出て、今は東京で役所勤めをしているが、弟の小六に馬鹿にされるほど出世欲もなく、弟の学資となるはずだった亡父の遺産を親戚に食い尽くされても強く抗議することもなく、波風の立たない日常をそっと守るように暮らしているのも、過去に犯した事件の影にいまだ怯えているためでもあった。懇意にしていた大家の坂井宅で、その影が現れるかもしれない事態が出来(しゅったい)したとき、宗助は救いを求めて鎌倉へ向かうが、そこに救いはなかった。――「三四郎」「それから」に続く漱石前期三部作の最後を飾る長編。執筆中に胃潰瘍が悪化し、連載終了後に入院することとなった。【朗読者について】 漱石前期三部作に挑戦中の渡部龍朗。ドラマチックな展開をみせた「それから」からさらに深化し、事件らしい事件のない難しい長編作品を、淡々とじっくりと聞かせます。【アイ文庫について】プロによる高品質な文芸朗読作品を制作しているアイ文庫。プロデューサーを務める小説家・音楽家の水城雄のもと、朗読を音声による芸術表現として捉え、演劇的な要素が特徴の朗読で魅せるアーティスト集団・NPO法人現代朗読協会とともに、意欲作の創造に取り組んでいます。☆ことのは出版オーディオブックの情報はhttp://www.kotonoha.co.jpにて

明治後期の東京を舞台に、高等遊民・代助の煩悶を描く
日本文学最高峰の純愛小説
<あらすじ>
長井代助は一軒家を構えて書生の門野を置き、父親の援助で高等遊民として、悠々自適の日々を送っていた。生家が事業で財を成したことに甘えて、代助は卒業後も職に就こうとせず、世間とは距離を置いて暮らしていた。そうした態度を父の得に咎められ、佐川という財閥の令嬢との結婚を勧められるが、代助にはその気がなく、生活態度も一向に改めようとはしない。そして、代助を「代さん」と呼んで憎からず思う兄嫁・梅子の愛情に甘えていた。
一方、代助の同窓生で親友の平岡は、大学を卒業してから銀行に就職し、上方の支店勤務となる。そんなとき、代助の同窓生で平岡と共通の知人だった菅沼が、大学卒業を目前にしてチフスにかかって亡くなり、後には北海道で困窮する父親と妹の三千代だけが残された。三千代を深く愛しながらも、拠る術のない三千代の前途を心配した代助は、銀行勤めの平岡との仲を取り持って、二人を夫婦にしたのだった。だが、三千代は子供の死をきっかけに体調を崩し、歩くこともままならないほどの身体になってしまう。
その後、部下による公金の使い込みに端を発して、平岡は辞職を余儀なくされてしまう。困り果てた平岡は、三千代と共に上京し、代助に就職の斡旋を頼む。三千代の前途を思って自Failed to add items

Story
日露戦争の最中に温泉地を訪れた青年画家を通して、 芸術のあり方を模索した初期の代表作 『草枕』は明治39年(1906年)に発表された熊本県玉名市小天(ルビ:おあま)温泉を舞台にした中編小説であり、『吾輩は猫である』『坊っちゃん』と並ぶ初期の代表作。 「智に働けば角(かど)が立つ。情に棹(さお)させば流される。意地を通せば窮屈だ。兎角(とかく)に人の世は住みにくい。」という書き出しで有名だが、劇的な物語の展開があるわけではない。 美とは何か、憐れとは何か―― 主人公である青年画家が東京からの旅の途中、滞在した温泉宿で出会った謎めいた女性・那美に出会い、謎めいた彼女の魅力や、戦争によって揺れていく人の暮しを描写していく。 世塵から離れた風光明媚な温泉地を舞台に、西欧文明への批判を込めて、漱石自身の芸術論を主人公の長い独白として織り交ぜていると言われる。豊かな語彙と文章で、絵画的に詩情あふれる世界を落ち着いた朗読で収録している。

Hillbilly Elegy is a passionate and personal analysis of a culture in crisis - that of white working-class Americans. The decline of this group, a demographic of our country that has been slowly disintegrating over 40 years, has been reported on with growing frequency and alarm but has never before been written about as searingly from the inside. J. D. Vance tells the true story of what a social, regional, and class decline feels like when you were born with it hung around your neck.
