This poem, In the Eyes of Laura Mars, is a poem about a girl you've always been infatuated with, and the qualities she beholds. All in beauty, elegance, and poise. The woman you would want to partner with, or would want to marry.

The powerful, long-repressed classic of Dallas history that examines the violent and suppressed history of race and racism in the city. Written by longtime Dallas political journalist Jim Schutze, formerly of the Dallas Times Herald and Dallas Observer and currently columnist at D Magazine, The Accommodation follows the story of Dallas from slavery through the civil rights movement and the city’s desegregation efforts in the 1950s and ‘60s.

Kate Chopin's The Story of an Hour is a classic example that some short stories can say all they need to do in just a short time. This story remains tantalizingly ambiguous, perhaps because so little is said, and so much merely hinted at. 

The story is about a 25-year-old Harvard student who follows a "clean" life. He marries a 40-year-old clean Southern woman and the two try very hard to have a baby. Eventually, both become disenchanted with each other, and the wife's girlfriend moves in to live with her. 

 What is worse: capital punishment or life in prison? You be the Judge. 

"Three-Day Blow'' is a short story that became a chapter from In Our Time. Jake (Hemingway's alter ego) hikes to his friend Bill's house where they spend the morning talking and drinking. The conversation is mostly chit-chat until the liquor loosens them up enough to discuss Jakes's breakup with Marjorie.

As I listened to this, I couldn't help but compare Buggs and Ad to George and Lennie in Steinbeck's Mice and Men. Buggs protects Ad as George protected Lennie. Ad, though diminutive in size, as a former professional boxer could be as dangerous as Lennie when he had a crazy spell. Hemmingway portrays Buggs as the true leader of the group, highly intelligent, articulate, and gentle to his companion Ad while leading Ad to believe he is in charge.

 Big Two-Hearted River features a single protagonist, Hemingway's recurrent autobiographical character Nick Adams, whose speaking voice is heard just three times. Hemingway explores the destructive qualities of war,  but he also creates a great fishing story. 

For 135 years, the province of Xessus has been subject to a repressive regime, Riadsala’s Mercy. Xessans are not allowed to travel; they cannot learn history, geography, reading, writing, or how to fight. The best and bravest boys are taken for the king’s army, never to return. Laws are enforced by the magistrate, Xela.

 Mike Lawrence returns to the stage with more stories of triumph and stunted growth. 

 In his theatrical debut, comedian Mike Birbiglia takes the audience on a hysterically funny and intensely personal journey through his struggles with sleepwalking and his reluctance to confront his fears of love, honesty, and growing up. Sleepwalk with Me is the rare collision of comedy and theatre that touches your funny bone and tickles your heart. 

In his debut album, Mike Lawrence embraces his “Nerd Troubles” and a look that is only rivaled by a bearded homeless man. In hilarious, cringeworthy detail, he recounts his days as a McDonald’s employee, his extensive “luck” with the ladies, and a compelling campaign for Batman as the next Republican Presidential Candidate. Sadamatium shows Lawrence’s uncensored and unique style which has established him as one of the freshest voices in the NYC standup scene. 

 Birbiglia, one of the nation's most beloved comedians, returns with his second album, this time a collection of his best "My Secret Public Journal" entries. With his unique, lowkey nice guy style and self-effacing jokes, he has earned a rabid fan following and his Comedy Central debut Two Drink Mike has sold well over 25,000 copies. 

 Birbiglia is one of the nation's most beloved comedians and one of the fastest emerging headliners packing clubs from coast to coast.

Two Drink Mike is even funnier and will be his breakout hit.

 One of the most iconic TV series ever was Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone, which ran for five seasons on CBS from 1959 to 1964. This audiobook contains four short stories that inspired four episodes of The Twilight Zone: "The Bus Conductor" by E.F. Benson; "Elegy" by Charles Beaumont; "Time Enough at Last'' by Lynn Venable; and ''An Occurrence At Owl Creek Bridge'' by Ambrose Bierce. Read by award-winning narrator Mike Vendetti, one can understand why Searling was inspired by these short stories. 

 Imagine if you will a three-year journey to outer space and back, drinking distilled water, breathing filtered air, and synthetic food. You can imagine the anticipation of returning to Earth, and then discovering you are allergic to everything on Earth from women to the air you breathe. This is the story of four aging astronauts, able only to look at Earth from their spaceship or venture out to water the geraniums wearing a spacesuit. 

"Just room for one inside, sir," isn't quite as bone-chilling as hearing "room for one more, honey" in one of the Twilight Zone's most popular episodes, "Twenty Two." The Rod Serling masterpiece was inspired by E.F. Benson's "The Bus-Conductor". A ghost bears the chilling news instead of a recurring dream in Benson's chiller. 

Christmas just isn't the same without this poem which is why Monkeynut Audiobooks have brought together the unforgettable voice of Mike Read, the musical genius of film composer Andrew Stamp, and leading audiobook producer Elliott Frisby to create this full orchestral version of the famous poem by Clement Clarke Moore.

Dr. Sergei Karlovich - code-named Seagull - is one of the most brilliant, powerful, and dangerous of Russian operatives.

Should Seagull succeed, it could place the world in jeopardy of falling under Rus­sian global dominance.
