The Great Gatsby (1925) By F. Scott Fitzgerald | Full Audiobook Ft. Pouring Rain Description: The Great Gatsby is now in the public domain within the United States and most other countries. It was released on 17th January 2021 as a Project Gutenberg E-Text Edition. The Great Gatsby is F. Scott Fitzgerald's brilliant fable of the hedonistic excess and tragic reality of the "roaring twenties” in America. It is considered by critics as potentially one of the greatest novels ever written and has become a staple in the English curriculum in schools across the globe. Young, handsome and fabulously rich, Jay Gatsby is the bright star of the Jazz Age - writer Nick Carraway is drawn into the decadent orbit of his Long Island mansion, where the party never seems to end. He first met his extravagant neighbour in the summer of 1922 when he moved to West Egg village who had a rumoured past and a passion for throwing parties but not participating in them. Nick comes to find himself absorbed by the mystery of Gatsby's origins and desires. Fitzgerald brilliantly captures both the disillusionment of post-war America and the moral failure of a society obsessed with wealth and status. In chronicling Gatsby's tragic pursuit of his dream, Fitzgerald re-creates the universal conflict between illusion and reality. About the Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald, in full Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald, was born September 24, 1896 in St. Paul, Minnesota, U.S. and died December 21, 1940 in Hollywood, California. Fitzgerald attended Princeton University, joined the United States Army during World War I, and published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920. Like Jay Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) has acquired a mythical status in American literary history, and his masterwork The Great Gatsby is considered by many to be the 'great American novel’. Fitzgerald's other masterpieces include The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender Is the Night and died at the age of forty-four while working on The Last Tycoon. Fitzgerald was the only son of an unsuccessful, aristocratic father and an energetic, provincial mother. Half the time he thought of himself as the heir of his family’s tradition, named after his distant cousin, Francis Scott Key, authoring in 1814 the lyrics for the American national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner" and half the time as “straight 1850 famine Irish”. As a result he had typically ambivalent feelings about American life, which seemed to him at once vulgar and dazzlingly promising. In 1920 he married Zelda Sayre, dubbed 'the first American Flapper’, a subculture of young western woman known for wearing short dresses and bobbed hair and for embracing freedom from traditional societal constraints. She is said to be an inspiration for the character Daisy in The Great Gatsby. Died doing the thing he loves, Fitzgerald left an indelible impact in the world of writing and literature with his use of vivid imagery and metaphors to provide a visual picture of his characters and settings to incorporate deeper meaning beyond just physical appearance. =========================== Credits: Text - F.

Chapter 7 of The Great Gatsby (1925) By F. Scott Fitzgerald | Featuring Pouring Rain Description: The Great Gatsby is now in the public domain within the United States and most other countries. It was released on 17th January 2021 as a Project Gutenberg E-Text Edition. The Great Gatsby is F. Scott Fitzgerald's brilliant fable of the hedonistic excess and tragic reality of the "roaring twenties” in America. It is considered by critics as potentially one of the greatest novels ever written and has become a staple in the English curriculum in schools across the globe. Young, handsome and fabulously rich, Jay Gatsby is the bright star of the Jazz Age - writer Nick Carraway is drawn into the decadent orbit of his Long Island mansion, where the party never seems to end. He first met his extravagant neighbour in the summer of 1922 when he moved to West Egg village who had a rumoured past and a passion for throwing parties but not participating in them. Nick comes to find himself absorbed by the mystery of Gatsby's origins and desires. Fitzgerald brilliantly captures both the disillusionment of post-war America and the moral failure of a society obsessed with wealth and status. In chronicling Gatsby's tragic pursuit of his dream, Fitzgerald re-creates the universal conflict between illusion and reality. About the Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald, in full Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald, was born September 24, 1896 in St. Paul, Minnesota, U.S. and died December 21, 1940 in Hollywood, California. Fitzgerald attended Princeton University, joined the United States Army during World War I, and published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920. Like Jay Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) has acquired a mythical status in American literary history, and his masterwork The Great Gatsby is considered by many to be the 'great American novel’. Fitzgerald's other masterpieces include The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender Is the Night and died at the age of forty-four while working on The Last Tycoon. Fitzgerald was the only son of an unsuccessful, aristocratic father and an energetic, provincial mother. Half the time he thought of himself as the heir of his family’s tradition, named after his distant cousin, Francis Scott Key, authoring in 1814 the lyrics for the American national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner" and half the time as “straight 1850 famine Irish”. As a result he had typically ambivalent feelings about American life, which seemed to him at once vulgar and dazzlingly promising. In 1920 he married Zelda Sayre, dubbed 'the first American Flapper’, a subculture of young western woman known for wearing short dresses and bobbed hair and for embracing freedom from traditional societal constraints. She is said to be an inspiration for the character Daisy in The Great Gatsby. Died doing the thing he loves, Fitzgerald left an indelible impact in the world of writing and literature with his use of vivid imagery and metaphors to provide a visual picture of his characters and settings to incorporate deeper meaning beyond just physical appearance. =========================== Credits: Text - F.

