Week 2 -- The act of betrayal is a weapon in itself, regardless of whether the traitor brings physical harm or “only” the psychological pain of breaking trust. Buckle up for a pair of such experiences this week with a play from William Shakespeare and a novel written in the second person. Both pull listeners right into the encounter with a traitor.

FREE -- Othello -- Wm Shakespeare/ E McGregor, et al -- 2.6 hrs -- classic

Shakespeare’s Othello is one of his finest and most famous tragedies. This highly acclaimed performance, which ran between November 2007 and February 2008 at the Donmar Warehouse in London, features Chiwetel Ejiofor as the Moor Othello, Ewan McGregor as the scheming Iago, and Kelly Reilly as the gentle Desdemona. This recording features music written specifically for the stage production which enjoyed huge success – each performance was a sell-out.

FREE -- You -- Charles Benoit/ D Baker -- 3.9 hrs -- thriller

Available in the US and Canada ONLY

Charles Benoit has created a stunner of a debut novel, one of the most anticipated titles of the fall season. Told entirely in the second person, the story quickly immerses us in the world of bright, disaffected Kyle Chase, who once showed great potential but by tenth grade has become a genuine slacker. With uncanny insight, crafting what can only be called YA Noir, Benoit takes us deep inside the mind of a young man on a collision course with catastrophe. Of the print version, Publisher's Weekly said in a starred review: “Disturbing content blends with skillful, fast-paced writing, adding a thriller spin to the novel's vicious realism." Now David Baker – narrator of our highly acclaimed recording of Graceling – offers a reading that captures and builds the sense of loss and dread that makes this novel both disturbing and irresistible.

Anyone--

Is a tubemonkey considered a type of stuffed monkey, or is there some distinction between the two?

I think they have to be made out of socks (tube). The heel is usually where the mouth is sewn. I'm wondering why silverraven has so many!! I've never had one in my life!

Sync Audio & Overdrive is acting up this morning. Last week I downloaded the odm files you get, and they worked the next morning when I went to download the albums. Yesterday I did the same, but this morning, overdrive stating that it can't be downloaded, had to redownload the odm files before Overdrive downloaded the albums

When my grandmother was alive she made them for each of her grandchildren, and her great-grandchildren. I've actually got my kids put up from her. When I saw them out in the stores a couple years ago I picked a couple of them up. I think I picked up the last one at Tractor Supply after Christmas for a couple bucks. It will go on my Christmas tree. One is a dog toy.
I've still got the basket of marbles I would play with at my other grandmother's house.
So I'm either nostalgic, or a hoarder. Take your pick!
Or maybe in the case of the sock monkeys, a zoo keeper?

Such a lovely family. Would hate to break them up.

Not a stuffed monkey. We're primates of the Hominidae family (great apes) and belong to the Hominini tribe (humans, chimps, sock monkeys). Sock monkeys are members of the genus Soxinae and tubemonkeys belong to the species tubonicus.

Bottom line, humans are Homo sapiens and tubemonkeys are Soxinae tubonicus.

Hope that clears things up

Thanks for the education, tubemonkey. I had no idea.
