Gibson, William Tittel: Pattern recognition Varighet: 12 t. 53 min. Lest av: Myra Portice Bokomtale: Cayce Pollard owes her living to her pathological sensitivity to logos. In London to consult for the world's coolest ad agency, she finds herself catapulted, via her addiction to a mysterious body of fragmentary film footage uploaded to the Web in cryptic fragments, into a global quest for its shadow auteur. Jetting between London, New York, Tokyo and Moscow, Cayce becomes involved with an eccentric hacker, a vengeful ad executive, a Tokyo Otaku-coven and a defrocked NSA mathematician. But the closer she gets to elusive Garage Kubrick, the less cool her quest appears. The world is moving in dangerous new directions. And Cayce wearied by flight fear and mirror-world angst, find herself alone, with too many unanswered questions. Originaltittel: Pattern Recognition Forlag: Norsk lyd- og blindeskriftbibliotek, Oslo, 2011 Originalforlag: Penguin, London, 2003 Emner: Spenning Tilvekstnummer:615296 Gibson, William Tittel: Spook country Varighet: 12 t. 28 min. Lest av: Myra Portice Bokomtale: What happens when old spies come out to play one last game? In New York a young Cuban called Tito is passing iPods to a mysterious old man. Such activities do not go unnoticed, however, in these early days of the War on Terror and across the city an ex-military man named Brown is tracking Tito's movements. Meanwhile in LA, journalist Hollis Henry is on the trail of Bobby Chombo, who appears to know too much about military systems for his own good. With Bobby missing and the trail cold, Hollis digs deeper and is drawn into the final moves of a chilling game played out by men with old scores to settle. Forlag: Norsk lyd- og blindeskriftbibliotek, Oslo, 2011 Originalforlag: Penguin, London, 2007 Emner: Spenning Tilvekstnummer:615288 Gibson, William Tittel: Zero History Varighet: 15 t. 43 min. Lest av: Myra Portice 32

Bokomtale: After a gig investigating “locative art” for the “overly wealthy and dangerously curious” Hubertus Bigend, founder of the trend-forecasting firm Blue Ant (Spook Country, 2007), Hollis Henry finds herself once again under Bigend's employ. This time she is hired to discover the identity of the designer of a secret brand of clothing called Gabriel Hounds, whom Bigend hopes to enlist in his bid to get into the design, contracting, and manufacture of U.S. military clothing (and its inevitable spin-off into the mainstream consumer market). Military contracting, according to Bigend, is essentially recession proof. Meanwhile, the translator and cryptologist Milgrim (also returning from Spook Country), a former Ativan addict (now in recovery on Bigend's dime) with “zero history” (being off the grid, he has no credit or address history), is asked to assist Hollis in her investigation. What begins as a seemingly innocent apparel-related project takes on more sinister overtones when the two are followed from London to Paris by a competitor with shady dealings in the arms trade and a personal ax to grind with Milgrim.

De flytter inn i farens toromsleilighet på Åssiden i Drammen. Romanen forteller ikke bare om Norge sett med unge innvandrerøyne fra 70-tallet, men også om fremveksten av det indiske innvandrermiljøet. Dette er en gripende beretning om løsrivelse og tilhørighet, og er en frittstående fortsettelse av Romeo Gills første roman, Haarjet, Forlag: Norsk lyd- og blindeskriftbibliotek, Oslo, 2011 Originalforlag: Oktober, Oslo, 2011 Emner: Innvandrere, Oppvekst Tilvekstnummer:616271 Giordano, Paolo Tittel: Primtallenes ensomhet Oversatt av: Lisbeth Resløkken Varighet: 9 t. 11 min.