Chapter 2 of The Great Gatsby (1925) By F. Scott Fitzgerald | Featuring Pouring Rain Description: The Great Gatsby is now in the public domain within the United States and most other countries. It was released on 17th January 2021as a Project Gutenberg E-Text Edition. The Great Gatsby is F. Scott Fitzgerald's brilliant fable of the hedonistic excess and tragic reality of the "roaring twenties” in America. It is considered by critics as potentially one of the greatest novels ever written and has become a staple in the English curriculum in schools across the globe. Young, handsome and fabulously rich, Jay Gatsby is the bright star of the Jazz Age - writer Nick Carraway is drawn into the decadent orbit of his Long Island mansion, where the party never seems to end. He first met his extravagant neighbour in the summer of 1922 when he moved to West Egg village who had a rumoured past and a passion for throwing parties but not participating in them. Nick comes to find himself absorbed by the mystery of Gatsby's origins and desires. Fitzgerald brilliantly captures both the disillusionment of post-war America and the moral failure of a society obsessed with wealth and status. In chronicling Gatsby's tragic pursuit of his dream, Fitzgerald re-creates the universal conflict between illusion and reality. About the Author: F. Scott Fitzgerald, in full Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald, was born September 24, 1896 in St. Paul, Minnesota, U.S. and died December 21, 1940 in Hollywood, California. Fitzgerald attended Princeton University, joined the United States Army during World War I, and published his first novel, This Side of Paradise, in 1920. Like Jay Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896-1940) has acquired a mythical status in American literary history, and his masterwork The Great Gatsby is considered by many to be the 'great American novel’. Fitzgerald's other masterpieces include The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender Is the Night and died at the age of forty-four while working on The Last Tycoon. Fitzgerald was the only son of an unsuccessful, aristocratic father and an energetic, provincial mother. Half the time he thought of himself as the heir of his family’s tradition, named after his distant cousin, Francis Scott Key, authoring in 1814 the lyrics for the American national anthem "The Star-Spangled Banner" and half the time as “straight 1850 famine Irish”. As a result he had typically ambivalent feelings about American life, which seemed to him at once vulgar and dazzlingly promising. In 1920 he married Zelda Sayre, dubbed 'the first American Flapper’, a subculture of young western woman known for wearing short dresses and bobbed hair and for embracing freedom from traditional societal constraints. She is said to be an inspiration for the character Daisy in The Great Gatsby. Died doing the thing he loves, Fitzgerald left an indelible impact in the world of writing and literature with his use of vivid imagery and metaphors to provide a visual picture of his characters and settings to incorporate deeper meaning beyond just physical appearance. =========================== Credits: Text - F.

