Set in Paris and in the enchanting landscapes of Central Asia, this new novel by the author of the international bestsellers The Alchemist and Eleven Minutes follows the journey of a man obsessed with finding the wife who left him without an explanation.

The narrator of The Zahir is a bestselling novelist who lives in Paris and enjoys all the privileges that money and celebrity bring. His wife of ten years, Esther, is facing an existential crisis. When she disappears along with a friend, Mikhail, who may or may not be her lover, the authorities question the narrator. Was Esther kidnapped, killed, or did she simply abandon a marriage that left her unfulfilled? The narrator doesn't have any answers but he has plenty of questions of his own.

Then, one day, Mikhail finds the narrator and promises to take him to his wife. In his attempt to recapture a love lost, the narrator discovers something unexpected about himself.

A Changed Man - audio book - (Unabridged)

A Changed Man - audio book - (Unabridged)A Changed Man - audio book - (Unabridged)


Vincent Nolan, a young neo-Nazi, walks into the Manhattan office of World Brotherhood Watch, a human rights foundation headed by a charismatic Holocaust survivor, Meyer Maslow. Vincent announces that he wants to make a radical change in his life. But what is Maslow to make of this rough-looking stranger who says that his mission is to save guys like him from becoming guys like him?

As he gradually changes, Vincent also transforms those around him; including Maslow; Bonnie Kalen, a devoted believer in Maslow's crusade against intolerance and injustice; and her teenage son, Danny.

Masterfully plotted, darkly comic, A Changed Man illuminates the everyday transactions in our lives, exposing what remains invisible in plain sight. Remarkable for the author's tender sympathy for her characters, A Changed Man poses the essential questions: What constitutes a life worth living? Is it possible to change? The fearless intelligence, wit, and humanity that inform this novel make it Francine Prose's most accomplished yet.

The Magician - Sol Stein

The Magician - audio book - Sol SteinThe Magician - audio book - Sol Stein


"Gardner's expert narration is a great match for this novel straightforward and,
fitting this novel, a bit acerbic. His pacing is excellent, and emotional colorings fit the prose perfectly.

"This deserves to be widely heard." KLIATT

"The Magician is one of those rare books that, once you read it, you will never forget. Gardner's voice and style fit the teenaged navet and bravado that inhabit the book's main characaters, and he paces the story beautifully, particularly the climactic courtroom scenes. " AudioFile

The Magician is the now famous story of two sixteen-year-old antagonists locked in the crucible of their high school which neither can escape.

Ed Japhet gives a skillful performance of magic at the school prom. After the prom, Ed and his girlfriend are beset by Urek, the leader of a school gang that extracts extortion money by "renting" kids their own lockers.

Ed is the only student who refuses to pay extortion money. Urek's fury at Japhet's defiance results in an attempted murder, a criminal trial, and death, with a shocker of an ending.

The book, selected by the Book-of-the-Month Club, sold over a million copies, was widely taught in American schools, and has been published all over the world, in Britain, France, Germany, and as far away as Russia and Japan.

Sol Stein is a prize-winning playwright produced on Broadway, an anthologized poet, the author of nine novels, and an award-winning teacher of writers. He has edited some of the most successful writers of the century and is the author of Stein on Writing and How to Grow a Novel and is the creator of the computer programs WritePro®, FictionMaster®, and FirstAid for Writers®.

Tom Parker, recipient of the Golden Voice award, records a remarkable variety of books while pursuing his love of theater by directing two or three professional stage productions a year in the Washington, D.C., area.
