Ornaments in Jade by Arthur Machen audiobook. Genre: fantasy Step into Arthur Machen’s Ornaments in Jade and let a master of the uncanny guide you through a collection of luminous essays, sketches and short meditations where beauty and mystery meet. Machen’s prose is ornate yet intimate—here are vignettes of memory and art, glimpses of the ancient and the otherworldly woven into reflections on everyday life, nature and the small objects that hold vast meanings. As an audiobook, these pieces come alive: the cadence of his sentences becomes a spell, the quiet reveal of the strange unfolding like a landscape seen at dusk. Listeners will find themselves transported from London parlors to misted Welsh lanes, pausing to savor Machen’s fascination with the past, the folkloric, and the subtle shudder of the supernatural. Whether you crave evocative literary atmosphere, meditative philosophy of beauty, or gentle brushstrokes of the weird, Ornaments in Jade offers a richly textured listening experience—an invitation to linger on language and to discover the unexpected wonders hiding in ordinary things.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
