Audiobooks – Ana’s Story (Free Excerpt)

Author: Jenna Bush

Genre: Kids & Young Adults

Released: Oct. 02, 2007

iTunes Description:
This is a free excerpt from Ana’s Story. She’s 17. She’s been abused. She has a child. And she’s HIV-positive. She is Ana, and this is her story. It begins the day she is born infected with HIV, transmitted from her young mother. Now she barely remembers her mama, who died when Ana was only three. From then on, Ana’s childhood becomes a blur of faint memories and secrets: secrets about her illness and about the abuse she endures. Ana’s journey is a long one. Shuffled from home to home, she rarely finds safety or live. And then she meets a boy. Berto is one of the only people Ana trusts with all her secrets. That trust puts Ana on a path to breaking the silence that has harmed her, and it leads her to new beginnings, new sorrows, and new hope. Jenna Bush has written a powerful narrative nonfiction account of a girl who struggles to break free from a vicious cycle of abuse, poverty, and illness. Based on Jenna’s work with UNICEF and inspired by the framework of one girl’s life, it is also the story of many children around the world who are marginalized and excluded from basic care, support, and education. Resources included on this audiobook explain how you can make a different to children in need, and how you can protect yourself and others. A portion of the proceeds from this book will benefit the US fund for UNICEF.

Author: Rory Freedman & Kim Barnouin

Genre: Self Development

iTunes Description:
Not your typical boring diet book, this is a tart-tongued, no-holds-barred wakeup call to all women who want to be thin. With such blunt advice as, “Soda is liquid Satan” and “You are a total moron if you think the Atkins Diet will make you thin,” it’s a rallying cry for all savvy women to start eating healthy and looking radiant. Unlike standard diet books, it actually makes the reader laugh out loud with its truthful, smart-mouthed revelations. Behind all the attitude, however, there’s solid guidance. Skinny Bitch espouses a healthful lifestyle that promotes whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, and encourages women to get excited about feeling “clean and pure and energized.”

Audiobooks – Ysrael: a Short Story from Drown (Unabridged)

Author: Junot Diaz

Genre: Fiction

Released: Oct. 02, 2007

iTunes Description:
This is “Ysrael”, a story from Junot Diaz’s Drown. With 10 stories that move from the barrios of the Dominican Republic to the struggling urban communities of New Jersey, Diaz makes a remarkable debut. His work is unflinching and strong, and his stories crackle with an electric sense of discovery as he evokes a world in which fathers are gone, mothers fight with grim determination for their families and themselves, and the next generation inherits the casual cruelty, devastating ambivalence, and knowing humor of lives circumscribed by poverty and uncertainty. In Drown, Diaz has harnessed the rhythms of anger and release, frustration and joy, to indelible effect.

iTunes Description:
Our song this week is the title track from the new album from Puerto Rico’s Black Guayaba. Depending which side of the fence you’re on, it’s either a modern update of a classic rock power ballad, or a contemporary rock tune with some old-school flavor. Strongly melodic, with guitars that soothe more than rage, but driven by a hands-in-the-air, sweeping quality that aims to fill in some arena space, No Hay Espacio is our Concion de la Semana.