Volume 1 of The Warrior Of The Light (1997) by Paulo Coehlo | Featuring a Crackling Fire Description: This Book is published by Historical Books Limited (www.publicdomain.org.uk) as a Public Domain Book. Coelho has long been a supporter of illegal downloads of his works, ever since a pirated edition of The Alchemist was posted in 1999. Paulo Coehlo was born on the 24th of August 1947 in Rio de Janeiro and is a Brazilian novelist. Since The Alchemist, he has published 30 more novels including The Fifth Mountain, Love Letters from a Prophet, Fathers Sons and Grandsons and The Witch of Portobello. After quitting law school to fulfill his passions instead, Paulo worked as an actor journalist and theatre director before leaving his lucrative career as a songwriter to pursue his writing full-time. While trying to overcome his procrastination about launching his writing career, Coelho decided, "If I see a white feather today, that is a sign that God is giving me that I have to write a new book." Seeing one in the window of a shop, he began writing that day! In 1986, Coelho walked the 500-plus mile Road of Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain. While on this journey, Paulo had a spiritual awakening, which he described autobiographically in The Pilgrimage. His works have been published across 170 countries, in eighty-three languages and have sold over 320 million copies. On 22nd December 2016, Coelho was declared as number 2 of the top 200 most influential contemporary authors. The Warrior of the Light, originally published in 1997, in Portuguese, highlights the global themes ingrained in all our lives - choices, obligations, victories, defeats; it contains an abundance of short stories and fables which invite readers to dive into the depths of themselves whilst truly embodying life to its fullest and facing head on whatever that may include. Here, Coehlo utilises various cultures and sources to present his message; from the Art of War to the Holy Bible, he accentuates themes of compassion, morality, utilitarianism and fulfilling one’s destiny. He crafts a way of life for the warrior of light; providing an honest, humble path to the acknowledgment of the world’s spiritual elements whilst simultaneously working through the anxiety, discouragement and fear one may experience. The beginning and end of this novel sets a clear and continuous storyline whereby a mysterious woman explains the rules for a “warrior of the light” to a man on a journey who is writing them down, therefore the rest of this work is depicts the results of that transaction. =========================== Credits: Text - Paulo Coelho Audio Narration - Delilah Jones - https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 Visual Photography and Editing - Delilah Jones & Aqil Shamshudin Produced by The Infinite Library =========================== ✦ If you should require a specific book or text to be narrated you can request this via our narrators Fiver or Upwork accounts as follows: ⍟ https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 ⍟ https://www.fiverr.com/delilahjones/record-a-youthful-genuine-british-or-american-female-voice General Disclaimer: This recording is a production of The Infinite Library for the purpose of research and study.

Chapter 2: Effect of Thought on Circumstances In this chapter, we learn how one’s inner thoughts and emotions affect the outer conditions of our lives. However, as this relationship is greatly influenced by external factors, our inward and outward states may not always reflect each other. The strongest opposite force to external factors on one’s circumstances is their thoughts, and subsequent feelings springing from said thoughts. When one practices self-purification of thought and self-control through prioritising constructive, goal-orientated and future-focused thoughts, one can easily remedy one’s faults and find their circumstances changing as a result. Since we all have the ability to alter our circumstances through simple discipline, it is made clear that fixating on the negatives of blame, shame and complaining draws even more of those aspects into your life, further poisoning our thoughts. ‘As long as a man believes he is a creature of external conditions he will be buffeted by those conditions’ To avoid this we must take and accept more responsibility in life; realising only a positive shift directly effects himself, others, and his life and circumstances towards better, and in doing so we prove to ourselves that we are the makers of our own lives and destinies. =========================== Credits: Text - James Allen Audio Narration - Delilah Jones - https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelanc...

Chapter 1: Thought & Character This chapter’s main idea is that ‘We are what We Think’. All of us literally build up or destroy ourselves, our character, through the sheer force of our thoughts. This can only go either one of two ways, giving us vast power or vast problems. Therefore, a man must watch, control and alter his thoughts, by application, self-analysis and experience, in order to reach into his soul and connect with the essence of his being. Through awareness and adaptation of all our thoughts, we can change our character and willingly shape the trajectory of our life. =========================== Credits: Text - James Allen Audio Narration - Delilah Jones - https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 Visual Photography and Editing - Delilah Jones & Aqil Shamshudin Produced by The Infinite Library =========================== ✦ If you should require a specific book or text to be narrated you can request this via our narrators Fiver or Upwork accounts as follows: ⍟ https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 ⍟ https://www.fiverr.com/delilahjones/record-a-youthful-genuine-british-or-american-female-voice General Disclaimer: This recording is a production of The Infinite Library for the purpose of research and study.

