Roald Dahl: The Giraffe and the Pelly and Me read by Hugh Laurie

Learn the secrets to excelling at job interviews, directly from top interviewers and recruiters. You can't prepare an answer for every interview question. So, of the thousands of questions a potential employer might ask, which ones will they ask? And what should you say? After extensive research among hundreds of interviewers and thousands of interviewees, finally here's the book that will give you the answer. 101 JOB INTERVIEW QUESTIONS YOU'LL NEVER FEAR AGAIN is based on direct input from top interviewers. It offers powerful preparation techniques, the lowdown on how to answer the most common questions and - above all - how to adopt a winning mindset at interviews, one that will help you stand out from the pack and land the job. From classic questions like "Tell me about yourself" and "What are your greatest weaknesses?" to puzzlers like "Sell me this pen" and "How many traffic lights are there in New York?," James Reed reveals what interviewers are really asking and gives you the best possible answers.

Can You Learn to Be Lucky? by Karla Starr, read by Arielle Siegel

The love between a daughter and her mother&mdash;and the dark secrets they keep from each other&mdash;are at the heart of this wildly imaginative novel that combines elements of The Handmaid&rsquo;s Tale, Stranger Things, and Twin Peaks. An isolated town. The remains of a mysterious cult. And a woman who disappears.&#160; It&rsquo;s 1985. Pony Darlene Fontaine has lived all her fifteen years in &ldquo;the territory,&rdquo; a settlement founded decades ago by a charismatic cult leader. In this strange town run on a sinister economic resource, the women crimp their hair and wear shoulder pads, and the teenagers listen to Nazareth and Whitesnake on their Walkmans. Pony&rsquo;s family lives in the bungalow at the farthest edge of town, where the territory borders the rest of the wider world&mdash;a place none of the townspeople have ever been. Except for Billie Jean Fontaine, Pony&rsquo;s mother. When Billie Jean arrived in the territory seventeen years prior&mdash;falling from the open door of a stolen car&mdash;the residents took her in and made her one of their own. She was the first outsider they had ever laid eyes on. Pony adores and idolizes her mother, but like everyone else in the territory she is mystified by her. Billie Jean refuses to describe the world she came from. One night, Billie Jean grabs her truck keys, bolts barefoot into the cold October darkness&mdash;and vanishes. Beautiful, beloved, and secretive, Billie Jean was the first person to be welcomed into the territory. Now, with a frantic search under way for her missing mother, Pony fears: Will she be the first person to leave it too? Told from the three unforgettable perspectives of a daughter, a killer dog, and a teenage boy named Supernatural, this novel is startling in its humor and wrenching in its wisdom about the powers, limits, and dangers of love. Heartbreaker is an electrifying page-turner about a woman reinventing herself in order to survive&mdash;and a daughter who must race against the clock to untangle the mysteries left in her mother&rsquo;s wake. Advance praise for Heartbreaker &ldquo;A dark star of a book, glittering with mordant humor and astonishing, seductive strangeness and grace. I am a giant fan of Claudia Dey&rsquo;s wild brain.&rdquo;&mdash;Lauren Groff, author of&#160;Fates and Furies &ldquo;Heartbreaker&#160;gave me chills all the way through. . . . I floated in the perfection of its ending. I loved this novel&rsquo;s shining sensitivity. I loved its every page.&rdquo;&mdash;Sheila Heti, author of&#160;Motherhood&#160;and&#160;How Should a Person Be?

'I have written a blasphemous book', said Melville when his novel was first published in 1851, 'and I feel as spotless as the lamb'. Deeply subversive, in almost every way imaginable, Moby-Dick is a virtual, alternative bible - and as such, ripe for reinterpretation in this new world of new media. Out of Dominion was born its bastard child - or perhaps its immaculate conception - the Moby-Dick Big Read: an online version of Melville's magisterial tome: each of its 135 chapters read out aloud, by a mixture of the celebrated and the unknown, to be broadcast online, one new chapter each day, in a sequence of 135 downloads, publicly and freely accessible.

Starting 16 September 2012!