Chapter 4: Thought and Purpose The central point of this chapter is one must obtain and maintain a greater purpose in life. Those without a higher ambition or mission to execute, soon find they have an abundance of unregimented and profitless time available to them, where weak thoughts of doubt, worry and problems are left to grow rampant in one’s mind.Over time, these uncontrolled pessimistic thoughts become the enemies of achievement, distracting you from focusing on perfecting your worldly duty. Actively keeping one’s journey clear of despondency and sharpening the pathways to success, builds resilience and resolution in the process. This develops strength via effort and practice, even in the weakest, most dejected soul; they can be made strong by patient training and exercising themselves in ways of right thinking. =========================== Credits: Text - James Allen Audio Narration - Delilah Jones - https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 Visual Photography and Editing - Delilah Jones & Aqil Shamshudin Produced by The Infinite Library =========================== ✦ If you should require a specific book or text to be narrated you can request this via our narrators Fiver or Upwork accounts as follows: ⍟ https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 ⍟ https://www.fiverr.com/delilahjones/record-a-youthful-genuine-british-or-american-female-voice General Disclaimer: This recording is a production of The Infinite Library for the purpose of research and study.

Chapter 3: Effect of Thought on Health and the Body The author emphasises here that the mind feeds the body, the body being a loyal servant to the will of the mind. ‘Good thoughts lead to healthy habits’ meaning once we start seriously considering beneficial alterations we could make in our lives, the more likely we are to actualise these positive habits into daily routines. With consistency, this produces physical effects on our body, and as long as our thoughts and plans stay clear and progressive, they will produce good effects on one’s health. Positively focused thoughts, build up mind and then the body, making its graceful, yet strong, beautiful yet resilient. But, falling prey to our negative, unlawful thoughts causes the body to sink into disease and decay, therefore bringing forth bad effects. While we might think constant analysis of risks keeps us safer, always thinking about what could go wrong can reproduce itself as a self-fulfilling prophecy. So, man must aim to keep his thoughts of fear, anxiety and uncertainty at bay for the sake of his state of mind and his subsequent future bodily state. In this way, thought is the fountain of vitality and action. =========================== Credits: Text - James Allen Audio Narration - Delilah Jones - https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 Visual Photography and Editing - Delilah Jones & Aqil Shamshudin Produced by The Infinite Library =========================== ✦ If you should require a specific book or text to be narrated you can request this via our narrators Fiver or Upwork accounts as follows: ⍟ https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 ⍟ https://www.fiverr.com/delilahjones/record-a-youthful-genuine-british-or-american-female-voice General Disclaimer: This recording is a production of The Infinite Library for the purpose of research and study.

Chapter 6: Visions and Ideals Here, Allen acknowledges that everyone’s dreams and visions underpin their reality. Because you will always naturally gravitate towards that which you love most, in secret or out loud, what you desire and aspire to, you will eventually attain and forge into being. Uncongenial circumstances can only be overcome by first perceiving and then continually striving towards an ideal concept. In this way, one’s worldly accomplishments, material and intellectual possessions, and spiritual gifts or powers are simply the fruits of one’s effort. =========================== Credits: Text - James Allen Audio Narration - Delilah Jones - https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 Visual Photography and Editing - Delilah Jones & Aqil Shamshudin Produced by The Infinite Library =========================== ✦ If you should require a specific book or text to be narrated you can request this via our narrators Fiver or Upwork accounts as follows: ⍟ https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 ⍟ https://www.fiverr.com/delilahjones/record-a-youthful-genuine-british-or-american-female-voice General Disclaimer: This recording is a production of The Infinite Library for the purpose of research and study.

Chapter 5: The Thought-Factor in Achievement Chapter 5 highlights all of life’s achievements, or lack thereof, are a direct consequence of his thoughts. Before a man can achieve anything, he has to rise above simple indulgence and if he fails to control his base desires, he limits the greatness of his life, being equally unable to control affairs and to adopt serious responsibilities. Overall, the high achiever has to be willing to sacrifice much, thus, the most imperative element of said achievement is an ampleness of hard work. =========================== Credits: Text - James Allen Audio Narration - Delilah Jones - https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 Visual Photography and Editing - Delilah Jones & Aqil Shamshudin Produced by The Infinite Library =========================== ✦ If you should require a specific book or text to be narrated you can request this via our narrators Fiver or Upwork accounts as follows: ⍟ https://www.upwork.com/en-gb/freelancers/~01ae69615503fe8735 ⍟ https://www.fiverr.com/delilahjones/record-a-youthful-genuine-british-or-american-female-voice General Disclaimer: This recording is a production of The Infinite Library for the purpose of research and study.
